@ryanc I could've told you that xD
It's also in some manuals xD

You can also just enable SSH. You can also access it from the host system.

BMCs are very fun and very insecure devices :D

Just released my first ever demoscene demo at Revision 2026 in the Wild-Compo:
A tech demo for Casio fx-9860G graphical calculators!

#revision2026

Mal etwas in beruflicher Funktion...
Wir suchen Cloud-Engineers in meinem Team bei der Hetzner Cloud, die sich mit BMCs, Ansible, QEMU/KVM, Go, etc. auskennen:

100% remote, DE only :BoostOK:

Geht um den Betrieb der eigentlichen Plattform, alles von Hardware bis zum Hypervisor.

There are finally real USB3 (not Thunderbolt, not USB4 PCIe Tunneling) 10GbE NICs!

RTL8159 chipset-based, it uses the generic cdc_ncm driver on Linux.
Also seems to work on macOS and iOS.

TCP throughput between GPD Pocket 4 and MacBook Pro M1 seems a bit low at ~6.2 GBit/s, but that might also be due to the connected devices (both sides are using the same adapter).
I don't have another 10GBit/s device here right now, sorry.

Don't have a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 device, so I can't test the full speed!

New project post: AnotterKiosk

AnotterKiosk is another full-page web-browser OS for Pi's and other PCs, displays a webpage in full screen 24/7.

It has support for multi-touch input, a watchdog/heartbeat feature, local webserver, fully read-only root FS (won't kill SD cards, ever!), manual EDID overrides, configurable caching, reverse SSH tunnel support...

Can be used for signs, conference info screens, dashboards, home automation, etc.

@whitequark @salty there are human sized dog beds!! not even very expensive!
putting one on the balcony, putting a blanket over yourself and another comfy being and then looking into the sky is 10/10, very highly recommended!

@whitequark bird2 if you want it to work (well).

if you have to do EVPN (and then I‘ll pray for your soul), you might have to use FRR.

OH: Lesben statt Wespen! 🐝

Do I happen to know anyone in the EU with a LaserDisc + Domesday Duplicator setup?

I really want to have a digital rip of a rare laserdisc, but I really don't feel like getting into a whole new ecosystem.

Willing to pay for the time and effort.

EDIT: My disc is a Japanese NTSC release, making things even harder...

@erincandescent built in ethernet with a gdb port just via IP — back in 1999!!

modern debuggers could learn a thing (or two!)

@erincandescent Abatron used to be Swiss, but I guess that almost counts (this is going to make some swiss people mad 🫣😅)

@derf no comment :P

@hennichodernich @whitequark that's basically parallel ATA :D

@caligula9997 😹

@ryanc @gsuberland hmm, sad -- I don't see anything very helpful :/

@gsuberland @ryanc yeah, glasgow can just do that upstream these days.

@ryanc @gsuberland no, those are sadly just fiducial markers:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiducial_marker#Printed_circuit_boards

I don't see any relevant pins/testpoints on the photos on openwrt.org, maybe something below the RF shielding? hmm..

@ryanc yeah, that does require a bit of pratice first... :(

holding the CPU in reset would probably work, but I didn't see anything that looks like JTAG pins on your board.

@gsuberland @ryanc yeah, I've been there... this happened to me on a NXP QorIQ PowerPC platform and then I had to add an inline resistor with the CS line like this:

That was a bit tricky...

@gsuberland @ryanc IPQ40xx (like in Ryan's AP) will go High-Z on the flash chips when in reset, though, I've done this in the past.
