      According to this article you should be able to compile it for ARM pretty easily on the Pi.

      @Jason said in Schlage Sense Smart Lock:

      It's all encyprted using your iCloud Keychain and HomeKit uses AppleTV as a relay rather than exposing directly. Seriously you don't want lock makers (looking at you kwikset, they made bad locks anyway though) handling the Network security site of it.

      Assuming of course the lock makers didn't futz the implementation details, or actually issue updates for any unforseen problems in the future.

    • RE: Latest from Lenovo - locked in to Windows

      Matthew Garret of CoreOS on Twitter (@mjg59)

      Lenovo aren't deliberately blocking free software on recent laptops (spoiler: it's Intel's fault)

      Tweet

      OH MY GOD the person who started the Lenovo shitstorm is Ryan Farmer https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Microsoft-Signature-PC-No-Linux …, who spammed me after I debunked him in 2008

      Tweet

      Summary: This guy has a history of making over the top accusations, and responds badly when called on it. Don't enable him.

      Tweet

      And on his blog:

      The background is straightforward. Intel platforms allow the storage to be configured in two different ways - "standard" (normal AHCI on SATA systems, normal NVMe on NVMe systems) or "RAID". "RAID" mode is typically just changing the PCI IDs so that the normal drivers won't bind, ensuring that drivers that support the software RAID mode are used. Intel have not submitted any patches to Linux to support the "RAID" mode.
      In this specific case, Lenovo's firmware defaults to "RAID" mode and doesn't allow you to change that. Since Linux has no support for the hardware when configured this way, you can't install Linux (distribution installers will boot, but won't find any storage device to install the OS to).
      ...
      The real problem here is that Intel do very little to ensure that free operating systems work well on their consumer hardware - we still have no information from Intel on how to configure systems to ensure good power management, we have no support for storage devices in "RAID" mode and we have no indication that this is going to get better in future. If Intel had provided that support, this issue would never have occurred. Rather than be angry at Lenovo, let's put pressure on Intel to provide support for their hardware.

    • RE: Krebbs hit by 665Gbps DDOS

      There are some indications that this attack was launched with the help of a botnet that has enslaved a large number of hacked so-called “Internet of Things,” (IoT) devices — routers, IP cameras and digital video recorders (DVRs) that are exposed to the Internet and protected with weak or hard-coded passwords.

      The future is shit.

    • Krebbs hit by 665Gbps DDOS

      The attack began around 8 p.m. ET on Sept. 20, and initial reports put it at approximately 665 Gigabits of traffic per second. Additional analysis on the attack traffic suggests the assault was closer to 620 Gbps in size, but in any case this is many orders of magnitude more traffic than is typically needed to knock most sites offline.

      Martin McKeay, Akamai’s senior security advocate, said the largest attack the company had seen previously clocked in earlier this year at 336 Gbps. But he said there was a major difference between last night’s DDoS and the previous record holder: The 336 Gpbs attack is thought to have been generated by a botnet of compromised systems using well-known techniques allowing them to “amplify” a relatively small attack into a much larger one.

      In contrast, the huge assault this week on my site appears to have been launched almost exclusively by a very large botnet of hacked devices.

      Thats one big botnet if they're really not using reflection attacks.

      We don't really get Moonshines over here, so lesson learned. I guess it might be similar with poitíns but I don't really go for those.

      Production server of what, and what kind of whiskey?

      Applying Windows Updates to our HR's hosted documentation archiving system, and Jameson Irish unless the local is carrying the local distillary again.
