I just got my hands on one of these through the indiegogo campaign. Really cool! I just got micropython running, going to sit down with it this weekend

Oh come on, I'm no fan of Oracle but this is some FUD nonesense..

I do the exact same thing. Though I will admit that I gave up the last time I tried compiling CDE on Linux hah.

FYI: I keep getting "Oops, something went wrong" with any address that I try in chrome and firefox.

Looks really cool though!

This is about Spectre, not Meltdown, which is about speculative execution. From the article:

> Apple released iOS 11.2.2 update to address Spectre security issues.

I'm not sure why Meltdown was added to the HN title...

I thought that was sketchy too but it occurred to me that they probably are hosting this site with github but are using their own domain name.

sqlmap.org turns out to me an A record for an IP address owned by github.

It seems like the ThunderX chips from Cavium are the most prevalent 64-bit arm marketed as server platforms. Very high core count, high memory capacity.. I've been hoping that these things take off because I love the idea: http://www.cavium.com/ThunderX_ARM_Processors.html

System76 has a server using this chipset: https://system76.com/servers/starling

and Gigabyte has a whole line of them: http://b2b.gigabyte.com/ARM-Server/Cavium-ThunderX

I've been beating my head against the wall for weeks trying to compile rustc/cargo on Openindiana. I want it so that I can compile a recent version firefox and/or thunderbird for Openindiana, both of which require rustc and cargo.

Very true.

Well, the idea is that maybe the command 'go' is different on different build systems/targets and if you need to change it to something else (go-x86, or something like that) then it's going to be more difficult the way you wrote things.

I discovered the Illumos project about a year ago and was extatic to see that Open Solaris had come back to life. I've been using OpenIndiana as my daily driver at work for a while now.

I'm in the process of recovering from a serious addiction to furanyl-fentanyl. I don't really care to get too into it, I really can't explain the pain that stuff has caused me. I've been through a lot in life, but I've never been through anything so traumatic.. This stuff is a nightmare like you can't possibly understand without being there yourself, I hope none of you ever find yourself in that position.. I've been in a methadone program for the past 6 months now. We really need to put money into treatment, the program that I'm in literally saved my life. I'm lucky enough to have insurance that actually covers most of the cost, but most people in my situation don't have that luxury.

I'm not a gamer by any stretch, but is Portal really an indie game?

I didn't declare anything... I have no opinion here, I was just explaining what the other guy was saying.

He did a perfectly fine job of reading your comment... you implied that you only cared about certain variables, "peripherals, power, tools, size, price". vertex-four points out that "x86 IoT devices" (ie these Intel chips we are talking about) are a bad choice in regard to those things that you care about...

Is it just me or am I the only one who is a bit hesitant to submit the public IP/hostname to some random service on the web. I'm not trying to say that the creator of this has any ill intent, but I also don't know that they aren't cataloging addresses of potentially vulnerable ssh daemons.

Anyway.. just to reiterate I'm not trying accuse you of anything OP. Very cool utility, nice work!

I almost guarantee the damage is done immediately once the browser tries to read that file.. The reason it took a moment for your system to crash is because it took a moment for whatever the process was that actually hung to try to read from disk.

That's not true at all. Were you paying attention to the development of bitcoin asics? Those things popped up fast once the idea spread.

The user who submitted this to HN is not the same person who owns this github repo.

If that's the case then you should just go buy a sparc server off of ebay. I bought a Sun t1000 for $80 with shipping that has a 6 core sparc t1 with 24 threads.. and for a few hundred more you can get 128 threads in one 2u server! I suppose not everyone wants to write code for sparc (or keep a noisy server in your home office), but if all you're doing is web dev like the guy in this post then it doesn't really make much of a difference.

Just a heads up, you can view the entire article as one page by clicking the "Print this Article" button: http://www.anandtech.com/print/11244/the-amd-ryzen-5-1600x-v...

You can run 32bit code on x86-64 processors, although that's not an ideal solution but you could definitely run it.

Ok that makes sense, thanks!

Is it really that concerning? What's the worst case scenario here? If the worst thing that can happen is you get served audio that you weren't expecting then I don't really see the big deal. I'm not immediately aware of any way that someone might use this as an attack vector, but then I'm not really a security guy..

> If you haven't used a BB product, check out the thing that I think is the biggest upside of these...the built in pair of PRUs.

I've been looking at boards for days now trying to find the perfect one to suit my needs and this is exactly what I've been looking for. I've seen the beagleboard before but I never noticed this feature before. I'm glad I saw this post this morning!

I'm not feeling like a victim, I'm extremely lucky and I know that. I admitted to that.. The unadulterated hell I was referring to is the excruciating pain that comes with opiate withdrawal...

To give you some further perspective here, I was sexually abused as a child. I would rather go through that 100 times before I would go through bad withdrawal again... Fuck off.

Thanks, I really appreciate it! All things considered things are actually going really well. My relationship with my SO is better than ever, my career is going well, I'm actually starting a new job next week. I managed to keep my life together through all of this, and I know I'm very lucky for that.

It actually didn't start with a prescription.. For me it started as casual use here and there and very quickly turned into self-medication. I've had issues with depression and anxiety for a long time and opiates were a really easy way of dealing with those problems. However I can't tell you how many people I knew who started using after being prescribed opioid painkillers.

Opiate addiction is hell. Just pure unadulterated hell. I've been through a lot of hardships in life but I honestly can't begin to explain to you the amount of pain this has caused me. I'm currently in a methadone program after relapsing for the first time since I got clean five years ago. Just.. stay as far away from this stuff as you possibly can. It has the potential to swallow you whole.

Man, those die images are phenomenal.
