sabslikesobs•9mo ago
Not only is this a wonderful idea, the skeuomorphic design looks awesome and it works well on mobile. Wow!

Note also that the source can be found through the menu button, which leads to https://github.com/evadecker/hypertext.tv.

nickthegreek•9mo ago
very smooth on mobile. wish it had some soft sound effects to match the vibe
aiiizzz•9mo ago
Very laggy for me.
hcarvalhoalves•9mo ago
Yeah, I miss buttons and VFD displays.
skydhash•9mo ago
I have an AVR and both it and its button is a pleasure to use. By comparison, the Apple TV is non existent physically and the remote is beautiful to look at and awful to use.
reaperducer•9mo ago
Yeah, I miss buttons and VFD displays.

I miss the clarity and aesthetics of VFDs, but I don't miss actual VFDs.

My KitchenAid oven and microwave both have VFD displays. They have degraded to the point of being almost unusable in just eight years.

medhir•9mo ago
omg, this was made at sfpc! spent some time there in 2016, love to see things being made there still.

the crt shader aesthetic is really cool. will try and make a pr of my own sometime :)

They didn't invent the phrase for the cartoon?
jachee•9mo ago
It’s literally the reference I was making. :)
helaoban•9mo ago
this is so cool
russellbeattie•9mo ago
Nice! The word "hypertext" still evokes a sense of wonder and futurism to me, no matter how old the term is. I own hypertext.plus. Someday I'll have to make a list of all the active hypertext.* websites and register another one as a sort of meta-hypertext site listing them all.
ktpsns•9mo ago
And yet the word has a definition https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertext and is studied since decades in science, long predating the world wide Web.

fun fact: .tv domain name represents the island of tuvalu in the pacific. everytime you register a domain name here, ICANN pays them an annual sum for upkeep
immibis•9mo ago
Fun fact: it's one of the tiny island's biggest exports
input_sh•9mo ago
Dang, what's next? .me being owned by Montenegro? .ai by Anguilla? .fm by Micronesia!?

Jokes aside, every two-letter domain belongs to a "country" (using that term very broadly), some countries just got luckier than others.

vivzkestrel•9mo ago
maybe not as lucky in the case of tuvalu as it is estimated that the island is going to sink completely in a few decades
qqcqq•9mo ago
I don’t understand how that’s related
vivzkestrel•9mo ago
he said "some countries just got luckier than the others"

kaichanvong•9mo ago
"it starts to", wut?, it actually looks reporting hyperlinking–URL issue, maybe recursion U.R.L. (within that U.R.I.)
dmje•9mo ago
This is so great. The design ethic is exquisite. Love it.
fouronnes3•9mo ago
Changes channel faster than a modern tv
StefanBatory•9mo ago
I remember seeing similar idea in the past on HN - a website serving a few channels, that were the same for everyone browsing at the time. Is it a similar thing? It strikes some memories, but it's hazy for me :(

Also - amazing job with the design

zenkey•9mo ago
Really cool. And no ads!

Unusable on Firefox sadly, was getting maybe 5 fps.
tyteen4a03•9mo ago
Fine on my macOS Firefox.
alternatex•9mo ago
Isn't that just WebKit?
Kwpolska•9mo ago
No, macOS has real browsers, you're thinking of iOS.
rchaud•9mo ago
Confirmed, FF on MacOS Sonoma with all the usual extensions.
Gualdrapo•9mo ago
Weird enough it seems to work pretty well on Firefox mobile
lightlyused•9mo ago
Fine here. FF on Linux
sabellito•9mo ago
Indeed when opening it in a fresh ff profile it loaded just fine.

To redeem myself a bit, spent the last 20 min disabling extensions to find out the culprit, but even with all of them disabled it's still unusable on my default profile. Then spent some time in about:config (and the normal settings like hardware acceleration), but coulnd't find anything obvious.

vijaybritto•9mo ago
This is just beautiful artistry. I absolutely love it! Only thing missing is the click/clack sounds on those buttons
1317•9mo ago
thought this was going to be about things like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_Broadcast_Broadband_TV (hypertext on tv)
westurner•9mo ago
Same. Thanks; TIL about HbbTV: Hybrid Broadcast Broadband TV: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_Broadcast_Broadband_TV

Had been wondering how to add a game clock below the TV that syncs acceptably; a third screen: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30890265
