    The What Music Are You Listening To Thread

    The acapella performance of The Lion Sleeps Tonight reminded me of Zach Sherwin's Grit & Grin: The smile is a little bit creepy, but it's an awesome skill.

    The What Music Are You Listening To Thread

    Going off on a short rant: Here in Germany, we have a state-authorized collecting company on fees to musical rights called GEMA which pretty much makes most music on YouTube impossible to watch here as they demand much higher fees than the ads even make. They've been often critisized by users...

    The RetroPi

    Erm... does anybody remember this thread? Is there any news, @EvilDragon ? I thought the Kickstarter wasn't that far away from completion when you made your last post. I even read your whole Twitter feed since January just in case I had missed something, but there was nothing about the RetroPi...

    Dragon's Lair - August 16 (C4A competition)

    I sadly don't have a Pandora, but if I did, this would be freaking awesome: Playing games I possibly didn't know before to compete with other forum members for a voucher in your shop? That's amazingly generous for a small company like yours and brings the community closer together. And doing all...

    WTB Pandora by paying gradually + extra cash. *Updated* price is up for negotiations

    This was (probably) a bad joke by @rygD , pretty much everyone on this forum agrees that the PGS is a scam. It's not easy to get a 1GHz Pandora for 300€ anyways, and with the added risk of you being a scammer, it's not as good of a deal as you may think. Even if you aren't a scammer, it just...

    USB-C

    While USB-C is definitly cool and all, it wasn't a big thing when the Pyra project was started and changing something like this would mean the molds and PCB designs have to be changed. And USB-C still isn't as important of a thing, most laptops only have 1 or 2 ports. Yes, I personally would be...

    PGS Windows 10 gaming handheld - GPD WIN competitor

    After they were informed by a possible backer on KS that the frequencies just don't work in the United States, they said: So: Their "incredible japanese engineers" didn't even know about mobile frequencies until they got a message on Kickstarter. They sure are incredible. They claim to already...

    The Ballad of Modern Devices

    @erico Yes, I've been using CM10 since the week I bought my Note 2 in 2012. It works fine and probably faster than the original version, but I have very little experience with the Samsung ROM, so I can't tell for sure. Sadly, the stable version CM10.1.3-N7100 has not been updated since 2013...

    PGS Windows 10 gaming handheld - GPD WIN competitor

    They actually posted the fequencies of the LTE module: 4G: FDD-LTE: Bands 1(2100MHz)/3(1800MHz)/7(2600MHz), TDD-LTE: Bands 38(TD2600)/39(TD1900)/40(TD2300)/41(TD2500) 3G: TD-SCDMA: Bands 34(TD2000)/39(TD1900), WCDMA: Bands 1(2100MHz)/2(1900MHz)/5(850MHz)/8(900MHz), CDMA 2000: BC0/BC1 2G: GSM...

    Things I want to see: Reicast of course Mupen with and without custom textures rendered in 480p and/or 720p (preferably Banjo-Kazooie) the temperatures of the protoype with everything running (only ED can deliver this) Exagear if hardware acceleration works in it, too Vanilla Minecaft DraStic...

    PGS Windows 10 gaming handheld - GPD WIN competitor

    This whole story just makes me sad. A shitty 3D printed case with a monitor in it for a hidden tablet, a few rendered images and some dubbed guy in a video with horrible lighting seems to be enough to get $34k on Kickstarter. Looking at what ED did before he felt confident enough to release the...

    PGS Windows 10 gaming handheld - GPD WIN competitor

    They even admit it in their Kickstarter draft, just above the video: Soooo... Does that even count as a prototype? Is Kickstarter OK with that? Any customers surely shouldn't be, but most people will probably not understand it and tech journalists often neither read all of the text. I just hope...

    PGS Windows 10 gaming handheld - GPD WIN competitor

    No wonder they put it just at the bottom of the page xD That looks absolutely horrible... And wasn't the lite unit advertised as Full HD? You can still see the option in the navigation bar of their website, but all spec charts say 720p. Strange, but not nearly as strange as that video. One of...

    Damn! I actually already thought the 3D driver wouldn't make it this year, but just after the first units are in the hands of users. I'm so excited for videos, but take your time ED, the message alone is more than I and probably a lot of other members anticipated. Edit: And pretty much at the...

    Bitbox : a small open, DIY 32 bit VGA console

    I don't have much of an idea about low-level programming, but would it be theoretically possible to use one of the Cortex M4 MCUs the Pyra has to reproduce the BitBox more exact and using less energy than with emulation? Or doesn't the Pyra have Floating Point Units in its M4s, rendering my idea...

    Okay, I have to admit, the argument I made was too much based on my personal opinion and spiced with insults. That being said, I have no problem at all with an extra case being whatever colour or clear, as long as people here don't get the illusion that every opinion can be catered to with such...

    PGS Windows 10 gaming handheld - GPD WIN competitor

    I could be wrong on this as my source is basically just a NeoGAF post that rehashes other news sources, but didn't they say it was between 230 and 260$ after they pulled the first Kickstarter and when wanted to bring the PGS to retail with money fom a private investor? Before the incident with...

    PGS Windows 10 gaming handheld - GPD WIN competitor

    My two cents on this thing: As long as they don't show any prototypes and have made no devices like this before, I have no expectations at all. No, I don't want to see it added to the comparison chart, because there is nothing to compare between an idea for a device and 2 computers that are...

    I personally would never buy a device with useless LEDs just to look 1337, and I like the LEDs in the Pyra just because they serve a purpose: Notifying the user, making the keyboard better visible at night etc. A clear case would make the LEDs shine trough the sides when you use the device at...
