Anyone know how to get the network working? ping/wget don't work. But seriously, this is pretty flippin sweet!
Implement emulation of a network card... ;) The tech notes page states that "there is no network emulation at this point".
Boot a linux kernel right inside your browser.

You can't - Javascript can't generate arbitrary network traffic like that. You'll have to wait for someone to write a driver for /dev/json, I guess. ;)

#13My favorite bit: # cat /proc/cpuinfo ... f00f bug: yes # Hah! 20 bogomips by the way, at least on Chrome on a MacBook Pro. I sense a whole new era of browser performance testing..
Okay, I take that back. My favorite part comes from the tech notes, when he lists all the stuff he added:
[... and] my unfinished but usable emacs clone QEmacs.
?!? I am wasting my life in comparison to this super-hacker.

Further update: qemacs works.
Unfortunately, M-x spook does not, so he clearly still has some work to do for feature completeness.

#15Neat. You can mount sysfs like so:
# mkdir /sys; mount -t sysfs /sys /sys
Makes sense to me. The MVP here is cpu emulation.

#16After FFmpeg (used in all your TVs and gadgets, very likely), QEmu (used also by Xen and VBox and other), tcc and his IOCC entries, the DVB-T emission with an ATI card, Fabrice comes, once again with something crazy...
He is really impressive...

Yeah. That would be a whole interesting can of worms. Would need PCI/USB/whatever bus your ethernet card was on. Plus emulation of the selected ethernet card itself.
Loopback (which is present) is so much simpler.

#18Didn't know about this guy! Unbelievable track record of consistently releasing groundbreaking software. Oh, and the x86 js emulator is cool too! made my day!

#19~ # tcc -o hello hello.c
~ # ./hello
Hello World
That is just too impressive for me to process.

Any Macarthur Grant folks floating around here? Take note! That's an impressive resume.
