The Emacs OS still uses 8MiB (not including external libraries, but you only really use ncurses in fbcon), thus it works great on that much RAM/ [23:02] *IsambardPrince (~isambardprince@5dpqeb95zu7qg.irc) has joined #techrights [23:02] Righty Old versions of GNU software also work fine when the system has 88MB total of RAM (yes, you have the freedom to use old version). [23:03] IsambardPrince Most of the system will still run on a 1996 Pentium iirc. [23:03] IsambardPrince As long as it has MMX. [23:03] IsambardPrince Someone ported a modern Linux kernel to a Nintendo 64 last year. [23:03] Righty Provided you don't try to run bloat, sure, as it's not like the 1996 pentium was slow. [23:04] Righty Remember that Linux is only a kernel, thus writing [23:04] Righty "Linux kernel" is repeating yourself and confuses people. [23:04] IsambardPrince Those old computers ran an entire OS with a GUI and video games. [23:04] IsambardPrince And played music. [23:04] IsambardPrince And surfed the Web. [23:04] IsambardPrince Things gets worse then you need a faster computer. [23:04] Righty That person ported more than Linux to the N64, otherwise it would just panic() on boot./ [23:04] IsambardPrince The Web gets worse, the OS gets worse, the programmers get worse. [23:05] IsambardPrince Faster computer, faster computer, faster computer. [23:05] Righty I've seen someone port just Linux to the SoC on a HDD and watch it panic() on boot. [23:06] IsambardPrince If it wasn't for embedded use cases, the kernel would likely be much worse than it is now. [23:06] IsambardPrince Those people demanding more and more Rust shit are going to ruin the embedded use cases. [23:06] IsambardPrince They're ruin a lot of other things too. [23:06] IsambardPrince *going to [23:07] Righty Rust shillers have ruined a lot of software already/ [23:07] IsambardPrince You didn't need much of a computer because of all the tiny C libraries running around. [23:07] IsambardPrince But (1) nobody is doing that with Rust and (2) even if you could and did, it would still be a whole extra dependency. [23:07] Righty More like properly written C libraries - they're not tiny considering by the amount of functionality. [23:08] IsambardPrince No, they have a ton of functionality. [23:08] IsambardPrince GNU libc sprawls. [23:08] Righty I do love the best libc. [23:08] IsambardPrince Some "GNU" stuff isn't really all that efficient at all. [23:09] Righty Works fast on my machine. [23:09] IsambardPrince It's the "So we compromised and bought two." system. [23:09] Righty We bought a whole 2 MiB system/ [23:09] IsambardPrince Microsoft is like that I can't stop, I won't stop, I wouldn't know how to stop. [23:10] IsambardPrince Only they can't fix the bugs, they won't stop adding them, and they wouldn't know how to improve anyway. [23:10] Righty They're getting ready for their ecocide next year, getting ready to drop windows 10. [23:10] IsambardPrince They won't commit to QA and they don't have people capable of it. [23:10] Righty They fired all their testing team. [23:10] IsambardPrince Long time ago. [23:11] Righty They now use "windows insiders" for testing, with many computers broken and microsoft still pushes out the known bad updates. [23:11] IsambardPrince Windows 98 was the last thing I had that worked right, and even then, only with a huge amount of surgery to purge the antitrust case bits. [23:11] Righty 98 was a crashy pile of garbage. [23:11] IsambardPrince Not when you purged it. [23:12] MinceR they had a testing team? [23:12] MinceR what for? [23:12] IsambardPrince I created a custom disk image when I was finished, so what I got if I had to recover the computer was already missing IE, Active Desktop, Outlook Express, all the other junk and garbage, and had the Windows 95 B shell and all the still relevant hotfixes and updates. [23:12] Righty It probably would crash less, but that would still crash far more than was bearable. [23:13] IsambardPrince It took several hours to set up Windows 98 and then set about doing that by hand. [23:13] Righty MinceR: To ignore and push out the bad updates anyway. [23:13] IsambardPrince So I just imaged the disk when I was done. [23:13] MinceR :> [23:13] Righty microsoft also dogfoods some updates to their internal computers and ignores their own developers when things like all the drives disappear. [23:14] IsambardPrince Where I ran into an issue was the DOS recovery utility read the disk image and applied a 4 GB disk image to a 20 GB hard disk I bought later. [23:14] IsambardPrince So the first thing I needed to do was expand the FAT32 volume to 20 GB and then image the disk again. :/ [23:14] Righty Imagine playing all those silly games instead of installing the 1998 copy of GNU. [23:15] IsambardPrince 4 GB was fine, until I filled it all up with games and MP3s and a Linux volume. [23:15] IsambardPrince "Well, shit." [23:15] MinceR well, i had to use MICROS~1's unworkable garbage at multiple employers now, so unfortunately i don't have to imagine [23:15] IsambardPrince No matter how much space you have you still have space hogs. [23:15] IsambardPrince "PIGS IN SPAAAAAACE!!!" [23:15] IsambardPrince Even 4 TB can feel cramped now. [23:15] Righty 8TB doesn't fit enough free software and chinese cartoons/ [23:16] IsambardPrince Well, you get a 4 GB hard drive, it's a lot until you want a bunch of late 90s video games and MP3s and a loopmounted Linux filesystem to go along with Windows. [23:16] IsambardPrince Then you need 20. 20 is huge. [23:17] IsambardPrince Then the OS gets larger, and you put more stuff on it, and it goes into the XP era, and 20 GB isn't enough. [23:17] IsambardPrince 100 GB. That's fucking enormous. [23:17] Righty What is this "Linux filesystem" you speak of? Generally Linux isn't even installed to anything but the /boot partition/folder. [23:17] IsambardPrince Then instead of MP3s, now people have figured out entire movies, with MPEG-4 ASP! [23:17] Righty Generally you would of had a ext2 partition full of GNU and other software. [23:18] IsambardPrince Flash forward 20 years and you're trying to back up games that are 30-40 GB _each_ and store movies and TV series and all the porn on the Web because Project 2025 is coming to take it from you so you're like the squirrel saving walnuts for later. [23:18] IsambardPrince MinceR, ^ [23:18] IsambardPrince And then the fucking drive crashes. [23:19] IsambardPrince And you lose it all and cry, because the floor is concrete and you married a manchild who grabbed the hard disk and immediately dropped it. [23:19] Righty The proprietary software on the drive usually crashes now, rather than a physical fail. [23:19] Righty HDDs now often have drop detection and tend to park the heads when you drop it. [23:20] IsambardPrince That one failed even though it wasn't on when it was dropped. [23:21] Righty Strange, I've never seen a HDD fail if dropped when heads parked and off. [23:22] Righty Anyway, it's time to deal with what appears to be a failed HDD, so shutdown time. [23:26] IsambardPrince John Fetterman got on his Shitter to blast people for celebrating Brian Thompson's death. [23:26] IsambardPrince Fetterman is the Senator who took an entire month off because he was feeling blue. [23:26] IsambardPrince And checked into a government hospital that didn't bill him. [23:27] IsambardPrince And nobody fired him from his job where they work half the year and take the entire month off for Christmas and Thanksgiving and Juneteenth. [23:28] Righty Probably do less damage only working half the year. [23:28] IsambardPrince They have a pretty full calendar next year, by their standards. [23:28] IsambardPrince Horrifying.
