Man the clear prototype still looks the best.
So, what's the current status of everything?

Any unboxing videos already?

I'm so excited! There's a chance we will all get our Pyras before the end of the decade!
2020 will be the Year of the Pyra, and of E-Bikes , which fits pretty good..

Still fresh, damnit!
I'd hope so, since there's still a year until that happens (if you believe that we really started counting at year 1 AD)
Edit: I really should learn better at noticing that 'there's another page' notice (or whatever it says) at the end.

You at risk of confusing offsets with numbers, which seems to be an oft-occuring problem amongst programmers?

Are you sure? If the decades run contiguous from the start, they would begin at the start of 1 CE and run to the end of 10CE, making ten whole years. So the next would be 11CE to 20CE, and the current one would be Jan 2011 to Dec 2020.
Of course, they're a more recent invention as far as I know, so nobody's actually saying they need to run contiguously from the start, unlike the centuries. I'd be perfectly willing to accept that the third digit is more important than any derivation, but my comment was intended to be flippant and something of a joke, so being slightly ridiculous is permitted.

Yeah, but that's not ED's concern at the moment. It's a side project of HNS only for now at least, and he's waiting for phone software development and testing on the Pyra itself first mainly at present I think.

Preparing for a Prototype
Shipping labels out of the way and the packing tape cut: First thing to be seen: Well packed box: Lots of stuff in there... Here is all of it out of the packing materials: The black box is a GPD Mciro PC - I bought one from EDs shop and asked him to ship it with my prototype. The...

The latter I'd call the second decade of this century. The 20-10s I'd call the years matching /201[0-9]/. But that's just me. I don't know what the norm says. And I don't remember what my point was writing my last comment.

Looks like sndio may be a way to have a clean audio:

And the extra bonus: kicks out pulseaudio.

One of the main reasons PulseAudio is being used is the ability to configure Bluetooth audio devices on the fly, if it doesn't support that we could just as well go back to full ALSA.

Why shouldn't it be possible ?

BlueALSA: Bluetooth-Audio using ALSA (not PulseAudio)
Yesterday I did get a new little Bluetooth-Speaker, but without AUX - I rechecked some Bluetooth-Commands. But could never connect, because the Pi missed the protocol A2DP - which was only available with PulseAudio as Bluetooth-Module So I used my 2nd OrangePi One with USB-Bluetooth-Dongle and ma...

Plus I'll note I don't have any of the issues listed on that link. My audio hardware does sometimes crap out and it takes a second to reconnect which usually hits once or twice per album but I recall it does similar using ALSA, and it certainly never does any of the bullshit they talk about there. I can see reasons to distrust pulseaudio, most of them beginning with some slight against the sayer by a certain LP, but lying about the project I'm using to make me use another doesn't work for me.

The prototypes have gone out, and they are starting to be received and worked with. That is pretty big news, imo.
Seem to be a lot of fiddling around for the end user.Why shouldn't it be possible ?

It looks like you need to choose the alsa audio device each time you want to play audio to speaker / headphone / bluetooth.
With Pulseaudio, you can redirect the stream on-the-fly, which is a huge advantage.

You should not talk like a troll about these people who are very respectful of the free software movement. Shame on you.

I think some of us are trying to avoid pulse and friends.

Seems only a user-space tweaking, at least it's worth investigating.
