zubnix··on Linux Kernel Port to WebAssembly
Thats because it’s just the kernel without any user space applications yet
zubnix··on Linux Kernel Port to WebAssembly
How is this different compared to jslinux? Jslinux emulates hardware while the Linux WASM port uses the WASM runtime as a VM without any form of emulation.

zubnix··on Vint Cerf on mistakes he made in TCP/IP
Http 3.0 is UDP, ICA these days is also UDP.
zubnix··on Running GUI apps within Docker containers
another solution that allows both wayland and x11 applications accessible from the browser (disclaimer: I am the author, it’s also still very much under development) https://github.com/udevbe/greenfield
zubnix··on DaedalOS: Desktop Environment in the Browser
That’s what I am building, except both native and web apps work seamlessly together: https://www.greenfield.app/ https://github.com/udevbe/greenfield https://twitter.com/FriedChicken/status/1420671685485867014?...
zubnix··on Greenfield – The In-Browser Wayland Compositor
Not tested but it could although rather slowly as currently the proxy compositor does not expose OpenGL capabilities for doing zero copy application buffer passing. With enough time you could completely integrate it with steam though…
zubnix··on Greenfield – The In-Browser Wayland Compositor
Greenfield is a city in Massachusetts, United States. Just like Wayland.
zubnix··on Greenfield – The In-Browser Wayland Compositor
Absolutely, that’s why I am integrating it with kubernetes so each app is locked down and containerised while you as a user don’t even notice it.
zubnix··on Greenfield – The In-Browser Wayland Compositor
There used to be one for about half a year I believe, but I found 280 dollars a month (gpu cloud is crazy expensive) too costly for just a demo.

Not possible, webgl is sandboxed and doesn’t expose the required egl extension. It might be possible if you’d port it to deno and use some native code perhaps(?)

Author here. If you want to know a bit more about the history of greenfield, I’ve written a bit about it on twitter: https://mobile.twitter.com/FriedChicken/status/1420671685485...
zubnix··on Terraform 1.0
So much this. If you hate cloudformation, have a look at CDK, which allows you to programmatically define a stack in a language of your choice, instead of trying to use unreadable huge yaml to write code.

I really wish terraform will one day reach the same features and maturity as cloudformation.

zubnix··on A12 – Advancing Network Transparency on the Desktop
"externally funds secured." As a research project, or a potential commercial product?
zubnix··on React Native for Windows and Mac
Not sure what browser you're using. But here it's actually using webcomponents and CSS houdini to render all demos I tried. Nowhere did I see any canvas usage.
zubnix··on Jitsi Architecture – legacy desktop application (2011)
I was just about to comment on how using OSGi probably doubles your engineering effort (and cost!) quite substantially for very little benefit.

Source: I've developed OSGi applications professionally for nearly 9 years.

btw I <3 Jitsi Meet

zubnix··on Stop Infinite Scrolling
It stops at 1972. I thank my flywheel scroll button for that.
zubnix··on Show HN: MetalShell – Build GUIs for JVM Apps with HTML, CSS and JavaScript
How is this different (functionally) than say https://www.dukescript.com/ ?
