Are there any mobile browsers using something like librsvg, focused more on rasterising static SVGs than loading into a memory a full DOM? https://wiki.gnome.org/action/show/Projects/LibRsvg?action=s...

Google really needs to send 2 of these things to every paying Google Apps customer with 50+ users. They should also fix the VPN and support and, yes, add support for PPTP connections.

Does anybody know of anything similar for Javascript? (Either node or browser). I'm just getting into using Scala and will take another look at this when I need it.

Can somebody identify just exactly what the "security implications of allowing root access" are? Are we referring to unrestricted escalation with sudo by an unprivileged user/app? CyanogenMod has never allowed sudo without co

It feels like saying Bletchley Park just needed more diligent and loyal crib workers and they would have solved the Enigma. Without Turing and the Bombe where would we all be?

Have you considered working with local pizza shops or recruiting a "virtual" sales force to do that for you? Unlike Groupon it wouldn't be about big deals but simply more people calling the local indy than the big chain which

Sounds like an easy way for University to use an incentive to encourage more people into a degree path that might yield dividends for them, and move people away from majors that don't lead into employment.

I think this is a great question. The reasons given for graphics drivers not being open are quite reasonable and I will exclude that quality from that discussion. Many other devices are so basic that the driver is little more than a variati

Well first you're assuming that those that created the system consider known identity to be a misfeature, even beyond that necessary for payments. Trustable/trusted doesn't mean trustworthy in the sense of an individual citiz

The Mifi is the same thing as the baseband in your cell phone, and can even do SMS. Many of them are running Linux on the AP side now to support more advanced Wifi routing features. If you were really paranoid, you might consider the possib

There's also the possibility of reprogramming a PINMUX to move access from the AP to the BP on the same SoC for something like SPI. Essentially, most of the pins on the SoC are re-programmable to have different functions or connect to

"Airplane mode" is essentially and AT command sent to the baseband to disassociate and go to sleep, it doesn't disable the baseband CPU, DSP or anything else. You could argue that "off" is the same thing, for instan

It's not a perfect solution, the audio routing might be hardware with simple impedance detection of a plugged in headset, which the software could ignore and continue using the mic.

There's no way to access the audio ICs from I2C or SPI on the BP? You might also need access to the PMIC to turn on the amplifiers, but most designs I've seen have access ports from both BP and AP. (This was on Motorola devices, Q

In some devices the NFC transceiver is part of the battery, assuming it has it's own CPU and firmware it could be easily exploited to be trackable from relatively large distances. Other "near field" devices have, such as paym
