I mean, yeah, an extremely simple video card is maybe. But that little birdy is no Quake at 720p running on a gpu build by a gamedev. I don’t see how it even compares. If I bake a pie which turns out great I can be pretty excited about it, even though it’s non trivial to an actual patisserie, to me as a web dev that pie was a pretty cool project.
Quake, like the game from the 90’s?
At a mindblowing 60 fps.
Ok just read the article, that’s a pretty cool project by a single engineer.
Building even an extremely simple video output card is really non trivial. Someone did it on a breadboard here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=l7rce6IQDWs

I think you’re understanding “non-trivial” to mean the opposite of what it actually is
Inconceivable!
That’s sorta what I implied, I was just enhancing your sentiment.
I love that video series!
Well, it looks like my 3D fix voodoo cards from the 90’s… so seems ok
Those would go great with my pentium d!
Or my PowerPC Quadra 950! (Which had a Voodoo 2 card, lol)
*shrug* It’s a start.
“Modern Windows software” sold it for me.
It’s almost modern time right now!
