> One important note. New Arm cores being available does not equate to one being able to buy them in a product on shelves tomorrow. When we get a new Intel or AMD core, that is announced as available when it is in a product on the shelf (and has been pre-shipping for some time to select customers.) Aka maybe Microsoft or some hyperscaler might have chips for this within two years but everyone else will have to wait at least three years. ARM has been the most disappointing phenomenon in computing. The desktop was democratized: people could buy desktops, reasonably after launch, and the deal was square. Now, Arm makes some chip and we wait 1 to 3 years for maybe maybe maybe some chip that will almost certainly be available only in extremely controlled & limited segments like mobile or special servers. The number of people willing and able to cobble together a modestly high performance arm chip shrinks and shrinks. Cellphones are Apple, Qualcomm, MediaTek, and everyone else. There's embedded chips around arm but they seem to compete to never update: half are prehistoric a53 or a73 with shitty awful PCIe or USB, and a third are half decade old refresh A55 cores. This place is a wasteland of ancient cores. Worse? None of this arm shit works. We just just just are starting to see GPU drivers for some of this stuff; until recently it was all basically unusable chips, unless you bought some already rotted on the vine ancient SDK using a half decade old kernel already about to lose LTS status. Arm is the harbinger of hell times in computing. Everything is worse than to was, because of arm. That's what it feels. These releases just make me sad and bitter, that these things wont be available to anyone for years & even when they are in the wild users still won't have any drivers to actually use the chips. Arm is hell.
