minus-squareGolfNovemberUniform@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-21 month agoI still don’t understand. Is it like RHEL (they give you all the source code) or more like Windows?
minus-squareMoonrise2473@feddit.itlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agoClosed source but if you pay enough you can get the source
minus-squareerwan@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agoIt’s neither. It’s a specification that you can use to build your own chip. So it’s more like MPEG where you can read the doc and create your own implementation.
