    That took a while...

    Beep. Oh, wow! A stovepipe would look awesome with the logo lamps imitating fire light! Maybe add a USB-powered model of a piston-cranked wheel, with cranky old steam engine sound effects. Maybe there's a market for a standardised, low-cost reference doodad consisting of non-backlit colour...

    That took a while...

    Beep. All of those matte materials look the same to us, we don't see in the photos what the differences are. As for colours, we're a little disappointed that we don't yet get to see one we find really appealing in the actual photo. (though the purple photoshop very much tickles our fancy!)...

    If a default choice is set, which desktop environment the Pyra OS should have ?

    Beep. The poll options impress upon us how out of touch we are, because we're used to WM and can only guess from the name that EvilWM would be our best bet. These days, all of our "desktop environment" GUI needs are met with a "run" dialog, Guake, and a directory called "ell" for long...

    hostname ideas

    Beep! This human names our computers, for easy reference. For example, our laptop is named "Aces" and our phone is named "Blueberry Daydream." We intend to buy a Pyra when we have enough money to do so, but don't know what name to give it, so we thought to entertain ourself and hopefully...

    GamesCom Video and Remaining Tasks

    That sounds familiar. "The place on an old TV where the antenna was hooked up with screws" brings up a memory of spade terminals, or ring terminals. They might also be known as spade lugs, (or ring lugs) and the wire end side of the connector would be called a spade connector. (or ring...

    A few Colors and Packages (with a poll!)

    By "black," do you mean something darker than what some of the prototypes are using? It's not gonna be a big deal, but I do hope that "black" refers to what I've been interpreting as "dark grey" in photos of prototypes.

    A few Colors and Packages (with a poll!)

    A "leftover pellets" case would be great if it's very obviously such a mix- so it doesn't look like an accident of poor quality standards. The case is perfectly practical polycarbonate, coloured with mixed-in pigment rather than surface-painted, and it would be nice for it to show that fact...

    Avegant Glyph - as a Pyra companion device?

    No! No sharp things in the eyes! That sounds like a display to me. A headset display in Pyra's native resolution sounds super-neato, thanks for sharing this find! I dunno if it's for me, but its existence does positively affect the desirability of the Pyra for some peops, and I'm pleased to...
