Is it possible that calling invalid memory triggers an error flag, and it's checking to ensure the error flag is there and clear it?

Ive tried giving it that to.


My theory is that its testing the RAM as well. Since that address would land up in RAM. And because its meant for ONE piece of hardware and does not support virtual memory this early every bootup would result in the same spots being in the same places in RAM. So it has a stored checksum that its using to compare against a real one to see if it matches what normally would be there to check if the RAM is bad, But with differences in QEMU, and the fact that well ive tried giving it nothing and it still does the same thing. Im going to have to spend more time researching before I can reach that conclusion

I didn't start reading these when you first started posting them. And I think i would need to go all the way back to understand what the project is.

Anyway you can give a short summary of what this project is, or the goal?

Trying to run TV firmware in a VM. Is linux under the hood. Goal is to mod it and have the custom mod run on the actual TV.

I feel like once im done im going to get a BUNCH of older TVS running in QEMU and im going to test what happens when the date goes to 2038(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem) and then make a website for consumers and people on what will survive and what will not. After that I might do more stuff like Phones and tablets and then update the site for that.

You have to make it connected only to your KF identity, force people and news coverage to become aware of ProudSkibidiToiletAryan.

Basically the register T1 is NON cleared for some reason. I have to figure out WHY now. Im assuming its because my implementation is to perfect and there is something that is acutally SUPPOSE to fail normally.. But that is just guesswork, and you can make a MILLION valid reasons and theorys for why something does not work in this stage.

Im taking a short break from this(3 days). Im learning 3d modelling for three days. Thought id be fun

bro. is there an eclipse happening, and you're using the monitor to look at it's reflection?

No I got it from wikipedia. But yeah im wondering WHAT that is there when the guy took the photo. But also I kind of like it because most pictures taken have imperfections like that in it.

I dont know why but I have a feeling its from MACOS or a mac based computer running Linux, they just have that look.

NO WAIT ITS APPARENTLY THE PHONES flashlight, here is another picture of it. Most likely the flash happened so fast that once reflected on the monitor that the phones camera only caught some of it much like how Old phones fuck up recording plane wings.

Phones (in particular iPhones) (used to?) have a feature where the camera takes a series of photos in a short burst and then the phone smushes them together into a single image. I once saw a photo taken at a concert using this feature where one of the stage lights passed over the phone as it was being taken, creating this really cool ghosting effect.
 
Using linux OSes makes me wanna fucking rage bro. Just dropped Fedora for Ubuntu and because I have HDMI->displayport cable adapters only one of my monitors can go to 100hz, others are at 60hz. Fuck my nigger chud life.

blame gay hdmi for that

tbf besides gayming Linux is pretty good. If linux OS' had a big enough marketshare to be catered to it'd probably be just as good as windows with all of the little tricks they do to work past these things
