What was the point of this comment? Yeah this is pretty much how I use my computer. I use netsurf because I can use it in the framebuffer. I use mg for text editing and file browsing (using dired), chat using ircii, and email with elm. I don't really do much that can't be done without a GUI, so I rarely use X for anything other than forwarding something from my main computer over ssh
- anthk 4mo agoPlaying videos in underpowered machines vía streamlink/yt-dlp. Tons of people under HN might know yt-dlp, but not streamlink. About GUI's and the like, mpv has both SDL and KMS output, and both can render to the framebuffer. Ditto with mplayer and fbdev2.
- mghackerlady 3mo agoYeah, I'd probably use those if I had much use for them. Like I said, for any media consumption I have my PS vita and my work rarely requires me to do something with multimedia content while I'm on the go
