Just poking some registers to send an Ethernet frame kind of hand-waves all of the ACPI table lookup, AML parsing, PCIe root/bridge init, etc, so in that regard "mov dx,0x3f8 ; out dx,al" is more simple and reliable - USB nee

DNS is only as stale as the cache that you trust. If the cache is not adhering to DNS standards then it is probably not one you should be trusting. Nothing is stopping a DNS client contacting the authoritative nameservers without a cache,

I was just thinking this looks similar to a DDI (Data Documentation Initiative) citation element, but the advantage of the DDI XML schema is that one can annotate any existing element in an XML document by importing the DDI namespace, which

The 120k+ lines of code in drivers/tty/serial in Linux suggests that maybe it's not _that_ trivial.

Except "evenly" is not a standard, or something that anyone other than the manufacturer can verify, it's hidden in the firmware so we have no idea really.

Was there any hardware/software which actually did this? I can't think of any games console hardware which allowed a combination of more than two shears by modification of sprite/bg offset registers, it was either X, Y, or X+

IMO because you can configure the BMC to use it's own dedicated NIC and network. That network should have no routing to the Internet and no production traffic, just BMC management. When Intel ME shares the NIC used for the OS traffic

If you don't have a lightbox, a long exposure (15-30 seconds, might need a very small f-stop or ND filter) and waving an LED torch around the PCB is almost as good at removing all the shadows, but less consistent.
