    64DD is something we would like to support fully eventually. Since the cart code is all written in C (+PIO), it opens up a lot of flexibility for implementations like this. Not eve…

    The project has just started. I made the proof of concept, and now I am building the full project. There's tons of work left to do. We are building a small community around this an…

    You could swap the flash to 16MB, or use a third party (almost) pin compatible clone with 16MB flash if you really want. I implemented a very simple compression scheme as well so y…

    Aha! Makes sense. The docs are usually great for git, but it wasn't clear to me that the args were passed on to git format-patch, where the -v parameter indeed is properly document…

    In the e-mail reply that you get when following the guide you get something to copy paste that looks like this: git send-email -v2 ... I tried to find documentation regarding the -…

    Great guide but there seems to be a typo/mistake regarding how to save the smtp password in step 2/gmail: should use sendemail.smtpPass instead of the non existing sendemail.passwo…

    Thanks for your quick reply! This sounds like a good solution. I was trying to solve this problem on my own as well and ended up making a minimal kernel+afl image that I then boot …

    This is awesome! I wish you all the best and hope that this takes off. I am curious about how you use AFL under the hood - how do you scale? Do you use a shared kernel and run a wo…

    Nice explanation! I think you accidentally made a formatting typo: "each cell tower can provide 2043/2 120 Mbps", the 4 is probably surrounded by asterisks.

    I miss this. I'm working with embedded C and we always end up nitpicking formatting in review. Using checkpatch helps, but is there something like Prettier for C? I'm aware of the …

    Found this blog with someone who bought an FPGA devkit[1] for £260 and managed to boot Linux on it[2]. [1] https://rwmj.wordpress.com/2016/07/25/risc-v-on-an-fpga-pt-1... [2] https…

    As far as I know, only the Freedom E310[1] chip is available for purchase by normal consumers. It's a microcontroller and only has 16kB of RAM so it's probably not really what you …

    Can confirm that the privilege escalation works on OnePlus 2 as well.

    Sure, but this makes it possible to dump the firmware for further analysis. I think that's the big news here. Think we might read about a few new bugs over the coming months. Also …

    The zipcpu blog posts never ceases to amaze me, the content is so good. As a sw developer who plays around in verilog on my free time, the posts are extremely helpful to me. I just…

    With clang you can enable run time UB checks using the -fsanitize=undefined flag[0]. But in this case, the sanitizer doesn't detect undefined behavior. I tried to build the example…

    As a non-american I have to ask: why sign up for new credit cards all the time?
