Someone sent me an Orange Pi 5 Pro the other day for repair and sadly I was not able to fix it, thought the issue was quite obvious.
RK806-1 PMIC not only blew up - it catched fire and welded itself to the board so badly that I was unable to remove it. It also took an SY8089AAC with it.

How did that happen? He used a DC-DC step-down converter. No idea why and how, but I''d avoid using those converters at all costs.

Dear #RetroComputing #PDP8 enthusiasts, do any of you have a neglected #PiDP8 that you no longer use? Was it a fun lockdown toy that you no longer interact with? Are you within postal distance of #London? If so, get in touch: I'm working on a project in PAL assembler and would love to have the front switches and lights, but not enough to order and assemble the thing.

I can replace the #SBC inside, if you already scavenged it for something else! I just wonder if anyone has one taking up space that they'd rather use for something else these days.

As #Thanksgiving2024 approaches, we're launching ArmSoM's inaugural #giveaway to express our gratitude for your unwavering support!🎁

The world of integrated circuits is a whole lot more interelated than we think;

I got curious about why #Broadcom makes the #SoC for the best-selling #computer of all time and yet they don't make any other consumer computers.

Turns out that the #BCM series of chips is used in lots of other places; network equipment, phones, wearables, set-top boxes, infotainment systems in cars!

There are #RaspberryPis everywhere!

@bls @arrjay I KNOW how to manually encrypt stuff - that's not the point.

  • My point is that this is some 3rd party afterthought and not like with #amd64-Versions of the same distros [ @ubuntu, @opensuse, #Debian ) like an option one can choose at an #installer level from a live system.

It's most likely the reason why @tails_live / @tails / #Tails didn't get a #port to #ARM64 to this day...

Wanted to share a recent project of mine from past few weeks to turn my #nanopi r5s #sbc into a really potent pure debian Linux router that was sane to manage.

I was able to successfully switch over this weekend and retire my edgerouter-6p.

The formula is basically #ansible #systemd stuff #netplan #dnsmasq #frrouting and #foomuuri -- the lynchpin solution for sanely doing robust zone-to-zone firewalls using #nftables
