@ljs @oleksandr @pony Yeah, so I would rather run just macOS on this, and get something having none of Apple software inside. This is just my leisure time machine :-) Not even looking it from benchmarking angle but more like fun and learning something new... Using it now as I'm keeping today off from work :-)

@pony @oleksandr @ljs You mean me? This is my Mac mini. Ok you got me, it's an ARM desktop ;-) But something with more power, cores and at minimum 64 GB of memory (that said I have the heftiest M2 Pro 12-core CPU with 32 GB, which is not too bad when compiling in Asahi Linux).

@ljs @oleksandr @pony I sold my i9-13900k desktop three weeks ago. Plan is to get something new, and 9950X would be an option but I've trying to check if there would be some decent(ish) desktop level ARM option available. There's some pretty powerful ARM CPU's for laptops but I don't much about the desktop market. Up until that surviving with X1 ThinkPad :-) ARM tickles me mainly to get more experience with that ISA...

@vbabk I have not that much but one thing I did back in 2012 was arch/x86/realmode, which is relocatable (at least a bit more given limitations) version of the trampoline code used when waking up from suspend etc. It was like historical exhibition tour on x86 legacy layers at the same time ;-)
And as a teen I wrote a few 3D engines and stuff like that for MS-DOS then using either DOS/4GW or Tran's PMODE (never did my own so called "DOS extender") :-) Good times...

I don't actually need but I mean :-) Can't get over these. Have been stalking them for couple of years already (with trousers on).
I do own MiSTeR FPGA so there is a "business reason" to get one.

@ljs I just reviewed bunch of Oracle patches, a patch set from Eric Biggers :-) I appreciate how sound he is splitting his work. A person who I can say that it is pleasure to review anything he puts out. So points on that to Oracle too 👍

I like to watch sometimes what Casey has been up to. Dude is the best show of #Linux conferences IMHO (no matter what the topic): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7cUnID7vFs

@vbabka fuck no xD i contribute, review and test code for free already. I mean who individual stupid enough to pour dimes to an org creamed with cash by literally all of multi-billion corps of the valley...
There was just link "Linux Foundation ID" (in a legit LF site, had to now check the certificates), which brought me to https://openprofile.dev/ where I created an account and then it started to push me MS services.

This discussions makes me feel like that I stepped into scam/phishing site by accident, and that is what literally happened ;-) Glad I did not put my credit card information anywhere. Next week probably I'm like a diamond sponsor together with AMD, Microsoft and others.
