    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.

    SwiftShader

    SwiftShader

    SwiftShader is a high-performance CPU-based implementation

    SwiftShader is Google’s high-performance CPU-based implementation of the Vulkan 1.3 graphics API, designed to provide a hardware-independent rendering solution for 3D graphics. Unlike traditional GPU drivers, SwiftShader executes graphics commands entirely on the CPU, making it ideal for environments where dedicated graphics hardware is unavailable or unsuitable. It acts as a drop-in replacement for Vulkan drivers, allowing existing applications to run seamlessly by redirecting API calls through its software-based rendering engine. The project supports Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, and ChromeOS, offering broad cross-platform compatibility. SwiftShader’s design emphasizes both performance and compliance, enabling robust software rendering for testing, virtualization, and cloud-based graphics workloads.

    VSCodium

    VSCodium

    binary releases of VS Code without MS branding/telemetry/licensing

    Microsoft’s vscode source code is open source (MIT-licensed), but the product available for download (Visual Studio Code) is licensed under this not-FLOSS license and contains telemetry/tracking. The VSCodium project exists so that you don’t have to download+build from source. This project includes special build scripts that clone Microsoft’s vscode repo, run the build commands, and upload the resulting binaries for you to GitHub releases. These binaries are licensed under the MIT license. Telemetry is disabled. If you want to build from source yourself, head over to Microsoft’s vscode repo and follow their instructions. VSCodium exists to make it easier to get the latest version of MIT-licensed VSCode. Please note that some Visual Studio Code extensions have licenses that restrict their use to the official Visual Studio Code builds and therefore do not work with VSCodium.

    BinExport

    BinExport

    Export disassemblies into Protocol Buffers

    BinExport is a disassembly export plugin developed by Google as part of the BinDiff ecosystem, designed for reverse engineering and binary analysis. It works with popular disassemblers including IDA Pro, Binary Ninja, and Ghidra, enabling the export of disassembly data into a structured Protocol Buffer format. This exported data can then be used for binary comparison, diffing, and advanced analysis tasks through BinDiff or other compatible tools. BinExport captures detailed information such as instructions, functions, control flow graphs, and metadata, providing a machine-readable representation of a program’s disassembled structure. It supports multiple export formats, including binary, text, and statistics outputs, and can be used interactively or via scripting (IDC, IDAPython, or Ghidra’s headless mode). The project includes complete build instructions for Linux, macOS, and Windows, ensuring reproducibility across platforms.
