Infinity:Game Boy Color RPG by TI community members release!
Some of you old timers will probably remember this project. Infinity was a Game Boy Color RPG that was created by former TI community members from around 1999-2001. The game never saw a realease as the Game Boy Advance was coming out soon. An incomplete build was released some years back. It appears that the project has been revived and is getting an official cartridge and digital release. Many of the original programmers have even been recruited to help finish it. Here's the kickstarter page: h...

What headphones/earphones do you own?
Ditto to the title.I have a pair of V-Moda Crossfade LP2(Over-ear) headphones. The sound is great and the durability is on a whole other level(I feel like it can stop a bullet, but I won't test it). And the price was amazing($130)!

Hello again!About a year ago we had a topic about Waifu2x in real time. Now I am wondering if someone is interested in something that is probably way easier. And this will be good for those who likes the look of Waifu2x. These images are made from Retroarch shaders in real time then extra filtered with Photoshops Oil Paint filter. So I wonder if someone has the code for the oil paint filter or could make it? It would then be quite easy to port to Retroarch. ...

Looks cool, but look at that price tag!$999 for 3gb of ram and 64 gb of storage$1,149 for 3gb of ram and 256gb of storageIn comparison, a OnePlus 5 with 8 gb of ram and 128gb of storage is only $539.Yeah, maybe you want that cool screen or Face ID or Animojis, but even then, is it worth 1k? Especially when smartphones half the cost(and even less) can do the job of a smartphone perfectly?

Android-x86 - My experience with it so far
Android-x86 is a project that intended to port Android to the intel/amd x86/amd64 architecture. (most android devices are using ARM)Before even Android-x86, Google had released an Android emulator that's actually running x86 binaries for performance reasons.However, the emulator was pretty slow at the time and it did not support 3D hardware acceleration, only a software renderer.Originally, Android-x86 only targeted a few select hardware like the EeePC but over time, as Android became more stand...

It was pretty much the ancestor of Internet in Quebec province. It was discontinued in 2000 and the service remained online until 2006.

Is there anything that has been done or in development?If there isn't, m idea would be there being a video to image converter, then a resolution converter and then making a program that would link them together (Non-Calc), and then a program on the calc to run it. Make it 30 fps or more if the calc can handle it. I've seen the TI-84 Plus version on Cemetech.Thanks for reading and/or helping!

Windows 10
So I upgraded to Windows 10 yesterday. It said the system requirements are identical as Vista so I figured I would be fine, since my PC could run Windows 7 more than well. After several hours the upgrade was done. To my surprise, Starcraft: Brood War actually ran on Windows 10, sort-of, and it did not have the color bug from Windows 7 that caused colors to look funny. Of course Battle.net no longer works and I get memory violation errors upon exiting, but I guess there are fixes for that anyway....
