If you're at #froscon you should come visit #coreboot stand. Near the entrance to the food court to the left :)

Apparently people at DefCon are getting their hotel rooms searched for:
- FT232H
- STM32 devboard(?)
- Breadboards
- Logic analyzers
- Soldering irons
- Flipper Zero
- Lockpicking tools
I get lockpicking tools (though Lockpicking Lawyer would disagree), but the rest?
Glad I never planned to go to one, I would get busted so hard they'd take me straight to prison (as I carry FT232H, ESPs, soldering irons and logic analyser with me to every con/conference I attend).
America is truly a meme state.

I thought Tom's hardware was a reputable source of news and reviews... but apparently not
https://www.tomshardware.com/software/windows/microsofts-eu-agreement-means-it-will-be-hard-to-avoid-crowdstrike-like-calamities-in-the-future
Seriously though, what the fuck is this article even going on about? Why are they trying to demonize EU for something perfectly normal?
Anyone who understands the architecture of operating systems know that 3rd party companies need access to kernel API to develop their software (especially device drivers).

Dear dog, what have I brought upon this unholy world infra. I’m going to hell for this, guaranteed :meowdevil:

Remember when Google said they’ll be bringing “ChromeOS and Android ecosystems together”?
Surprise surprise, they lied.
They laid off almost all employees working on ChromeOS and made a clear stance that Android will be replacing it altogether at some point in the future.

I wanted to bring erying motherboard to FOSDEM, but been told there won't be enough time to hack on it (sadly).
That being said, we've figured out the issue with interrupt routing. Gen4 NVME works correctly now!
https://github.com/ellyq/coreboot/commit/a1b6143f8da98d8b9c265b376e4d4368d435bf60
Port seems to be in a fairly good state now, should start upstreaming it sometime next month.
I will be bringing a MacBook to work on kernel stuff, as well as two Chromebooks instead (as I'm hunting active regressions in SOF and EC on ARM64).
Thanks @npub1e95…7y98 for talking me into going btw, I would've skipped it otherwise :neocat_blep:

Yay, we received first hateful comment!
FOSS project: *adopts LGBT colours in their logo to show respect for contributors*
Bigots: PROPAGANDA EVERYWHERE, I'LL DO IT MY WAY!!!
Here's the truth: They won't.
Bigots lack the mindset required to be a good engineer, as well as education.
Every educated person (don't confuse it with degree) accepts others as they are, because no human is illegal.
We've seen few projects trying to do it "better" than us, and utterly failing to achieve anything meaningful. Destroying people's machines in the process and blaming their users.
That's the reason why so many FOSS projects show some sort of sign that LGBT people are welcome.
We're not an exception, and we'll do everything we can to make people feel welcomed and safe.
We're even joking that you can tell the quality of code produced by a certain project by the amount of catgirls involved... but there's some truth to it :blobcatblep:
Anyway, I'm happy our logo acts as deterrent for awful people :)
