    Free Lossless Image Format (FLIF)

    Yes in general before even considering some open-source software for use in something I work on, the first thing I do is look at the license.  If it's not some form of Apache, Eclipse, or BSD license (i.e,. the 'copy-center' licenses), then I'm most likely not interested.  There's a few others...

    No prototypes for GamesCom, but a Wifi Chip and a Pyra in the dark!

    Or even 80 MHz for bonded AC wireless. ;) The fact that 5 GHz doesn't penetrate walls all that well is almost surely why interference from neighboring networks isn't much of an issue with them. Yes 2.4 has higher usage but at this point even almost all cheap commodity access points and routers...

    No prototypes for GamesCom, but a Wifi Chip and a Pyra in the dark!

    I find 5 GHz range to be a decent amount shorter but also somewhat to significantly faster so long as you're not at the edge of its coverage area (likely due to being much less susceptible to interference from other surrounding networks, etc.), especially if the adapters and network in question...

    Action button labels

    Another all-new idea (I don't think I've something like this mentioned anyway) - how about going directional using standard Latin letters / symbols for labels?  i.e., something like F ^ <   > L v Doing this avoids a problem I've had with basically every game controller ever: it's instantly...

    Release Starcraft

    Quake 4 is just using the Doom 3 (id Tech 4) engine though, no?  Granted the game-specific code hasn't been released, which precludes porting it in the traditional manner, but the core technology driving it is already available.   Rage (id Tech 5) is probably too new to have its source available...

    Nvidia's Project Shield - 'Android & Tegra 4 inside'

     That very well may be possible by adding nullDC as a non-Steam game in Steam and launching it on the Shield in Steam big-picture mode, since that's the workaround for streaming unofficially-supported games to the Shield.  The other gotcha is actually controlling it, but I believe that should be...

    Release Emu EX Plus Alpha ported to the Pandora

    Are the old versions 1.5.9.5?  If so then it's easy to explain as a bug in PND Manager if it's doing its version compares as a string compare instead of tokenizing the version and doing numeric compares of the tokens: as a string, 1.5.10.6 < 1.5.9.5 (because the 1 in the 10 is before 9).  Hence...

    Release Pandafe 0.2.2

    I finally remembered to install this and got around to trying it last night as a universal launcher for the various emulators out there and it's really good stuff, much better than dealing with different file selectors, etc., that all behave differently from one another.  Combined with the fact...

    Release CPU stress test

    Original 256MB CC Pandora here, currently testing at 946 MHz @ OPP5, slowly stepping down over the past day from a high of around 980 MHz (FWIW I had it start at 950 MHz). Its failure rate at a given speed has really slowed the last few hours so it's likely going to be stable very close to...
