ENTSO-E has just released its comprehensive factual report on the April 28th Iberian blackout.

TIFO axspawn (the linux utility to handle incoming AX.25 connections) has a built-in inline compression feature (your client needs to send "//COMP ON\n" once the LAPB bearer is established. Axspawn then sends "\rCOMP 1\r" and turns on huffman compression).
The only software, to my knowledge, able to turn on such compression is TNT ( home.snafu.de/wahlm/tntdoc.htm… ).
Some TNC may be able to handle it on the fly, but I've not tried it.
Currently working on an ALS162 time receiver. Getting my paws on NF C 90-002 really helped to think of an easier strategy to acquire and sync with the signal.
Turns out this signal is a 40Bd 3-state TCM.
First step, however, is to write a stub that will generate a baseband clone of the signal. For now I'm able to generate a static frame. The scrambler is implemented, and I'm working on the CRC-13.

@azonenberg exacty — also, DTBs don't know how much RAM you have, the board revision, ... It's just unmanageable for users.
RISC-V, in the spec, say that the DRAM init code shall deliver a device tree to any later stages, with the hardware inventory hardcoded,
In practice, I need U-Boot specifically to patch the broken device tree. If it were correct, I could use Linux directly after the DRAM init code.
@GyrosGeier > how much ram
Isn't that the whole point of SPD (since PCs ~always used DIMM/SODIMM based memory)? You just need some board-independent init code that reads the eeprom from each slot, figures out how much is there, and brings it up.
I don't see why you need per-board firmware when the entire point of the eeprom is discoverability.

De moins en moins d'écrans CRT fonctionnent et c'est normal, les composants s'usent notamment les condensateurs. Beaucoup d'écrans ont été jetés et ça devient de plus en plus rare d'en trouver alors si possible ne les jetez pas, vendez-les ou donnez-les pour pièces.

Tech is political.
You encode your values, your attitude and your bias into the code.
The tech you create can give you legitimacy. It can give you influence. Get rich enough (or start out rich enough) you get doors opened to you.
It's all power.
We can see what some people in tech do with that power.
We can however choose to not contribute to that enablement.
You're in FOSS you've made some sacrifices.
What's a little more?

In the last year, I’ve spent about 200,000 words on a kind of personal journey where I’ve tried again and again to work out why everything digital feels so broken, and why it seems to keep getting worse, despite what tech’s “brightest” minds might pr…Edward Zitron (Ed Zitron's Where's Your Ed At)

By that time we were able to stop using the 1, but it was still "local long distance" for a few years after that, at least. I have no idea when the area started requiring 10 digit dialing because I had stopped using a land line by early 2007.
I can't talk about phone switching without sharing the "Speedy Cutover Service" video from the 80s.

@f4grx I will make some burning this week. I can "take orders" if some of you wants. Lets say I can book a total of 10 blank slate coasters for mastodon people.
I need a picture B&W (or vectorized) for ~9x9cm (the tile is 10x10cm but the hammered edges prevents nice result)
I propose 4€ each (without postage cost, to be added depending where you live).
First come, first served.

Well if vince fires up the laser again I'd be interested!
(Maybe one with Yaronet's logo/Boo ^^)
