Can't even source their own chips. Need to buy from the real China, Taiwan.

China is a fucking joke.

Make RISC-V great again

Loongson is fully Chinese. Only the x86 chips have a Taiwan joint.

Yeah, only the most dominant, mature, and in-use instruction set.

When was the last time you ran a SPARC binary?

[–] Aatube@kbin.melroy.org 1 points 7 months ago

I was gonna say x64, but I just realized that that's x86.

Anyways, none of these are SPARC either, and if they're switching to another operating system, it seems logical for them to use ARM since Windows apps can't run anyway
