    Pretty much lol. RMS went off the deep end so no GNU, Torvalds used to call people devil cunts so no Linux kernel. Theo probably did something to upset somebody lol. Maybe we can just use TempleOS and become computing hermits?

      Goes back further than that, Turing was gay, so anything building off his works must also be transitively gay.

      To add to the modern examples, Reiser murdered his wife, which really puts “devil cunts” into perspective :D

        Goes back another 100 years before that. Lovelace was a woman, who in her time wasn’t supposed to be doing anything at all

          Back then people still believed in the “woman hysteria” thing, right? Ngl sounds very “mental illness” to me.

      Well, using the same metrics would mean TempleOS is waaaaay out of the question.

      Except all our hardware is made by major corporationw and there are no major corporations that work totally ethically and morally

          pretty hard to do computation on a pdf. which is what risc-v is. You need someone to design and build a chip according to what’s in those pdfs

              i was replying to the point that all hardware is made by large corporations. That will not change, irrelevant of whether the isa is open source or not.

            You know there’s tons of real chips out already and more coming all the time?

            ARM is as much just a spec at heart.

              and arm do not manufacture chips. Usually tsmc or samsung do. The fact that chips exist is orthogonal to the argument of who ends up manufacturing them

          I like the idea of RISC-V, but I need something like a Raspberry Pi except RISC-V. I can accept a little jank, but it needs to be “good enough” if you catch my drift.

              Are there any performance benchmarks for the Star64?

              Pine64 claims the chip to have performance similar to certain Cortex-A55 processors, which would put the Star64 on par with the Raspberry 4 series. Is that true?

      OpenBSD got a grant from the DoD, and then Theo posted his opinions of the post-9/11 US government, and they put a stop on the check before it even crossed the border. He pissed a lot of folks inside the Beltway off that day.
