I'm cannot determine if the HEVC hardware decoding is full 10bit or only 8bit. A lot of SDR content is encoded in 10 bit for the space savings (or so I've read).
According to the response I've gotten so far, it will not support HDR or 10 bit. :-( However, the vast majority of SDR content is 8 bit. The few exceptions are mostly a few pirate groups who mostly encode anime.
Edit: this is apparently now in doubt.
The addition of gigabit ethernet and USB 3.0 means that a Pi no longer feels like a bottleneck in one’s home network. I know that the Pi was invented as an educational product, but thanks to the Linux distribution OSMC it is commonly used as a media center for playing films, music, TV, etc. I have had gigabit internet for a few years now, and every day on average, I torrent a Blu-Ray image onto my main computer. Howe…
The model 3B+ already had this though.

Depends on what you are doing.
Local golang work with docker but mostly as a dumb terminal interfacing with a remote k8s cluster and using the web as a reference.
(I'm new to all this, also unclear on the "dumb terminal interfacing" scenario... is that specific to using Kubernetes?)
Does anybody know if the ethernet controller supports PXE boot?

1) They make a low cost computer where they've put significant work into making it more open software wise. Their revenue stream is through the sale of their hardware, why do they need to allow people to make clones? 2) Maybe it's to do with the terms in which they get the camera module? I don't know but I don't see them selling the camera as interoperable. Your comment just seems to exemplify the phrase: "No good de…
Other SBC makers don't have an issue offering full schematics, yet, due to their smaller size, have relatively more to lose from being cloned. Moreover, I hope nobody believes that a lack of full schematics is going to stop people from making clones. Schematics can be reversed with not too much effort. Due to their large audience and brand recognition, rpi actually has less to fear from clones than smaller SBC vendor…

You can buy a pretty powerful full computer (networking, video, RAM, etc) that fits on a tiny card for $35. That makes it possible to build all sorts of fun things on next to zero budget - everything from robots to video game emulation systems and tv streaming boxes. The previous 3 versions were already wildly popular, but there were starting to show their age and to be significantly outperformed by Nvidia's Jetson N…
I always feel like I'm missing something. I don't have a single idea where something like this could be useful. Maybe because I don't care about "fun" projects and live a quit minimalistic live style? I must don't have (small) problems with no solutions. Then again, I've also never had an idea for an interesting software side project.
