Yes, I'd also like to know the status of Flash in particular. However, they were pretty clear about the methodology of their test - their Macbook was factory-restored, they measured power using current measurement at the DC input and i

This code is probably written by embedded software engineers like myself. No one knows anything about security, and certainly hasn't heard of a fuzzer. If the code works, it ships. The other parts of Android written in C++ are also a h

SDRs that can transmit at wifi bandwidths are also getting cheaper by the day. And don't forget the billions of wifi devices already out there that aren't subject to this restriction... I really don't know what or who they ar

There have been cases of manufacturers shipping routers without DFS, where OpenWRT correctly refuses to enable 5GHz Wifi: http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wdr7500

This could also be a problem for wifi chips in laptops. The existing Linux regulatory domain framework has been sufficient for now.

The API you are looking for is WebRTC. VP8 is the most widely used codec for it, but you could use H.264 baseline if you really wanted. You will need to include a WebRTC stack in your server though, which is a lot more complicated. But I th

There are a variety of factories producing these at variable quality. I'd still recommend the Nooelec version if you have the budget to spare.

As usual for github.io links, you need to either disable mixed content blocking, or turn of HTTPS Everywhere for this demo to work.

In addition, Xiph also has two lossy codecs, Vorbis and Opus, which are actually designed for lossy encoding. Opus is also currently the best available codec for music compression, among both free and nonfree competitors: http://

It's being standardized in the NETVC video codec working group at the IETF. Cisco has also contributed a new royalty-free codec called Thor.

I haven't seen any activity around the Qt port for a long time. Really the main visible difference is the file/print dialogs. I think maybe XDG would be a better way to standardize that, and would fix many other apps as well.

To determine if you infringe this patent, you only need to look at the claims - specifically, the independent claims (claim 1). If you do anything differently, you don't infringe.

Awesome! I would have funded the campaign had I known this information at the time.

I think he was referring to VirtualBox in particular - its kernel modules are endless sources of problems. KVM has its modules in mainline, so it's a more popular choice for kernel development.

I've plugged in a few friends' Epson printers and it just worked. I don't think I have yet to run across a printer that didn't work in the last 5 years or so (maybe it's just because my printer usage is declining)

They also of course did the opposite with Swift - created a proprietary front end.

On Firefox, the profiler tool will show you garbage collection in red. For me, there are pauses too, but they are not caused by garbage collection.

Yeah, it seems to be broken when your browser window isn't wide enough.

The Firefox for Android app has a reading mode. Hopefully it will arrive with the Firefox for iOS app as well.

Spotify uses Ogg Vorbis. Google Play uses MP3, which is kind of sad these days because Ogg Vorbis or Ogg Opus would both be much better choices.

NinjaFlex is a new type of material that some people are printing for rubber-like things, including little toy tires. Don't think it's ready for a car yet, but it's fun to play with.

Well, Hangouts on Safari is a Google plugin. I believe it generally uses VP8. Hardware doesn't matter, as what's needed is an encoder - and hardware encoders usually aren't good enough to use for real time chat. Encoding vi

This seems highly doubtful. They are both Google's code - one is just packaged as a plugin rather than built into Chrome.

Video encoding is expensive. You get to pick between more CPU usage or worse video quality.
