I guess I had some inchoate expectation that he'd be more influential. Sunak's just turned him into a hypocrite.

If homework is set with the expectation that it is to be done, then the counter-expectation is that it's marked promptly and returned.
However, "You Must, You Could, and You Might Enjoy" might also be made use of.

Yes, I can understand that, but he's been a lead voice on the environment a lot longer than most. I guess he's swapped his beliefs & scruples for the trappings of monarchy, and that diminishes him rather than elivates him in my eyes.

It struck me as crap, frankly. "Please don't eat in the library" is enough.

He ought to have sparked a constitutional crisis and refused to say it. Then he should have devolved the government.

He teased some big announcement coming up : I guess that was saved for the forthcoming RISC-V conference. .
And a couple of new boards coming out next year.
Other than that : only what anyone following RISC-V closely already knows... Android is on track for next Summer.

I saw your headline and got excited for a moment, as I've been interested in this product since they announced it.
AFAIK this still needs some developer-work.

Buying a used phone does save resources and stops potential e-waste though.
Plus with an older phone there's more likelihood that an alternative OS is available.

67% of phones are made in China.* Many for Western companies. Using parts and materials sourced from around the world.

I guess it depends on what operating system you decide to use...

Well, I definitely think that UK governance needs root and branch reform.

A written constitution sets things in stone. That's okay... until the everyday realities change.
Just my opinion but, the way the UK does things at the moment is much more flexible. However it could do with a system for abolishing out-of-date, or updated laws.

Perhaps partially. But growing and producing more stuff locally would be better. And perhaps learning to go without stuff out of season might be good both for us and for the planet.

Religion, phylosophy and science have all been seeking the answer to this question for so many centuries. It won't surprise anyone when I admit that I don't have the answer!

Nothing more than that, in humanity's frame of reference, things come into being, exist, and deteriorate. I have no reason to think the Universe is any different, since it seems to be made of the same stuff.

... and yet the grit in the oyster persists : in humanity's frame of reference, something has never been created out of nothing.

Or it could finally be the Year of Linux.
Someone recently asked about RISC-V apps, and someone else asked if there was a list of apps available. I thought it might be a good idea to start one here. These are some of the apps I'm interested in, that apparently run on RISC-V (I've not tested them because I don't have a RISC-V board yet) : - Ardour - Audacity - Calindori - Gedit - GIMP - Handbrake - Inkscape - Krita - Moment - a Matrix client - Nitro - qTox - Scribus - Sphinx - Stellarium - Tor Browser - VLC I've seen LibreOffice Writer running too. Podman and Docker also work. If you know of other apps (and I'm sure there must be), please add them below.

It would put me off using it.
Coming to a desktop-class mini-ITX motherboard in 2024.
Does anyone know what the SiFive P870 processor is the equivalent of in ARM performance? How far is it behind the latest ARM offerings?
>The only difference [from Arm] is that the marketplace is allowed to use these standards without proprietary licences from a controlling company. A rational, sensible response from Calista Redmond.
Apparently China is "abusing" RISC-V! I simply don't understand the mentality. :/
Hi Does anyone have a Beagle-V? Does it come with a pre-installed OS? Is there a Debian image for it?? TIA
China, apparently, accounts for 24% of Arm's revenue. They're pushing RISC-V. Qualcomm, one of Arm's largest customers, is pushing RISC-V. Samsung also has RISC-V cores in its SoCs. Broadcom wants into the NXP, Qualcomm, Bosch RISC-V consortium too... Where's MediaTek?
