Hello World

[alastairhm]

Hello,

I was an Acorn Electron, then BBC B, then Archimedes A3000 uses first time around.

Recently started trying to relearn 6502 for fun and an escape from my day job as a cloud engineer.

Already found some useful information here to help me.

Al.

Hi Al,

welcome to this great Forum...


Greetings from my little Dutch Atomic Attic, Wim...

Welcome, Al.

Cloud engineer? Love the job title - sounds a bit Slartibartfast to me.

Welcome!

I heartily recommend the whole "picking up 6502 as an escape from the day job" thing! There are so many resources out there to answer any questions you might have. I can't imagine what it must have been like to develop complicated/difficult techniques 'back in the day' with no internet and fewer reference materials.

Welcome.
I learn't my 6502 from the Advanced User Guide and trial and error, lost of error!

Yes I remember the same until I had a college course using it, last year they taught 6502 as it was old even by then.

Now it seems a lot simpler than my day job of AWS, Python and such....

Code: Select all

import socket
from OpenSSL import SSL
import certifi

hostname = 'www.google.com'
port = 443


context = SSL.Context(method=SSL.TLSv1_METHOD)
context.load_verify_locations(cafile=certifi.where())

conn = SSL.Connection(context, socket=socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM))
conn.settimeout(5)
conn.connect((hostname, port))
conn.setblocking(1)
conn.do_handshake()
conn.set_tlsext_host_name(hostname.encode())
for (idx, cert) in enumerate(conn.get_peer_cert_chain()):
    print(f'{idx} subject: {cert.get_subject()}')
    print(f'  issuer: {cert.get_issuer()})')
    print(f'  fingerprint: {cert.digest("sha1")}')

conn.close()

So, we meet again. Welcome!
