oiaohmReally it is right that Microsoft is a really easy villain with the issues with github.   There is the reality that we have not setup systems designed to support using multi mirrors well so that if one supplier has some issue the project can go forwards like nothing happened.Nov 05 08:03
schestowitzgithub is only one of several aspectNov 05 08:03

schestowitzso you wonder, what DOES the FSF do all this time?Nov 05 08:46
Narratorwell, nobody need new software and that menan that FSF is not so important to save Nov 05 08:48
Narrator.. mean ...Nov 05 08:48
oiaohmopen source is still important.   The reality is the cloud could have even more control on us if we do lose complete software control of our devices.Nov 05 08:51
oiaohmRight to repair fights coming important long term as well.Nov 05 08:53
Narratorwell, cloud operators could force users to use some subset of current software and could mix properiety and open software Nov 05 08:53

oiaohmpsydroid: and you don't have the right to really repair that hardware either.     Open Hardware bits out of open source like the pinephone I am seeing as long term important.Nov 05 10:49
oiaohmSome of it is getting somehow getting buyers to class repairablity as a critical feature.Nov 05 10:50
psydroidoiaohm, I was already looking at getting a replacement motherboard in case there is really no way to unlock the bootloader using some kind of exploit, but in the longer run I am thinking of designing replacement motherboards for existing phones and other devices as a way to liberate themNov 05 10:52
psydroidYes, I wouldn't have bought this one  and it's why I stuck with 4-year-old devices for so long, which I could control and only needed the kernel to be liberatedNov 05 10:55
psydroidThe irony is that you could install just a few bare applications on this phone while using a generic Android or GNU/Linux device for everything else, so I don't know what kind of control they want to achieveNov 05 10:56

vZS1Re: GUIX. Even if it contains conspirers, we get still grab ideas from it. I think that's the pragmatic and effective thing to do.Nov 05 11:10
vZS1Not that the ideas are unique in any way. Declarative workflows have been around for ages. But it's useful to see an implementation.Nov 05 11:11
vZS1psydroid: we need people like you with hardware expertise.Nov 05 11:12
oiaohmpsydroid: there is the general problem with the idea of take existing device and replace board.   It having to meet the exact power/heat budget based on the cooling of the case.Nov 05 11:56
oiaohmIt can be in a lot of cases simple to raid the old device for its screen and usable parts and do motherboard with new case so you can in fact match the cooling solution up right.Nov 05 12:01
*obarun has quit (Remote host closed the connection)Nov 05 12:01
psydroidmaybe cutting the power budget would allow this to happen, although I agree developing open devices from the very beginning is what we really needNov 05 12:05
oiaohmIts not exactly power budget its the trapped heat problemNov 05 12:06
vZS1psydroid: don't waste your time with oiaohm. Troll that only discourages and wastes time.Nov 05 12:06
oiaohmIf you are generating heat in the wrong location of the case where the cooling of the case it not designed to take heat way its a fast route to something over heated and dead.Nov 05 12:06
oiaohmThat happened with few protoboards to upgrade old neo phones.Nov 05 12:07

oiaohmThe most insane device for thermal design was the one apple laptop that had a fan that thermally was not connected to anything.   So it sucked air in blow air out of case and effectivelly cooled nothing.   Of course the thing throttled badly and commonly end life with a dead cpu. Nov 05 12:18

oiaohmschestowitz: when you are in a location being short on funds it get tempting to take money from those you should not.   This applies to open source and closed source development equaly.   How to fund your need software development.   Some do have your option to do other jobs to fund it.  Others don't.  Some projects need full time developers to keep up with the problems.Nov 05 12:43

schestowitzfreesw doesn't need to be a traditional jobNov 05 12:52
schestowitzmany debian devs have a jobNov 05 12:53
schestowitzand debian project keeps them well trained and more useful to the employerNov 05 12:53
schestowitze.g. maintaining packages that their employer relies onNov 05 12:53
schestowitzand then they become specialised and can expand thoseNov 05 12:53
schestowitzso it becomes sort of symbioticNov 05 12:53
schestowitzmy job is made easier by the fact I keep up with newsNov 05 12:53
oiaohmI have seen the more well trained used in closed source for people to beta test different accountancy software.    So the symbiotic appears in the closed source side as well.Nov 05 12:55
oiaohmYou can have the same downsides where employer need stuff done other than the packages in the debian case or the accountacy case the beta testing not get done.   So there are side effects to that does not need to be a traditional job.Nov 05 12:57
oiaohmSometimes really project harmful side effects.Nov 05 12:57

notanamberI don't know if this is the right place to ask:Nov 05 13:40
notanamberwith friends we'd like to leave github for our projects. There are free alternatives or better than github (besides hosting the repositories on our own servers)Nov 05 13:40
notanamberare there...Nov 05 13:41
XRevan86notanamber: You could consider Codeberg, an instance of Gitea.Nov 05 13:43
schestowitznotanamber: hiNov 05 13:43
schestowitzI was going to suggest the sameNov 05 13:43
schestowitzexactly those twoNov 05 13:43
schestowitzbecause unlike gitlab you get access to everythingNov 05 13:44
schestowitzand can self-host afaikNov 05 13:44
schestowitznow sure what codeberg is based on Nov 05 13:44
schestowitzFSF said that (by this year's end?) it would have new hosting for gnu alsoNov 05 13:44

schestowitz[22:12] [Notice] -viera to #boycottnovell-social- Dr. Roy Schestowitz (็ฝ—ไผŠ): Very, very strange: (reproducible on two machines, several times) when visiting the #mediagoblin Web site/s it seems like the system toggles on "Sync Selections" (selection to clipboard). Why and how? Who the heck knows! [https://pleroma.site/objects/3032d4a8-25e4-46f3-8f26-3187cde59446]Nov 05 23:31

schestowitz[21:16] [Notice] -viera to #boycottnovell-social- Dr. Roy Schestowitz (็ฝ—ไผŠ): Not for the first time, over the past 2 hours I've wasted loads of rime trying to 'unfsck' my machine after merely visiting #mediagoblin site screwed up its state. Reproducible in my prior PC as well. Is reboot the last recourse? [https://pleroma.site/objects/ba0856b7-c153-45a6-871c-07810b19e70d]Nov 05 23:32

schestowitzA shame that a gnu site of all things causes me this mess repeatedlyNov 05 23:34
schestowitzyou'd think their "simple" solution for video would be least harmfulNov 05 23:34
schestowitzin klipper the settings was set to "Sync Selections" Nov 05 23:34
