This isn't WebVM specifically, but one example using WebContainers we've built is https://demo.graphweaver.com/ This runs a NodeJS server and frontend in your browser so you can se…

Yeah, it's all fun and games until you're at Macca's and someone says, "Oi, can you pass me a chippy?" and they get real confused when you go find a carpenter.

fast.com checks the speed to Netflix servers. So if they juice that, they also have to juice Netflix streaming speed unless they've figured out a clever way to fingerprint just fas…

I can't use another company's GPS system in my car, so in the market of, "Using GPS navigation / menus / etc in my 10 year old Mini's dashboard" there's no meaningful competitor. T…

This looks really interesting. I'm regularly building systems that are plugged into multiple SaaS things, and would love a way to make that easier. I'll give this a go with a toy p…

System Settings -> Accessibility -> Display -> Pointer There are options for pointer size, outline colour and fill colour. Go nuts.

That's obvious. It's called "x".

I'm 40 and I work from the office 5 days a week for roughly the same reasons. General expectation from the company is around 2 days a week in the office, but I prefer it, so I come…

He knew what we'd understand and how we'd interpret these laws when he wrote it that way and left the wording exactly like this anyway. If he really didn't want people having Eruvs…

Unfortunately whenever we test intercessory prayer we find that it doesn't work. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16569567/

In Australia we only have school busses for incredibly remote communities. Most kids just take public transport. Of course for that to work, you have to have a viable public transp…

In school I was taught, "You're so lucky to have been born here. We're the best country in the world at everything." I'm not exaggerating, and we were told to expect to be the best…

I'd say you lobby for preferential voting like we have here as the first step. You write numbers in boxes for your 1st choice, 2nd choice, etc until you're done. They put all the b…

I'm from the US, moved to Australia and am now a dual citizen. I think the reason for this here is because we have preferences in our voting, and we have compulsory voting. I can s…
