It is shame that browser still not support footnotes, math, music.
W3C should start thinking that it is not just fancy display for users.
For operating systems, more is necessary for a operating language other than a static language. We need a authoring system which can describe all of the knowledge. First step, we should able to turn the books into that language.
the good old simple protocol approach for mail against fancy browser base mail client.
Why we need a complicate platform bound javascript or flash applications?
If browser-based-os means we edit the data on the browser in place without needing a platform bound fragile editor loading from server, that is a good step forward. The browser should be a read/write device. Multiple protocol, multiple format, portable, easy to develop for. Not a in-compatible fancy jungle.
The reason is in many occassion, people waiting beside you will watching you type if the password is masked.
And that mask is effortless, just as the bank telling us to cover the kebpad when entering the password. The clicking sound sold it really well. And a hidden mic would really unnotice.
If you feel the need, cover the screen with your hand, that also tell people it is unpolite to watch you typing a password.
Extended attributes are universal now. but the usage is still low.
Attributes can be used to track the usage of a file, for example, a pdf file, word file. and all the settings the user last set can be stored as attributes and next time it got open the user can continue the work.
If copy of a file, or move a file reserve the attributes, that means a lot better world.
There are many use of attributes, and it can allow users to be creative. We just need a few tools and examples.
I continuously try to find a low power cpu. using less limited on time. But it is just the boot time is very very long. And the sleep mode very very unrealiable.
Until they make os completely different. Making only the minimal in boot time. And use startup scripts to start process when needed. Allow process to die without affect hardware.

Just to say, if the password is enter by maching (remembered) it need to be masked.
The reason is in many occassion, people waiting beside you will watching you type if the password is masked.
And that mask is effortless, just as the bank telling us to cover the kebpad when entering the password. The clicking sound sold it really well. And a hidden mic would really unnotice.
