It's the other way around. GLES Versions become a subset of later OpenGL Versions.

I see UDP more like a low level interface allowing you to build your own on top. Where you decide what packages need to be revived 100% and which one can be dropped. Basically the foundation of your very own TCP with hookers and blackjack.

Core1 would send a invalidation to get exclusive (write) access to that cache line. This would be routed to Core2. Which removes the cache line from its cache.

If core2 now accesses that cache line again, it would not find it in its L1, or L2, and at L3 there is the cacheline directory routing the request to core1.

It's also about prefetchability of the next task.

If all cores e.g. do an atomic add on a single counter variable to get their next task-id just in time, then there is no chance for the cores to do any reasonable prefetching. Because most of the time another core will come in and write to this variable that all prefetching is based on. With short tasks, you can end up with a full pipeline stall each time a new task is started.

"We are sorry to inform you, but a big multi billion dollar company has selected a snipped of your video/music/name and registered it within our copyright/trademark system. Therefor we will automatically delete all of your content and sue you for one hundred million dollars in damages on their behalf!"

Dang sounds like a copyright/trademark troll to me! Really disappointed that they allow something like that here.

Edit: I only know graham crackers?! But I guess that's not it?

Yes! Nobody can just claim such terrible acts from a state that openly murders political opponents and currently is carrying out an invasion of a peaceful country.

Aliens landed on this planet, found out about the date format MM/DD/YYYY, and left in a hurry. They are currently preparing a gamma ray burst out of pure compassion and pity but also a hint of disgust!

And just consider how much money flows for "micro" transactions. There is plenty of "players" willing to pay money for hardware cheats.
