I really loved the idea of fixup + rebase, but of course we didn't have an example here :) So I spend half an hour to learn about git shell commands in aliases (had to learn the hardware that arguments require functions) and came up wi

As most have already written here, this is no suprise. These devices are made to do one job. The whole IoT thing is just cause it something that was hyped. They did try to lock down the scope _a little_. E.g. they removed the incoming RX re

Shameless plug, but I've done the same as the author a couple of years ago, but _have_ used docker. Docker is just chroot on steroids right? Not sure what the persistent storage requirement is about, but what I do, after installing my

Note, that OSM lists this one and more in their wiki; https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/3D P.S. The F4 map app is proprietary ;)

I agree that POSIX is needing of a few small additions; * local keyword * 2 or 3 variable expansion tricks (string replacement etc) * pipefail But with those, I think the spec isn't too bad. I've been writing (imo) high-quality (a

Also, PLC modems (at least the Qualcomm ones afaik) are SPI modules which (due to drivers) expose an Ethernet interface to Linux. The PLC utils package up commands for the MCU on these chips in Ethernet frames. This also allows things to mo

Obligatory OpenWRT post for reference ;) First the disclaimer, very much work in progress (WIP)! Don't YET expect everything to work! 10/100Mbit is not working, SFP+ is experimental and the code base is a bit of a mess (but far be

The thing is, these switches can be running full-blown OpenWRT :) First the disclaimer, very much work in progress (WIP)! Don't YET expect everything to work! 10/100Mbit is not working, SFP+ is experimental and the code base is a

Yes they do. I have an ZyXEL XGS1010-12 (unmanaged) and it also runs Linux. The switch chip must be initialized, and the realtek SDK is based on Linux. You could do it with just an eeprom afaik, but seems to be actually more effort (and not

This would obviously not fly in Europe. I have setup my SolarEdge system 4 years ago, (HDWave with an LCD) and never did I sign anything that stated 'must be connected to internet, or else', again not even possible with European w

While I don't agree with the tone of your post, I completely agree with the message :) 30 - 10 years ago; Yocto (and its kin) served a very specific purpose. Building super tiny Linux distributions. If you have 4MiB worth of flash (sto

As I understood it, it's an ACPI configuration, more or less 'forced' by Microsoft, to ensure this cool new S0 is the default. See [0] [1] and [2]. The fix/work-around is to tell the kernel to not do that, and just use t

So this is super cool, and I would love to use it, but sadly, in your write-up you mention _requires_ nVidia hardware, which sadly, I don't have :( Any follow up on making this more generic, e.g. with AMD/Intel setups?

While I'm a huge GitLab fan since June 4th, but one thing that concerns me greatly, which hopefully will be resolved with this extra money, is the huge number of growing issues. What's even more scary herein is, that some issues&#
