    Not everything is as fast as planned

    Landscape 5" LCDs are non-existent. So the rotator chip is needed no matter what LCD you use, unless you want to GPU-rotate everything like Android does.

    I now want that bacon button. I don't know what it does, but I'd press it.

    Alternatives to the pyra?

    The pyra has 3G/4G support, so as soon as someone writes a phone/SMS program for it, you will be able to use it as phone. If you want to make calls, you'll then have the option between looking incredible stupid and using a headset.

    Alternatives to the pyra?

    An android device with game controls is not that rare nowadays (even nvidia is doing something like that IIRC. Also, is ouya still a thing?). A pocketable device with a proper keyboard is pretty rare. And if you want a pockatable device with a proper keyboard and game controls, well...

    Some more prototype info

    there's an awful lot of "this week" in your post... would be a shame if that turned into 2 monthstm.

    New pyra picture for main page

    Don't use GIFs. They're way larger while having a worse quality than WebM/MP4s; see also http://gfycat.com/about Something even better would be using three.js, which can be used to render the pyra to CSS3D (example), HTML5canvas (example) or WebGL (example) which then could be used for...

    How to calculate a price for the Pyra

    Well, if you can explain fundamental physics (higgs bosons 'n' stuff) by using economics, you probably can also explain economics by using fundamental physics.  https://www.youtube.com/embed/RznZ_e6aDHc?feature=oembed

    Devuan, anyone?

    The guy who made this thing has – understandably – stopped updating in 2012. And until then probably nobody told him that SZ exists.

    (bold greenwriters, can we have get a systemd discuss thread? I think that could be useful)   Security concerns are always there. New code may add new security holes, yes. More code may have more security holes, yes. But old code may have undetected security holes as well; the shellshock bug...

    Pyra Audio Driver - PulseAudio

    In terms of pure init, systemd is indeed overly complex. In terms of managing the system, it's almost certainly less complex than the two dozen of bash scripts sort of trying to do the same stuff. Also, the crazy stuff (e.g. systemd-journal-gatewayd to have the logs in a http server) is...
