Are you going to tell me anything that I don't know? I am not going to write anything in C++ and I have a shitty day every time I have to touch something someone else wrote in C++ and more than I hate C++, I hate being advocated at.

FUCKING NO THAT IS NOT WHY IT HAS AN "X" ON THE FRONT

FUCKING LOOK IT UP

  THIS IS AN OS CONVENTION
  
  IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CPU ARCHITECTURE
  
  THERE IS NO ARCHITECTURE NAMED "X64"
  
  THE "X" DOES NOT MEAN "WHICHEVER MANUFACTURER"
  
  IT IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH 64-BIT MIPS, 64-BIT RISC-V, 64-BIT ARM
  
  x86 IS A FAMILY OF CHIPS THAT SHARE A COMMON ISA
  
  THE "X" IS BECAUSE THE MODELS, ALL CREATED BY INTEL, HAD A PART NUMBER ENDING IN "86"
  
  INTEL SUING AMD FOR CLONING ITS 80386 ET CETERA AND WRITING "80386" ON THE CHIP AND THE BOX IS HOW WE GOT THE ESTABLISHED CASE LAW THAT NUMBERS ARE NOT SUBJECT TO TRADEMARK
  
  IT IS WHY INSTEAD OF A CHIP CALLED THE "80586", INTEL RELEASE A CHIP IT CALLED THE "PENTIUM", IT MEANS "FIVE"
  
  YOU ARE MAKING UP INSANE ZOOMER SHIT AND THEN TELLING IT TO SOMEONE THAT WAS ALIVE AND SAW WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED

  I don't know what you know.

  K....

  So I have and here's what I found, kinda proving my point.
  
  Are you sure you aren't confusing it with cpu architecture yah boomer 🤓

  1. What does the 'x' in x86 and x64 mean?
    
    Answer (1 of 3): It was used as a placeholder, like in algebra. Intel released the 8086 microprocessor in 1979, which was popularized in the IBM PC computer, the first general purpose desktop computer marketed to small business. Intel subsequently made improvements to the 8086 design, producing ...
