Not an airplane, but I have a few HP calculators (50G, 12C, 15C) that run an emulator for a chip that is no longer produced because nobody wants to port the software. They still make the 12C. I wouldn't trust them to port it without in

It could be used as a range extender, though not a very good one. Probably a better use case would be connecting older devices like the Nintendo DS that don't support WPA2 to your network without forcing all of your other devices onto

I don't know exactly what you mean by "quality" but there are certainly still a few non-smart models around, i.e. Sceptre U515CV-U for a $200 50" 4K model. Or there are a couple of very large displays available that are

The report is from Zillow, it's easy enough to see the current inventory number. I just searched and it's at 1,849 in the city limits.

They already have exactly that, minus the unnecessary blockchain bit. It's called Transparency. The problem is that manufacturers need to opt into it and there is no way as a consumer to tell on a product listing whether or not the pro

The "sometimes" includes the one Microsoft ships by default with Windows. It is ridiculous how much faster random file access becomes when disabling Defender's real time protection feature.

No, you can install software outside the store. Either native ARM (though there isn't much available) or emulated x86 code. It does default to "S mode" which prevents installing apps from outside the store but it's just

It basically amounts to cranking up the error correction and seeing how much you can get away with changing before it stops reading correctly.

The most likely culprit for display issues on these old calculators in my experience is the ribbon cables. You can take a multimeter and check the resistance of each connection, if any of them read too high you can solder a thin wire in par

DTEN is the company actually making it and their site lists some specs. 1080p screen, runs "DTEN OS" which I assume is some sort of custom Linux distro, 100mbps ethernet, AC wifi, has an HDMI input, weighs 14lb.

They all support 4KiB, 16KiB, and 1MiB. It's required by the ARM spec, obviously with the exception of CPUs that don't have an MMU. Support for 16MiB pages is optional.

It's also possible to fit the fan included with the 3400G into the deskmini with slight modification (removing the plastic shroud from the top, it's just clipped on).

The Graviton chips are just ARM reference designs with a few tiny modifications, very little R&D required. The majority of the NRE costs were probably the 7nm tapeout which is supposedly in the 10s of millions dollar range. Anandtech r

They indicate plans to sell hardware on Crowdsupply which is based in the US. Presumably this is going to be FPGA-based which brings up all the fun questions of how ITAR applies to software. Would adding a speed restriction in their VHDL

It's true that the FPGA vendors are very secretive, often to the point of requiring NDAs for access to datasheets and toolchains. There is open source tooling for some FPGAs and a fairly small but very helpful community around it. Yosy

There are some Android-based e-ink readers (including some of the Nook models and various Chinese brands) that have modern-ish browsers, you can make a page and wrap it in a webview or write a normal Android app.
