  • I believe the ones made by Behar Bros are usually the recommended ones. They have a few different models, each with different features (like a couple have a scanline generator built-in and/or SCART output), so it’s up to you to decide exactly what works best for your setup.

    Just as a disclaimer, I don’t actually have any of their products, but it’s definitely what I would buy if I weren’t being cheap and just using the low quality cable that I already have.








  • You should look into Rockbox. It’s an open source alternative firmware for a variety of portable media players that adds features such as support for more file formats (and it runs Doom). As for which supported players I’d recommend then maybe a flash modded iPod or an AIGO Eros Q or K (also sold as the HIFI WALKER H2, Surfans F20, or AGPTek H3).





  • Are you referring to a drawing tablet? If so, then a good number of ones from the better known brands are supported by the kernel by default. Your safest bet though is Wacom. Wacom is definitely the best supported brand, but it tends to be more expensive than other brands (such as XP-pen and Huion). Non-Wacom branded tablets may require a little bit more initial configuration, like adding a udev rule (I had to do that for my Huion Inspiroy Ink).






  • Odds are that the pilots themselves didn’t see him and would have learned about the situation from air traffic control. It was late at night, there’s a limited range of sight from a cockpit, and at least one of the pilots is going to be paying more attention to the pre-flight checklists than their surroundings. Additionally, even if they shutdown the engines it would still take time for them to fully stop. As for the footage being cut off, it’s probably because that portion hasn’t been (and probably won’t ever be) released to the public. Ultimately, you’re going to have to wait for the NTSB’s report for more details.
