That does use very little cpu power, interesting...

Better than moc, ffplay and aplay, which didn't work when I used it, only gave me static lol.

Do not use bloated window managers. Just use dwm smile

Or you could use JWM which is also very minimal.

i3-wm has a bit of bloat, but nowhere near as much as fluxbox or openbox or blackbox. tongue

Any web page that doesn't render reasonably in a terminal-based web browser is fundamentally broken IMO.

The UK government website is tested with elinks and so is perfectly usable in all browsers.

Just compare the rendering of this very page in Elinks to that in any half-way capable graphical Web browser.

Looks fine to me - I'm responding to you from elinks, no problem whatsoever.
