Don't use scripts unless you know how it works otherwise you will have trouble troubleshooting when something doesn't work. But by the time you read and understand how the script works, you already learn how to deploy it manually.

umami_wasbi , 22 days ago to Technology in iFixit hails replaceable LPCAMM2 laptop memory as a 'big deal'

If you're a manufacture, what incentives LPCAMM2 gives you over soldering the RAM? With soldering, you can upsell the upgrades and force ppl to replace the whole machine every 1-2 years. How does LPCAMM2 benefits the company? I'm talking in general, not some niche manufacturers like Framework.

TBH, I don't think many will adopt this. Maybe it will show up in some expensive laptops like high end gaming and workstation, but majority of them wouldn't.

Got it. I can see where the problem is niw and how can the hardware is limiting. Thanks for the great article.

umami_wasbi , 27 days ago to Privacy in HDMI stream live processing?

Well, I'm simply reciting what is described on the page based on my understanding. From the diagram, it does not do raw frame processing from the source (assuming HDMI w/ HDCP) as the stream remains encrypted. By the look of it, it is copy or passthrough to the muxer (as it labeled). With some magic, it muxes two encrypted streams into one and output to the video sink. How is that done I have no idea.

umami_wasbi , 27 days ago to Privacy in HDMI stream live processing?

It doesn't and I didn't ever mentioned HDMI in my reply. Just doubt if overlaying another encrypted stream with a muxer ever need that much processing power to the point of "prohibitively expensive".
