Fedi is almost certainly blowing up.

FSE, usually does about 20-25 reqs/second most of the day, and around this time (3 a.m. PST) that's closer to 10r/s. It's currently staying north of 40r/s, where it's been most of the day.

People seem worried about Eternal September 2, but I've been in a good mood, I'm excited about this. People getting away from centralized social networks, this is wonderful.

@beluga I barely know about #RISCV or chip architecture, but I think yes. See Wikipedia.

@lsanger
Mastodon, Pleroma et al are essentially already P2P if you consider single-user mode.

There are other solutions to interactive comments.

@waltznr good day.

Since you're a newcommer, it's a good idea to write a post with the "introductions" hashtag.

To think that in the event of a grand catastrophy, the fragile supply chain and library of knowledge for making computer chips would collapse.

We could fall back to typewriter terminals, ham radio -like internet, and magnetic tape storage. But without the CPU, it would take centuries to make a modern computer again.

Aside from RISC-V, I don't know what the plan for longevity is.
