People that wouldn't buy it, aren't customers :)

He's not wrong, but needs to clean own house a bit.

And Javascript free web...

IMO, we need a RSS optimized browser that would also block Javascript before user interaction (or even more).


How would "RSS optimized" work in the context of a browser?

Reacting somehow to user input, even if not perfect, is more important for me... That's why we have HW cursors, and frame interpolation in games, etc...

HW cursor is an implementation detail, and are used by basically every wayland implementation.

And reacting is one thing, big black rectangles blinking on screen is another.


Once upon a time (maybe even before pthreads) I made an automatic version of this using SIGALARM for profiling.

I made a wrapper (using LD_PRELOAD) around XSelectInput that would trigger the signal 0.1 seconds after a keyboard/mouse (or other event) was received... Then it would dump stack traces every 0.1 seconds where "slow" UI code was being executed (before next call to XSelectInput).


Not Cyrillic?

Yeah, I remember switching from OS/2 to Linux when OS/2 was more or less abandoned.

Same here... I do not wish for a laptop with >65W USB-C power requirements.

I think he meant Error Correcting Code (just this, not this "or" ECCrypto)


Maybe it should use MAP_NORESERVE ?


I expect it does already, but I don’t think it would help here:

> In mode 2 the MAP_NORESERVE flag is ignored.

Hmm, we need setting 3 (more like 1.5) then.
