Steam as DRM is basically the best case scenario. It is opt-in for developers, meaning there is no DRM at all for some games on Steam. You can download it, back it up, run it without Steam. The games that do use Steam's DRM are trivial

Although they can be used in similar ways they work very differently. * Cooperative vs. preemptive scheduling * Userspace vs. kernel scheduling * Stackless vs. stackful * Easy control over waiting/blocking behavior vs. none * Easy fan

Other boards with the same MCU as the Pico, yes. The only downside is you lose one GPIO.

Lerc was referring to driving multiple PSRAM chips from a single Pico with PIO/DMA. The CPU will only work with a single PSRAM chip.

520KB of SRAM is actually on the high end for microcontrollers. It doesn't seem like much but SRAM is on-die and significantly lower density than DRAM. For comparison, it's the same type of memory used for CPU caches, which are al

Can surely get more bandwidth but the it's less useful because it will not be directly accessible by the CPU anymore.

The RP2350 (Pico 2) supports external PSRAM so you can add several MB more there if you need it.

Interesting! I've only seen the older projects which probably predate the ESP32-S3. I wonder how usable this is in reality though because you typically can only buy modules with up to 8MB of PSRAM, so you'd have to swap the PSRAM

Not natively. It's not a supported architecture and lacks an MMU. Those who have run Linux on it have done so through a RISC-V emulator or similar.

I didn't even cover push notification permission in my comment. The PWA also needs to ask for permission to send push notifications after the user adds it to their home screen, so they're the same. > If all you need is push n

Yes, on laptops, but even on most desktops now too. Higher number of channels is getting more limited to server systems.

How does soldering memory help reduce sleep power consumption vs. using a socket? What is different other than how they are physically connected to the board?

Assuming you're referring to Apple Silicon's memory bandwidth, that is not necessarily because the memory is on-die. The bandwidth comes from having more channels to access memory. This gives the SoC a wider bus to increase throug

There is no VRAM in this laptop so how is it not unified? The CPU and GPU both share the same memory.

Lets say you were making an app and had to decide between native or PWA. You don't need much more than push notifications so there shouldn't be a big difference between the two. You do your research and find that you can either

Autopilot is completely different software from FSD. If you think FSD is stupid then Autopilot is worse because it won't do anything other than stay in the same lane and adjust speed to the car in front of you. For some reason you coul

It sounds like it would be complicated but it's really not! The server should already be sending a snapshot of the world when you connect and then stream deltas after that. If you capture all of the packets the server sends you can moc

The big issue is that Tesla has sold all of their cars with an option for FSD until a month or two ago, but everything before 2023 is basically confirmed never going to actually have FSD because the latest software cannot run on the hardwar
