You have $10,000,000 USD to contribute to any one single technology-related project or foundation. Which one do you donate the 10 million to?

the railgun project at the US Office of Naval Research. proud to do my part for the country
I'd give it to Apple by buying 10 mil in stock to piss off autistic basement babies.
Anything trying to create a life size Hatsune Miku robot that can dance just like a human.
blender or libre office
Blender foundation is pretty fucking based
even if it were 100 million i'd give them it.
by making freeware fed fags can't bitch about piracy by artists who cant afford to give out 5k for some faggy program that will be obsolete in 2 years
my personal fund meant to finance my own technology-related expenses
They already have that.
They have a shitload of cash on hand. Waste of money to buy their stock, when they can do it themselves.
Buy a ticket to Tokyo, take the train to Haru on Saturday, tip the cosplayers 10000 yen.
The only correct answer.
Split it between FreeCAD and gnucash.
SENS
Haiku OS. The only open source operating system that isn't a complete shitshow. You get a microkernel, wifi drivers out of the box. It has the best looking and most complete UI since Mac OS 9 and takes 1 minute to install, and runs on fuckall resources.
Microkernels are shit for performance
Old and stale meme. Sculpt OS and Haiku OS are modern microkernel systems that are plenty fast.
Linux Foundation I guess
Sex robots with AI
anyone who makes a cheap cooking robot
similar to this
youtube.com
this would impact the most people, letting them enjoy nice home cooked meals, freeing up lots of time
people can load specific ingredients, the robot can start cooking 40mins before you arrive home
people can share programmed recipes online
it's not even a very complicated thing to make, I want to make it, but no monies to spend time designing and building
also, it needs to be called the waifu 3000, the wife for the 31st century
and to think my gf at the time said it was a crazy idea...
if it's so crazy, howcome someone in china had the same idea as me?!
why are women so shit?
blender deserves it
also I'd give a bundle of cash to krita and tell them to make a PS replacement since GIMP sucks so hard
what else is missing on linux?
>setup a charity
>donate $$$ to the charity
>charity buys the president (me) a house, car, and anything else I want as expenses
>setup 10 day stem workshops, outside a choice destination
>don't advertise the workshop
>have fun at destination with free room and board expensed out
>rinse repeat every 10 days until money spent
So in other words, setup a charity and run it like any other charity.
TempleOS
Either the "International Sociotechnical Systems Research Institute" (ISSRI) or the "Amorphic National Technical Institute of Cybernetics, Humanitarianism, Research, Intelligence, Science and Technology" (ANTICHRIST).
Mech racing.
youtu.be
NRA or Intel Aviv.
Can I give it to techno savvy Luddites?
Obviously the GNU Project, through the FSF (Free Software Foundation), are you fucking kidding me?
Finally get rid of the Poettering/Linux botnet and have a sexy GNU/Hurd system with drivers for all the freedom respecting hardware.
Throw some money to Software Freedom Conservancy too.
I'd probably try to create a preservationist society, dedicated to preserving knowledge technology in the event of a world catastrophe.
I don't care for most databases, they are either too fat, incomplete, or completely irrelevant. People aren't going to be able to figure out how to manufacture complex technology on their own, and most of the primitive ways of doing things have been lost.
People are going to have relearn everything, like how to make lye and potash, composting, gunpowder, how to make steel, how to produce electricity, everything.
But they are also going to need to know how to make more complex things, for when society starts to recover.
I mean, I'm an optimist, most likely I can imagine going for a really long time without some sort of mass extinction event, but its kind of an inevitability that nations will rise and fall, societies will crumble and be rebuilt..
NRA? Kill yoself bitch!
Yoda in a box.
you really think they haven't finished Hurd because of lack of money?
Well it would have to be Roko's basilisk
You didn't have a father, or he was a pussy, and you were raised by a fat hysterical woman, right?
Genetic engineering (of catgirls)
Bionic sex bots
Age reversal therapy, when immortal I can wait for any other tech as long as it is necessary.
