Fedora/RISC-V
It has just been announced that the RISC-V port for Fedora is in a stage where others can help out. Didn’t check this out so far, but maybe I have time to look at it in the next weeks.
Solarzellenständer
Brauchte für eine Solarzelle einen Ständer, damit die nicht nur nutzlos flach auf dem Tisch liegt. Kurzerhand wieder mal was mit Holz gemacht:
Mit so einer Solarzelle kann man übrigens auch super auf Meshnetzwerkjagd gehen, wenn man sowas in dem einen oder anderen Busch im Garten vermutet:
(Man beachte auch den Apfelpflücker, mit Antenne zum Meshpflücken!)
Surfing with IPv6-only in 2016
Four years after the World IPv6 Launch I wonder how the world of the web looks through the IPv6-only lens. Let’s find out!
# ip a d 10.5.23.42/24 dev enp2s0
So where do I start out? Uh, well. Ah, maybe there is an IPv6 Subreddit. Let’s see…
Excellent! Let’s get some news and comments about IPv6!
Oh well, that trip ended quite soon. Maybe I’ll just read about tech…
Didn’t they run a series about IPv6? Well, let’s look at what my friends are up to.
Hm. This is unsatisfactory. I should buy some shit. Let’s see if I have still some money from that refund to burn through.
Well, maybe I’ll just browse.
I could sell something I don’t need!
I see, I see. I should do something productive. I wanted to search for a solution for that unit test I needed to write. Let’s see.
Uhm, well. I guess I should just update the README file for my project.
Oh come on! This is exhausting. Enough for today, just going to watch some videos about big explosions and cats, and then I’ll hit the sack.
…
Please don’t kill me!
It is a bit sad that so few of the bigger sites I frequent support IPv6. And yes, there are probably some hard engineering problems behind that, or just some harsh, cold business realities. You can’t really make money with IPv6. On the plus side: It seems that you can’t spend a lot of money in the IPv6 sphere either. It is also quite distraction free.
RISC-V News Collection
I was talking to a friend about RISC-V and it turned out that he was interested in it, so I decided to start a collection of news and other bits around RISC-V. Every now and then I stalk the ecosystem around RISC-V. I am, as a user, interested in using a completely open source CPU.
The collection can be found here, which is just a page that includes all posting I marked to be about riscv.
There is a lot more out there — but here are some starting points.
-
RISC-V
-
lowRISC, RISC-V SoC project
-
BOOM, RISC-V out-of-order processor
-

PULP, RISC-V microcontroller
Sieve
Ich habe mal unter knowledge/sieve grob — auf Englisch — dokumentiert, was ich bei mir so mit Sieve filtern anstelle. Vielleicht ist das ja nützlich für irgendjemanden.
