Apparently Nvidia wants to call it's next generation 'Turing' and because they always use important scientists names for their architectures I read up on Alan Turings life. 

He was a pretty dope dude but because homosexuality was still illegale back in his days, they just castrated him and gave him hormones until he fell into a deep depression and killed himself. 

 

Humans are the cancer of this world.

    Yeah, remember there is still about 25% of the population that still executes people for being gay, sad...

    Go watch "The Imitation Game" if you haven't. It's a bit embellished but it's a really good movie about when he was cracking the Engima during WWII

    without turing, we most likely wouldnt have won the war, and as a means of saying thanks they destroyed his life because he got robbed in a "gay meetup spot"
