@ruby0x1 @zeux i feel like it made more sense back when we went from writing to A000:0000, to glBegin().

@ruby0x1 if anyone from arm is reading this please add an additional mnemonic FLCVTZS because Luau uses this as well

@zeux Hardware doesn’t always accelerate (cough, Virge, cough).

@simonf @zeux well there's the kind of hardware acceleration where HW makes something that would otherwise be slow faster, and the kind of hardware acceleration where you take the damn thing and drop it out a window a couple floors high

@rygorous @simonf sometimes you think it’s the former and then discover otherwise and opt for the latter
