What are some use cases for this?


The technology is extremely flexibile, off the top of my head:

* Education (Linux, Programming, Security, ...)

* Live docs for arbitrary languages and binary libraries

* Preservation of historical software and games

* Virtualization of legacy Windows enterprise apps.

* Dev environment for Web IDEs

Just a few examples, the list could go on for long


You want it to be 3D!! Loading this is a multiplayer social VR sandboxed WebXR environment would be so amazing one day! I wonder if it could all run off-thread in a Worker and one day maybe use webGPU to update textures async! I hope computers can be fun and care free like a game one day and AI companions will let people learn and do anything! Thanks for working to make this!


HN, please explain why everyone is so upset with having a time offset in the city/region/country next door.

In Germany, there are 16 states. Many of them have different laws, e.g. regarding store hours and so on. Neighboring countrys like Austria or Poland have even more conservative laws.

The difference between sunrise and sunset in Palermo and Oslo is almost 90 minutes twice a year.

There are tons of cultural differences between Europeans. In southern countries, people tend to stay up later in the evening and sleep longer in the morning than in northern countries (at least that is my impression from traveling).

In the continental United States, there are four time zones, none of which even pay much attention to state borders.

Still, everyone manages to live their lives, talk to people on the phone, commute from one place to the other.

So why are Europeans so afraid that the people they talk to might be an hour or two off?

lol


for the majority of people it should also be fine to walk (yes, walk!) from their appartment to the next bus/tram/subway station around the corner.


and I use it almost every day. It's great, thank you very much!

Sorry for the noise everyone, I found out how to do it:

Do not register an account only with an e-mail address of yours and then ruefully append your phone number later because you are denied any usefulness of the account otherwise.

Instead, choose to register by your phone number in the first place right away, and pretend to volunteer to be easily trackable throughout the entire internet.


I would, but what address should I use? I mean, I could just write to [email protected] or whatever, but I would be amazed if that would return anything.

They do not announce an official mail contact anywhere. Looks like they don't actually want to really get in contact with their (potential) users.


Sorry for sort of OT, but my post on Reddit has been removed, and I hope that Twitter people might read this here.
