Ska nästa Amiga vara en 5000-kärnig superdator vid namn A5000 eller ska nästa maskin kanske vara byggd på IBMs kommende processor Power9? Jag tror faktiskt att den slutgiltiga Amiga 5000 "maskinen" marknaden kommer att få ta emot till syvende och sist (or ultimately) kommer vara en äkta kvantdator :-)

Amiga DevCon 2016 (exact date is October 6 to 9) in Sacramento, California, USA

AmiWest 2016 (October 7 to 9) is fast approaching and so is Amiga DevCon 2016 (October 6 to 7). The location is Sacramento, California, USA.

Please note, as always, the DevCon is a 100 % volunteer effort as is the AmiWest show itself.

A detailed tour of AmigaOS 4 with tutorials. We will be going through the Amiga Future Programming articles by Michael Christoph.

The anatomy of an Amiga disk device driver. We will be dissecting the p5020sata.device which is a SATA device driver used in the upcoming AmigaOne X5000. This isn’t just any custom made driver. It is melding between Linux libata and the traditional AmigaOS trackdisk device drivers.

Hans de Ruiter will be presenting his tutorials on Warp3D Nova. For anyone that wants to program for Warp3D Nova be sure to obtain/borrow/steal a card for the DevCon. See the Warp3D Nova press release for assistance on choosing a card.

Some information about the DevCon from the AmigaOS Documentation Wiki...

And actually so much more :-)

Blender version 248.6 released to AmigaOS + Så fungerar Apples skatteupplägg och så mycket betalar företaget egentligen + Sverige vill undersöka Apples vinst i EU

Blender version 248.6 released to AmigaOS

Welcome to Blender For AmigaOS 4.1

More information on blender for AmigaOS can be found here:

http://www.broad.ology.org.uk/amiga/blender/

More information on blender in general can be found here:

http://www.blender.org/

248.6 (September 2016 Update)

o When rendering videos from the sequencer, the audio would not reset
    to the start of the section being rendered, but continued on from the
    last section played, FIXED
o Some types of audio file did not play as Audio(HD) (notably WAV files)
    as the codec did not set the channel_layout for them, now set to
    AV_CH_LAYOUT_STEREO or AV_CH_LAYOUT_MONO for 2 and 1 channels when
    not explicitly set by the codec.
o The JPEG2000 import code took the wrong channel for the alpha part
    (original bug)

248.5 (June 2016 Update)

o Update libbffmpeg.so to the latest stable version off ffmpeg
    Based on the 3.0.2 release this adds support for decoding many more codecs,
    including AAC based audio formats.

    libffmpeg.so has also been built with large file support.
o Resdesigned the sequencer audio to enable it to work with ffmpeg 3.0.2
o Reqworked writeffmpeg.c
o SDL Audio based playback will now reinitialise when changing mixrates
between
    44.1 and 48. When scrubbing, update is immediate, when playing audio in the
    sequencer, playback must be paused and restarted for the mixrate chnage to
take
    effect.

248.4 (August 2013 Update)

o Added support for loading 32 bit ILBM images, (older ilbm formats were
allready
    supported)
o Fixed handling of close screen, when a visitor window is using the screen at
    program exit

FURTHER CHANGES: (June 2011 Update)

o blender no longer scan the contents of $PATH when trying to identify the
    path to the executable. This would cause annoying insert volume requesters
    if blender was executed like appdir:bldyn or even just foo:bldyn
o A further fix to crashes in low resources sitations. If the blender render
    window cannot open then blender would crash, as it did no checks for a
succesful
    open. It now contnues to render silently without a render display window.
o rendering the "stamp" could cause a crash due a unititialised interface
o Added a Amiga style version string. Version 248.3 To indicate
    blender version 2.48 amiga revision 3

