>Is a DDR trainer really that hard to write?

Since this is an unencrypted binary, I'm sure it won't be difficult to reverse engineer. And it will definitely be open source sooner or later. But first, we'll try to convince Rockchip to open source it. Especially since the RK3576 has other proprietary parts, such as OP-TEE and some registers. Also it has a Cortex M0 core, which is also not documented.

Our wifi chipset MT7921AUN has an open driver in the mainline. Of course wifi firmware is binary. But you can use the whole system without a wifi. Main idea is to make the platform open, so you don't need blobs to boot and use the system.

We're currently negotiating with Rockchip and will first try to convince them to open source. This particular binary isn't a problem right now. I'm sure it will be open source sooner or later. All efforts are currently focused on hardware validation, and software is being developed only in areas where hardware verification is required.

For those who work from home, we have made it possible to hang the device on the door so that no one knocks on your door when you are on call. Also, by integration with the BUSY App it can automatically block notifications on phone and desktop when you are in focus mode.

CO2 sensor is too expensive. No one will buy this device for $500

Hi, Pavel Zhovner here, Flipper Devices CEO. Yes it's our product, but it's not ready for announcement yet, so we keep it secret.

Right now, we are working on implementing Matter smart home protocol and will slightly change the product concept.

>The attacker managed to issue multiple SSL/TLS certificates via Let’s Encrypt for jabber.ru and xmpp.ru domains since 18 Apr 2023

Why is it even possible to issue more than 1 certificate on the same domain via Let’s Encrypt? Shouldn't the previous certificate be revoked when a new one is issued?

No, it's just optional feature to play with, not implemented yet. And you will need to manually activate it like a Bluetooth discovery.
