There was a brief fascination with gmail-as-a-drive when it came out and offered people 1GB of storage. I remember someone wrote a driver that cut your data up and stored it as email attachments.
Back when I was on reddit, I remember finding some obscure subreddits that only had one approved poster and every post was filled to the brim with nothing but hexadecimal.
In theory, any website that allows you to post things could be used as a storage drive...
Maybe reddit's formatting could interfere with using full unicode. Some of it could get interpreted as formatting marks, which could introduce bugs when trying to read it back.
Like, if your binary file translated into unicode happened to have {1*xF9*u in it, it would then read as {1xF9u when you go to read it back, and now you're missing two bytes from your binary file. But since none of the hexadecimal symbols are used as formatting marks, you're safe when using hex.
You just gotta love the "do not hallucinate" part of that prompt, which is like taking a person tripping balls on LSD, and telling them "now hear this, I want you to only tell me facts, and I do not want you to hallucinate!"
I've got the same setup but I found the issue wasn't the hardware but a driver conflict with my Nintendo Gameboy Printer. I was able to rollback and get it working fine.
The solution was magnetic serial ports, birds have innate desire to charge up on power cables anyway so not much training was needed, it also minimised the exposed network attack area, ... but doesn't do much against aDDoS attacks (a single mf with a handful of seeds will fuck up my coop-rig for hours).
yes, the problem is you did not sacrifice a live goat while mercury is in retrograde and github is down, as is custom for digital magic and necromancy.
Maybe they run like a custom software SLI (the 3dfx SLI literally split the screens into halves & each card rendered it's thing independently, iirc - could be done 4 ways, like merging 4 screens into one). And it's from a project last updated 25 years ago.
The Riva line were absolute bangers tbh. Mad props to the driver developers who were always playing catch-up on the hardware (mad props to the hardware designers implied) but always delivered the goods. I honestly hope they're rich AF.
I think Debian needs at least 64 megabytes of memory to boot? Or at least Debian-Installer needs that for its ramdisk? (I remember doing some convoluted jank to get Debian crammed on a machine with 32 megs of memory once.)
Dunno how factual this is, I haven't checked in a while
a trixie netinst iso says it needs 320mb to run the installer and that's in lowmem mode where you have to pick and choose every installer component you want to load. and then it'll still look like this:

Hex is somewhat curiously an extremely poor encoding when you have access to unicode

Idk, I just tried it on a similar set up (I don't have networking per se, just two pigeons with flash drives).
Works perfectly.

Must be a bug on Debian side. That's all common hardware, so you can just rely on someone else to report it and you'll be back up in a day or 2.

Debian is the universal operating system, and I'm sure OP's computer exists in some universe. File a bug.
bizarroland@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 74d
I doubt it's a bug. It's probably a kernel issue, so try rebuilding the kernel on the hardware.

they obviously didn't RTFM, specifically section 6.4. Loading Missing Firmware
but actually I'm not sure where to find the TNT drivers for Linux anymore... https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/riva-drivers/ has them for OS/2 and BeOS but no Linux 🤔
edit: ok so https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/21931/ has it for i386 Linux, OP can probably just ask their ethernet LLM to port it to rv128
