Many flip phones had cameras by then. For instance, the Razr V3 was the best selling phone of 2005, and had a 640×480px camera.

To expand on laulis' comment: Valetudo isn't a full custom-firmware, it's a mod for the existing firmware. You copy on the Valetudo daemon binary, fuss with the init scripts to start the daemon, and fuss with the DNS and suc

I was going to say that I assume that the reason for such old CPUs is the ability to use Canoeboot/GNU Boot. But you absolutely can put an SSE4.2 CPU in a KGPE-D16 motherboard. So IDK.

Fascinating. My setup: Firefox on X11 on a ThinkPad E15 Gen 2, with X11 misconfigured such that it is 96 DPI instead of the physically-correct 144 DPI. On initial load, it has the green calibrated box saying "Detected: 24″ FHD Monitor

Specifically, what is colloquially an "RJ45" or "Ethernet" connector is an 8P8C "Bell System Miniature Plug/Jack" (AT&T's original name; it is a smaller version of the older Bell System connectors

by LukeShu 1y ago
RJ45 is a keyed 8-position jack, not a normal 8-position jack. ("Keyed" means that there's a notch in the side making it a different shape; you would not be able to fit an "Ethernet" connector into it.) Closer is

I would agree with you that DTLS is a misnomer; that it does not provide the layer-4/transport-layer -like interface that regular TLS provides. (It isn't quite a layer-3/internetwork-layer -like interface; from the UDP that i

No? The "transport" layer is layer 4 in the 7-layer OSI model (physical/datalink/network/transport/session/presentation/application) and 5-layer IP model (physical/network/internetwork/

`printf -v` was added in Bash 3.1 (2005). I think revisions of ABS predates that; but ABS has certainly been updated since then (last in 2014), and has no excuse for not including it.

@Q was added in Bash 4.4 (2016), ABS was last updated in 2014.

Very cool hack. But, as okanat says, if the goal is to run legacy operating systems, then modern hardware is going to be challenging in other ways too. IME the biggest thing I want PC BIOS back for is the ability to use non-GPT disk layout

When I was working with Envoy Proxy, it was known that perf was worse with musl than with glibc. We went through silly hoops to have a glibc Envoy running in an Alpine (musl) container.

It's not emulating a crippled chip, it runs on the i486SX (which has no FPU, by artificial limitation or not), and emulates an x87 FPU.

Scanning input just is unrelated to the "modified while running" problem. The "modified while running" problem is a read-buffering problem. For example, consider the following change: -echo $x; rm -rf /n&#x2F

Amazonbot doesn't respect the `Crawl-Delay` directive. To be fair, Crawl-Delay is non-standard, but it is claimed to be respected by the other 3 most aggressive crawlers I see. And how often does it check robots.txt? ClaudeBot will mak
