@bagder@mastodon.social the sheer amount of #AIslop is just staggeringband I am pissed that #Linux is caving in amidst the flood of bullshit, stripping good and valid fubctionality and support (#i486, #ISA, #PCMCIA) from itself. Like: WTF!?

@pertho@mastodon.bsd.cafe @rootwyrm@weird.autos yes and if the sole reason for @OS1337@infosec.space was to use dd & ddrescue on some industrial thingy that runs #MSDOS then yeah that would be fine. I just think that yeeting i486 is wrong cuz #i486 requires way less workarounds than #i386 to work wellCuz yes there are still new machines deployed with i486-only #CPU|s / #SoC|s in #industrial setups!
