Framework #Laptop 13 To See A #RISC-V #Motherboard Option

source: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Framework-Laptop-RISC-V-Board

"This Mainboard is extremely compelling, but we want to be clear that in this generation, it is focused primarily on enabling developers, tinkerers, and hobbyists to start testing and creating on RISC-V. The peripheral set and performance aren’t yet competitive with our Intel and AMD-powered Framework Laptop Mainboards. This board also has soldered memory and uses #MicroSD cards and #eMMC for storage, both of which are limitations of the processor. It is a great way to start playing with RISC-V though inside of a thin, light, refined laptop. The Mainboard will be able to drop into any Framework Laptop 13 chassis or into the Cooler Master Mainboard Case. DeepComputing is also working closely with the teams at Canonical and #RedHat to ensure Linux support is solid through #Ubuntu and #Fedora."

#RedHat’s commitment to #opensource: A response to the git.centos.org changes

Source: https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/red-hats-commitment-open-source-response-gitcentosorg-changes

Simply rebuilding code, without adding value or changing it in any way, represents a real threat to open source companies everywhere. This is a real threat to open source, and one that has the potential to revert open source back into a hobbyist- and hackers-only activity.

I guess the greed for profit in #capitalism makes them blind to understand the simplest things about open source. This is one reason why a part of the community prefers to call itself #FLOSS.
