European RISC-V Industrial Computing Initiative

I like RISC-V as a concept but still only Chinese are focused on manufacturing those today.

So.. it's a bit funny to read there is an European Initiative... to promote Chinese computer appliances.

In times when fridges with Chinese electronics that are phoning home become more hack-able today than ever..

It's interesting to see both "Firefly AIBOX-K3" and "Milk-V Jupiter2" uses cores from SpacemiT, a Chinese company. It's even listed as the "Reference stack" that is "Defined together, verified together"!

That’s the question I’m asking. Where is Siemens and Bosch these days… all I see is China is playing to get through EU compliance to ensure more phoning home from Industry 4.0 appliances. Meh.

And no, I’m not American, nor I think Americans can be trusted more these days in the race of global surveillance programs.

But having open, patent free standards is noble. I love the idea.

Hopefully they praise the initiative. ;-)

That goes to show how low the things have gone with US administration.

In fact several countries do support Huawei store in addition to Apple and Google ones.

Fair enough, however being vibe coded is all the rage nowadays.

Soon, there will be vibe fabricated chips in our computers and machines. Can't wait for coming hardware revolution.

I think you misunderstood. I’m happy to buy RISC-V computer but from a vendor that I can trust I don’t need to place in DMZ or I see funny traffic on the routers

I don't understand. You will trust it only if you make it yourself?
