That man has more red flags than a flag football team.

Only several thousand? There was a guy when I worked for Facebook who pushed a config change incrementing a timeout from 5 seconds to 30 seconds in the caching layer. Config changes roll out instantly. Brought down all of Facebook for about two hours. Probably cost them many millions. I mean, good for him.

According to the law (the thing that determines if something is or isn’t illegal) it’s illegal. Zuck is a criminal.

You’re a hero.

Simple solution: buy a smart TV and never connect it to the internet.

Is this from Hello: The Mister Chef Collective?

If it’s using AI, I’m not interested. AI is garbage and produces garbage code. I definitely don’t want some LLM fucking up my database.

You might want to think about running a “stable” or “LTS” OS and spin up things in Docker instead. That way you only have to do OS level updates very rarely.

Right now, not very. Basically only open source software can run on it, and only if it’s either exceptionally portable or has been tweaked to compile for it.

In the future, hopefully this is usable for general computing, but right now it’s basically only usable for R&D or niche applications.

The path forward for RISC-V is getting it into more developers’ hands though, so having it available for really nice hardware like the Framework is awesome.

Well, kind of 3 companies.

Intel and AMD both have rights to x86_64, since they both held patents used by it. In 2021, AMD’s patents expired.

Then there’s ARM, which is solely owned by Arm Holdings.

But yes, it’s still very much a big problem, and I really hope RISC-V succeeds to solve that problem. Licensing core designs is a much better motive and business model than licensing an entire ISA.

Edit: oh wait, you said two architectures, not two companies. Never mind, you’re right. :)

ChromeOS is already an operating system for children. Like, literally. Schools use it because it works well and is really easy to use, and runs on very cheap hardware.
