Show HN: Online Game Emulation Platform – Afterplay.io Hello HN users, I made a web app that allows you to upload any SNES or GameBoy ROM file and play right within the web browser. It’s called Afterplay.io. It got a lot of upvotes on Reddit, and I noticed users signing up and coming back to play games every day, which feels great and has motivated me to keep on developing this thing :). Demo Video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3K9iYbJ-1lQ Site : https://afterplay.io Problem: I couldn't play emulated games across my devices easily with saves. The Apple App Store does not allow emulator apps. Solution: Use Afterplay.io. It works in the browser, on PC’s, Mac’s, Android and iOS phones. Once you upload a game file, it will be stored on our server and we save the state of your gameplay automatically each 20 seconds. You can sign in, upload and play a game from your Mac, and later resume from your iPad or Android phone right where you left off. This is the first iteration of the web app. The core functionality is working but there’s still a lot of work to do. So I’m writing code and pushing tiny improvements a few times a day. I welcome any thoughts or suggestions. May 18, 2021 at 05:00PM
Show HN: Launch VM workloads securely and instantaneously, without VMs Hello HN! We've been working on a new hypervisor https://kwarantine.xyz that can run strongly isolated containers. This is still a WIP, but we wanted to give the community an idea about our approach, its benefits, and various use cases it unlocks. Today, VMs are used to host containers, and make up for the lack of strong security as well as kernel isolation in containers. This work adds this missing security piece in containers. We plan on launching a free private beta soon. Meanwhile, we'd deeply appreciate any feedback, and happy to answer any questions here or on our slack channel. Thanks! April 29, 2021 at 07:50AM
