the post-apocalyptic future will not be built on the 6502. it will be built on cortex-a53, mali-400 and aosp
this also means the post-apocalyptic future will be built on armv7a sorry “but hikari cortex-a53 is a 64-bit core” yes but, as you may unfortunately be aware, android
@hikari bold of you to assume anybody in the post-apocalyptic future will be able to download android much less compile it
googlesource.com goes down, poof.
@whitequark oh i didn't say anyone would be compiling or manufacturing anything
@hikari the utility of as-shipped android devices is pretty low tho...
@whitequark @hikari there will be local battles over binned Android Stick devices. Backpack "computers" built from them and an 17" LCD powered by a car battery and modifier 120v inverter
@whitequark that's the apocalyptic aspect
@hikari i mean i sure as hell would be still manufacturing things
the amount of materials in relatively accessible stocks is absurd. i could get STM32s from washing machines until i grow frail from old age
