Oops, I confused Cubieboard and Cubox, which does have an i.MX6.

A standard chipset isn't needed - but drivers and a standard way to detect the hardware is. The latter is handled by device trees - a hardware description loaded by the bootloader into memory, alongside the kernel.

One big thing here is that unlike Raspian or derived distros that use its kernel, Fedora is building their own mainline kernel. We're finally getting close to the day where installing on ARM will be as easy as x86, with no custom kerne

Take a normal CPU, delete the instructions that aren't used by scrypt, and bam, you have a cheaper and more power efficient chip. In general, you can't prevent ASICs unless you maximally utilize commodity hardware.

Thank you for adding KiCad! I was really excited when I saw that SnapEDA added support. Doing manual parts is always tedious in any tool, and KiCad is lacking automated generators for some of these - previously, I had been using an online P

You get full 2D from the Linux kernel, but yeah the 3D GPU is Mali, so no luck if you need OpenGL (in hardware).

The image is already over 4000 pixels high, maybe the automatic process has a limit.

ICIP also included a lossless image compression comparison (though much less detailed than their lossy image comparison) https://people.xiph.org/~tdaede/icip2016_small.pdf

Classic multiple choice grading machines will print out the number of incorrect answers on a final sheet passed through, next to each question (where the checkmark normally is). A lot simpler than PCA, but still pretty effective in finding

Nor would I expect it to - that's what extensions are for. This is a one-click tool.

Well, Bugzilla uses the same namespace for bugs and patches. The submitter didn't upload patches at all, just asm text files, so from Bugzilla's point of view this is a bug. Not really sure there's anything to "fix"

I was able to make successful projects with the Zynq a few years ago, but it is a pretty steep challenge - it requires pretty broad knowledge of software, Linux, and hardware design. The general process was very convoluted - requiring HDL t

Nope, ringing is the effect of a high-pass (or band-pass) filter - it's the opposite of smoothing. JPEG looses information by quantization, not low-passing. It is true that small high frequency coefficients will get rounded to 0 during

It has less users than PGP/MIME, which is an impressive feat.

Chrome now uploads all browsing history associated with a Google login too, so it's a lot of extra valuable information for ads.

Well, the bug report made clear that it worked before with the official extension and doesn't work now. It depends on how pedantic you want to be with "supported".

Probably the most obvious indication would be temperature. Assuming they are in parallel, it'd be quite wise to measure their discharge curves to only select similar cells - that would also highlight any bad ones.

Yes, but if some other miner decides to actually build on top of the other block, the miner that chooses not to will get orphaned and lose their block reward. In addition, the cost of the expensive blocks is a burden on the entire network,

Yes, it's possible to do that. I'm not sure if the current miner is, though.

Sounds right. In Bitcoin, there are also some opcodes that are more expensive than others (hashing) which have been limited to a certain count per block.

But regardless, Google still gets to track it because it goes through their CDN.

They can only claim things in the claims section. The two independent claims are #1 and #13. The description is mostly fluff - they really are just attempting to patent a 60% recycled white bag.

This is a patent application that pretty much has 0% chance of being accepted as-is. What will happen is the filer will play the game with the patent examiner where they move dependent claims into the independent claim until it's just

The results I've seen aren't that bad - within spec, and unlikely to cause problems for anyone else (especially on UHF/VHF - if this were HF it'd be different). The receive sensitivity isn't great, but they are a fa
