Pour leur faire remplir complètement leur fonction... distribuons les à l'unité et pas dans des blisters (PVC + alu).

Même aux États-Unis ils le font !
Pourtant, pas réputer pour être un pays écolo :).

najgorzej jest, jak coś jest na BGA, a nie masz odpowiednich narzędzi do tego... całe szczęście, że na ulicach zdarzają się mili panowie w dresach, który pomogą, a nawet sami chcą pomóc - "przylutować Ci?"

Dosłownie wczoraj sprawdzaliśmy i rzeczywiście, oscylator nie był dobrze przylutowany, akcelerator do Amigi 1200 działa. Dzięki za radę!

Now in the retrocomputing devroom, learning how to translate binaries of the game console NES to modern processors. (Not JIT, static translation)

Going to LLVM which then produces the real code.

Cannot yet run all the NES games. But it can run #Pacman

Now, let's hack a Z80. The "Mail station" ("email without a PC").
"Internet appliances" were common at this time.

#FOSDEM

in reply to Stéphane Bortzmeyer

Software updates were done by email, carrying arbitrary Z80 code.

The only protection was... SimpleDES (10 bits key).

Since the original infrastructure for the machine no longer exists, hack is needed.

Digging into an old Belgian computer, MMIF (1952-1962).

Inaugurated by the king.

At the end, 13 meters, 5000 vacuum tubes, 25 kW of power.

Harvard architecture (code and data were completely separated).

#FOSDEM

in reply to Stéphane Bortzmeyer

Biquinary encoding. Unlike binary, there are more 0 and less 1 because 1 used more power (and 1 which were too close could interfere).

#FOSDEM

in reply to Stéphane Bortzmeyer

Now, creating an Internet access provider, with modems. Make 1990 great again.

Why doing it? Because it is fun but also because in some cases, it can circumvent censorship (Egypt, 2011).

On Linux, with ppp and mgetty (and systemd!).

so you are running a digitally-encoded « pseudo-analog » signal, over optic fiber acting as if it were copperwire? What a weird looping are we in!
in reply to Godefroy_B

@Godefroy_B Indeed, one of the problems is that, even if you find an old land line, sooner or later, your "phone" call wll go over VoIP and strange things will happen.

I wonder if it would work ove 5G with an acoustic coupler?

Ma période "évangéliste" qui me saute à la tronche de bon matin. Des souvenirs de quand j'étais avec le collectif @giroll qui remontent.



Do you repost content from other social platforms to the fediverse? e.g. reddit, instagram, etc? Do you link or use a screenshot?

(I'm not as thoughtful as @evan so don't come at me about poll question design).

#polls #fediverse #socialmedia

  • Yes, unreservedly link out to everywhere (25%, 24 votes)
  • Yes, but only screenshots and/or specific sites (14%, 13 votes)
  • No, but I dont care if others do (43%, 40 votes)
  • Never ever I hate everything about the idea (17%, 16 votes)
93 voters. Poll end: in 1 day

@Maj - 🇨🇦 @Evan Prodromou I repost stuff from other Fediverse platforms then the one I am using - yes.

And I have to admit, that in most cases I don't think about how these postings might look in a microblogging environment (sorry for that 😉)
