    I need a new device. What is the best choice?

    What I really like are some of the homemade Rasberry Pi handhelds. Unfortunately most of them lack the quality needed. Case is usually not very well executed, gamepad / buttons are also a problem and battery life is lacking. That said, there is a ton of rpi information out there and this could...

    C64 was just an example of an older device still being repaired by enthusiasts or companies. Pandora was still being sold by ED in 2016 so if your LCD or cable died in 2018 that is basically less than 2 years of support. I understand the reasons for that but still, something similar might also...

    You can still repair a C64 from 1982 and get almost all components and even new motherboards. That kind of support is not available for the Pandora. Some of the issues: - The connector on the motherboard for the LCD cable broke off from one of my Pandora's, no motherboard replacement...

    Is there a way to get a LCD cable?

    So it is just a matter of reaching out to companies or individuals and check the costs to make a very low quantity of cables and provide them these drawings? https://pyra-handheld.com/boards/resources/pandora-lcd-cable.4551/ Maybe check on Ben Heck forums for ideas? Non commercial use of the...

    GHZ Pandora can play Netflix with Android (maybe CC and Rebirth too)

    Nice to see it is still working :) You never how for long though.. only one update is needed to break it (seen that on several other 'closed' formats eg. Whatsapp/EverNote/Skype). Kodi 18 should be able to play Netflix as well and might be the best option for long time support...

    Update Hatari 2.1.0

    Hope 2.2.0 solves the autosave/start functionality as well :) They seem to have updated something regarding saving snapshots: Improve memory snapshot save/restore reliability

    Release DraStic Nintendo DS emulator

    Best way to contact Exophase is posting or PM here https://drastic-ds.com/index.php Wouldn't surprise me if ED is already/still in contact with him though.

    Rebirth With Color Problems

    If it was very easy and/or cheap I think ED would have already done it, the first batch of cables were troublesome so quality also matters. That said, if ED doesn't want to do it and someone else with experience in this field wants to make them I certainly want to buy a couple of them...

    Secure Skype alternatives ?

    Always like the objectives of retroshare, not very well known but still impressive - it has VOIP but not sure if it has multi-user voip. https://retroshare.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

    Rebirth With Color Problems

    Without anyone providing LCD cables it can't be fixed anyway. ED has other priorities and doesn't seem to have time anymore to answer support questions or PMs. His shop and Pyra are more important. Not sure if it helps, but there is an option to connect a Pandora to a TV set with a TV out cable...

    Rebirth With Color Problems

    Wasn't ED trying to purchase a new batch of LCD cables? The best thing about the products from ED are his long lasting support and that is also the main reason why I buy from him. I understand that you cannot provide customer support endlessly but Pandora's LCD cables was and is a known problem.

    [SOLD] Pandora 1ghz

    I assume the price is in AUD and not USD? Economy shipping is not too bad to my location (Netherlands) 23 AUD. Seems like a very good deal if it is in AUD, even if the buyer needs to pay for shipment. I have enough Pandora's but still.. it was tempting.

    Wrapping everything up!

    I agree it certainly has some Kafkaesque elements, but it feels more like a technical adventure. BTW. I never considered Kafka to be very thrilling - tbh I even thought it was quite boring.. BTW2. Not trying to hurt anyone's feelings, I acknowledge the fact this isn't fun for folks waiting for...

    Wrapping everything up!

    The whole Pandora / Pyra story reads like novel. It is awesome! Don't really need it but might pick up a Pyra after launch anyway, just to remind myself it isn't fiction :)

    What are you playing this weekend/these days?

    It has been a while since I played it, not sure but I think Cancer was also my Waterloo. I think the best approach was using the cells that 'learn' to attack a specific microbe. On http://c4a.openpandora.org/ 2nd score is from me :) Would be nice to see someone challenging the 1st place from...

    GPD MicroPC

    I would be very interested if I didn't have a GPD Pocket yet. I love the additional ports. An SD card slot and removable battery would make it complete. Don't need two similar devices though, but might sell my Pocket if this turn out right.

    MetalJesusRocks : How do we prioritize what we PLAY?!

    Indeed, ptitSeb doesn't really help fixing a backlog ;) Don't play a lot but if I do it is for a few minutes and mainly on my Pandora. Maybe I will have some more time during the holidays to (re)visit some old games. Playing MegaMan is on my list too, but the list is more than 100 games long so...
