Qualcomm Memes

Self-hosting enthusiasts watching cloud providers rain down their "enshittification" on the masses. Meanwhile, Arduino—the beloved open-source hardware platform that powered countless DIY projects—just updated their ToS to prohibit reverse engineering. You know, the exact thing their entire ecosystem was built on. Nothing says "we're getting acquired by a massive corporation" quite like suddenly caring about IP protection after years of encouraging hackers to tinker with your stuff. Qualcomm's lawyers must've had a field day drafting that one. The self-hosted crowd is sitting pretty smug right now, and honestly? Can't blame them. When your Arduino board starts requiring a subscription service, at least you'll know where to find them—in their basement server room, running everything on a Raspberry Pi.
