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?
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.
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.

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
Well, using the same metrics would mean TempleOS is waaaaay out of the question.
Maybe Terry Davis was the real world Wonko the Sane?
Does being the last sane man on Earth make you crazy?
Except all our hardware is made by major corporationw and there are no major corporations that work totally ethically and morally
Hmm maybe we’ll run FreeDOS on breadboarded (vintage) 8086s and live in caves 😂.
A Microsoft (stolen) design and the most evil CPU arch?
At least caves might be ethically sourced.
Freedos is not MSDos though. And how is x86 evil?
RISC-V is a good start though
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

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.

Yes but who is going to manufacture that chip and board and components?
3D printers, eventually?
Perhaps, but that’s quite far away still
