I didn't in-depth read the main article here. But skimmed most of it.

Not sure any of it is going to brick hardware, but I haven't played with setting flags with ethtool. I've messed with Wake-on-Lan stuff in the past, as well as "prevent device from randomly waking from sleep" issues, too (on Windows, though).

I do have the advantage of a lot of past experience with Atmegas then RPis, so know a lot of the common sense hardware considerations... and a lot of troubleshooting. For me getting 90% correct with ChatGPT, and building up incrementally, has been an improvement on doing it all myself with google.

I might take an attempt at asking chatGPT how to do what the author did. Could be informative, even if just introspective realizations like, "oh, this is a question I asked in a good way due to my existing knowledge."
