Wow. What an incredibly dense assumption to make about people you know literally nothing about. I think you are projecting, buddy. My financial situation is fine. I am quite certain I have a better idea how to handle my money than you do, random internet stranger. I almost got defensive...

I was more referring to Elw3 who (i assume jokingly) suggested people should be punished for such behavior, without understanding that SplitIt basically provides a loan/credit, rather than a piggybank. However upon further thought, the fault may lie with me as my OP doesn't exactly spell that...

You all seem to misunderstand how the Splitit service works. It's credit. Like a credit card. I could buy a $2000 Purism laptop right now by only paying the first installment. It's not like Layaway where I don't get the item until the last installment is paid, I would get the item...

Care to elaborate? For those of us with stable long-term employment, installment payments can be very useful. Especially with no interest. Also, when buying a phone, most people sign a multi-year contract that covers the cost of the phone itself, so they don't have to pay the entire hardware...

Hello! I was wondering if you would consider adding SplitIt (https://www.splitit.com/) as a payment method? Some items you sell (like the Pyra!) are expensive, and being able to enter a payment plan rather than paying upfront would very likely increase sales quite a bit. Personally, I will...

I'm not sure if it's been fixed since icedtea-web-1.2 but the icedtea javaws used to have problems loading large JNLP files: http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/release/icedtea-web-1.2/rev/dde230f3536a I can't tell if it's related but it did cause issues loading classes beyond a certain point.

Well, drat. I appreciate the effort! Interestingly, Wurm Online was co-created by Notch, the Minecraft creator, shortly before he left Wurm to make Minecraft. The two games are remarkably similar in many respects, although Wurm is more of a complex, slower paced sandbox. The fact that we...

Thank you for the suggestion. I downloaded version 8u202 of the Arm 32bit JDK on Linux (for Armv8/v7/v6 Soft Float ABI) package from the link you gave me, but it does not appear to include the Java Web Start binary anywhere in the tarball. All the other normal java binaries are there, but...

Sorry for the long delay, my Pandora required further repairs to work again. The Java PND you linked is the same one I started with. It installs JRE7, however the Java Web Start binary still comes from OpenJDK 6. I think what I need is the Java Web Start ARM SoftFP binary from Java 7 or 8...

So, I've never played Link's Awakening. I have, however, beaten the original Zelda gold-cartridge on the NES a few dozen times at least (and still have the full map including Second Quest as a poster on the wall of my garage), and I've beaten the strange Zelda II for the NES a couple of times...

Well the Java Web Start that is failing is JDK 6, so maybe 7 will work? Are there any PND's with JDK 7 included? I'm not sure how to build it myself...

So how does one go about building the icedtea plugin? I couldn't even figure out how to install OpenJDK, as the linux ARM versions on the Oracle website are all hardfp and I'm pretty sure Pandora is softfp.

Oh, I didn't mean to suggest he is a teenager, just point out that his post makes him sound like one. Yeah, I was basically choosing between ignoring him entirely, or communicating in his language. I chose the latter, it's more entertaining, and there's a chance that if the way his posts make...

Not spending much time attached to a phone sounds "sad and depressive" to you? That's kind of sad, and depressing. Me neither! High five, bro! Haha yeah you definitely sound like the coolest egotistical teenager on the block! Bro-fist! ()()()(), Personally I don't ever hold my...

Drat! Well, thank you for trying. The Java PND does install Java Web Start and can launch JNLP files, but it uses OpenJDK 6, and that specific version of Java Web Start has problems with large JNLP files. I hope to at least get Java Web Start from JRE7, that would work, but everything I can...

Well, thanks to some free time at work and half a pound of electrical tape I got my Pandora to work again!! I downloaded the Destination Sol PND and checked it out, but in the jre9/bin directory there's "Java" but no javaws. I need Java Web Start, the normal java binary won't load JNLP files...

I would be ok with microphone data being sent over the internet for voice recognition purposes if it was push-to-talk only and I could be reasonably certain only I can activate it. Though I would happily buy a Pyra-connected smartwatch without even half of the features I listed.

I used my Pandora every day. I create a new playlist each morning before work, choosing music that fits my mood and will get me through the workday. At work, I connect it to the speaker system i brought in and hooked up and play music from it. During breaks or periods of downtime at work, i...

You seem defensive. I too am curious as to the motivation behind your behavior. Less so the commercial branding, more so the reason you'd decide to do something so rude as to paraphrase something Grench said as "HUR DUR", when his post was respectfully asking a question, and not demeaning or...

Thank you for your suggestion but unfortunately it's become a moot point. I was 1/2 way through installing Destination Sol PND when my cat chose the wrong moment to jump from the couch and take my pandora with it. The battery cover is broken, and I cannot find a way to secure the battery tight...
