I know that I've mentioned it a few times before (and undoubtedly will again), but @hughsie's Linux Vendor Firmware Service and accompanying firmware update tools is an absolutely brilliant project, bringing a really valuable tool to Linux: firmware updates from vendors, available easily within Linux:
@why_not Wäre ja dafür ne #Pflicht für #degoogled-#Firmware einzuführen!
@n_to Nimm' im Zweifel lieber 24/7-zertifizierte Platten die auch für die Bestückungsdichte (wegen Vibratiomen) geeignet sind.

Canon-Warnung: Druckertreiber ermöglichen Codeschmuggel
Canon hat eine Warnung vor Sicherheitslücken in Druckertreibern veröffentlicht. Angreifer könnten Code einschleusen. Auch in einige Drucker.
@Yuki @OS1337 @bjornsdottirs no need to go beyond 1440kB when using mlb instead of #syslinux (which wastes 200kB on it's own!)
Needless to say the core idea is to be a continuation of #tmsrtbt and a "minimalist #linux distro" as in "#SSH #Terminal #Firmware"...

This project is hardcore! #OpenSource, #hardware, #firmware and #software. You can buy pre-flashed hardware.
The catch? It's not clear what components to buy or why, and the setup process is so difficult, it's effectively your new hobby.
I expect it'll get better as out gets more popular and more people contribute to the documentation.
Breathe new life into your old Raspberry Pi with light open source router firmware

„I have this old keyboard. You can have it. It has these digital sounds we were into back then because we were fed up with the 70ties. It needs a new battery.”
After learning that the guy was talking about his old #Ensoniq #ESQ1, I said yes without even looking at it. It was made almost 40 years ago. It has 8bit #wavetable oscillators and analog Curtis filters.
As with old cars with a flat tire, you soon notice that the tire is not big problem at all… somebody had replaced the pcb-mounted battery by one floating around in there, being easier to replace. I ordered a replacement part.
It turned out, that most of the keys didn't work any more. Luckily the keyboard is a very simple construction. So I inhaled a lot of Kontakt60 vapours, and while I was at it removed the nicotine residues from everything using alcohol… until I got a bad headache.
Does anybodyknow if I can upgrade the #firmware of this #synthesizer using the version 3.5 chips available from Ebay? Or does it depend on PCB bord revisions?
IBM is building up a new #IBM development location in #Waterford #Ireland . The focus of the team will be industrial research related to the low level #Linux kernel and #firmware development for the #ibmz .
This will be a unique opportunity to shape for the Linux #opensource Ecosystem!
Are you interested in developing operating systems and contributing to Open-Source and eager to become part of an worldwide #development community?

Cool, a new #alarmo update. And with the thing selling out at multiple Nintendo stores (despite the steep price tag), this will probably continue to have more updates in the future.
