DaemonFC[m]https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Hyperbola-Linux-To-BSDDec 24 01:42
DaemonFC[m]Their claims were largely hyperbolic. Dec 24 01:42
MinceRmoronix's claims?Dec 24 01:44
DaemonFC[m]No.Dec 24 01:44
DaemonFC[m]The claims that Linux-Libre is somehow unsustainable.Dec 24 01:45
DaemonFC[m]They actually won't be FSF-approved as OpenBSD either unless they make that kernel not work with many pieces of hardware.Dec 24 01:45
MinceRwell, Linux is unsustainable as long as microshit and ibm control itDec 24 01:45
MinceRand therefore so is Linux-LibreDec 24 01:46
DaemonFC[m]OpenBSD has pretty much the same policy about non-Free drivers as Fedora.Dec 24 01:46
DaemonFC[m]That they aren't acceptable.Dec 24 01:46
DaemonFC[m]Stallman insists that device firmware is unacceptable too.Dec 24 01:46
MinceRdoing the same to OpenBSD should be possibleDec 24 01:46
MinceRi mean, the -Libre thingDec 24 01:46
oiaohmWith most of the same long term nightmares.Dec 24 01:46
DaemonFC[m]Yeah. I mean, you're just coming up with a list of firmware you don't like and removing it.Dec 24 01:47
MinceRyeahDec 24 01:47
oiaohmCaused by old firmware in devices with highly nasty bugs being left in play.Dec 24 01:47
MinceRthat's the user's problem :>Dec 24 01:47
DaemonFC[m]https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Intel-Initial-Linux-5.6-DRMDec 24 01:49
DaemonFC[m]Intel gave me a lump of coal. They made my laptop use twice as much power with a later kernel.Dec 24 01:49
oiaohmInsists device firmware is unacceptable is what causes nightmare.  Lot of Linux kernel driver developers will code drivers to insist that the device has X firmware or newer loaded.Dec 24 01:49
oiaohmdue to really nasty flaws.Dec 24 01:49
DaemonFC[m]How does Linux-Libre handle that? Patch the version requirement out?Dec 24 01:50
oiaohmExactly the problem.  Patch out means to load up replacement firmware and patch out the lock then when the code made for newer firmware goes nuts blame Linux kernel developers. Dec 24 01:52
oiaohmLot of ways the Linux Libre idea is not maintainable.Dec 24 01:52
oiaohmYou at least have to drop the idea of totally banning out firmware loaded when it is required or in fact invest in making clean hardware that does not need closed firmware.Dec 24 01:53
DaemonFC[m]Well, every time I don't just wait for the torrent, I'm let down.Dec 24 01:54
oiaohmOpenbsd when it comes to graphics drivers are highly based on Linux graphics drivers to going to OpenBSD will not get away from the basic problem.Dec 24 01:54
DaemonFC[m]When I got a free trial of Amazon Prime and tried to stream, it gave me a content security policy violation.Dec 24 01:54
DaemonFC[m]That was on Windows 10.Dec 24 01:54
<--amarsh04 has quit (Remote host closed the connection)Dec 24 01:55
MinceRafaik it's not device firmware as such that is unacceptable, but nonfree firmware isDec 24 02:20
MinceRand it's not guaranteed to breakDec 24 02:20
MinceRif course, when there's fallback firmware, this doesn't seem to help muchDec 24 02:21
MinceRsince that firmware is most likely nonfreeDec 24 02:21
MinceRah, i missed that the article says they're doing a "hard fork"Dec 24 02:22
MinceRthat would involve a lot more workDec 24 02:22
DaemonFC[m]Now some sites don't even work with Video Download Helper because of HTTP Live Streaming.Dec 24 02:25
DaemonFC[m]It needs a "helper app" that's a compiled binary program that you have to run on your computer.Dec 24 02:25
DaemonFC[m]They don't even have to use "DRM" to make trying to get at the video and save it annoying.Dec 24 02:25
MinceRyoutube-dl might be able to handle itDec 24 02:26
DaemonFC[m]The situation continues to get worse.Dec 24 02:26
MinceRthere was a site i wanted to get a video from and youtube-dl didn't know it and Video Download Helper wanted that binaryDec 24 02:27
DaemonFC[m]Maybe I'll see if I can set that one domain to get a user agent that's too old to have HLS and see what the site does in response.Dec 24 02:27
MinceRbut i could dig a url out of it that youtube-dl could handleDec 24 02:27
MinceR("it" being Video Download Helper)Dec 24 02:34
MinceRhttps://hugelolcdn.com/i/642148.jpgDec 24 02:34
DaemonFC[m]I already have to fake the user agent to Chrome on Windows to make Facebook video calls work.Dec 24 02:35
DaemonFC[m]I reported it to Mozilla and they never fixed it and that was almost a year ago.Dec 24 02:35
MinceRclassic mozillaDec 24 02:35
DaemonFC[m]Vivaldi is having to say they're Chrome and they are based on Chrome!Dec 24 02:35
MinceRhave you tried complaining to dumbFuckBook?Dec 24 02:35
DaemonFC[m]They said "Facebook told us they'd fix it soon."Dec 24 02:36
DaemonFC[m]That was last year.Dec 24 02:36
