That they would never see me buying again from them. That I can stop OTA. That matter is interoperable and I can run multiple gateways before cutting them out. Most IoT stuff I own…

Modern wifi has always been a killer for OpenWRT. Usually expect to be 1 gen behind for a few years. I wanted Wifi 7e recently (upgraded to really fast fiber) and went with Ubiquit…

RedHat used to have a poster of the linux source code. Because some early version did fit a large sheet of paper. Not sure if that's still available but it was a fun poster that I …

Or switch to HDR if you have a capable display. I was pleasantly surprised that HDR also means you can control brightness - it is all software I that case! And the brightness keys …

Oh great, I missed that end of the page. The "Round 2 details" links back to the blog and it is hard to see the FAQ on mobile (needs manual scrolling to the end). Google search and…

I pre-ordered because I loved the Pebble Round - especially the size and look. My intended use case is for formal dress codes and special events (weddings, new years, ...) wheretny…

I had 8 IPs in a hetzner server years ago. One IP had an iptables rule to accept openvpn on any port. My openvpn config was a long list of commonly accepted ports on either tcp or …

Interesting. But who is OpenDevicePartnership? Looking at the members on the repository this seems to be a Microsoft project?

Compatibility as I understand it means "mixing this in a project is OK". This is the case if the 2 license aren't at odds. Usually one license is stricter and you have to adhere to…

I tried a few times as some BIOS have a hidden or disabled setting but I never got past a plain crash. Device and CPU vendor support for classic S3 is shrinking. E.g. on framework …

The product page lists EDK II. Is the code available anywhere? I can't see it in edk-platforms..... I would love to have a UEFI I can compile....

I guess the reason is the screen. It's 320x240, and 0.3M is 640x480 (VGA).the secondary screen is even lower resolution (160x120). It does work very well for this screen resolution…

Is it? The article lists 2015 as the year where things improved a lot, 2017 is well past that. The numbers are low and even that's inflated due to recalls. I've seen >>10 year old …

It just depends on what you use for management. IIRC the /etc/network/interfaces does a reconfiguration that's pretty disruptive. Things like brctl and ethtool worked on the fly wi…

Depends on what you are doing. But you can take the path of app / os images. My home network is just openwrt, and I use make plus a few scripts and imagebuilder to create images th…

The issue talks about one vs. multiple frames. That's exactly the issue. It's not a matter of complexity, it's a matter of bad compromises. The issue can be easily played through. …

There is one thing you can't with most algorithms: prallelize decompression. That's because most compression algorithms use sliding windows to remove repetitive sections. And decom…

This looks really good, I remember looking into BWT ad a kid. It's a true "wat" once you understand it. And once you understand it, why does it compression so well? Because suffixe…

Compression algorithm implementations are not for everyone. The math and algorithms behind it are fun to learn but hard. And then you need to implement it both performant and corre…

Well, there is a pretty logical explanation. Libsystemd was moving to a dlopen architecture for its dependencies. This means that the backdoor would not load as the sshd patch only…

I have seen this in some NAS systems. It's a pretty good fit, especially for the ones that can be upgraded to 64GB RAM and run VMs or docker. Generally plenty of RAM plus many fast…

One thing everyone should keep in mind about this NVIDIA/AMD battle right now: CUDA has been published for 16 years, it's been a huge push by NVIDIA to do GPGPU computation. I reme…

A nice example of this is fftw which has hundreds (if not thousands) of generated methods to do the fft math. The whole project is a code generator. It can then after compilation b…

The actual inclusion code was never in the repo. The blobs were hidden as lzma test files. So you review would need to guess from 2 new test files that those are, decompressed, a b…

Well, I am skeptical about (2). It is unclear what exploiting means. The backdoor is doing _something_ for 0.5s if RSA key exchange happens. So even a valid login might trigger not…
