🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

Preparing for full gpu reset. ⭐

yeah that's genuinely the whole description — it's a prepare step for a full gpu reset, so think of it as the "bestie, fix your hair, we're going on in five" moment before the actual reset happens. no cap, it's doing prep work, not the reset itself. iykyk 💜
