    Wow, I didn’t even realize there any consumer-grade (or dev-grade I guess) RISC-V boards available. Really cool news!

      Yes! I love that it hides the summary now until you click to expand. That way it doesn’t needlessly take up space unless you want it to.

          Hmmm it’s using a spoiler tag to hide the summary until you click. Spoiler tags work for me on desktop, but they don’t seem to work in Lemmy apps like Connect or Liftoff. It does work in Jerboa, however.

            Yeah, seems to be an issue with Liftoff

    As someone out of the loop on modern RISC, what is the benefit of RISC versus x86/64?

      The specific benefit of RISC-V vs other architectures is that it is open source, so can be used without having to pay a fee to the company that owns it.

        Ah, open source - that’s an advantage for sure, thank you.
