Sony Bravia HTTP API

The sony bravia has a HTTP API interacted with using a Pre-Shared key. There's a more complex auth flow but I've not described it here.

There wasn't any documentation, so I've written some. If you're a TV integrator don't read this, you'll laugh. I'm probably just getting confused by UPnP.

Disclaimer: I've only tested this on my TV, which is a KDL-50W829B. Your TV might not have all of the services; see Available services section for how to discover what your TV supports.

How to passthrough SATA drives directly on VMWare EXSI 6.5 as RDMs

There aren't many tutorials about this, the only tutorials I've found were about passing through entire PCIe cards to VMs, or refered to old ESXI versions (below 6.5) that used a more comprehensive desktop client instead of the web app. In v6.5, the web app was introduced and the desktop client was deprecated. You used to be able to setup RDMs in the desktop client, but with the introduction of the web console, this is no longer the case. This tutorial shows you how to pass SATA HDDs to the virtual machine on VMWare ESXI 6.5. This tutorial is partially based on VMWare's own KB and the now deprecated Forza IT blog post.
