I can just imagine the report: Hai there, kernel guys. Now... assuming you first rob a museum for a working ARM7TDMI-based board, then find a way to flash it with a kernel and a rootfs to boot it, and if your kernel has an obscure and not-u

That only dumps the data. That’s the easy part. None of that dumps the melodies. The pin outs that page links to are also not quite accurate. I need to finish editing my other article on this. I have indeed looked into the original Pixter.

I have an upcoming article on Pixter itself which includes giving them a LOT of credit for cost cutting. There are some quite clever things there. I also worked out how to dump games (not easy with those damn melody chips, or what did you c

Possible user-space DoS on Linux when running on an ARM7 CPU in just two instructions. Would that be a record? If the kernel was configured to support OABI (exclusively or together with EABI), I think the following two-ARM-instr binary will

If you needed to ask the permission of every apparatchik in the world before you said anything online, you wouldn't even be allowed to say "no comment". Glad someone is fighting this and doing so publicly. And the GRANITE act

A country may vet entrants according to any criteria it chooses, just like I may enforce any limits I wish unto who may enter my house. If the criteria are too egregious for the gain the applicants might get by being in that country, the ta

Not in America. In America, lack of government intervention is the norm. Which is probably why almost all the large companies in the world and most successful startups are here and not in Europe. Also probably why the standard of living is
