Oct 06 03:48

I read something about them withholding all new releases for a year.

DaemonFC

Not just restricting LTS releases to paying customers.

Oct 06 03:53

MinceR

ibm and microsoft have no use for Qt

Oct 06 03:53

activelow

that's why, an excess dependency graph is dangerous. alot of things depend on qt, including stuff i wished had remained. Such as LyX, wysiwag editor for TeX.

LyX could be a decent alternative, for authoring various papers, to ditch libreoffice into where it belongs

Oct 06 04:04

activelow

LyX compiles in a few minutes btw.

Oct 06 04:04

activelow

and, maybe, QT framework does support directfb... i'll find out soon

Oct 06 04:05

activelow

a noX11 distro release should be ready this afternoon, so i can test and patch QT and GTK against it

Oct 06 04:06

activelow

there is some other TeX frontends, which use GTK instead of QT, such as GUMMI

Oct 06 04:09

activelow

GUMMI is relatively light-weight, and seems to be a neat compromise, to do authoring with TeX, and have a preview pane right beside

Oct 06 04:10

activelow

a replacement for LO spreadsheets is this: python to process data tables, and gnuplot to render diagrams

Oct 06 04:11

activelow

users and developers have been brainwashed, and became accustomed to office suit products, heavyweight IDEs

Oct 06 04:12

activelow

thinking of Spyder-IDE for example, QT again, will this be any long-term reliable system? doubt it.

Oct 06 04:13

activelow

in comparison python programming with Vim is possible, or emacs.

Oct 06 04:14

activelow

debugging comfort is a crucial question, i still fear gdb, and had always used some IDE for sake of simplicity

Oct 06 04:15

XRevan86

It's a weird feeling: I'm actually definitely more confident in longevity of MariaDB over Oracle MySQL.

Oct 06 04:15

activelow

not postgresql?

Oct 06 04:16

XRevan86

activelow: I'm just comparing the two. The weirdness is that the first impression people get is the exact opposite.

Oct 06 04:16

XRevan86

MariaDB has a lot of high paying customers that *depend* on MariaDB features that Oracle will never implement in MySQL. Meanwhile, MySQL is more of a side project for Oracle.

activelow

high-availability and clustering features of postgresql appealed somehow experimental, some years ago i had a look at it

Oct 06 04:21

XRevan86

Yea, that's something that hasn't been properly addressed.

Oct 06 04:21

XRevan86

But things like Citus exist, and some DBMS that take postgres and put in onto a new base with horizontal scaling and everything.

Oct 06 04:22

activelow

for small projects sqlite suffices, almost always

Oct 06 04:23

activelow

didn't keep track of that one for some time either

Oct 06 04:23

activelow

anyway, mariadb and mysql

Oct 06 04:24

XRevan86

activelow: HA and clustering aren't particularly relevant to SQLite, except that there's a project that does put all that on top of SQLite :).

Oct 06 04:25

XRevan86

I don't really get that – SQLite is not an actually good DMBS, it's only going to disappoint when used in place of a big DBMS.

"For WireGuard, we're using Wintun interfaces [1]. We could roll with a

Oct 06 04:37

DaemonFC

"Since Wintun is a layer 3 interface, it turns out "all" we need to do

DaemonFC

is deterministically generate the GUID at adapter installation time. I

DaemonFC

couldn't find any documented way of doing this. After reversing 3

DaemonFC

kernel drivers and 5 userland DLLs, I found that Windows is using a

DaemonFC

certain registry value as a sort of temporary storage in between two

DaemonFC

phases that it runs serially. By using the super old and ugly

DaemonFC

SetupAPI, we're actually able to split these phases up, so that we can

DaemonFC

modify this registry key before the next phase sees it. This is sort

DaemonFC

of like exploiting a race condition, except we're able to entirely

DaemonFC

pause the race while making our modifications, so we have 100%

reliability."

the IRC logs look a bit weird on Gemini

psydruid

it would be nice to have a bit longer lines so they aren't cut in two with just a few words on a line by themselves

psydruid

at least with Lagrange

I can take a look with Kristall too

schestowitz-TR

are the lines enclosed by ``` ? Clients are inconsistent on how to handle that

schestowitz-TR, this screen has a resolution of 1366x768, my normal laptops have 1920x1080

schestowitz

since the very start, lagrange has a tendency to break kde/kwin compositor if used in certain ways

schestowitz

I can restart the compositor but still slightly annoying

DaemonFC

Did they include a slide about violating the license of LAME to implement Windows malware in 2005?

