Replacing a TCP socket with a UNIX socket doesn’t affect the amount of headers you have to parse.
I once met a person that never drank water, only soft drinks. It’s not the unhealthiness of this that disturbed me, but the fact they did it without the requisite paperwork.
Unlike those disorganised people I have a formal waiver. I primarily drink steam and crushed glaciers.

We rented our technology and could not read nor write.
Windows update fetches all sorts of things now. If the hardware advertises X device then Windows update will check if it has anything for it. Approved vendors can provide all sorts of guff. Historically that has included drivers that intentionally brick your devices. HP probably packaged up some software that updates the BIOS and got it into the Windows Update DBs.
This is something HP should have handled.
If a bad update is rolled out then it’s the responsibility of the software maker partner (HP) and the distributor (Microsoft), not just one or the other.
Those laptops are THEIR products, not Microsoft’s.
Both Microsoft and HP have branding on their laptops and a responsibility post-sale for the reliability of their systems. Hardware, firmware and OS responsibilities are all party to this chain of failure.

My family has a Chiq U58G7P. Warm boots take about 30 sec and cold boots a few minutes.
Don’t try and press any buttons on the remote during this time or for a minute or two afterwards. They might work, 15 seconds later, or they might get ignored. Sometimes your button press inputs get re-ordered too.
Factory resets do work, but then all it can do is broadcast TV. If you let it update and install streaming apps then you will be back to the same problems.
I suspect that it might be running out of RAM and thrashing some poor innocent MMC as swap, but I can’t find a USB ADB port to properly find out (maybe it has one internally?).
25/10 for 65AUD/m (43USD/m). Australia, NBN (monopoly across entire country, technically government owned but run like a private corp because of politics). It’s the lowest speed now available, but it’s already overpriced. $780/year is far more than all of my wifi capable equipment is worth together, including laptops.

Any other way to see this? Or is this show not freely available (ie you have to pay for it)?
Nice, ty. I’ve only revenged PC firmware, not embedded, so I wouldn’t think of several of those tools.
I know a model of HP inkjet from my childhood that had a service/factory mode where ink checks were disabled. After years of claiming that its carts were empty I was suddenly able to print perfect full-colour pages. RIP HP Photosmart 3110
Congrats :) The idea that a few software bits are between you and getting a pile of junk working is infuriating. Did you extract and modify an image from flash or find a way in live?
Ditto with my printer. Print over LAN: sure. Printer connect to internet: hell no, that’s the first-party version of printer malware.

Summary: two Silicon Power P34A80’s died within a few months of use, the second one was the warranty replacement of the first. In both cases sectors suddenly became permanently unreadable.
Smart locks are worse. They have all the insecurity of a regular lock, plus more methods of insecurity, plus more failure modes that will shut you out of your house.
In Kerbal Space Program your ships sometimes catch the NaN virus. If one fuel tank level is reading NaN then whatever you do DON’T try and fill it from another (full) tank. I’m not sure if it can spread to physics (thrust, mass, etc) EDIT: Yes it can happen to physics, oh dear.
I wonder what would happen if you landed a NaN-infected spaceship on a planet.

Transactions per second. Bitcoin is slow and expensive to get your transaction “approved”.
We already have memory wafers glued to our CPU wafers in the form of L3 cache. It’s lower latency, higher throughput, up to a few hundred MiB in bigger models and can potentially be used without external RAM sticks (but I’ve not heard of using that feature outside of BIOS firmware early boot – that’s probably the only change we’ll see). Sometimes it’s DRAM, sometimes it’s SRAM, its size varies quite a bit.
