Nanos VS Virtual Windows 98

I am a bit confused, there are three sites: * https://nanos.org/ * https://nanovms.com/ * https://ops.city/ And I am not sure what "thing" I am using. Is there some disambiguation? I know is OPS is the orchestration CLI, but I am confused at the difference between Nanos and NanoVMs. What should I call the section of my README that deals with this tech? Currently gone with Nanos/OPS but I am confused. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

Forgot to mention this but https://nanos.org is also related with https://nanovms.com (to deploy unikernels) and ops.city (which handles the package distributions), so it's like a whole ecosystem. I wonder why Alpine linux won over this though? - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

I work with https://nanos.org && https://ops.city - we can run thousands of these on commodity hardware. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

Unik was just a build tool that utilized other projects like Rump, Mirage, IncludeOS, etc. It's now dead since Solo pivoted a very long time ago to service mesh/api gateways. The GoRump port they use was from us and then we realized we needed to code our own from the ground up for many reasons so we wrote https://nanos.org (runs as a go unikernel in GCP). - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

Https://nanos.org/ Seems to be a living concept still, just not in the mainstream. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

> As a thought experiment, we're almost there! We could technically have `win95.img + bochs86vm.wasm + autorun.inf + msword.exe` wrapped in a "browser evaluator" I looked into this and... Holy crap! We are there. Not for modern programs quite yet, sure, but this is amazing. You can use Windows 2000 from your browser. https://copy.sh/v86/?profile=windows2000. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

I think you are looking for Shadow. https://shadow.goose.icu Or just the whole kitchen sink. Why not? http://copy.sh/v86/?profile=windows98. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

It's great that someone is trying to preserve these operating systems. However the choice of limiting it to 1 user per OS at a time makes the museum/website unusable. I tried several times over the span of 20 minutes and couldn't get into a single VM. While it doesn't cover everything, there is no shortage of browser-based emulators that can run most of the software listed. Windows 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, 3.1... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

Yes—go to https://copy.sh/v86/ and click on the 9front link. A session will open in your browser. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
