Considering both are WebKit based, I think Chromium would be better off than Midori. Midori uses C/C++ based plugins, right? Which means no cross compat. Chrome, however, uses javascript plugins (IIRC) which allows for much larger support.

The year 2038 problem is a silly overhyped issue. Not nearly as bad as y2k, but still quite horrible. A 32 bit CPU *can* handle numbers larger than 32 bit, by using two registers for it (essentially making it a 64 bit number). gcc/g++ can already handle this easily, using signed long long...

Agreed. I was looking into the Chevy Volt, which is an interesting concept (electric for first ~60km, then switches to gas) and something I'd really actually buy... until I saw the price tag. 40,000USD, down to 32,500 with the US tax credit being offered. Either way it's way too expensive for...

You might wanna look into a proxy server for tethering. I run a standard SOCKSv5 proxy on a server which re encodes images to be lower quality, gzip's all webpages (most servers don't gzip... I still want to know why), removes javascript etc. If it causes problems I can pass it params, say I...

You need to talk to your network admins, then. The only way a Pandora virus could attempt to infect Windows networks was if it was made *specifically* to run on the Pandora. Most viruses aim x86 Windows users. This *could* affect Linux users via wine, but not to a serious extent. The virus could...

This is much more accurate of a post. You can get infected quite easily, any virus that takes advantage of an exploit in FireFox, with a properly built Linux binary, could infect you. As to how much damage can be done... if you're an idiot and run as root, you can get keylogged, entire system...

Precaching is a nasty and stupid technology. It wastes bandwidth and breaks shit left and right. Not to mention, it shouldn't even work on gp32x. If it does, you have some *serious* issues ahead.

Would you mind sharing what those plugins are? At least the 3 you use daily.

My post was off topic? I suggest re-reading what I was talking about.... NoScript is an addon for FireFox which prevents the use of Javascript on all pages, except ones in a white list. This prevents any exploits within the JavaScript engine from being used to install viruses. When we are...

What? Why are you bringing up anti virus' in a topic about web browsers? And why did you completely get that statement wrong?

Performance = low memory > basic browsing > gestures > plugins. Plugins are really, highly overrated imho. AdBlock can be done outside of the browser, and you don't need virus protection like NoScript on a Linux machine... so, there really isn't anything else I'd want. Chromium will overall be...

Yes, I know about memory leaks, but the fact that they still exist in FOSS project like FireFox after all these years bugs me. Chromium handles it nicely, imho.

This is with just two tabs open, ugh. I wouldn't even be using FireFox if work didn't require it.

It isn't Google's fault, this is how the site is identifying itself via meta tags. From the English page: <meta name="description" content="OpenPandora.org - Açık Kaynak Kodlu Pandora Taşınabilir Oyun Konsolunun Resmi Websitesi" />

Why exactly does it have to be optimized for ARM? It's coded in C++, and I doubt they are using inline ASM anywhere. Also, : http://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/LinuxChromiumArm

They are aware: http://twitter.com/bobsonsir/status/5078971933 I wonder how Turkish language got onto the website, though...

Or we could just all use Chrome and not have to worry about speeds, at all. *cough*

Look up the date I posted on a calendar.

gary@snuggles:~/qqbot/bin/Debug$ python -c "print 'The pandora will be ready %i.11.2009' % __import__('random').randint(1,31)" The pandora will be ready 31.11.2009 *coughs*

It is basically just a front end. I never said it wasn't. I don't think the OP intended he wanted an emulator that was possible to run completely different systems from the same code...
