I clustered four Framework Mainboards to test LLMs

Framework casually mentioned they were testing a mini-rack AI cluster in their Framework Desktop presentation back in March. Imagine my surprise when Nirav Patel, Framework's founder and CEO, was at Open Sauce a couple weeks ago, and wanted to talk! He said they had seen my Project Mini Rack posts earlier this year and thought it was the perfect application to try out their new AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395-powered Mainboard, as it's mini ITX dimensions fit inside a 10" rack. Framework sent over four

Microsoft 365 apps to soon block file access via FPRPC by default

Show HN: BinaryRPC – Lightweight WebSocket-based RPC framework in modern C++

BinaryRPC 🧭 Motivation While working at my company, I had previously developed a WebSocket server prototype in Java. However, over time, we started to experience performance issues. This led me to turn to C++, a language that offers more speed and low-level system control. Through my research, I discovered that uWebSockets was one of the best options in terms of performance, so I began developing with this library. However, since uWebSockets is a very "core" library, I had to handle many deta

Infinite Mac OS X

tl;dr: Infinite Mac can now run early Mac OS X, with 10.1 and 10.3 being the best supported versions. It’s not particularly snappy, but as someone who lived through that period, I can tell you that it wasn’t much better on real hardware. Infinite HD has also been rebuilt to have some notable indie software from that era. Porting PearPC I’ve been tracking DingusPPC progress since my initial port and making the occasional contribution myself, with the hope of using it to run Mac OS X in Infinite

Microsoft 365 to block file access via legacy auth protocols by default

Microsoft has announced that it will start updating security defaults for all Microsoft 365 tenants in July to block access to SharePoint, OneDrive, and Office files via legacy authentication protocols. These changes will also address application access permissions that can expose organizations to unnecessary security risks. The rollout is set to begin in mid-July 2025, with an estimated completion date by August 2025. Microsoft will enable them by default for all Microsoft 365 tenants, across