*techrights-ipfs-bot has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)

DaemonFC

Or the various GPL violations they committed regarding the Linux kernel, and the only people willing to fight back were busybox developers, so Sony promoted toybox.

Oct 06 12:33

schestowitz-TR

toybox?

Oct 06 12:34

toybox is a bsd-licensed replacement for busybox.

Oct 06 12:34

*chunky (~chunky@kcmuc6rr58tti.irc) has joined #techrights

Sony funded the development because busybox was enforcing the GPL.

schestowitz-TR

now it can fund LF to attack GPL

schestowitz-TR

schestowitz-TR

No, that's actually an improvement.

DaemonFC

It _was_ worse yet.

schestowitz-TR

I think it demands RAM based on the total avasilable

schestowitz-TR

so if you throw it at tight ram machine it will allocate less in the buffer

schestowitz-TR

which makes sense I suppose

DaemonFC

Well, GNOME's monitor gives you actual RAM used and then it says how much is in the disk cache.

schestowitz-TR

a trade-off given that allocating more ram won't take up more power

DaemonFC

I think KDE counts it the same way, but possibly not in the same units.

schestowitz-TR

kde breaks it into two

schestowitz-TR

press ctrl+esc

schestowitz-TR

ksysguard (not renamed) shows two columns

schestowitz-TR

one if the "real" usage

*is

schestowitz-TR

#polio and #measles #vaccines are exceptionally popular because they actively prevent, they're a one-time thing (not "subscription", e.g. "boosters" every x months), they're affordable and they help stop the spread (actual eradication, not "lower hospitalisation" rates).

If we're serious about ending the #covid19 crisis the very first step should be eradication... of the #patent #monopolies on these things.

Oct 06 18:33

schestowitz-TR

like astrazenecaCA,some US firms that falsely advertised- Putin-V, and some cheap stuff from ground zero of COVID-19

Oct 06 18:34

schestowitz-TR

for me, as we have no foreign vectors (kids, who cannot work from home like us), the best vaccine -- for now -- is staying well in

Oct 06 18:34

MinceR

yeah, a choice between imperfect but working vaccines and unknown crap that could do anything and you won't know in advance

schestowitz-TR

that applies to all

schestowitz-TR

not just China's

schestowitz-TR

our neighbours got severe case of shigles

schestowitz-TR

possibly because it weakened her immune system

schestowitz-TR

the clinical trials are done in vitro

schestowitz-TR

and in real time, large scale

schestowitz-TR

over time we'll know what each vaccine does to who...

schestowitz-TR

the AZ one seems crap

schestowitz-TR

look at the UK numbers

schestowitz-TR

and my 2 best friends regret taking it

schestowitz-TR

did them more harm than good

schestowitz-TR

according to them

schestowitz-TR

turns out it inflames bad joints

schestowitz-TR

and the specialists in that say they see a sharp uptick since people got those shots

schestowitz-TR

not that BillBC mention that.... that would be "anti-vaxxer"

schestowitz-TR

it's our "patriotic duty"

MinceR

yeah, it also applies to russia's crap

schestowitz-TR

yeah

schestowitz-TR

for sure

schestowitz-TR

as I said, tackle this and climate change together

schestowitz-TR

less travel, no "back to normal" attempts

schestowitz-TR

the "normal" was bad anyway

MinceR

which was approvied in hungary amid the dictator urging the relevant authority to make a quick decision, not an informed one

MinceR

s/vie/ve/

schestowitz-TR

all the capital amassed by very few, who profit from things like cinemas

schestowitz-TR

MinceR

and next time they circumvented them entirely

schestowitz-TR

Orban is an idiot

Oct 06 18:39

schestowitz-TR

from what I've read, he thought like Belarus

Oct 06 18:39

schestowitz-TR

I gather he thought covid-19 was just some "soros" or "gates" something

Oct 06 18:39

schestowitz-TR

in the uk we see deaths coming close to nothing when we have lock-downs

schestowitz-TR

deaths linked to this virus anyway

MinceR

he thought it was an annoyance because it got in the way of the usual baiting against immigrants

schestowitz-TR

and they then open up entire STADIUMS

schestowitz-TR

40k new cases today alone

schestowitz-TR

40x31=over 1200000 per month

schestowitz-TR

yay! freedom day!

