the ethernet chip seems to just be the 4 usb-port version instead of the 2 usb-port version.

Much better port layout. Glad to hear audio is improved. Not sure what projects needed more pins but not complaining. Wish USB/Ethernet didn't share a bus, but I never actually ran into that being an issue yet.

They are definitely throwing stuff against the wall to see what sticks. It's the developers in the room that will turn things android can now do to stuff people may actually want to do. Personally I prefer when google shows weak propos

Why compare it to a pi if the price is 2.5x the pi - its a different class of device. Hey check out this Radxa alternative that has a built-in FPGA, dual nic, and is even faster! http://www.crowdsupply.com/kosagi/novena

Looks cool, but why translate to native UI elements at run-time as opposed to compile-time? Does it help with debugging? Forgive my ignorance as I have not used Xamarin.

i) They can claim what they want, and even if there is no way it would hold up in court, can still discourage people from using what they do have the right to use. Does anyone know where we can lookup all the legal cases the Met has been in

Yep. There is a very strong cognitive dissonance within the museum, which has 2500 employees, many of whom have yet to understand the hypocracy. They believe they are serving the public by not sharing images, in a backwards sort of way.

They do limit the quality of images. If you want to see the highest resolution image, take any of the image urls and replace 'web-<WHATEVER>' with 'web-original'. This is a small step in showing they are trying to

I'm in for one (laptop version), but wondering just how close one could get off-the-shelf. If you had $1999 to build your own version of the novena, thats as portable/powerful/free as you can make it, what could you make? min

Barnes and Noble nook / Kindle paperwhite is ~$120. Those two manufacturers make way more than the expected $120 on content sales. I scoffed at the initial price too but it actually is competitive. Of course, the older Nook was $80, an

Yeah, and it gets even weirder when you start learning about representations of 3d art. Photos of non-flat art do renew that copyright right? But what precedent exists re: 3D scans of objects in a collection? We share what we can, which rig

Probably not easy to cast aluminum to look like crumpled paper. Probably takes as much time and effort as a week working on a web app.