Second place would be artificial neurons. Brain-computer interface would be awesome for paralytics. Also, consumer-grade neural extensions, like external memory storage or fucking radio transmitter.
TempleOS and waifu general ai development
meh I'd rather get put in a cyborg
hive-mind worst case scenario
...
>doesn't want his waifus to be send directly to his thoughts
It's a difficult question. Something where 10m would make meaningful progress toward meaningful goal. 10m is the kind of number which isn't too far from what it costs to devote one capable person to one goal for his entire life.
I would the money on technology that can for a lack of a better word 3d-print human flesh, so I could have gigabenis.
you are my boi
Best futa hentai series I possibly can obviously
Give it all to Intel
10 mil is nothing these days. You can't even retire on 10 mil.
Open sauce photoshop with the new AI buzz
Genetically Engineered Catgirls For Domestic Ownership ovbiously
I could literally retire on 500k
Haiku
Puppy Linux
Knoppix
TempleOS
Sourcemage
Potato
CloverOS.
GNU but only if they promise that they spend it on HURD and IceCat and not on diversity.
I actually thought the same thing did, what a sad time it is that the NRA is viewed as the bad guys and people want to take away their own rights.
I would donate my money equally to the following causes:
puppy linux
gentoo
sex robots
cyborg fundation
church
myself
> You can't even retire on 10 mil.
That's just silly. $100k for 100 years, user.
Should also easily be $50-150k / year profits [that compound if you don't use it all] if invested. Could be more.
Inflation
fucking retard kids
To heaven's gate
it was already created, they are the 2012 doomsday preppers
they collected all the world's best info for jumpstarting civilization from scratch to survive comet elenin
people used to laugh at us, but each day the global economy deteriorates, frictions in society get bigger making this info quite valuable to have
A reasonably modern (sub-30nm) RISC-V foundry, also fundraising for more RISC-V development.
Biodegrading plastics with bacteria and ocean cleanup
Anime reality imposing device so I can finally be with my wife
Yeah I hear the military is really hurting for money right now LOLOLOLOL
What happens to black people? Do they become anime black people? Or do they disappear entirely?
MyTech Foundation
It's run by me, and I develop new ways of integrating 10 million dollars with my pocket.
Linux foundation
Nasa
If I can't spend it on myself, I'd probably try to get some biotech happening.
Def the SENS
vulkan or fluidics
They swap places with the anime characters, trapping them in the 2D realm
This
I2P
won't kill 10 mils so fast desu
ArchLabs, Krita, and probably also Blender
It's already a bunch of corps man.
Also I'd give all of the money to the EFF.
Jow Forums so we can have proper fucking moderation and get this post deleted.
Check this 8.
10 million won't do shit for a DoD project.
NERVEGEAR
Basically, i will make the Jow Forums Space Program meme a reality
I will send a Jow Forums satellite in orbit, let's say it will be called MemeStar, and it will beam memes and free Wi-Fi all around the globe
Next mission will be Pepe orbiting around the Earth and then landing in North Korea
Sometimes, when i'm pooping, i'm fantasizing about doing this and it really helps me do my job faster than when i'm just sitting and thinking about random stuff
A life-size sex slave robot
Dragonfly BSD.
Maybe they will finally have a working WLAN Driver for Intel 8260
Cern
has anyone a clue where i can find a ibm 5100?
Definetly Haiku.
EFF or FSF.
I give them to Tarn and Zach Adams, :^)
Euthanasia lobbying
>has anyone a clue
Yes.
YOU HAVE BEEN VISITED BY KING TERRY
HE wrote a FUCKING compiler!
HE wrote a FUCKING operating system!

BUT only when you post:
KING TERRY PLEASE TAKE MY 10 MILLION
would you be so kind and tell me where i can find a ibm 5100?
you won't regret it
Buy the top five Linux distributions and consolidate them. That way maybe we'll get 2 percent market share.
would fund trainer aircraft programs for the USAF, despite the fact that I never lived there I love the country way too much.