CHANGES: (May 2010 update)

o blender could crash in the GHOST_Window destructor if
    some resources hadn't been allocated. (FIXED)
o Render Window Timer process now has ameaningful name
o Render Window Timer process now only uses 32Kb stack
o Absoulte paths were treating as relative on the command line
o Fixed a problem with loading from a library with a relative windows path
o Blender now sets it public screen as a public screen ...
o The animation player now starts on the same public screen as the main
    blender program.
o The direction of the mouse wheel was reversed. NB If you liked the behaviour
    of the mousewheel zoom in the 3D view, you can restore it by selecting
    Invert Zoom, in the user prefs panel, "Views & Controls" tab.
o Fixed bug with relative paths, files in the same directory could not be
    loaded correctly due to an extra '/' added during the path conversion
process.
o blender no longer attempts to find libtiff.so on a unix style serach path
o removed extraneous debug output
o ffmpeg compiled as a seperate shared object, altivec build of libbffmpeg.so
included

REQUIREMENTS:

AmigaOS 4.1 Update 1 or above. Update 2 or above recomended.
MiniGL 2.2 or above (2.2. should be provided with AmigaOS 4.1 Update 1)
2.4 is now recomended, but not required.

INSTALLATION

Copy contents to the destination of your choice.
If you have an altivec enabled processor then rename libbffmpeg.so_altivec to
libbffmpeg.so
replacing the non altivec default.

DEBUG OUTPUT TO CON:

This archive might be considered a 'very advanced beta' as such I have included
the
nonstripped version of the main exectable 'bldyn'. Also some extra "junk" is
printed to
the console. This is not too much more than the usual amount and should help
tracking
down any issues. If you wish to ingnore it >NIL: but beware some python scripts
require
console output.

USAGE

The main blender exectable is named 'bldyn' a example start script named
'blender'
with an associated icon (using the official blender logo) is provided. Blender
has a generous stack cookie set so you shouldn't need to set the stack.
Please eidt the startup script to suit your needs. If you need to find the
screen mode ID
then start blender from the command line like so

bldyn -M

then choose the screen mode you like. The ID will printed to the console before
opening
and you can then add to the script with

bldyn -MM<id>

Further tip if you run blender from it's own screen (with -MM as above) try the
-W
option as well to gain maximum workspace (borderless main window).

Start either from shell or by clicking on the start scripts icon in the
workbench
, please don't start bldyn itself from the workbench as this is not fully
supported.

do bldyn --help   for more info on command line options

Amiga specific

o Command line Options

    -M start blender on own screen, with mode requester
    -MM<screenmode> starts blender on own scren with specified screen mode
    -MN<screename> starts blender on named screen (must be open or defined in
sreens prefs)
        With the above two oprion there must be no space between option and args

    -G enable graphics.library based workarround for glDrawPixel bug on some
graphics cards
        Only supports RGBA bits ATM, but does supports scaling. It handles alpha
blending but very crudely
        so that icons etc look a bit more contrasty than the blender standard
(better than invisible though :-)

o Experimental Arexx Port PORTNAME "BLENDER.1"
    This version of blender has an ARExx Port, with a limited but powerful
command set
    The main power comes being asbe to call python scripts via the ARexx port,
giving
    more options for automation integration etc.

    LOADBLEND "FORCE/S,FILE"

        Load blender project from specified file. FORCE prevents the requestsr
in
        The Blender GUI.

    SAVEBLEND "FILENAME/K,FORCE/S"

        Save blender project to current file. FILENAME specifies a new filename
and FORCE
        prevents the overwrite requester.

    QUIT "FORCE/S"

        Stops whatever blender is doing and quits.

    STOP

        Stops what ever blender is doing. Equivalent to pressing the ESC key.
Stops
        Rendering, anim display, etc.

    RUNPYTHON "FILE/K,VAR/K,SCRIPT,DEBUG/S"

        Run a python script in the blender interpreter.

        The default is to run a script passed in a string. As readargs is used
to parse
        the ARexx commands this string must be escaped AmigaDOS style

        eg "import Blender*Nprint dir(Blender)" where *N is a newline etc **
must be used
        for *

        FILE run python script from specified filename instead. No escaping
required here

        VAR specify a python variable to be returned to ARexx as the RESULT

        eg 'RUNPYTHON VAR="foo" "foo = 3 ** 4"'

        returns 12 in result

        The variable will be converted to an Arexx string so must be of a
suiatable type.

