  6. NEVER ATTACK the #FreeSoftware / #OpenSource software community if your customer base is exclusively the #Maker community! They have a huge overlap. You might as well shutter your business instead.

  15. FPGA-PlayStation

    Just discovered that Taki Udon's FPGA-based #PlayStation is finally out and apparently it's the best way to play #PS1 #games right now, real #hardware accuracy without the original #console degrading over time. This is what #retrogaming #preservation actually looks like, not remasters, not subscriptions, just proper #FPGA tech doing the work. Huge win for players.

  25. This is the LCD menu on the USBridge KVM 2.0.
    • Disks — mount/unmount virtual disks and ISO images directly from the device.
    • Snapshots — view the snapshot history
    • Event Log — log history.
    • Settings — token, network configuration, display, firmware version.
    • Monitor — video output for quick host diagnostics.

    There’s one thing I still need to fix—graphics rendering on the KVM screen. Anti-aliasing is practically nonexistent right now. It works, but it looks ugly. I just haven’t had time to work on it yet.

    #homelab #KVM #sysadmin #AI #automation #ssh #openhardware

  26. @marcus I'd love to have such a device. But it need to be open sourced on the software side as a bare minimum.

    Otherwise, enshittification is doomed to happen.

    I did that mistake with #Kobo devices. They are luckily partly hackable, so I hope we will see what happens here with more alternative firmware (not just the "add-on" on top of the native Kobo OS).

    But as far as I've seen with #remarkable is that these devices are fare more closed on all ends.

    Preferably, I want a hackable device which can fully support #E2EE and be audited with having a sane implementation.

  27. Creation of a new job board around open models directly on the knowledge base: open-models.org/jobs/

    Explore jobs related to open science, open education, open software, open hardware... All in the same place which you can also follow using an RSS feed 😉

    The aim is to create a collaborative job board; if your organization has any offers or if you find one online! Please share them directly on the GitHub repository or communicate it by any means like in comments here.

    The current offers:
    - Various offers to set up for the founding team of the European Digital Infrastructure Consortium (@Digital Commons EDIC): Operations Manager; Programme & Technical Manager; Ecosystem & Partnerships Manager; Office, Events & Communications Coordinator
    - Librarian Research Support Specialist at the @University of Luxembourg to support researchers on their open science and open data practices. A job that will certainly be about being FAIR.
    - Project Manager (M/F/X) Open Digital Publishing at @University of Liège for the development and coordination of open scientific publishing projects and the management of publishing portals
    - Commons Project Manager for Socially Responsible Digital Reuse Initiatives at @Emmaüs France to organize and lead a national network by developing shared tools and a shared governance structure.

    It is offers found manually through monitoring of social media, we may gather more together to help people find a job or support the growth of open projects. Will be more and more interesting for everyone as the surrounding community grow.

    For more technicality and to follow open data/open standards, all job offers are based on a JSON-LD format following the JobPosting standard from scheme.org. It may enable interoperability and reuse of the data elsewhere 🤷

    Let's build a good place to share jobs around open models?

  32. Power Management Module — It took me three iterations to get the module ready for mass production.
    V0.1 — Hand-soldered; not the prettiest, but it worked.
    V0.2 — A larger, neater board, but still in the prototype stage.
    V1 — custom PCB, heat-shrink tubing, ships with USBridge KVM 2.0.
    It is this small board that allows you to perform a full reset or reboot of the server from anywhere in the world.

  33. Most KVM solutions stream video. That means any automation script — or AI agent — has to deal with pixels.
    Mine streams the BIOS as plain text over SSH.
    Structured output. JSON-parseable. Color metadata included.
    An agent can:

    Read BIOS state
    Check for errors
    Navigate menus
    Inject keystrokes

    No vision model needed. Just text.

  34. A neat respin on an existing open-source PCB design next, to adapt the M.2 slot on a #RaspberryPi CM5 IO Board for USB - so that you can (just about!) squeeze an RTL-SDR dongle into the Raspberry Pi CM5 IO Case.

    You can even route the RP-SMA connector out the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth antenna hole, which is nice! Permissive MIT licence, too.

  36. Got tired of dragging a monitor to the rack just to get into the BIOS.
    So I built a KVM that converts the firmware screen into live text — piped straight into an SSH terminal. Arrow keys inject HID keystrokes. No browser, no cloud, no video stream.
    This is what it looks like in practice.

  37. MNT Station lets you repurpose a MNT Reform mainboard as a mini PC

    Five years after starting to ship its first open source, modular laptop, the folks at MNT Research are expanding beyond laptops (and mini-laptops) into desktops. The MNT Station is an upcoming mini PC that’s designed for use as a standalone computer, network-attached storage device, or media center.

    And since the MNT Station uses the same mainboard as a MNT Reform, you should be able to buy […]
