Not much, actually. The biggest exceptions are compiling and gaming.

A Pentium is enough for most tasks, if you're a gamer you're not buying a PC, you're buying a poorly optimised console.
If you happen to work in VFX or as a game dev, and your company for some reason doesn't give you a computer, then you might also need one.
The average student would need a new laptop, the average worker can get by with a 15 year old computer bought used for less than 100$.

Has anyone done actual research into the slowly increasing minimum requirements to watch Youtube over the years?
I used to watch Youtube videos on an Athlon XP 2600+ with 512MB RAM. With those specs you'd be lucky to open the front page of Google these days.

If it's for gaming then sky is the limit, they are all so slow and heavy nowadays. Otherwise if all the videos play smoothly I don't care.
>oh a website took 0.05 seconds longer to-
Shut up, I don't care.

Youtube is so bad these days not being able to use it isn't an issue.

ultimately my solidworks work really only needs one bitchin' cpu core, since rebuilds are what takes up most of the waiting time and that's single-threaded. i can deal with a low graphics view framerate, which is why my windows vm has been given my older gpu

the website javascript is the issue. these days i only use youtube-local, an alternative frontend written in python. you'd think being in python that it'd be slow, but compared to youtube's javascript it's blazing fast
i can browse and play youtube videos perfectly comfortably on my 17 year old laptop using that, while the official youtube website is painfully slow.
traditionally it was the video itself which was the bottleneck, but somehow webdevs have managed to make website rendering slower than video decoding, which for someone my age is truly astounding (video decoding used to be one the most taxing things you could do on a computer)

like; you /can/ still watch youtube on an athlon xp 2600+ today, youtube still provides format options that such a cpu could support even without acceleration, it's just the youtube website itself which is heavy as shit
there's lighter options still than youtube-local btw, even command-line/tui options

the reason why isn't that hard to grasp i think, they simply dont care about performance anymore. if it's tolerable on a 2 year old phone or 5 year old laptop... that's all they care about, since that's all most people use. it will be no surprise to you that there are practically nobody using an athlon xp 2600+ today, so it's not a consideration. i don't /like/ programs taking up /copious/ amounts more resources than they should reasonably need, but that's just how things are today.

I use HPC or a kubernetes cluster to run my stuff at work.
At home, I usually use i5 8350u laptop with mx and on desktop ubuntu for WoW or graphics stuff.

>>107163489
I run 32gb ram and 750ti for blender 3d and 2d stuff. Works fine.

X, so at least base 34, the only base at radices that high that is commonly used is base 64.
conversion:
capital F = 41 (9 (0 through 9) + 26 (a through z) + 6 (A to F)
capital O = 51 (9 + 26 + 16)
capital X = 60 (9 + 26 + 25)

41 * 64 * 64 + 51 * 64 + 60 = 171260
thus, 171195 out of 10