    TOFRONT SCREEN/S"

        Move the blender window to the front. SCREEN specifies move the screen
instead.

    TOBACK SCREEN/S"

        Opposite of above.

o File handling and paths

    This version of blender uses AmigaDOS paths, throughout. However there are
still
    a few quirks. For instance to get a list of drives you need to type the dir
"/" in
    the blender filerequester

    Blender should now handle non AmigaDOS paths in loaded blend files. And will
correctly
    resulting mixed paths so long as the unix / windows bit is normalised (ie no
repeated
    slashes etc.) and obviously the paths must be relative.
    This is not as exhaustively tested so if you find a blend file that can't
load properly
    becauase of paths let me know.

    When saving a blend file it will only be "portabale" to another blender on
another OS if
    all files that blender needs are in the same or subdirectories of the same
directory as
    blender file.

    Plugins scripts etc can be found in PROGDIR:.blend

Have fun!

Så fungerar Apples skatteupplägg och så mycket betalar företaget egentligen

Efter en tre år lång utredning i företagets skatteavtal med Irland som först inrättades på 1980-talet föll domen i förra veckan. Apple ska betala 13 miljarder euro – 123 miljarder kronor – i kvarskatt till Irland.

Både Apple och irländska staten kommer överklaga beslutet, och amerikanska myndigheter vill också lägga sig i fallet. Varför välkomnar Irland inte nya skattemiljarder? Hela historien är rätt förvirrande och frågorna är många.

LINK | SOURCE

Sverige vill undersöka Apples vinst i EU

För att göra en undersökning har Sverige begärt mer information från EU-kommissionen om beslutet att Apple måste betala tillbaka 13 miljarder euro i kvarskatt till Irland.

Det sade finansminister Magdalena Andersson till Nyhetsbyrån Direkt efter ekofinmötet på lördagen.När konkurrenskommissionär Margrethe Vestager tillkännagav Apple-beslutet den 30 augusti sade hon att andra EU-länder kan ha rätt till delar av de 13 miljarderna.

Frankrike, Italien, Spanien och Österrike har visat intresse för att undersöka om Apple borde ha betalat skatt på en del av vinsten hos dem.

– Jag tror att det skulle vara väldigt bra om vi kan få mer information från kommissionen om detta, sade finansminister Magdalena Andersson.

LINK | SOURCE

/// SENASTE NYTT /// UPDATERING 160916

EU-kommissionens ordförande Jean-Paul Juncker tillbakavisar på ett G20-möte bestämt att beslutet skulle rikta sig mot USA.

– Det vore absurt att välja ut detta område för statsbeskattning för att angripa USA. Vi tillämpar regelverken, vi baserar våra beslut på fakta och lagstiftning, säger han.

Nej, det är inte bara EU som jagar skatteintäkter. Nu ser även de amerikanska skattemyndigheterna över kryphålen för att jättar som Apple inte ska komma undan för billigt på hemmaplan.

Bara några veckor efter att Apple åkt på skattesmällen på 123 miljarder kronor i EU meddelar den amerikanska skattemyndigheten att skärpa restriktionerna när det gäller skattelättnader för företag som beskattas utomlands, rapporterar Reuters.

– Vi stänger ytterligare ett kryphål som bidrar till erosionen av vår skattebas, säger en talesman för skattemyndigheten i ett uttalande.

EU:s beslut har mött stark kritik i USA och den amerikanska finansministern Jack Lew har uttryckt oro för att det kan underminera den amerikanska skattebasen.

October -15

A-EON Technology is pleased unveil the A.L.I.C.E. prototype at AmiWest 2015. A.L.I.C.E. is an x86 laptop that boots straight into the AmiKit Classic Amiga environment.

A.L.I.C.E. utilizes ordinary PC Laptop hardware to achieve extraordinary results. A truly immersive "Classic" experience has been created in a modern portable package by leveraging commodity hardware and existing emulation solutions. The core of A.L.I.C.E. is Amiga Forever and the freely available AmiKit software environment running on top of Linux. The Linux environment is completely hidden, but easily accessed if desired.

