The question is, with LPL's location, is the video now downloaded to YouTube?

Online search was partly successful. It is either an i7-7500U, i5-8250U, i5-7200U. Iirc I think it's the i5-8250U

Uuh I think it's an i7 but I'm not at home rn so I can't check. I'll try to find the laptop online and see what the cpu is. If it helps task manager displays the integrated graphics as "intel hd graphics 620"

I don't recall if in task manager it shows it's using the gpu

When it happens, as soon as I load up the game cpu usage skyrockets to 100 and gpu stays low, and the game runs at like 1 fps. Happens the most with Roblox and Superliminal. I usually have to reload those games several times before it works properly.

In that case why does windows recognize them separately in task manager (with separate status windows and everything)?

Ah, so essentially (probably oversimplified) the cpu gets a bunch of values for objects and the gpu interprets those values into an image, kinda like decoding Morse code?

Yes, it's annoying when that happens, sometimes my computer will forget it has integrated graphics when I load a game then it renders with the cpu and gives me like 1 fps

Yes, but wouldn't the GPU not know what to display if the CPU didn't tell it what to display? Or is it more like the CPU tells it "throw this object here and this object here, figure out how to put it on a screen" (albeit much more complex and many more objects)?

Well you do both simultaneously. Either way if they were on their way to the colonoscopy they would've been fasting/cleansing for at least a few days, and thus wouldn't have much in their system

Problem is there wouldn't be much if any poop because you fast before a colonoscopy
