Chapter 211 Streets of New York

When talking about 3D games, we have to mention GPU.

Without the support of GPU, it will be very difficult for 3D technology to take off.

Although there is even "Duke Nukem 3D" on SFC, the effect is very bad.

As early as the 1970s, the world's earliest 3D game was born, called "Akara Bess".

However, the performance of early 3D games was really poor, so for a while, 2D games dominated the mainstream.

Now Catherine's CPU is not good at all. From the moment the CPU was invented, Catherine's CPU has never escaped the curse of Moore's theory - the only difference is that Catherine started earlier.

What should you do when the CPU encounters a shortage?

At this time, the GPU can also come in handy.

——cudute-unified-device-architecture)

APU technology may take a long time to be realized, but CUDA technology may not.

The so-called CUDA is an architecture that allows GPU and CPU to work together to process computers.

In other words, CUDA lets the GPU do the work of the CPU.

For a long time, GPU technology has been ahead of CPU-even though GPU started later than CPU.

Catherine is now starting to develop GPUs in advance. In the future, GPUs can only be better than CPUs, so the development of CUDA technology is necessary.

As a software engineer, Catherine is fortunate to have learned about the architecture of CUDA.

This architecture is also helpful for scientific research.

In addition to targeting the general public, Catherine's other target is these scientific researchers.

They often have a high reputation, and once their products get word of mouth from them, it is the best advertisement.

For example, people all know that Einstein and Hawking all used their own computers to conduct their scientific research. Isn't this great?

——Of course, Einstein is impossible, but if Hawking... maybe I can develop a cool smart computer for him in the future?

The only pity is that Catherine's current investment is not enough, and this research cannot be obtained without hundreds of millions, or even billions.

After all, Catherine didn't understand the structure of the GPU. She just knew that the other party was somewhat similar to the CPU, and she knew the concept of the GPU.

For specific matters, she could only leave them to the scientific research team of the "Eight Rebellions".

…

After inspecting the company, the next day, Catherine and Elsa went shopping together.

I can't help it, because the clothes Lisa recently sent... are too sexy.

Although the clothes are not necessarily revealing, Lisa has understood how to use clothes to highlight the figure without exposing it.

Therefore, Catherine decided to buy some clothes that were more pleasing to the eye.

Pulling Elsa and walking on Fifth Avenue in New York. Catherine is taking her for a stroll. The bodyguards are wearing uniform black suits and wearing black sunglasses to protect Catherine. This is mib.

mib, from the movie "Men in Black," means men-in-bl, and that's what Catherine calls these bodyguards - because it's funny.

Catherine didn't like shopping, she just thought it felt good to take Elsa out for a walk, so she didn't mind walking more.

"Oh~oh~"

Young boys and girls were fooling around in the street. The boys wore leather jackets and jeans, while the girls wore miniskirts, exposing pairs of breasts.

They had just come out of a store.

Then, one person sat in the driver's seat, another boy sat in the middle of the back seat, and the girls also squeezed into the car.

They opened their legs like this and stretched them out of the window to compress the space in the car as much as possible and let more people in.

Finally, the crowded black car started to move swayingly, and a pair of legs were very eye-catchingly exposed outside the car.

At this time, Catherine noticed that an old man wearing single-lens lenses next to her had fallen off, and he was staring at the car intently.

And more people shook their heads, and then went to do their own things.

This is a very common sight in New York, and even across the United States.

Hippie, sexual liberation, adolescent rebellion, this was the street scene of the 1960s.

In comparison, Catherine suddenly felt that the clothes on her legs seemed too conservative.

Catherine shook her head.

Hippies were a crazy bunch and it was hard for her to understand what these people were thinking.

"The world is declining..."

The old man put on his glasses in a hurry, and then left with a sigh.

"Let's go, Elsa, let's go look at the clothes first."

"New York is such a strange place..." Elsa tilted her head. Compared to the United States, Britain is too conservative.

The two of them strolled slowly on the street, with Beetle cars passing by. Punk-style "artists" with long hair would occasionally pass through the crowd while humming strange music.

