Submission + - Mozilla Thunderbolt is an open-source AI client focused on control and self-host (nerds.xyz)

BrianFagioli writes: Mozillaâ(TM)s email subsidiary MZLA Technologies just introduced Thunderbolt, an open-source AI client aimed at organizations that want to run AI on their own infrastructure instead of relying entirely on cloud services. The idea is to give companies full control over their data, models, and workflows while still offering things like chat, research tools, automation, and integration with enterprise systems through the Haystack AI framework. Native apps are planned for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. Personally, I like the self-hosted concept, but the name âoeThunderboltâ feels like a miss since there are already a ton of unrelated tech products using that name.

The difficulties described are consequences of Apple’s proprietary platform design, not evidence that Linux or ARM are immature ecosystems. Conflating ISA compatibility with platform openness is a fundamental misunderstanding of how hardware enablement works.

“Linux doesn’t feel ready for ARM yet. Many apps aren’t compiled for ARM.”

This is the weakest argument in the article.

ARM Linux is widely deployed on:

Billions of Android devices (Linux kernel)
Most cloud hyperscalers (Graviton, Ampere)
Raspberry Pi ecosystem
Embedded and industrial systems
Major distros eg:
Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian have mature AArch64 support.

And today most open-source software compiles cleanly for ARM64.
Browsers, compilers, containers, dev tools are fully native.
Even Steam supports ARM via translation layers.

The real issue is x86-only proprietary binaries.

That’s not Linux-on-ARM immaturity.
That’s legacy x86 ecosystem inertia.

Even Apple solves this via Rosetta — a translation layer.
Linux uses FEX or box64 for similar purposes.

Translation instability platform immaturity.

I guess the source is MSN though ...

"We had sex in a chinese hotel" ......
Anti-China Propaganda - like chinese hotels are the only place this is happening ...
Like BBC has broadcast one iota of truth regarding the Epstien revelations that might shed more light on the actions of the royal nonce, ex prime ministers or
high ranking british pedophiles... Weird i think isnt it that they dont have any airtime for to tell the truth on the biggest trafficking / pedophile ring ever. Maybe thats because BBC is also an organisation that enabled and paid nonces
like
Rolf Harris ,
Billy Idol ,
Jimmy Saville,
Stuart Hall,
Huw Edwards,
Chris Denning,
Johnathan King,
Chris Langham
All bankrolled by the nations LEAST trusted nonce enabling broadcaster.

I smell a dead cat story, and the reason i do not watch , not fund british nonce-enabling broadcast television via the TV License.
I highly recommend people boycott it. In fact if you ARE paying and watching BBC programmes - why do you fund this - what does this say about you?

Not sure why this is problematic.
Governments of the world ought to use open source software - they should also fund its development, perhaps even employ developers to maintain it.
Using proprietary software that costs money excludes some users and is not auditable. Neither of those things are good for tax payers.

The only people that take issue with this are microsoft and its zealots.