A.L.I.C.E. also includes a "Rabbit Hole" feature which integrates both Windows and Linux applications into the AmiKit environment. Amiga document and media files now open up in Libre Office, MPlayer, Firefox, etc. In fact any application that can be installed under Linux can be run from the AmiKit workbench. A.L.I.C.E. also provides a platform to easily access AMIStore and all of the upcoming software releases planned for Classic Amiga users. Exclusive add-on features are also planned that will only be available to A.L.I.C.E. users.

Jan Zahurancík, the developer of AmiKit said, "I have been dreaming about a portable Amiga computer ever since my real Amiga desktop could not keep up with my travel plans anymore. The A.L.I.C.E. laptop is the dream come true. Actually, the reality is more beautiful and more feature rich than the dream itself!"

Trevor Dickinson added, "I've always been a big fan of Amiga Forever and the AmiKit distribution but running an Amiga on top of Windows always felt a little clumsy to me. Several years ago I came up with the A.L.I.C.E. concept for a Classic Laptop but it has taken the combined skills and talent of the A.L.I.C.E. team to make the idea a reality. Amazing-ly, not only is A.L.I.C.E. portable it also delivers a lightning fast Classic experience."

In addition to AmiKit, A.L.I.C.E. Can also boot into standard Linux and Windows environments and can support AmigaOS 4 Classic if the pre-requisite PicassoIV and PowerPC ROMS images are supplied.

The A.L.I.C.E. Team includes Jan Zahurancík (AmiKit), Ken Lester, Toni Wilen, Rex Schilasky, Kevin Saunders, Michael Battilana (Cloanto) and Pat Wall & Trevor Dickinson (A-EON) http://www.a-eon.com

The ultimate Classic & Next-Generation AmigaOS file viewer
A-EON Technology Ltd is pleased announce the imminent release of MultiViewer and MultiViewerNG, its advanced file viewer utility for Classic and Next-Generation AmigaOS systems.

As part of our ongoing commitment to developing quality software content for Classic and Next-Generation AmigaOS systems we contracted freelance AmigaOS developer Andy Broad and set him the challenge of creating the ultimate AmigaOS file viewer utility. We gave him outline specifications and the freedom to build the programme from the ground-up. Our only stipulation were that the software must integrate with our other A-EON Technology applications such as Personal Paint & ImageFX and to make sure that, wherever possible, the Classic version had most of the features of Next-Generation version.

We are please to report that Andy has exceeded all of our expectations and the result is MultiViewer a flexible application for viewing any type of file supported by the datatypes system. Two versions are being released: MultiViewer for the Classic AmigaOS and MultiViewerNG for the latest AmigaOS 4.1 systems.

Both of these programs provide the AmigaOS with many additional features, such as a tool bar, image scaling, slideshow mode together with file and image editing hotlinks to programs such as NotePad ,Personal Paint, etc. Both versions of MultiViewer may be run from the Workbench or from the shell. The programs behaviour is controlled by a range of options which may be defined as Tooltypes or command line switches. Default settings are loaded from the tooltypes in the main programs icon. A powerful ARexx interface and Scripting menu provides even more options. The default settings can be modified by the tooltypes in the projects icon or the switches and options provided on the command line. Additional tooltypes allow the defining of external editors and scripts which may be executed from a custom script menu. Once MultiViewer is running, additional features may be controlled via the tool bar, menu and keyboard shortcuts and multiple files. Full Ringhio support is also included and the NG version also includes multiple Tabs and the ability to view AMIStore screenshots.

We asked Andy to comment on his six months MultiViewer development effort. "It's been an interesting challenge exploring both the potential and limitations of the datatypes system in order to bring the original concept of MultiView up to date in MultiViewer. An additional challenge was exploiting the significant advances in the AmigaOS 4 Reaction GUI system whilst providing as much functionality in the relatively limited 3.X version as possible."

MultiViewer and MultiViewerNG will be available shortly from AMIStore and similar.

MultiViewer to the future
