X86 Considered Harmful. What does a chummer use. What do you think ?

https://www.raptorcs.com/content/TL2WK2/intro.html

*Supports up to 2TB total main system memory

*Two 4-core IBM POWER9 CPUs (recommended)

*8 hot-swap SAS/SATA drive bays (functionality requires SAS controller)

*Heavy-duty chassis with redundant 1400W power supplies

>Designed with a fully owner-controlled CPU domain, you can audit and modify any portion of the open source firmware on the Talos™ II mainboard, all the way down to the CPU microcode. This is an unprecedented level of access for any modern workstation- or enterprise-class machine

>An owner-controlled, CPU-based secure boot mode also is available at any time. When secure boot is properly configured, and if the mainboard is located in a physically secure environment (e.g., a datacenter or locked workstation case), you can be assured that only your pre-approved and pre-audited firmware, kernel, and user space components are executing on a Talos™ II system.

I am looking to build a non-botnet router soon. I am currently using a PfSense box running on an old Intel Xeon server that I am sure is vulnerable in some way or another. Is there any FOSS ARM box that either has multiple 1Gb/s interfaces, or supports 802.11Q for VLAN trunking? Also what OS is recommended for routing/firewalling? I don't really want to have to build IPTables and routing tables manually, the web interface of PfSense is very convenient.

The BPI-R1 or R2. I bought the R2 and i can't say i recomend it. They decided to ship before they figured out how to get all the hardware working. The offical image barely works and doesn't even support the onboard wifi. Now the best support comes from a small handul of install images created and maintained by some guy named greg on the bpi forums. If you're experinced in hacking around in linux and flying blind, it will work, but don't expect a smooth experince or even good network proformance without beating your head against a keyboard for several hours per-issue.

There's too much marketing inside just do not be stupid, use calculator.

$ 5,149.00 Talos ™ II Secure Workstation included only $ 2,499.00 Basic Talos ™ II Bundle (Single CPU) so cost of case and Power Supply cost $ 1,700 ($ 7,284.00 with optional component so component cost include cpu is $ 2135 real like $ 1000-1200 with resonable alternative $ 700-800 )

$ 2,999.00 Basic Talos ™ II Bundle (Dual CPU) so only motherboard expected cost - $ 2199 or $ 2249 real which included x2 cooler for $ 50

$ 2,499.00 - Basic Talos ™ II Bundle (Single CPU) so only motherboard expected cost - $ 2099 or $ 2124 real which included one cooler for $ 25

$ 2,499.00 Talos ™ II Mainboard (Board Only) So CPU with headsink cost nothing.

$ 1,099.99 - Talos ™ II Lite Mainboard (Board Only)

$ 375.00 - IBM POWER9 CPU (4-Core)

$ 110.00 - 3U HSF Assembly for POWER9 CPUs

Most cheap option Talos ™ II Lite Mainboard (Board Only) + IBM POWER9 CPU (4-Core) $ 1,099.99 + $ 375.00 = 1474.99 or even two for "objective" cluster with similar perfomance 1474.99 x2 = $ 2949.98

I bought a cubieboard (A20 SoC) for $100 and it does everything I need. I'll probably buy another one (to have a spare/backup), and maybe even an A64 SoC board eventually. But I want to stay away from ARM stuff that's not made with Cortex-A7 or A53 processor, since the other ones use the speculative behavior that results in Spectre type bugs.

It runs NetBSD nicely. I even got the SATA disk encrypted (I use 448-bit blowfish-cbc, works well). Well except the root partition, since CGD can't do that. But all my data and logs are encrypted (and the swap partition too), so that's good enough for my purposes.

The board has a *real* power jack that can accomodate the 3A of current necessary to power a hard disk. Quite a few of the ARM SBCs use a micro USB jack for power, but that has trouble supplying more than 2A, which may even lead to strange, erratic behavior even without HDD attached.

I haven't bought shit except a rpi3 but, Talos II at 5k is outside any budget for a desktop computer I will ever, I just don't need 36 logical cores right now as 水 as that is. I want FreeRISC, but obviously Power is an entirely different beast. Entry level is twice the price of shitty amiga system. The amiga is something like ~2010 grade non-intel hardware - which I am using now, at half the price.

In order of price its: arm/freerisc soc(~20-40 USD), Amiga (1.5-2 kUSD), Talos II (5k). The mid range consumer grade hardware 500 - 1000 USD is totally missing, because this isn't a normal consumer market - but CPU diversity would be nice.

The question is almost done to death by now, if you have to use x86 for some reason use AMD, if you don't want that use a decent ARM based setup like >>49812

A POWER or RISC-V based system would be king but one is very expensive to get and the other has pretty much nothing aside from some dev boards.

I see you are a man of culture. My main point was that the single CPU Talos Board is more cost effective than the x5000: $1.5k vs$1.9k so about the same price after adding other components to the Talos' price. Librebootable x86 boards ought to be in that list of hardware between RISC SBCs and the Amiga because they can more than keep up with the Amiga at a midrange budget.

