Slashdot Mirror
The NetBSD Toaster
kv9 writes "Finally after many, many yeas of running on everything-but-your-toaster NetBSD is there too. Technologic Systems has made a toaster that is controlled by NetBSD and powered by one of their ARM boards, the TS-7200. Everything is controlled through sysctl, there are LEDs that show you what is going on, the toaster can play MP3s while it fries the bread and even has Apache/PHP installed. More information in the press release [pdf warning] and on this running NetBSD on the TS-7200 page."
Nobody cares that a few years ago Slashdot decided to start listing user ID numbers right up on top, like a weenie BBS full of 15 year olds back in the day where 'rankings' determined your standing.
I think there's probably a hell of a lot that you don't know. Just as with the rest of us.
I'd be embarassed to admit that I'm such a suckup to the Slashdot Cult that I haven't quit in disgust and thrown away a whole handful of accounts. Almost all of which had high positive karma before I changed the email address to a nonentity, changed the password, and kissed Slashdot goodbye for a few months.
Do you know anything about NetBSD or have you just been reading trolls about NetBSD since way back in the 'Mae Ling Mak, Naked and Petrified' days when the Kreskin link still worked in the "BSD is Dead" crapfloods?
Don't be a dink with an attitude.
