Open-source ReBarUEFI driver adds Resizable BAR support to unsupported motherboards

ReBarUEFI is a UEFI DXE driver that can be injected into a system's firmware to enable Resizable BAR on boards that don't officially support the feature. It works by patching the PCI resource allocation process during boot and is paired with a companion tool, ReBarState, to set the BAR size, with a separate project called NvStrapsReBar covering older NVIDIA Turing GPUs.

New GW-BASIC-compatible interpreter runs directly on UEFI firmware

A developer released Thoreau BASIC, an interpreter compatible with GW-BASIC that can boot directly on bare-metal UEFI machines, with a Windows version also available. It supports classic BASIC constructs like DEF FN, GOSUB, error trapping, and graphics commands such as PSET, LINE, CIRCLE, and PAINT, working at native framebuffer resolution with 16-color EGA or 24-bit RGB.