4 gigs is easy to find in the Rockchip-based board. If you got the money, this might be a good one:

It's a SoM that mounts onto this board:

https://www.theobroma-systems.com/rk3399-q7/dev-kit-haikou

Anyway they're an austrian company, so it's bound to cost more than the chinese stuff. Prices aren't listed, so dunno. A cheaper option would be this:

https://www.pine64.org/?page_id=61454

OpenBSD seems to support both, at least for the basic devices (no idea if stuff like audio works though):

https://www.openbsd.org/arm64.html

And just forget entirely about 3D GPU support, unless you get one of the boards with reverse-engineered driver, like indicated on this page:

https://www.fsf.org/resources/hw/single-board-computers

Personally I have completely abandonned the idea of needing 3D GPU at all, ever. That means I also don't play modern games, or even fancy emulators like MAME that now require GPU to run well.

I'm not familiar with it, but sounds like it's an optional feature, and not something that's always on by default (like Intel ME). Sounds like it's up to the OS to make use of it, for virtualization, or maybe you could leverage it via a microkernel.

My reading of >>55075 is basically the same. Its a technology that allows the creation of two "worlds" that segment memory with an extra address bit to enforce separation between them. A special instruction SMC is called to switch context, and the "secure world" can act as a software library, or a whole another operating system. Unlike TPM, there is no secured flash memory, and other resources like disks are not multiplexed securely between worlds - so there is no key storage. It seems like an "orthogonal" system of privileges to "ring levels". I don't actually see what I would want this in my computer - why do I need two orthogonal systems of privileges - at the same time, as long as I have control of what runs in the "secure world", i don't actually care - it could be used to build someschway stuff perhaps.

Its definitely not Intel ME by itself.

Enough is enough, we enjoy art and a lot of fantasy themes and contents made by none other than ourselves but the truth is this entire grand scheme is smoking a giant turd and these art are just clay figures of that turd. Our lives are a lie and what's worse is by the time we reach genetic "realization" of truth will be the time they reap the entire planet off its inhabitants. Trust Q maybe, until they release the declass.

Architecturally, there are ONLY two worlds supported - a secure and non-secure world. If you have control of both - then you have control of the chip.

Although, how do you know the chip only supports two worlds ? ARM is nice enough to let you rich corporations across a diversity of nations inspect and modify the design of the chips - However, even if you were to see and validate the design, how can you tell what has actually been fabbed?

Not trusting your hardware vendor is a tricky road to go down. You can only really mitigate risk.

I think the chance the an ARM processor has a designed in backdoor is less than intel because more than just intel has seen and used the design - ARM is more open. However, there is no certainty. I don't think that arm processors without trustzone are less likely to contain a backdoor than arm processors with trustzone because, if your hardware vendor is going to maintain two designs, a secret internal backdoored, and a semi-public backdoor free design, they are going to do that trust zone or not.

It's still in "preorder", but there have been demos at conferences/events so it's not just vaporwave.

mainboard alone is $975,

an 8core+HSF+mainboard bundle is $1575

- µATX vs. EATX

- audio output (5x 3.5mm, 1x S/PDIF)

- HDMI vs. VGA

- single socket

- 2x RAM slots vs. 8x per-socket

- blob-free SATA controller vs. SAS controller w/ firmware blob (driver was still open source)

- PCIe 4 slots limited to one x16 and one x8, just like the Talos II Lite

The thing is it doesn't matter. If there is no proprietary firmware that just means they burned it into mask rom. Any bad stuff that could be done with proprietary firmware can be done just as easily with proprietary hardware. At least parts of the sifive hardware design are partly open source, maybe eventually it could be fully open. In any case complaining about proprietary firmware while suggesting an allwinner board is pretty rich.

If the hardware was "open source" you could make a free software replacement fot the firmware, but you can't.

Sifive chips are nonfree hardware running nonfree firmware.

With EOMA68-A20, you have fully free firmware. Just the core is proprietary.

Right, because it's not open source. The hope is that by supporting risc-v there could eventually be an entirely open source SoC. Meanwhile Allwinner is a regular GPL violator and dumps barely working code with the expectation that the open source community will fix it.

>Just the core is proprietary.

If by core you mean the entire SoC, which is basically the computer. The rest is just wiring, random peripherals and jelly bean parts.

At least it can be run only with free software, excluding Mali GPU driver, but in EOMA68-A20 it just isn't included at all. Reverse engineering efforts are for Mali are in progress - Lima, Panfrost, etc.

If it's trully open source then it includes tools and methods for reflashing the firmware. That way at least you don't have to throw away your hardware if it gets pwnd.

But I don't know any such HDD controllers, so if your shit gets pwnd (and by some miracle you actually become aware of it - not so easy with rootkits that dig in this deep), you can try to move the disk to another "identical" board from the same manufacturer (hard to tell what's identical since they may update/change the firmware and parts without notice as it's not considered "user serviceable"), or you can throw it out (this is the most likely case).

Just supporting Risc-V won't help, as using WWW which is a free standart too won't make all js scripts and all webpages free.

For non-highend stuff, RISC-V all the way, but I'd want something properly powerful for my workstation/desktop

My plan is to eventually migrate all my stuff:

x86 -> Power

ARM -> RiscV

Mobile-class processor is just the beginning, because it is easy and cheap to develop, the risk is lower and the demand is higher.

You could buy a few cards and connect them making a cluster though.

Not likely, you already got boards going for reasonable prices. Bunch of companies are getting into this because it means not paying a pound of flesh to softbank for every arm chip you make. This means tons of companies will be making these.

There already a company that, no joke, makes custom RISCV system-on-chip, you can drag and drop parts online, check