Oct 06 18:41

schestowitz-TR

"we're comiing for YOU next"

Oct 06 18:41

schestowitz-TR

the disease of the 1% will soon be the disease of the 20%

Oct 06 18:41

schestowitz-TR

and that's basically the borisnaro plan

The Communist Party's vaccine.

Oct 06 20:38

DaemonFC

So great, they had to shut down a clinic in Hong Kong who told people it was dodgy and to get the Pfizer.

Oct 06 20:38

DaemonFC

Making a live attenuated virus vaccine not the cutting edge of medicine.

Oct 06 20:40

DaemonFC

It is a great way to crank out billions of doses at relatively little cost, which is what they have to focus on.

Oct 06 20:40

DaemonFC

Mainly because they let their population get out of control.

Oct 06 20:41

DaemonFC

Many people in China obviously are going to have respiratory system damage already because of all of the pollution.

Oct 06 20:41

DaemonFC

The US Embassy in Beijing takes air samples and posts them.

Oct 06 20:42

DaemonFC

They're obviously a fair bit worse than what the Communists will admit to.

Oct 06 20:42

DaemonFC

They chose to make their country a sacrifice zone with all of the pollution in exchange for fake economic growth.

Oct 06 20:43

DaemonFC

Literally, all money is, is me handing you paper (or us agreeing that some numbers changed hands in a bank balance) and then you give me something real in return.

Oct 06 20:43

DaemonFC

Most of the world has had enormous trade deficits with China for decades now, not just the US.

Oct 06 20:44

DaemonFC

And the reason it works is because they don't call the debt. If they did it would either ruin us or we'd just refuse to pay.

Oct 06 20:44

DaemonFC

So we all agree to keep pretending that this is sustainable, and they have growth and we have money.

Oct 06 20:44

DaemonFC

The problem with Keynesian Economics is that it totally ignores the relationship between the money and the value that backs it.

Oct 06 20:45

DaemonFC

They go "Oh hell, why can't we just print up a trillion dollar coin and put it at the Fed and keep paying our bills?".

Oct 06 20:46

DaemonFC

Well, relatively speaking, a trillion would be noticeable, but only barely. If you kept doing it, however, there would eventually be a tidal wave of inflation and nobody would want to loan us money again as soon as the Treasury could borrow.

Oct 06 20:46

DaemonFC

Because they'd have to worry about inflation eating their assets faster than any amount of interest accrued.

The Republicans aren't really concerned with massive inflation. They're worried (1) that the programs will be popular and impossible to kill later, (2) the infrastructure bill is something Biden can shove in Trump's face if he comes back as something Biden delivered that Trump failed with, and that to keep the inflation from getting out of control, the taxes will effectively be impossible to repeal.

Many people seem to get away with running Debian Testing and Sid as their desktop.

Oct 06 20:57

DaemonFC

I would never use Sid as my main system.

Oct 06 20:57

DaemonFC

But Testing might be okay if you just end up with a system that's too new for Stable and you don't want to mess around tryng to find some way around that. But the first thing I'd do is reset the apt sources to point at the release codename of the next version.

Oct 06 20:58

DaemonFC

Eventually, it would get released and "become Stable". If you leave them set to Testing, it would just roll over into the next development cycle.

"When "mb_optimize_scan" is turned on, as mentioned above, the groups may not

DaemonFC

* get traversed linearly. That may result in subsequent allocations being not

DaemonFC

* close to each other. And so, the underlying device may get filled up in a

DaemonFC

* non-linear fashion. While that may not matter on non-rotational devices, for

DaemonFC

* rotational devices that may result in higher seek times. "mb_linear_limit"

DaemonFC

* tells mballoc how many groups mballoc should search linearly before

DaemonFC

* performing consulting above data structures for more efficient lookups. For

DaemonFC

* non rotational devices, this value defaults to 0 and for rotational devices

DaemonFC

* this is set to MB_DEFAULT_LINEAR_LIMIT."

