   We got arm and it was boasting about how it could run on such low power and then we got smartphones and it showed that arm could run on fucking pocket sized devices aaaand no one's using arm for ultra thin and cheap laptops that can run linux

     @kirby i will support ARM taking over in non-apple spaces but once that becomes a reality ill flipflop to being the biggest x86 fan and hoard x86 devices so i can continue to play my old games and use old apps without an emulation layer

     @why @kirby
     
     Doesn't x86 have a bunch of emulation layers for the weird instruction set strangeness

     @why qemu
     
     also i basically just use Foss software so I'm fine with just compiling the entirety of my Linux or BSD install like Gentoo or lfs style

     @why @kirby RISC-V is the way. It's barely even RISC and has a thoughtful and orderly approach to extensions. Then again, ARM is barely RISC these days...
