    On one hand “noooo!” But on the other this would be great for ARM and RISC-v if Intel tanks.

      Screw ARM honestly, they don’t need any help. RISC-V though as the only open source of any significance, absolutely!

        What about POWER9? You can buy a complete workstation right now, with an open source CPU, Board, BIOS. It’ll cost you an arm, a leg, and probably some more internal organs, but it is currently more functional than RISC-V.

      Hooray for Risc-v, anyway.

      I think I joke too often about ruling benevolently over the world’s robots someday after everyone lays off their Cybersecurity staff.

      But if we continue this trend, this community may have the only clean secure laptops after everyone else sells out and fills their shit with backdoors.

      Maybe we can rule together as a benevolent collective…