DaemonFC

So turn it on if you have an SSD and turn it off if you're using a hard disk drive.

DaemonFC

Linear traversal is slower, but could end up causing file system fragmentation, which will hurt hard disk performance.

btw

lbgmi.git is coming along nicely. i've got someone working on a libreboot site for gemini

schestowitz-TR

cool

schestowitz-TR

what about savegnu.org ?

leah

abandoned for now. gnu assembly seems to have more bark than bite

leah

those people can sort themselves out without my help

schestowitz-TR

leah: good

schestowitz-TR

and yes, they're off the radar, have been for months

schestowitz-TR

any mention of them only helps them

leah

yeah so no need to save gnu

leah

gnu is fine

leah

for now

leah

the problem is that they acthually made good points. but what they were saying was irrelevant, because they just wanted power for themselves

Oct 06 23:33

leah

and the status quo isn't broken. gnu does have good leadership under rms

Oct 06 23:33

leah

and he does delegate things to others... and when he's gone, there are procedures in place to replace him, and have the project tick along just fine

Oct 06 23:34

leah

imo the only thing gnu really needs is a better code forge. savannah is garbage

Oct 06 23:34

leah

it's good if all you want is a bare git repository and a mailing list. if you want anything else, you're shit out of luck and have to run your own infrastructure. and many projects too

Oct 06 23:35

activelow

what else should be offered besides mailing list and git repo?

Oct 06 23:35

leah

in the end, we can talk about management structures but all that matters is code. if someone wants to work on your software, they will

Oct 06 23:35

leah

and your only job is to review their code

Oct 06 23:36

leah

activelow: if you want stuff like CI, that's lacking in savannah big-time

Oct 06 23:36

*inky has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)

leah

and a mailing list is inefficient for certain tasks. a bug tracker can move things along

activelow

CI probably doesn't belong there.

activelow

anyway

leah

messages often get buried in a mailing list

leah

the trouble is, fsf doesn't hire enough technical stuff. their current staff is already overworked and just able to maintain current infrastructure

Oct 06 23:38

leah

they need more technical staff if they're going to overhaul that infrastructure

Oct 06 23:38

leah

but then, fsf sysadmins are often told not to touch gnu

Oct 06 23:38

leah

i think they could massively overhaul their infrastructure in a month. and leave the old services running while everyone migrates

Oct 06 23:39

leah

savannah is the only real problem

Oct 06 23:39

leah

it's clunky and hard to use for most people. they need something more user-friendly, so that someone can just very easily start a project. right now lots of people are moving away and using other services instead. gnu could really shine and be best in class but it's stagnating

Oct 06 23:40

leah

fsf did speak of overhauling their infrastructure though. they made a blog post. they were looking into what could replace savannah

Oct 06 23:41

leah

but that's their call to make

Oct 06 23:43

schestowitz-TR

my guess:

schestowitz-TR

they wanted gitlab as base system

schestowitz-TR

but that never happened

schestowitz-TR

RMS said gitlab was doing increasingly bad things

schestowitz-TR

so maybe they regretted this plan

leah

even gitea would be better than savannah

schestowitz-TR

also, they would also stay behind the "real thing'

schestowitz-TR

leah: we do git over gemini

leah

the vast majority of projects only need something very simple

https://baronhk.wordpress.com/2021/10/06/bunsenlabs-put-on-a-lot-of-weight-since-crunchbang-and-doesnt-support-hidpi-out-of-the-box-but-there-are-other-options/

