This is the future Im talking about. New cpus doesnt allow gentoo to be installed, and vendors dont sell old cpus anymore because they are not "secure"
CPUs will never be like that.
Free market guarantees it
Really? The same free market that has exploded the use of smartphones, the least free hardware ever created? Personal computer hardware not found in phones that's not completely locked down only exists now because it has been free in recent memory and people would actually be upset about it. Over time, it will slowly disappear, and the consumer won't notice, like a frog in boiling water.

Holy shit. As crazy as this sounds, it isn't even that far fetched.
Next you'll OS will get deactivated if you access torrenting sites
More people should switch to Linux. I didn't like where Microsoft was heading with Windows 10 so I gave Linux a try. The desktop experience is great, I don't know why people say otherwise.
Dont forget that spoofing your adress to look like approved device will be illegal and get you imprisoned.
Daily reminder that every FOSS you use is a step closer to preventing this from happening.
They say otherwise because they are paid astroturfers
user, just use Windows 10 you nerd xD
Oh, to be 14 again...

None of these things are true.
You should probably spend less time on Sup Forums. And more time actually using saod products.
>New cpus doesnt allow gentoo to be installed
It won't happen like that. All it would take to do that now is for computer manufacturers to stop including the Microsoft 3rd party signing key for Secure Boot and disable the ability to turn off Secure Boot. The later could easily happen with the next version of Windows as Secure Boot went from recommended for manufactures to support with Windows 8 to required for manufactures to support with Windows 10 and Microsoft already has mandated that all ARM based Windows devices not give the user the ability to disable Secure Boot for years now.
Gentoo isn't free as in freedom™

Problem with this:
1. Nearly every web server uses Linux or BSD.
2. The most popular hardware for servers is x86-64, because it's dirt cheap and powerful.
Server companies will demand Intel not lock down their CPUs, and allow them to run their own operating systems.
If you meant to respond to , this user has a better explanation for how it would happen:
...
So intel will not lock down their CPUs for only approved server operators. Youre a consumer? Enjoy your 10 year old server hardware just so you can use linux
Yes it is. (((Stallman))) is just in denial.

I'm perfectly ok with this tbqh senpai.
Just like my Japanese animes.
tbqh I'm okay with any scenario that leads to the long-overdue race war. the Earth must be cleansed.

Yeah, no one is going to fall for that bullshit. Just say "I'm a small business owner; sell me a server you cunt."
