Gregory's Server@jalefkowit this whole story describes very good why IT is such a trash fire. Even a current AMD Ryzen must be compatible with 30 year old technology that (hopefully) nobody uses anymore.
It is not turtles all the way down. It is compatibility all the way down.
The good thing about arm. It does not have the PC/Windows ecosystem. That’s why arm can sell aarch64-only chips. Because Windows ia64 failed and amd64 (with compatibility all the way down) succeed.

@txt_file Not yet, sorry, I just wrote it off the top of my head. Haven't pulled it together into an essay or anything. But the thread is public, so anyone should be able to read it, no fedi account required. This link should take them to the start of the thread: https://octodon.social/@jalefkowit/108783292985685266

@txt_file (now I'm wondering how hard it would be to write something that ingests a fedi thread and turns it into a nice web page...) |
@jalefkowit besides these problems: good read. Liked it. Is it available as blog post (or similar)? I want to share with not-fediverse-user.
