Use a Raspberry Pi To Catch Hackers with OpenCanary
The best part about the setup is the notification system. You can program OpenCanary to send you email alerts the moment it detects potential threats. You can use this information to determine what IP address was used and where the potential breach took place.

Pilo: Raspberry Pi-Powered Lights-Out Remote Server Management for $60 or less
But USB isn’t the only way to send keypresses to a computer - almost a decade before the USB standard was a twinkle in Compaq’s eye, IBM was using the PS/2 standard (not to be confused with the PS2) to connect mice and keyboards to PCs. It’s still not feasible to use the Pi to bit-bang the PS/2 protocol, but we can use an Arduino as a daughterboard, and the ps2dev library can handle the nitty-gritty of the serial protocol for PS/2.
So that’s what I did. The Arduino Nano pictured on the left is plugged directly into the PS/2 combo port on the back of the motherboard (ignore the unused 5V wire, red). Originally, I planned on cutting the end off of a PS/2 cable and making it all nice, but the Goodwill near me didn’t have any PS/2 junk and it turns out that breadboard wires just fit oh-so-snugly into the DIN holes. So this is how it’s gonna be.

Samsung, Red Hat to Work on Linux Drivers for Future Tech
The metaverse is expected to uproot system design as we know it, and Samsung is one of many hardware vendors re-imagining data center infrastructure in preparation for a parallel 3D world.
Samsung is working on new memory technologies that provide faster bandwidth inside hardware for data to travel between CPUs, storage and other computing resources. The company also announced it was partnering with Red Hat to ensure these technologies have Linux compatibility.