.

"Let's take a look here"

Catherine finally saw a women's clothing store.

"Female Charm" - this is the name of the store.

Catherine asked the bodyguards to stay outside and went in.

But after walking into the store, Catherine discovered that this store was so... non-mainstream.

The style of the store is very dark, and on the side, several girls are wearing translucent clothes and chatting as if no one is watching.

"Hey, sisters, welcome, welcome"

At this time, a woman came over...

She wore a leather jacket and a spiked collar. She had a shaved head, heavy makeup on her face, and a pair of donkey shoes dressed as angels.

"Hello."

Catherine didn't know what to say.

She wanted to leave, but the other party seemed to be very enthusiastic...

She is probably a salesperson.

Catherine also understood...that she had probably entered a hippie store by mistake.

“Not bad”

On the ground not far away, there was a man sitting, and he was actually wearing women's clothes, and he was smoking something...

Isn't it a drug?

Catherine's scalp was numb.

"Oh, your hair is so beautiful."

"Thanks."

Catherine touched her long hair unconsciously.

"What can I do for you?"

"Uh...I need to buy some clothes. It's almost summer now."

Catherine said.

"Oh, really? Maybe you'll like this."

She took Catherine with her and came inside.

"Uh...I'm not used to wearing leather clothes."

Although wearing leather clothes is a trend nowadays, Catherine just can't get used to wearing such clothes.

She still thinks silk or pure cotton is better.

"Yeah?"

The other party quickly brought Catherine to the other side.

"How about this? Sexy denim suit~"

A pair of cowboy boots, a pair of denim hot pants, a sports vest and a small jacket - the vest is actually transparent.

"Maybe something more normal?"

Elsa couldn't bear it anymore.

"Oh yes, these are too conservative."

Catherine's face turned into the word "囧".

"Let me think about it...oh, by the way, this outfit must be very good."

The other party took Catherine to the other side.

But when Catherine saw the clothes the other party gave her, she was embarrassed.

This is a one-piece corset that looks very conservative, but it is open in key parts, and there are two holes on it.

"If combined with a breast chain or collar, the effect will be even better."

The other party handed the clothes to Catherine, "Oh, by the way, fishnet stockings are also essential."

"At the party, you can definitely attract everyone's attention."

Catherine understood. She probably thought she was preparing clothes for a party.

"Uh...thank you, I think that's enough."

Catherine didn't want to get entangled with the other party, she had decided to get out of the way early in the morning.

"Oh, oh, don't forget this."

The other party brought over another coat.

"Windbreaker?"

"Of course, you don't want to be exposed on the street, right?"

"Uh...thank you."

Catherine couldn't laugh or cry.

For Europeans and Americans, parties are almost indispensable in life.

People can hold a party for any reason and then participate in a carnival. This is how Europeans and Americans have always lived. There are only a few people like Catherine who live in seclusion.

Even her mother Emma often attends various parties and dances... Of course, she mostly goes to watch ballet performances.

"Maybe you'd like a cloak. The hooded cloak is great."

The other party brought another cloak.

In the end, Catherine escaped from a clothing store that was "occupied" by hippies.

"Elsa..."

Catherine still looked a little frightened.

"What's wrong?" Elsa looked at Catherine strangely.

"I found that Lisa is really a good child..."

The above is Catherine's exclamation.

Next, Catherine learned her lesson and chose a clothing store that looked quite decent.

"ah"

At this moment, screams came from the side. At this moment, two young men suddenly rushed out of the shop, holding guns in their hands, and then shot toward a car not far away.

go.

"Robbers?"

Catherine was stunned for a moment, she never thought that she would encounter such a thing.

Maybe it was because the opponent still had a gun in his hand, so no one dared to catch up.

"Get out of the way"

On their way, a girl was standing there, and the two robbers waved their hands fiercely.

"Oh no"

His personal bodyguard, Kane, suddenly shouted at this time.

Does Kane know that girl?

Catherine turned her head and suddenly saw the girl suddenly leaning over...
