Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Maybe. ARM has been getting a lot more popular in recent years. You see it in laptops (Apple's M-series chips are ARM) and in Datacenters (Graviton in AWS for example). NVIDIA has its Grace CPU that is also ARM. Not to mention almost every phone in existence.

ARM is a step up, but it's still just moving from feudalism to capitalism. Hopefully China can bring RISC-V to the world!
