And another open FPGA debug IP joins my rapidly growing suite.
These are all portable systemverilog and will run on anything, but the immediate motivation is making up for Efinix's rather lackluster debug tools.
The general concept is basically "CoreSight / ADIv5 for FPGAs". You have a generic transport (so far only UART is implemented) that provides read/write access to an internal APB bus with debug IPs hanging off it.
The debug bridge points to a ROM table …

I have a SUN SunFIRE v880, but no login to the RSC card and no OS to boot from.
But I am thinking if I can create somekind of LiveCD with Tribblix and run rscadm from that one? Is that possible with Tribblix?

I initially bought the thermal camera to identify insulation issues during winter, now I'm hunting for heat bridges and appliances that produce too much warmth.
Fridge heats up the whole wall, AC sucks in air through the extractor hood exhaust, the dishwasher distributes heat evenly and the surround receiver is 40°C hot while in standby.

The house I live in is old and moisture has been a constant problem in the basement. At the same time, a dehumidifier has been too expensive to run all the time. I finally have the setup I was hoping for: My raspberry pi gets the electricity prices for the day, and if the price is below a certain point, the dehumidifier turns on thanks to a Shelly S plug controlled by the pi. If it isn’t too moist, the dehumidifier stops by itself. Once the price increases too much, the Shelly-plug is turned…

Just doubled performance of the ngscopeclient CDR PLL on some workloads by fixing a bug causing it to run twice.
The PLL starts out with a small output buffer (since it doesn't know how much it's oversampling the input) then if it needs to generate more clock edges than the buffer can hold will expand the buffer and re-run. The size of the previous output is saved so next time it can make a better estimate of how much to allocate.
This adaptive sizing step is supposed to …

So far, the president’s plot to subvert the integrity of the midterm elections looks like this:
Issue a rule requiring states to give lists of mail-in voters to the Postal Service if their citizens hope to receive mail-in ballots.
Knowing that this is a blatantly unconstitutional seizure of the states’ prerogative to run their own elections,
count on a federal court to block the rule.
Then challenge the injunction, arguing

Donald Trump has other plans.

Trump will headline two nights of a GOP political convention in Dallas.
