@alina:catgirl.cloudalina arielle amelie🏳️‍⚧️🐾it does sound fun to poke at and reverse engineer tho15:27:19
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)what about reverse engineering that15:27:26
@k900:0upti.meK900 No one 15:27:27

@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)we had this discussion about FPGAs like, a few days ago with K90015:29:01
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)idk15:29:03
@k900:0upti.meK900There's official Qualcomm docs for most of it15:29:06

@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)like15:29:28
@k900:0upti.meK900I assume you mean toolchain, that would be yosys15:29:28
@k900:0upti.meK900There is no "firmware" really15:29:33
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)FPGAs we talked about15:29:34
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)yeah15:29:38

@k900:0upti.meK900(at least unless you're dealing with the FPGA-on-a-computer kind of SoCs that Xilinx makes and I don't think anyone else does)15:30:18
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her) but yeah, Xilinix and Yosys seem interesting 15:30:51
@alina:catgirl.cloudalina arielle amelie🏳️‍⚧️🐾but their toolchain is entirely proprietary15:32:16
@diogocastro:matrix.orgDiogo joined the room.15:32:20
