    TurboVNC

    TurboVNC

    High-speed, 3D-friendly, TightVNC-compatible remote desktop software

    TurboVNC is a high-performance, enterprise-quality version of VNC based on TightVNC, TigerVNC, and X.org. It contains a variant of Tight encoding that is tuned for maximum performance and compression with 3D applications (VirtualGL), video, and other image-intensive workloads. TurboVNC, in combination with VirtualGL, provides a complete solution for remotely displaying 3D applications with interactive performance. TurboVNC's high-speed encoding methods have been adopted by TigerVNC and libvncserver, and TurboVNC is also compatible with any other TightVNC derivative. TurboVNC forked from TightVNC in 2004 and still covers all of the TightVNC 1.3.x features, but TurboVNC contains numerous feature enhancements and bug fixes relative to TightVNC, and it compresses 3D and video workloads much better than TightVNC while using generally only 5-20% of the CPU time of the latter. Using non-default settings, TurboVNC can also be made to compress 2D workloads as "tightly" as TightVNC.

    AutoAP

    A script to find open Wi-Fi connections and the strongest signal

    AutoAP is a script that continuously scans for open Wi-Fi connections, tests them for validity, and connects to the strongest signal. If the connection is lost, the script scans again and finds the strongest valid signal again, and maintains a continuous connection to the internet in a mobile or portable environment. The script paremeters are highly configurable, including ability to configure secure connections. AutoAP is an add on to DD-WRT that allows routers to continuously scan for and connect to open (and predefined WEP) wireless networks. Ultimately the goal is to develop an easily deployable firmware that facilitates fast and easy mesh network creation. Typically, you would use this script on your router while in Repeater Mode, Client Mode, or Client-Bridged Mode.

    Autodesk Fusion 360 is a cloud-based 3D modeling, CAD, CAM, CAE, and PCB software platform for product design and manufacturing that offers an affordable, powerful alternative to other well-known solutions on the market.But the problem is that it usually only works on systems that have Windows or macOS installed as the operating system. I'm using a Linux distribution such as openSUSE Tumbleweed and needed a solution to this problem. And so, with this nice tool, we no longer need two operating systems for Fusion 360 if you or I want to create an awesome project in the future.

    Another rockchip Operating System

    Another rockchip Operating System. This OS came about from an initial fork of The Retro Arena to support a roms folder on a NTFS partition so that the management of roms could be done by simply putting you SD card into an appropriate card reader on a Windows 10 computer. Through various upgrades and tweaks overtime, it has diverged significantly from TheRA and it's time to rebrand this distro. With suggestions provided by community members, ArkOS was chosen.

    Streisand

    Streisand

    Streisand sets up a new server running your choice

    Streisand is a tool that automates the deployment of censorship-resistant VPN services on cloud servers. It was created to help users bypass internet censorship and surveillance by quickly setting up secure communication channels without needing deep system administration expertise. With just a cloud provider account and basic Unix command-line knowledge, Streisand can provision a server and configure multiple VPN and proxy protocols almost automatically. This includes OpenVPN, WireGuard, Shadowsocks, OpenConnect, and Tor bridges, often with optional add-ons like obfuscation or stunnel to resist throttling and detection. The result is a private website that hosts client software downloads and setup instructions for easy access. Streisand supports major cloud providers like AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Linode, DigitalOcean, and Rackspace, while also offering installation options for advanced users with their own servers.
