The pixel cleaning warning turns out to have no native way to disable it, and it’ll always show up after 8 hours of runtime.

#22It's amazing to see LLMs give us software and hardware freedoms that the open source movement has only ever dreamed about.

Why? Does it bother you to see people using their own devices in the ways that they want?

#24I initially thought, but why would you want a "webcam whose activity LED I can switch off while it records"? But then I think I got the point: why would one want a webcam which _could be hacked_ so that its activity LED didn't go on.

#25The i2c over USB with no auth is just way way too common; I've also seen that on a device.

#27I had used codex to reverse engineer an electric skateboard to unbrick it. It was a bit more involved because it required soldering wires directly to the UART headers in a very awkward location.
Took about 10 hours and it now works fine. Without codex, this would have taken me significantly more weekends having little experience with skateboard firmware.

This is giving me the confidence to RE my cat feeder. The company (Petlibro) has an outage and now my chilled wet feeder that should be a dumb, offline feeder is basically bricked now.
The device reports fine wifi but the backing services are totally busted.

#29The pixel cleaning warning turns out to have no native way to disable it, and it’ll always show up after 8 hours of runtime. Come on, does anyone dog food their own products anymore? How could a single person developing the monitor actually believe consumers want to be bothered with this every day? If the hardware is really so terrible this must happen, find some way to incrementally do it silently or off hours. Anyt…
I have an LG TV with a similar problem. I think it’s supposed to pixel clean when you turn it off, and I do every night.
Yet for some reason I can’t escape these annoying pixel cleaning interruptions. Seems like a bug in the firmware.

That feels like it should only require a single person working on the product to experience and demand an immediate fix.
