I don't live in India.

You can get radiation inside the US

You GET radiation everywhere. In fact you are being bombarded by radiation right now. Enjoy

No you can't.

sure sure, Ben Grim

Yes, you get background radiation everywhere.

Exactly. Hence the need for this CPU

Not me, I'm sure of that, homies.

Poorfags cannot afford it

>radiation hardened CPU
>not lead lining the whole case
What good is your CPU if the radiation destroys every other component?

The whole case is also radiation hardened, or the room where the equipment is installed.
The CPU and any kind of memory in the system are also hardened for extra protection against bit flipping induced by radiation.

You can get the radium out of a fire alarm.

Obligatory

Are you retarded?

I just woke up like 5 minutes ago.
Smoke detector is what i was meaning.

Early smoke detectors were made using Radium-226 instead of Americium-241.

> Letting your PC fail in the event of an atomic attack
Any PC would fail anyways unless its built in a bunker that keeps all electromagnetic waves from reaching the pc.
Any electric coild would instantly fry.

You're still wrong.
Yea, but those haven't been sold since probably long before that guy was born.

I'm using my normal CPU just fine, though.

In fact, I'm shitposting on Sup Forums with it right now.

That proves that I don't need any fancy CPU. x86 and ARM are all I need.

>CPUs from the 70s and 80s still run fine
Why would I need it?

You don't. Thats why you're not working at NASA or state department.

I get your intent but find the description entertaining: I'm not working for NASA or the state department because I do not have a radiation-resistant processor. Therefore if I were to buy one, either entity would hire me.

The logic is bit wonky but the point gets across. I kept the wonky logic simply because I thought it was amusing.

That was honestly kinda depressing to read through.

> not making your bedroom into a faraday cage with only one antenna that comes in and out with a fuse on it to stop very strong em waves from entering

Radium-226 smoke detectors are still made for (heavy) industrial purposes where a Americium-241 based ionization detector element would mess with the production process or where a optical smoke detector is not usable. For example very high humidity obscuring the lenses.

Yes in fact, in the process of trying to keep costs low it's one of the factors they look for in their employment. Each employee must already pocess a radiation resistant processing unit.

Oh shit son, he worked on the USS Enterprise.

Mark me jelly.

Now...if only they had radiation-resistant employees...

Yeah me too, the Big E was awsome.

I love shit like this, very specific processors designed for a specific purpose, with very low processing power still being used to do modern tasks.

all you need to make sure your precious consumer shit is safe when nukes are dropped is a faraday cage and a lead radiation shield

No way that would work. When it happens, TempleOS will be your only choice.

It's a radiation hardened PowerPC 750, the same used in Macs

Yes as the PowerPC G3.

I more meant how the develope software around the processor. So while it is a very underpowered, and old processor, the programs running on it being used by Nasa for example have been programmed specifically to run on that processor, so it's able to utilize it to its fullest extent.

I'm also drunk af though so i'm probably just babbling on about nothing.

TL;DR - I think old stuff still being used for modern purposes is neato.

The whole aspect of programming optimized software is very neat indeed. As an embedded programmer for processors like this I can hack and optimise the fuck out of everything.
