Thaddeus, you can go and plumb yourself, and you can keep your stupid
basket of arm computers. Yours was the most embarrassing "I'm just
bored and I don't have anything else to do" response of all.

More than two dozen responses, none related to the question.

Haven't you done anything with aarch64 on labs|9legacy?

You don't know anyone who has done that?

Then why are you posting to this thread?

Trolling and bullshit, as always.