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-baronhk.wordpress.com | BunsenLabs put on a lot of weight since Crunchbang and doesn’t support HiDPI out of the box. But there are other options. – BaronHK's Rants

leah

and gitea will satisfy most needs, while being lightweight

schestowitz-TR

irc: gemini://gemini.techrights.org/chat/index.gmi

leah

the notabug.org guy runs the infrastructure out of pocket

leah

because gogs is cheap to run. and gitea is based on gogs

schestowitz-TR

git: gemini://gemini.techrights.org/git/tr-git/Gemini/

leah

i think gitea would be a great choice for the fsf

DaemonFC

schestowitz-TR, I go back into the mid 2000s and the horrors I had with a "Vista Capable" laptop that made me switch it to GNU/Linux immediately after the "Vista" installer finished and I saw what it ran like.

schestowitz-TR

yeah

leah

it's already better than savannah, and user-friendly

leah

and lightweight

schestowitz-TR

I loved gitea

schestowitz-TR

but many deps

schestowitz-TR

I looked into how to put that on alpine

DaemonFC

Since I would have had to format to go back to Windows XP anyway, I just said fuck it and burned a Mandriva disc.

schestowitz-TR

but we don't have enough code to justify maintaining such a bloated thing

schestowitz-TR

DaemonFC: can you proofread fast?

DaemonFC

Bad time. Dinner.

DaemonFC

I'll be back shortly.

schestowitz-TR

ok, cheers

leah

DaemonFC: and a lightweight distro would still run on that laptop

schestowitz-TR: the only thing that annoys me about browsers nowaday is how bloated they are

Oct 06 23:50

leah

suckless's surf is a nice breath of fresh air. but in general, the web is too bloated, often times the amount of ram you burn through is just javascript applications running on your machine

leah

i shouldn't need to have more than 512MB RAM installed on my computer, even if opening 20 tabs and doing emails. i have 4GB, which used to be a lot, but now its peanuts, because software got 10x more bloated

leah

in 2005, i got by just fine on 512MB

schestowitz-TR

leah: did you try netsurf?

schestowitz-TR

I use it all day long

leah

and i'm still using more or less the same software now

leah

oh, i love netsurf

leah

i have it installed, in fact

schestowitz-TR

yes, I was on 512 and 256 mb of ram until 2007 or 2008

leah

i have all the lightweight browsers installed

leah

try surf

schestowitz-TR

then I need to upgrade to 2gb of ram

http://surf.suckless.org/

leah

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-surf.suckless.org | surf | suckless.org software that sucks less

schestowitz-TR

last year for the first time I bumped up from 2gb

leah

if you compile this but without javascript enabled, it's very fast

leah

with javascript, and it's still fast, but the web itself is bloated

schestowitz-TR

a browser alone could take a GB

leah

but surf has a benefit over netsurf

schestowitz-TR

I try gemini where possible

leah

it uses webkit and as such, offers a more complete rendering engine

schestowitz-TR

I wrote some scripts for that

leah

you configure it by modifying the source code

leah

so if you want javascript disabled, there's a toggle for that in src before building it

leah

it's 2000 lines of source code

schestowitz-TR

wow

leah

yeah

schestowitz-TR

ii is a lot less

leah

it simply uses the webkit library

leah

surf is basically just a webkit frontend

schestowitz-TR

techrights-news and Techrights-ipfs are ii

schestowitz-TR

suckless

leah

barebones webkit frontend

leah

you should look at more of their software :)

leah

i've been informed that some of the people there are... a bit quirky, let's say

Oct 06 23:55

leah

but the software is great

Oct 06 23:55

leah

they have a nice window manager too: http://dwm.suckless.org/

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-dwm.suckless.org | dwm - dynamic window manager | suckless.org software that sucks less

schestowitz-TR

iirc, ii is like a few hundreds of LOCs

schestowitz-TR

some gemini clients are less than 100

schestowitz-TR

or servers

schestowitz-TR

like solene's

leah

also 2000 lines. it's basically just a very raw frontend on top of x. all their code is tiny, but punches well above its weight

leah

there's also a fork of it for wayland, called dwl

activelow

tmux :)

that too

leah

(with vim for composing mails)

leah

and you've got a very light setup

leah

i'm migrating to all of that soon. i'm currently on lxde, which i now regard as bloat, after looking at their site

activelow

i fully drop x11 (and wayland)

leah

that's hardcore

activelow

i even dropped unix98 pty recently, and patched tmux to support it on linux
