@ajsadauskas @JessTheUnstill @tomiahonen @fuchsiii obviously, that would've been a good standard for everyone, given that almost all non-#Gaming #Apps these days are #WebApps and at that point we'd not have 100+ MB #bloatware that essentially just loads a #Website and can't even cache shit!

Personally I believe the @europarl_en & @EUCommission could do that and establish as well as enforce an #EC #norm, just as they did with #USBc, #CCS2 and #GDPR!

#Android needs to be better as in being more than just the "lesser evil" compared to iOS!

Modern #TechStack|s are convenient but they also make #developers lazy and result in the #enfattening of #Software and #Games.

Nowadays we have shitty #WebApps that eat up 100+MB just for a #WebView and which are instantly useless once they don't have a high-speed, low latency internet connection!

  • People like #GraceHopper and #MargaretHamilton propably wouldn't even be mad, but just disappointed, knowing how a modern #IDE eats more computing power than the entire human race had at their career peaks...

And don't even get me started on all the #WastefulComputing aka. "#AI" #bs and #Shitcoin - #Scams!

Infosec.SpaceKevin Karhan :verified: (@kkarhan@infosec.space)@sekka@shark.community But one of the best tracks - abeit #Blues, not #Chill or #Jazz - is Blue Mary Blues Real Bout - Fatal Fury Special (Neo Geo CD Version) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3XTuBZiC4w https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=-3XTuBZiC4w Hard to believe they were able to get this done with a 135 kbit/s CD-ROM drive and 2 MB of cache! #music #mukke #mood #KingOfFighters #OST #GameMusic #Soundtrack #NeoGeo #NeoGeoCD

‘The UK's Mobile Browsers and Cloud Gaming Market Investigation Reference (MIR) has published its final report. The conclusion is clear: #Apple’s “#WebKit restriction”, which forces all browsers on #iOS to use Apple’s engine, harms competition, stifles innovation and functionality, particularly for #WebApps.’ #CMA #DMU #DMCCA

@mook OFC I do differenciate between "#WebApps" and #Websites to the point that #AnimateJS et. al. are the de-facto successor to #Flash as #Adobe literally supported it for that reason.

  • Then again, I think these techniques should be delegated to their specific use-cases (noone expects browser game slites like #Miniclip to be #accessible!) instead.

For a lot of of cases, #JavaScript is mostly unnecessary fluff.

  • Espechally when said #JS is not doing stuff that adds value but instead just adds #bloat.

I find it espechally insulting when stuff like #Mastodon prevents people from even looking up a profile or post at all cuz that's static content at the time of loading it and there's no legitimate reason to just offer a "lite" UI that just displays an otherwise hidden by #CSS & #JS banner that says sth. like: "this is just a lite preview. Certain functionality will not work, like commenting, boosting or liking. Please use a 3rd party client or activate JavaScript and reload the page if you want to use that."

  • But I guess that's something Developers at Mastodon are unwilling to accept cuz they have a nonchalant attitude of thinking they are perfect #TechBros!

Large Language Models (LLMs) are being distributed across many devices and platforms. Having these models available on-device can help reduce the need for sending private data to cloud-hosted systems.

At the @w3c member meeting last month in #Hiroshima 🇯🇵, Chunhui Mo (Huawei) explored what it would take to expose these LLMs to #WebApps through a Web #API and the advantages it could bring in terms of #privacy, #security and #performance.
