Message: [QUOTE="SkoomaCatJesus, post: 42742, member: 59193"] I deeply resent the strategy the industry is using to legitimize pilfering x86. I am very enthusiastic about FPGA technologies, but not at the cost of choice in general computing. The future is not Commodore 6502, and I absolutely will not willingly pay a tax to a British lord or sterling to the UK for their disgusting ways. I will settle for RISC if it means destroying the parasites that threaten to ruin my future. My life is a hard one, I will not willfully endure being shortchanged this one form of entertainment that makes my "ball and chain" bearable. I am excited for the MISTER and PI, but not the fact that others are using the platform as a vice to destroy general purpose computing or access to the art co-linked to it. I am especially resentful of the movements that Nintendo is making to secure extra-judicial power to manipulate open-source movements by declaring ownership of their thoughts and dreams via draconian abuses of property-rights-as-IP. It is increasingly becoming as ugly on the outside as they are on the inside. And the fact that they had the gall to symbolize that with a clock is very disturbing. [/QUOTE]
