That's bullshit I just pissed my pants and it went everywhere. It wasnt even hard to do. I'm sitting in a pool of my own piss so you sound really dumb right now.

Linux is too much bloat. BSD is also too much bloat. Switch to Temple OS. Actually, Temple OS is too much bloat. Uuh. Did you know that it's possible to use gcc to compile a c or c++ program in such a way that it's bootable? You can make your own shitty command line os in like 100kb that way and still have access to most of the easy QOL libraries and namespaces. That's still too much fucking bloat for me though. The way I do my "computing" is I just draw on my monitor with a dry erase marker instead of plugging it into a pc.
Some motherboards in 2024 still don't work if you put the ram in the wrong ram slots. I ran into that problem on an am5 board recently.
Still cheaper than prescription medication
Open source fpgas cost up to $10 per chip, $17 if you want the big chungus 256 pin one with lots of extra memory and logic blocks. You can get pcb printing services for like $7 per board but I think I paid less than that last time I built something.
I'm pretty sure custom made ASICs cost orders of magnitude more than that.
I evangelize Linux irl by simply keeping my computer always tuned up, up to date and working well. It's inevitable that someone's windows or mac shitbook will do something shitty and people will pay attention to me just for not having the same problems as them. For example the other day by brother wanted to watch spongebob, his macbook wouldn't let him connect to the TV so I plugged it right in to Arch Linux and it worked like a charm. Sometimes the superiority of Linux simply speaks for itself.
Idk, I just hope the Republicans aren't successful at putting a stop to current legalization progress. Fucking fascists. Alcohol kills.
My brother tried to use his macbook to put spongebob on the TV and it wouldn't let him due to drm reasons. Don't let this shit become the new normal. It's GNU Linux or nothing for me.
Is there a FOSS way to do this yet?
If they never release the source, including all the fpga verilog files then this is pointless to the open source community.
Edit: actually I just realized my comment is kind of pointless. Even if he released the fpga source code, a thing a lot of projects like these never do, it still wouldn't be possible to reproduce one of these using only free and open source software. This is because the only fpgas that let you program them using open source software and not a locked-down windows-only bloatfuck program that needs an internet connection and licensing are the lattice ice40 fpgas. Tl;dr this can't be fully "open source".
I wonder if it would be possible to make an ice 40 based video card that could still do opengl.
What actually are the advantages of system rc over systemd?
