    Backdoor in Allwinner CPU kernel

    When talking about Information Security, your supposed attacker is usually working at ISP or government level (or anything similar). If you can defend against this one, you can defend against any weaker attacker. But if you really want to go full paranoia, you can configure sshd to function as a...

    Backdoor in Allwinner CPU kernel

    I'm not sure that this method would have any security advantages. An attacker would see that you just sent your magic key and then recognize the typical ssh fingerprint.

    Preorders Have Started. (Previously named starts in two hours)

    The Honest Trailers for 300 started with "a film based on a graphic novel based on an older film based on ancient Greek propaganda based on a true story".

    Dual SoCs?

    As far as my knowledge concerning this goes, designing a GPU isn't hard. However, designing a powerful, efficient and OpenGL-compliant GPU is another story.

    You can edit any Wikipedia article without an account just by clicking the edit button. The only "problem" would be that your edit will be flagged as "maybe a bot did this, somebody should check this".

    Uses for the Cortex-M4 cores on the OMAP5?

    Might I suggest a 4gb ram Pyra version be standard?

    Well, if I remeber correctly, the components themselves would cost 70€~80€ (30€ SoC + 20€ RAM + 20€ Storage), so depending on how big the time investment would be, it could be feasible.

    Finalizing everything!

    Tor uses very short lived certificates. To be precise, the certificates themselves are valid for a couple of years (to appear to be standard SSL certificates), but Tor nodes discard them after a very short period of time.

    Thoughts about an DBP Manager

    Debian packages should work in general and it shouldn't be a problem to have an automated process which rebuilds the DBP package each time the repo is updated.
