dulapbot: Logged on 2026-04-19 07:37:48 crtdaydreams: The fritzed board in question - https://frame.work/au/en/products/deep-computing-risc-v-mainboard
crtdaydreams: The demand was identified and they've been snuffled up by folks charging a hefty markup, I don't see why he who hold the money printer wouldn't wave around a fat wad to recirculate fritzed versions. - The people who are looking for them are most likely to be of interest to various 3 letter organisations.
crtdaydreams: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-10-25#1061851 >> was looking at a chicom riscv mainboard compatible with the framework laptops as I currently don't own any hardware that's not in essence, [fritzed](http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log-search?q=fritz&chan=asciilifeform)

asciilifeform: mats: recall previous leaks. lulzily errytime 'broken fritz boobytrap' is spun as 'vulnerability' (somehow the presence of the fritz ~aint~ a vuln. ('or are you a terrorist!'))
dulapbot: gregory5 last seen here on 2022-01-21 23:08:40: asciilifeform: to my understanding, motherboard-vendors such as Asus are given power/permission to circumvent Fritz, is that right?

billymg: asciilifeform: that's a fair point, if people start replacing the ecu they'll start fritzing all the individual parts
asciilifeform: verisimilitude: 'used' crapple market afaik long-dead, what with the epoxied pnojes with individually fritzchipped parts (i.e. can't interchange), the lappies with soldered-in ssds, etc
dulapbot: Logged on 2022-03-07 14:12:27 billymg: i like the concept though, the idea of defritzing the enemy's wares. i imagine it'd make them upset too "hey! that wasn't included in the purchase price!"
billymg: also, as more people start to realize this is a problem, the used / non-fritzed market will eventually dry up. only option will be to buy new and replace the chip

bonechewer: It's an OpenPOWER clone on a 180nm process, so not going to revolutionise the world of computing, but still it would be nice for there to exist another Fritz-free CPU
dulapbot: (trilema) 2016-10-04 asciilifeform: 'AMD’s PSP is based around a single 32-bit ARM Cortex-A5, with its own isolated ROM and SRAM but has access to system memory and resources. It contains logic to deal with the x86 POST process but also features a cryptographic co-processor.' << they stuffed, finally, their 'fritz chip', into the g-series.
dulapbot: (trilema) 2017-05-02 asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: incidentally: i fully expect the ~next~ generation of intel fritz to use nic-independent trigger (e.g., magic string in memory)
dulapbot: (trilema) 2017-08-30 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-30#1706252 << if you're actually convinced that 1) the published method fully and permanently disables the thing 2) it was the one and only fritzchip core in intelturd --- i got bridge to sellya.

asciilifeform: it dun 100% keep up with the Gb/s pipe, which is annoying, but i like that it is fanless and unfritzed fwiw
dulapbot: Logged on 2020-12-21 19:54:39 asciilifeform: will prolly try the infamous kdpe-d16 next. this an' the other one, were the last 2 opteron+ecc mobos before the great fritzchipping.
asciilifeform: punkman: i've not tried 'epic', they were the 1st amd w/ builtin fritz

atuttle: woah, the fritz chip is BGA? I thought it was QFN. are you serious?
atuttle: asciilifeform, by the way, if you never got around to making the fritzchip-replacement PCB I might try it. I have a pair of gru-bobs and a scarlet which are fritzed, unlike my kevin. But if you already designed one and are willing to share it there is no sense duplicating the effort.
atuttle: asciilifeform, did you ever get around to making that defritzing module? you know, the one that goes in place of the cr50. if not, it looks pretty easy; most of the pins can just be passed straight through. at most, maybe a CPLD to generate the 3v3 enable and the keyboard strobe
asciilifeform: punkman: lol, fritzchip coin? (afaik not the 1st such, even)
asciilifeform: punkman: lol, new fritz chip? there's over9000 of these already
magnus: I would do -anything- to avoid that but... it may come down to that eventually... as all useable hardware will be fritz'd in one way or another...

asciilifeform: it's a fritz.

snsabot: Logged on 2020-07-30 00:35:57 asciilifeform: Apocalyptic: how the hell is this a vuln ? 'secure boot' is elementary fritzchip (i.e. 'secure against owner')

asciilifeform: shinohai: ah, then the usual fritz chip idiocy
asciilifeform: i don't need a box w/ masterkeyed fritzchip for anything.
asciilifeform: see microshit's 'palladium', the orig. fritz chip plan from '90s.
fromloper1121: Stanislav, instead of trying to sell those few SmartProbes for 1 BTC, you could fund the reverse engineering and production of compatible clones for a fraction of 1 BTC and make this device much more accessible to the hardware tinkerers like you, fighters with a FritzChip industry. Since a Sage company is dead, no one can sue you for a copyright
asciilifeform: unrelatedly: folx interested in smmism (smm was how boobytraps were often implemented prior to proper fritzchip) will find that it is detailed in amd opteron datashit; and that you can singlestep smm handler w/ 'sage' probe on irons where there is connector for same.
dllud: Yup, you will be in for a sad ride in the next few years. The laptops that may come out without Fritz chips will be those kinds of community projects with bulky shitty chassis.
