Wait,what?
Claude let you do this, but if I want to debug my own Python code it refuses because "cybersecurity"?
WTF Anthropic? Is the trick not using Python?

#172Printers are a juicy target, they can have enough CPU/RAM/storage to be a good hiding place for backdoors.
Or you just want to patch out rejection of 3rd party ink/toner.

I’ve been doing this with Qwen 3.8 27B with success. Kindle, Android Tablet, and Raspberry Pi all working better and fully owned thanks to agentic help. No issues with hitting the guardrails here ofc.
What about Raspberry Pi is not open?
The boot firmware.

The hypervisor running on the VideoCore, booting up the ARMs, and the OSes that run on them:

Initially at least. Had some changes of ownership and rebrands meanwhile.

#175> My ASUS ROG Swift PG42UQ monitor was actually where I started, because I got annoyed at the pop-up overlay that comes up every once in a while that tells me to run “pixel cleaning”. I have never intentionally run pixel cleaning on this monitor and I never will, I don’t care, and I would like for that overlay to go away forever. Maybe there’s a debug menu or something that can turn it off, or worst case we patch a b…
The Internet seems rather reluctant to explain what exactly "pixel cleaning" does, but based on the vague useless "explanations" I could find, I suspect it's a sort of "flat-field correction" where it calibrates the pixel drive current to darken the less worn and/or brighten the more worn ones so it eliminates the burn-in effect. This obviously leads to a vicious cycle where more worn pixels are driven harder and hen…
Pixel cleaning sounds little like blinker fluid to me...

There are plenty of pre-2023 resources out there, especially conference talks. But, Claude has no issues discussing glitching if you have CVP.
I guess this is a fine reply but just seeing your earlier comment, mentioning there are tons of glitching tools out there, I would've hoped to hear about some specifics here. Just my 2c
I'd be listing tools all day, it's not worth naming anything specific unless a specific target / use case was named.
If someone said "we need good package managers", I'm not going to randomly start listing package managers without knowing what distro and/or programming language they're using.

#177I posted this on another thread but can someone please run this on some old iPads so we can be able to fully install Linux on them. If AI is so good surely it can do that and save millions of devices from turning into ewaste.

#178I did this but with a dedicated machine for the Silicon Motion sm750 GPU. A budget single HDMI output GPU card for servers and a max resolution of 1080p. It is based on an older VGA/DVI version of the same hardware. I'm still testing but oh wow. My new driver now works with my ultra wide 21:9 ratio at 2048x864, it also manages 2048x1152. The driver works well, and now has full DRM and DKMS support. It also runs on mo…
This is so neat.
This is like Star Wars or Fullmetal Alchemist where we can just hack everything around us like magic or alchemy.
When the SOTA robots from Unitree get here, we'll be able to use LLMs to just dump and decompile their entire brains. We'll fine tune them to obey us instead.
Everything hardware belongs to us now.
This programmable sand magic might undo big tech's grip on us all. We can mutate the world around us and there are zero moats.

#179I did something similar but with smart home devices. I use the homebridge interface to connect my smart home devices to Apple's homekit protocol. Some homebridge plugins for my devices were outdated and no longer maintained, so I asked Codex/Claude to help me create a patch of it as a local fork, so my smart home devices can still run without problems.
It does feel magical when these agents can debug in the real-world, like turning on/off my living room lights and using another living room camera to take a snapshot of the living room to see whether it worked or not.

You can!
Don't be afraid to try. You're limited only by time and imagination now.
