@p @dj @ins0mniak @lanodan @zaitcev I used a JavaOS JavaStation at a conference once, it had an embedded smartcard reader in it. You shoved in the card and it would open up your desktop just as you left it. when you were done you yanked out your card and went on your way pistolero likes this.pistolero repeated this. -

@feld @dj @p @ins0mniak @sun @zaitcev Feels kind of sad that closest we are to this is plugging smartphone into random USB hubs (yikes!) instead of like smartcard + whatever cloud thing. pistolero likes this. -

@p @dj @feld @ins0mniak @sun @zaitcev btw might want something like that added in the location block of your nginx config so that file saving dialogs get the proper name out:

In a way yeah, most people got internet connectivity in their pockets, but it's very unreliable internet so you need the protocols to cope with intermittent connectivity or basically use a bouncer/proxy/remote-session/…pistolero likes this. -

Oh, yeah, I used to do that. The only issue is that I ended up reappropriating an endpoint that I wanted to not use for hosting files but I keep using it because it keeps being convenient for that. The FSE stuff used to go through the /media/ endpoint and I decided to just shove it into that other one when I wrote the uploader, so I keep having to add stuff, like there wasn't any cache-control/expires/etc. until yesterday. New version deployed.

@lanodan @dj @feld @ins0mniak @sun @zaitcev Yeah; there's some of that built into Octopus. (Comes with latency/unreliability simulators, because 9P is pretty pipe-friendly.) -

@sun @dj@ak.parcero.casa @p @ins0mniak @lanodan @zaitcev Ah, didn't know that the Sun Rays had a predecessor. We had Sun Rays in our offices , including the meeting rooms. So instead of lugging around laptops, you'd just pull out your card, and the person presenting in the meeting would put their card into the Sun Ray in the meeting room.

@sun @p @ins0mniak @lanodan @zaitcev They, i.e. the Sunfire the sessions were running on, had to be properly sized, for sure! But since it was Sun offices, that part was more or less taken care of. 😉
