# Marker284/yandex-station-extended > An open wiki on hacking Yandex smart speakers: gaining root, SSH, installing custom software, USB peripherals, and teardowns of hardware and firmware per model. - Magnitude: 4.9 out of 10 — Early signal - Stars: 151 total · +29 stars measured 2026-10-26, 10:00–11:33 UTC, ≈ 59 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Hardware, IoT & robotics · Language: Shell · Created: 2026-10-23 · Last push: 2026-10-26 - GitHub: https://github.com/Marker284/yandex-station-extended · Homepage: http://hackalice.me/ · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/Marker284/yandex-station-extended ## Useful for - Gain root on a Yandex Station using the guide for your model - Set up SSH and disable firmware auto-updates - Install third-party packages via yse or YAM ## Why it’s here - Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-26 (UTC), 10:00–11:33: 122 → 151 stars (+29). This is the change over that interval. - Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +59 stars, using observed gains and the previous day. - The repository is 3 days old and already has 151 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet. - Top new repositories this week: #139. - About 28 forks a day — people are taking the code. ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 33 - Issues and pull requests: 27 - Watchers: 1 - Average over the last week: 39 per day - Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks) - Stars in the last hour (measured): 26 ## Stars per day, last 4 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-10-23 … 2026-10-26: 1, 34, 61, 29 ## Spotted in now - Top new repositories this week: #139 ## More in this category 1. **Zagitta/gpu-unlock** — 9.8 · Breakout · Hardware, IoT & robotics · C · +1,671 stars measured 2026-10-26, 00:11–11:32 UTC, ≈ 3,511 by evening Linux kernel module that unlocks certain NVIDIA GA102/GA104 GPU features (e.g. RTX 3090) before the nvidia driver binds, using the CMP unlocker technique and UEFI timing.

Full card: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/notaroomba/keybytes.md --- Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score. Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
