 hexa | * https://stevetech.me/posts/qnap-switch-serial-console implies they are running something based on openwrt | 01:06:20 |
| hexa | different switch though | 01:06:27 |
 raitobezarius | doubtful it's not running openwrt | 01:07:11 |
| raitobezarius | it has management and shows HTTP server | 01:07:20 |
| hexa | generally vendors might just base their sdk on openwrt | 01:08:20 |

| hexa | I know qualcomm does this often | 01:08:29 |
 emily | I thought most managed switches were not OpenWrt | 01:08:31 |
| emily | or at least not anything remotely close to normal OpenWrt | 01:08:41 |
| raitobezarius | QNAP is not serious managed switch | 01:08:50 |
| raitobezarius | non serious managed switch is OpenWRT | 01:08:58 |
| hexa | serious managed switches cut down the resources much further 😄 | 01:09:11 |
| hexa | and you get a stupid mips core | 01:09:19 |
| hexa | * and you get a stupid mips core instead | 01:09:37 |
| emily | grr, since when does amazon.com redirect to the local site | 01:09:53 |
| emily | what's the price of this thing? | 01:09:55 |
| raitobezarius | 600+ bucks | 01:09:59 |
| hexa | 700 EURish | 01:10:00 |
| raitobezarius | stupidly expensive and useless | 01:10:03 |
| emily | rip | 01:10:08 |
| raitobezarius | i considered buying it | 01:10:10 |
| emily | if I was spending that much I could probably get something a lot beefier second-hand | 01:10:20 |
| hexa | but also likely more power hungry | 01:10:34 |
| raitobezarius | probably not as a silent | 01:10:35 |
| raitobezarius | * probably not as silent | 01:10:42 |
| raitobezarius | neither switchdev support | 01:10:49 |
| hexa | yeah, prestera is an interesting platform | 01:11:13 |
| raitobezarius | i think if they did a half version of that switch and sold it for 250-300 bucks | 01:14:20 |
| raitobezarius | i'd buy it and port liminix to it | 01:14:23 |
| emily | are the ARM cores 64 bit | 01:17:55 |
