Avocado vs ReARM

Avocado is a free, open-source PlayStation 1 emulator for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android. It can load files including .cue, .bin, .img, .chd, .ecm, .exe, .psexe, .psf, and .minipsf by drag and drop. Listed save tools include save states, quick save and load, and rewinding by one second. It supports digital controllers, DualShock, and mouse input, with up to two controllers and no multitap. Audio support includes XA-ADPCM and Red Book, and graphics use OpenGL hardware rendering. The project lists support for Anti-Modchip and LibCrypt protected games; PAL LibCrypt games need additional .SBI or .LSD subchannel information. A BIOS from a real console is required and must be placed in the data/bios directory; BIOS selection is prompted on first run. The project is in early development, so games may not start or may crash soon after. It is single-threaded, and audio synchronized to NTSC 60 Hz can stutter in PAL games.

ReARM is a release governance platform for organizing software composition, security findings, approvals, and evidence around what ships. It versions SBOMs and XBOMs by product, component, and release, with dependency comparisons across versions and search across a portfolio. Releases can retain HBOMs, VEX, VDR, BOV, SARIF, signatures, attestations, and build metadata for 10+ years. Reliza BEAR adds supplier, copyright, and license metadata to SBOMs. ReARM gathers vulnerabilities, weaknesses, policy violations, and license violations from Dependency-Track and other tools for triage and audit. Release policies can check releases automatically and support manual or automated approvals, recording approver identity, timestamp, and an evidence snapshot in an immutable audit trail. It connects with tools including GitHub Actions, GitLab, Azure DevOps, Jenkins, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Sentinel, and Dependency-Track. ReARM Community Edition is self-hosted under AGPL 3.0 and can store and version BOMs without Dependency-Track; vulnerability scanning and policy findings require Dependency-Track or imported VDR files. External deployments require TLS. A free plan is available; paid plans start at $195/mo, and a 60-day trial is listed.
