if you've ever messed up a dimension or a hole position on something you're building, don't be too hard on yourself.

at least you're not the Cisco design engineer who caused an entire product line recall by placing the mode button (which resets the switch if held) directly above an RJ45 port.

I'm super happy to share, that the (Gen. 6) was just announced, and we've been able to already publish a lot of code for it!

* support is submitted
* 59(!) patches were sent to bring up upstream on the SM7635 SoC and enable the device.
* The stock Android source code is public on code.fairphone.com

This has been a lot of work over the last couple of months so it's awesome to finally be able to share it!

I cannot in good faith recommend Xlibre.
Why? Because its author has been spreading anti-vaxx lies and nazi propaganda on mailing lists for a little while now. The Xlibre README is also full of lies and dogwhistles.

In fact, let's waste 5 minutes of your time and analyze the README together!

I'm on a mission to create a dialup ISP in my room, and I now have a working telephone exchange to hang it all off of.

Now I'm just on the hunt for some olde modems.

The exchange is a very simple combination of Asterisk (on NixOS, on an old Apple Trashcan), with some Cisco 2-line ATAs and twinkle/BT Big Button phones.

( @eloy , I've been told you might enjoy! )

this purism blog post marketing about firmware security is wild

In the case of the Librem 5 smartphone, there is no Intel ME or AMD PSP at allβ€”offering a truly transparent architecture.

Yet the Librem 5 has a proprietary boot ROM, additional ROM code for root of trust validation, a modem running proprietary firmware (connected via USB)

most importantly, I don't believe they actually enable secure boot, so if you're able to gain root access you could trivially replace the trustzone firmware with a modified version

To not go into any detail about the security model is pretty wild for a post titled "Hidden Operating Systems in Chips vs. Secure, Auditable OSes: A Cybersecurity Comparison"...
