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.

Maybe Terry Davis was the real world Wonko the Sane?

Does being the last sane man on Earth make you crazy?

About as much as having a single functional eye in a country where everybody is blind makes you king.

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?

Have you ever tried programming in straight x86 assembly? :P

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.

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

Yes but who is going to manufacture that chip and board and components?

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.

Have you seen the Star64?

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.
