@niconiconi that is ultra cringe

@niconiconi Seeing mentions of a GPU, I'm going to guess they bought some component that came with a downstream NDA requirement.

@eoaiuastwg Yes, it's the NemaGFX GPU from Think Silicon. https://www.starttech.vc/blog/2020/think-silicon-exit-marks-new-era-for-greek-startups/
Think Silicon exit marks the start of a new era for Greek startups

Think Silicon ’s exit a few days ago, a Patras-based startup, comes to validate the fact that Greek startups can perform beyond expectations.

@niconiconi @retrakker this will work to the benefit of open Hardware.
RISC-V will win in the end (and yes, I am aware that this is not about the arm core and ISA but a gfx component, but in the end, open source hardware will be the lever)
