 emily | I think the RFC 46 criteria are pretty good, esp. in that they primarily define expectations on contributions and support rather than technical proxies for those | 02:00:17 |
| emily | though the ofborg part goes against that a bit :) | 02:00:22 |
 Tristan Ross | Hmm | 02:01:42 |
| Tristan Ross | I changed it, so x86_64-darwin isn't as used with nix as aarch64-darwin? | 04:13:37 |

@aleksana:mozilla.org So the coreutils PR got merged, that'll cause a rebuild of stdenv anyway. I think that other stdenv PR should be good. I have borrowed loongarch64 server from loongson | 04:47:00 |
| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | So | 04:47:02 |
| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | 🥺 | 04:47:14 |

Which country are you in now? US | 04:49:55 |
| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | They ban people from importing loongarch machine? | 04:50:14 |
| Tristan Ross | Apparently since 2023 | 04:50:39 |
| Tristan Ross | Idk where you even buy the hardware lol | 04:54:07 |

Apparently since 2023 Looks like it doesn't | 04:54:59 |
| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | I can search 3A5000 and 3A6000 on Amazon | 04:55:26 |
| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | They just don't say it's loongarch | 04:55:56 |
| Tristan Ross | Huh | 04:56:16 |
| Tristan Ross | Amazon says it's ARM lol | 04:56:22 |
| Tristan Ross | Redacted or Malformed Event | 04:56:45 |
| Tristan Ross | But yeah, two options | 04:56:46 |
| Tristan Ross | Oh woops, forgot the mod bot deletes images | 04:56:57 |
| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | We can move to exotic group | 04:57:20 |

I changed it, so x86_64-darwin isn't as used with nix as aarch64-darwin? We don’t collect any stats, so we don’t know, but it’s likely Apple will announce this year or next that x86_64-darwin support is being ended. | 16:34:43 |

We don’t collect any stats, so we don’t know, but it’s likely Apple will announce this year or next that x86_64-darwin support is being ended. Gotcha, I'm thinking it might be nice to get some of that information on the surveys the marketing team runs. | 16:39:14 |
| Tristan Ross | Graham shared this https://x.com/grhmc/status/1914679840843719157 | 16:39:51 |
| Tristan Ross | So it looks like aarch64 is significantly higher than x86_64 Darwin at least for DetSys | 16:40:31 |
| Tristan Ross | Ofc that's not the exact information we need but gives an idea | 16:40:47 |
| Tristan Ross | Oh yeah, @[John Ericson]. I know you were involved in the RFC for the platform tier support. I'm wanting to expand upon it and work on a new platform tier list based on this: https://pad.lassul.us/9yYTVp73QBul7dCm6tCWsw?view. I'd appreciate you're feedback and seeing what we can do to improve it. | 17:08:52 |
