    The Communication Cube

    Fine. So your submarines can swim. I don't think it will be cheaper. Music is free, you can create your own, and not so many centuries ago people used to do. It doesn't get cheaper than that. People has also payed for music, now and ever (or long enough ago). Now people pays for music with...

    The Communication Cube

    It's as Djoga'Ro says: AIs don't know, and don't think. They just react. But who cares? As late Professor Dijkstra used to say (or they say he said): “The question of whether a computer can think is no more interesting than the question of whether a submarine can swim.”

    Absurdism corner

    As long as the teacher can afford a pen, the teacher could have written "gelb", "brün", "rot", "grün", "blau", usw. before photocopying the color page in black and white...

    The Communication Cube

    Well, I would assume it's advertising. Search engines answer what someone paid them to say, why should a more expensive product ever tell "facts" ?

    The Communication Cube

    Someone just ported Linux to an overclocked Intel 4004 (not natively, over an emulated MIPS R3000). And it boots in less than 5 days. <3

    Absurdism corner

    Then rejoice. In some places the police policy, or at least its practice, is obviously "hands off thieves". In some places it's the legislative and judiciary setting the fact, and it doesn't matter what the police does.. I think some judgement and jail time would be in order, but what do I know...

    And now they have a followup. Poor on details, just the same shit found on more devices (including ATMs, voting machines, medical devices ...)

    Absurdism corner

    - I bought this TV and now I want my money back. It doesn't turn on and it doesn't show anything. No ghosts, nothing. - Ghosts don't exist, so it works as advertised. - But I want to see tormented souls... - Well, any glass is a mirror with the right lighting, it shouldn't be hard to see...

    The Communication Cube

    I have no clue in fluid physics or thermodynamics but if it's so small, the volume of air in an out will also be small, I guess it tries to compensate by accelerating it really fast, but still. Can it really cool better than a metal heat spreader ? In the picture the device is open, and it sucks...

    20*C Cooler, and now with water resistance!

    Can one do that by editing dts alone ?How would it be ? Or does one need to change the governor code in the kernel ? Do you add to the dts an operating point with the same frequency as your previous point but an higher voltage and then a point with the higher voltage and the higher frequency ? I...

    20*C Cooler, and now with water resistance!

    I don't know. I suspect an stress test is needed. If the stress test fails, then discard the settings. If it passes, then still test usual daylife usage for three days or so ? But I don't know what would be good for an stress test. There might not be a single answer, because each user may use...

    20*C Cooler, and now with water resistance!

    Taken literally, because 50 miliherz is too fine a step, and I doubt the hardware can be so fine tuned. But you meant 50 MHz, of course. I have no experience with a Pyra. My intuition would be that a 50MHz would not give user distiguishable results in performance, battery life or even stability...

    You can get a dts from a dtb. It will always be worse than the original source, but it might help a little sometimes. Sorry if everybody knew it.

    LeTux OS

    I don't know, if PyraOS works but LetuxOS not, I'd keep comparing what's in /etc/X11 in bith (specially xorg.conf, xorg.conf.d) and your last log in LetuxOS with /var/log/Xorg.0.log or /var/log/lightdm/x-0.log or similar. I find curious that your last log says [ 98.084] falling back to...

    LeTux OS

    No idea. MAybe send the whole log ? Is your kernel command line right ? is there a root= parameter with the right device ? Is that device brought up ok?

    LeTux OS

    No idea, sorry for the noise, but are you using a regular Pyra or an early prototype to test it? IF a prototype, might teh boot order have changed or something ? some handling of some mux for emmc or SD ? I don't know. MAybe it's the hardware booting first from emmc, and not the image...

    Oops ! I just realized the MLO in https://github.com/PyraOS/OS_Build/tree/main/makeimg_data/uboot-versions are around 64 KB, and the ones gcc-12 generated with -msoft-loat -march=armv7-a are 117KB. I'm afraid this won't work. With earlier gcc U-boot was compiled without -msoft-float and with...

    Help Needed with eFPGA and Game Development on Pyra

    Why? There's a lot of disinformation already, because of a number of reasons, and that's what fuels both the demand and the raw material for generative AI nonsense. It's both that we've fomented enough nonsense online that AI can draw from any kind of absurd material, and that we've been...

    Well, this is all I got for now. I'll attach a Dockerfile (edit: please remove the .txt extension, it didn't allow me to upload with the real name) if I can, which seems to be able to cross-compile an MLO, but I can't test the resulting MLO. The problem I've had is that gcc 12 didn't want to...

    I can believe that, but I suspect from my vast ignorance that it may also not work with different 2GB RAM chips or different PCB layout even with the same 2GB RAM chips. I don't know enough to judge, but I think that should be oversimplistic. It's almost as if you're thinking in a...
