@daviwil @civodul @dthompson Is RISC-V a viable alternative for personal computers? I've heard that RISC-V is a free standard (as in freedom).

@akib @daviwil @civodul it's promising! maybe in the future there will be easily accessible and affordable computers that use it.

@dthompson @daviwil @civodul Losedows (by Microsoft) is dominating in the OS market, so its unlikely to see RISC-V computer to be common until MS decides to support it. We, the free software activists, must make our own computers.

@akib @daviwil @civodul maybe we need to make computers but also we need to stop saying things like "losedows" 🙂
