• Revisiting WASM for F#

  I would also say that IF blazor worked on a browser plugin like silverlight did, today that's not the case it is built on the webassembly standard which and it is being adopted in the browsers which means once it gets on the web, it is unlikely to ever go out again. Even if Microsoft themselves leave Blazor today, it can still work, the burden of creating a fork and keeping blazor alive will certainly be big but... - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• Seeking Advice on Product Positioning for new .NET-based SDK/Framework

  Under the Hood: Technically, XR# integrates Three.js, A-Frame.js, and the Microsoft .NET to WASM compiler (like in Blazor). It’s built on our decade-long experience with OpenSilver, a contemporary Silverlight alternative. Source: 8 months ago

• WASI: A New Kind of System Interface

  Nah, I appreciate the wonderfull work of those WebAssembly people that allowed me to have Java applets, Flash and Silverligh running again in the browser. https://leaningtech.com/cheerpj/ https://leaningtech.com/cheerpx-for-flash/ https://opensilver.net/ Thanks for making the revenge of plugins a reality. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• 20 Years of .NET

  Now there is a company making Silverlight work on top of WebAssembly. https://opensilver.net/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Prime Video Uses WebAssembly

  It will definitly be the new common, by killing Flash et all without comparable tooling, while at the same time offering WASM, it was only a matter of time until we had the revenge of plugins. Basically 10 years wasting time to come full circle. https://leaningtech.com/cheerpj https://leaningtech.com/cheerpx-for-flash/ https://opensilver.net/ All of the three major ones are now back, but it is ok, WASM is great! - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• For those who've recently switched from Windows to Mac, what's the one app you miss the most?

  Foobar2000. There is no macOS music player that comes close; QuodLibet almost hits the spot, but that's a very large "almost". Source: 11 months ago

• Girl with blow up costume really whips the llama's ass

  Putting WinAmp nostalgia aside, have you heard of https://foobar2000.org? Source: over 1 year ago

• This man thought opening a TXT file is fine, he thought wrong

  I would 100% agree if it weren't for the existence of the music player foobar2000. Both share similar design goals. But foobar takes it a step further by making the entire UI completely user customizable with a simple built in editor. All without sacrificing speed, compactness, or usability.
