The rowhammer test program consistently finds one of my systems (i7 3770k, z77) vulnerable in <10s. This is a system that passed several days of memtest86+.

They mean no powerpc or other non-intel chips. I've run it on several x86_64/amd64/x64 processors.

I really like the emacs inspired interface. I would use conkeror for everything if it worked with noscript.

Open source means you have the right to modify and redistribute. If you want to express a different idea use a different term.

It's frustrating because the same argument could be made about any freedom. It's always a small minority that needs it. How many individuals really need the first amendment? The Saudi kids in my undergrad PoliSci classes loved to

Two months ago OpenBSD removed the unused stdlib.h include which was present since they forked from NetBSD in March 1995. http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/bin/echo/echo.c...

Thanks for the feedback. I've had problems with this in HP and Levovo laptops before.

From the link: you could replace the bluetooth/wireless card with a different one. Can you really? Many laptops have whitelists and if a device doesn't present the correct pci id it won't be enabled by the bios.

https://packages.debian.org/experimental/gcc-5 Debian has gcc-5 in experimental. A fact I'm taking advantage of because I want to get Docker working on my sparc server but gccgo is broken on 4.9. It was fixed a fe

For that purpose it would serve fine. You could try and contact the person at kd85.com. They formerly sold lemotes and maybe have a few laying around.

The Lemote Yeelong is very slow, comparable to the 1.6GHz atom netbooks of 2008. You'd be better off with a thinkpad x60 with libreboot installed.

RMS doesn't care about "open source", something he will gladly remind you of if you use that phrase in his presence. His position in this matter is long-standing and consistent with his principles. That's how you have to
