Out there, in the worrying world of today is a little #Zilog #Z80 computer with a mere 64KB of #RAM and running the #1970s CP/M operating system.

This little machine is connected to the #intertubes and it's serving a #singleuser #bulletinboardsystem for you, the worrying souls of #yesteryears to visit.

Take a break from today, connect like it's 1985 - here on RC-BOX BBS, the world's first and (currently) only #rc2014 based bulletin board system in the world!

Check out the #alttext or my #profile info for information on how to connect.

#Framework #Desktop wows #iFixit – even with the soldered #RAM
The main bugbear is the soldered-down memory, rather than the slot-in memory modules that allow most PCs to be upgraded to a higher capacity if required. The reason for this design choice is that Framework went with #AMD's #Ryzen AI Max processors, which feature an integrated #Radeon 8060S #GPU and need to have the #LPDDR5x memory closely coupled to enable the 256 GBps memory bandwidth for high performance.

#MetalMonday:
Ritual Wine Vessel (gong) in the Shape of a #Ram 青銅羊觥
China, Yangzi River region, Late Shang Dynasty 1200s–1000s BCE
Bronze, 22 cm (8 11/16 in.)
On display at Cleveland Museum of Art
“Did You Know?
While the craftsman embellished the vessel with fantastic forms and symbolic patterns, the design also captures anatomical features of a real ram, such as its ‘comma’-shaped nostrils, eyes with elongated orbits, and horns with parallel ridges.”

#38C3: Oh my! Was it 10 years already?

In “Ten Years of Rowhammer: A Retrospect (and Path to the Future)”, I learned what happened in the time since the #Rowhammer attack.

Apparently the attack still hasn't been spotted in the wild and nobody knows why. But a LOT of research has been done (>=500 papers only in 2024). This talk gives a nice overview of the research and the security cat-and-mouse game that happened.

Another good talk. 👍
