Extreme Covid measures in #Canada... as Loony as ever.
Comment from a poster - more confirmation that I need to just stay put for now - crazy!

'Wow …travelled back into Canada last Sunday by air and was RANDOMLY selected to perform a covid test on top of being flagged for secondary screening on departure as well as return ..WTF. Makes me wonder if they have a big database of everyone that donated to the freedom convoy 🤔 They said I had 24 hours to to test . Got the call today that I had to do it or could face up to 75,000 dollars in #fines …what a #crazy #world we live in !!!'

2018-04: RISC-V CPUs not affected by spectre & meltdown

“No announced RISC-V silicon is susceptible, and the popular open-source RISC-V Rocket processor is unaffected as it does not perform memory accesses speculatively.” (2018-01-05 src)

“If you’re selling an IoT sensor for 1 USD, how can you suddenly triple your costs by integrating secure technology, either forcing your market to bear the weight (if it will), or forcing your own company to vastly decrease its profit margins. None of this is sustainable in an ecosystem where the average ARM Cortex-M0+ costs under 0.60 USD per unit at volume with no trusted element.

My solution? RISC-V. With custom, open source, RISC-V processing technology, we can build secure processors with trust elements at a fraction of the cost of ARM processors. Integrating the RISC-V architecture into Lab Mouse, we can then offer a secure platform that is finally cost-effective.

So, in 2016, I researched the RISC-V architecture and joined the RISC-V consortium. I currently sit on the Debug, Security, and general ISA groups and hope to soon get back to participating more heavily. In 2017 at Hack in the Box Amsterdam, I demonstrated security flaws in the RISC-V processor architecture that are now resolved, proving that I put in the effort to research the architecture to ensure it is resilient enough for use in the Lab Mouse solution.” (src)

RISC-V hardware

would definitely recommend to support this project.: if one has little money:

https://www.crowdsupply.com/sifive/hifive1-rev-b ($60)

with massive amounts of money… https://www.crowdsupply.com/sifive/hifive-unleashed ($1000)

+ https://www.crowdsupply.com/microsemi/hifive-unleashed-expansion-board ($2000)

full blown RISC-V PC:

one can even build one’s own risc-v pc: (one can only hope that mass production will bring prices down)

https://vimeo.com/315869857

https://vimeo.com/215542017

https://abopen.com/news/building-a-risc-v-pc/

is still pretty expensive

microsemi offers a sata adapter for $2000

… but with $2000 also PRETTY EXPENSIVE.

A quotation by Carroll, Lewis

“But I don’t want to go among mad people,” Alice remarked.

​”Oh, you can’t help that,” said the Cat: “we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad.”

​”How do you know I’m mad?” said Alice.

​”You must be,” said the Cat, “or you wouldn’t have come here.”

Lewis Carroll (1832-1898) English writer and mathematician [pseud. of Rev. Charles Lutwidge Dodgson]

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, ch. 6 “Pig and Pepper” (1865)

#Linux bans #University of #Minnesota for committing malicious #code

source: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/linux-bans-university-of-minnesota-for-committing-malicious-code/

The move comes after a group of UMN researchers were caught submitting a series of malicious code commits, or #patches that deliberately introduced #security vulnerabilities in the official Linux #codebase, as a part of their #research activities.

These days I often have the feeling that everyone is going #crazy and has reached the end of their intellectual capacity. :(

Linux bans University of Minnesota for committing malicious code

Linux kernel project maintainers have imposed a ban on the University of Minnesota (UMN) from contributing to the open-source Linux project after a group of UMN researchers were caught submitting a series of malicious code commits, or patches that...
