It’s very possible. Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe the CPU and APU do a little acknowledgment handshake every time an audio program finishes. I’m willing to bet there a lot of instances of the CPU subroutine waiting on the APU, e.g. an animation waiting for a sound cue to finish can advance slightly faster.

A more complicated but ultimately faster approach is using a structure like an Entity Component System. You build an entity (deer, person, plant) out of components that are just data (health, hunger, mood), and then each type of component has a corresponding system that updates all the components at once based on other values. It’s somewhat similar, but you save space on unnecessary components not being added, and it packs the data together in way that is faster for the computer to iterate through.
Trump is trying to sell EVs to people who he has already convinced to hate EVs. The people who buy Trump stuff think EVs are a liberal plot to turn everyone into gay communists.
I have no doubt they’ve already added Tesla to their list of cognitive dissonances because Daddy Trump told them to. They have no real strong convictions beyond wanting to hurt minorities and loving Trump.
I’m sure a social safety net propped up entirely by bureaucrats is going to suddenly deprive every one of their rights. It won’t be a government with mass surveillance and militarized police. Nope, those are definitely not two different things. Big government is big government regardless of form apparently.
Not that I disagree with the idea of Democrats shifting right, but it’s a very small shift supported by very few data points. The line probably wouldn’t have changed much with more data. OTOH, the Republican spike is way too much to be an outlier.
