    Google releases SwiftShader OpenGL ES software rendering library as open source

    After a quick check, mesa's newest built-in software rasterizer, llvmpipe, seems to be pretty efficient. However, it looks like it doesn't support ARM assembly.

    Replicant port to Pyra / Pandora ? (poll)

    Doesn't it use UPnP or something similar ?

    A few Colors and Packages (with a poll!)

    I guess somebody is spending some time in Syden :p

    A few Colors and Packages (with a poll!)

    Afaik, the adapter isn't proprietary, it is custom. It also doesn't have any kind of logic.

    Maru OS ?

    I didn't find any noteworthy documentation, but it looks like Maru OS is just Android with a (well configured) Debian chroot and the chroot outputs its graphics output towards HDMI. I might be wrong. (I didn't spend too much time on it)

    Minimum resolution on Pyra screen

    Does that mean the Pyra won't support DRM (Direct Rendering Manager) ? I'm not an expert, but as far as I understand fbdev seems to pose certain problems which DRM solved.

    Colorful week

    As far as I know, having more RAM would have a positive impact in one case : Disk access caching. The RAM should still be faster than any available storage. However, one would need a very specific use case to really see a lot of improvement. My laptop has 4 GB of RAM and is configured to save...

    Ideal Pyra configuration & Accessories

    I doubt that the switch would take that long. We're not talking about a relay or similar.

    Pyra debian with systemd?

    An additional proof that systemd is well designed :P

    Reverse ssh setup for pandora/pyra hw security.

    Well, the question is, what is "home". Is it somebody else's or my own machine ?

    Able to upgrade not just the speed but manufacturer of CPU?

    As far as I remember, the only problem would be that the OS (read: The Linux kernel) has to be 64-bit. That's it. Since only a minority of the Pyra specific code would be ARMv7-A specific, it shouldn't be a problem. On an application level, ARMv8-A is totally compatible with previous versions.

    Able to upgrade not just the speed but manufacturer of CPU?

    I think that's because your profile doesn't say "Moderator" or "Staff Member" :P

    Hardware security

    As far as I understand it, it totally would be able to. It might be more or less efficient than a conventional computer (QC is not going to revolutionize the world of spreadsheets ...), but it shouldn't be impossible. The problem with OTP is that if you intercept an encrypted text, trying out...

    Hardware security

    That's called one-time pad and doesn't work with public-key crypto. If there is a public-key crypto that can't be (theoretically easily) broken by QC, I would like to know myself.

    Able to upgrade not just the speed but manufacturer of CPU?

    I know, that's why I used an exclamation mark.

    Hardware security

    Basically, QC is able to solve most crypto problems that don't use a bijection from the origin set into the target set (or in general sets of the same size).

    Able to upgrade not just the speed but manufacturer of CPU?

    Why doing licensing from ARM ? Just hire hns to design a full SoC from scratch !

    Appimage instead of pnd?

    I see two logical fallacies. First, the fact that anyone spend any amount of time on any task doesn't give it any value. Just because I spent "countless hours" drawing something doesn't mean that the result will be good. Then, you do not tell us (or even link to) the merits of the DBP system...

    Appimage instead of pnd?

    Actually, how much can the DBP format do that AppImage can't ? How much is due to the daemon ?

    Appimage instead of pnd?

    Well, you still need a script system to create the packages.
