Reading on Wikipedia, manufacturing x86 chips requires a license from Intel for more advanced features, the 64-bit variant of x86 also requires a license from AMD. Is this really possible?

      Comment is deleted, but I’d bet it was something along the lines of “why don’t you google it, moron?!” which I always find funny on a text-based social media platform. The whole fucking point of this place is to discuss things.

        I’m sure no one expects you to know anything. Certainly I don’t know why you can click on the community if you’re so hostile to the concept.

            You have no idea. Others might. Again that’s the point of the community. So instead of denigrating someone for asking a question you personally don’t know the answer to just don’t comment at all.

            Good rule of thumb: if you don’t know, don’t respond. You’ll see someone did post a credible and confident answer after your post.

            I would think people should ask answerable questions.

            They did and it was answered.
