Have you noticed that there's a scramble to RISC-V?

This is exactly my point! If you put hardware designed to do the job of a terminal on a serial line, you expect software that is supposed to be command line based to just work (according to the issue in the post it doesn't work with th

So you agree, sending non-vt220 codes to a vt220 device is unacceptable? :)

Continually repeating something does not make it true. The default terminal size is 80 columns by 24 rows. Making an assumption the rows/columns of a terminal are zero is certainly surprising and unreasonable. Some questions; Why is fi

I'd say that this violates the "Principle of least astonishment".

Indeed. Unix even has it. https://www.rigacci.org/docs/biblio/online/sysadmin/ch21.htm

You forgot TCL and Perl. Both have been dead for many more years... At least C (and C++) will never fully die.

Php has been dead for years.

Certain BYOD email suites use https encapsulation of another protocol (also using TLS) to ensure that the data can go through firewalls that do MITM attacks on clients for security reasons. Bluecoat do this for example. I believe they also

SDIO used to be quite common. Back when PDAs didn't have WiFi as standard, SDIO was the only way to fit them. In fact, if I recall correctly my GPD Pocket doodah has SDIO wifi. The bus isn't unusual, at all. As for weird broadcom

Ping with embedded +++ATH worked too on some modems! Of course you needed to have the nous to do this in the first place and a IRC server that showed users host names/ip adresses- I fear that I’m showing my age !

I also hooked my CCTV through homebridge recently with the aformentioned plugins ... it was a bonus, because with IFTTT effectively going payware, I needed to move my automation somewhere else

NVidia drivers b0rked rebooting my box for a long time. A couple of months ago, I removed all the references in apt sources, and followed the newer instructions (several times to get the right driver/cuda/tensorflow match) and my

Then you're clearly a statistical outlier :)

That's incredibly tenuous. Also I don't think you know much about asymmetric encryption or the SSH protocol either.

by opless 6y ago
It's not even that. I have certain hosts behind a single IP and forward SSH to them on arbitrarily chosen ports. Do I still get random logins on those ports? Why yes I do. Does putting SSH on a different port make any difference? No it

You'll find that regular fertilizer has explosion retardant additives. Which made me think (and was confirmed later) that the Beirut explosion was 'weapons grade' ammonium nitrate, rather than the stuff sold to civilians. For

Hi, can you explain what a ' Yudkowsian self-optimizer ' is? I've googled it and the only page that it comes up with is this one! :-)

Best thing for ARM to do is IPO. As far as I understand this is all rumour still.

Certainly would like to see this also; Would be quite good content to let other places know too - hackaday for example.

Sometimes the solution is 'not to do that bad thing' and quite often there's no going back from that.

There's clearly no planning for a solution, I think that's what GP is getting at.

... as I said ‘where appropriate’. However I don’t think for one minute that you’re going to get that super fast data everywhere. :-)

I said ‘where appropriate’. It’s unlikely to be rolled out fully throughout the entirety of the providers network. So you’ll see it in high density areas where people are mostly outside. As I said, malls etc. Also higher speeds at the regul
