Want to find some nails for the following features:

The uweb browser can implement any native functionality with [html5 enhancement](https://uwebzh.netlify.app/en/html5/). Anything worth to implement?

[Any urls as website](https://uwebzh.netlify.app/en/url2site/) (repository, cloud storage shared links or a single file as multi-page site), anything else to try?

piping between console and GUI.

I thought alacrity was faster. If not, I will still use st. But alacrity can still become a GUI terminal later and will have some usage for me.

I am the one with you. If you decide to add scrollbar later, please at least make it optional.

I am using firefox with pentadactyl, and the firefox is configured as a minimal terminal like st. Basically, firefox becomes my GUI terminal. But what I want is a much lighter weight GUI terminal than firefox.

I am using three terminals, st for regular use. mlterm for its image support (sixel). and firefox for heavy-GUI needs. Alacrity seems perfect to replace st now.

Thanks for good work.

Very impressive. Maybe it can be used in unikernel with freestanding applications.

Some Suggestion: do not focus on GUI at first, since it will not be usable soon as desktop OS anyway.

I could imagine that a barebone ExDos to manage multiple unikernel ExDOS virtual machines as web services is quite useful.

Any comments?

I am with you.

When visited with w3m I got spaces breaking words frequently. Is there any justification to use complex html to control intra-word spacing for a web page?

I agree.

I hope that FF keeps to be different from chrome. Otherwise why not use chrome directly.

I am using firefox because it is multi-threaded (vs. chrome's multi-process) and thus lighter. My version is still 28 since it has less dependencies than current one.

Be different, otherwise FF may die.

It seems that I am not the only one gotten hurt by standing all day long.

In my case, the knees are fine, the joint between my right thigh and body got hurt baddly.

So, do not stand a lot, do not sit all day long either.

Do drink water regularly, (kidney stones for sitting programmers) too much water will cause kidney problems too.

systemd seems bloated and could not be cleanly replaced.

I'm using arch linux, even if I removed systemd completely, all daemon-related packages would still install systemd configuration files.

I have bought 4 laptops with windows pre-installed. Immediately after getting them, I erased all windows and installed arch linux.

As I know, the pre-installed windows cost around $50, so the total cost of microsoft tax is $200 for me. The only thing MS brings to me is the trouble to erase them and install linux.

Since unikernel still needs to run in hypervisor, so I believe the performance is worse than docker.

Am I right?

I had both versions installed(arch linux). I wanted to remove one of them long time ago, but there are lots of dependencies on python2 in arch (gdb mercurial etc.).

python3 do break many of 3rd-party scripts I am using, so I make /bin/python symlinks to python2. Each python3 update will break these scripts and I needed to symlink python again. So, finally, I removed python3 completely.

These 3d-party python codes are well maintained, but the authors seems not to bother to port them to python3 if python2 is still available.

Questions for peer founders:

As a developer and solo founder, I just can not finish a serious project in one year. For example, it took me two years to get version 1 of torapp guilloche designer (www.torapp.info). We did not get consistent/significant customers and need a new product to survive.

To evaluate more ideas and to be familiar with respective areas took me another year easily (without deep knowledge in the area, how can you beat your competitors?).

So how can you guys roll out a product in 3 months? How can you quickly pivot? (pick up ideas and evaluate them quickly)

Cannot agree more. Besides $100 annually, a CA certificate is harder to manage (considering cloud hosting etc.), and it is not worth doing for many casual sites.

I predict that https only http/2 will be doomed.

No different opinion allowed? Please give me more down vote, I do not care in fact.

Why bother wasting effort on GUI?

GTK3 is good enough and QT seems more bloated and has more dependencies.

Anyway, I will use tcpdump.

Byebye, wireshark.

voted up the topic and let more people be aware of it to avoid traps.
