Quit fucking around with the ME, DRM, security, diversity bullshit, web "developers", UEFI, process shrinks, etc. and get back to finishing iDDR and E64, optimising REP/REPNZ/REPZ and the other instructions, and release something worth buying again. Clownlake is long overdue.

x86 will not die because
1.Its deeply entrenched with closed source software.
2.There are no competitors at Desktop PC level. All hardware is tied to intel/amd cpu capabilities(MSI,gigabyte,Asrock,etc)
3.It provides features considered secondary to CPU purpose: iGPU,virtualization,video codecs,etc essentially a System on Chip, where features migrate into CPU die. CPU-only focused products will not compete well, if you force users to buy videocards or need any extra chips.
