What happens if we can't make another CPU...ever?
What fails first? How long would datacenters last? Does the Internet start to fracture?
Of course, it's a hypothetical thought experiment. But it's interesting to think what chips will stand the test of time, and which might fail sooner than you think!

Here are the other channels I mentioned, take a look:
@jeriellsworth made microchips at home, and is an excellent engineer + teacher, go check her out!

@KazeN64 is doing wild optimizations with N64 hardware:
