DaemonFC | this Games For Windows Live client is a son of a bitch to work around | Feb 20 00:06 |
DaemonFC | suddenly it's appearing in tons of games that don't even have multiplayer :) | Feb 20 00:06 |

TechrightsBot-tr | Not a web page! Aborting text/plain type | Feb 20 00:07 |
DaemonFC | "Oh, look, now you can chat with your XBOX Live friends from your computer! Durrrr, and it only adds another 300 megs to the game!" | Feb 20 00:08 |
DaemonFC | "It breaks Wine? Fantastic!" | Feb 20 00:08 |
DaemonFC | "Bugs in the Live client stops your game from loading even on Windows until you track down another 60 MB file to install to patch it with? Super!" | Feb 20 00:09 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, Clearly the Games For Windows Live is there with the end user experience in mind, you see? | Feb 20 00:09 |
DaemonFC | :D | Feb 20 00:09 |
MinceR | :> | Feb 20 00:10 |
DaemonFC | Its presence is unnecessary, it adds nothing to the game except a few hundred megs of support files and bugs, and it's there because? | Feb 20 00:10 |
DaemonFC | Microsoft said jump and Bethesda asked how high? | Feb 20 00:10 |
MinceR | maybe m$ holds them hostage or something | Feb 20 00:11 |
DaemonFC | Oh look, it adds an icon to Games Explorer, which takes exactly as much effort to open as the Applications folder | Feb 20 00:11 |
MinceR | "adopt our newest crap or we'll accidentally break compatibility in our next update" | Feb 20 00:11 |
MinceR | or they can still afford to pay bribes | Feb 20 00:11 |
DaemonFC | but in Games Explorer, it tells you what Windows thinks of your PC on a confusing scale that changes meaning with every Windows release :) | Feb 20 00:11 |
DaemonFC | nothing at all like "You need a Pentium 4 or higher" | Feb 20 00:12 |

DaemonFC | that's just too non-specific, and besides, why make the user stop and think "Why do you only need 1 GB of RAM with XP, but 2 GB is the minimum if you have Windows 7?" | Feb 20 00:12 |
DaemonFC | :) | Feb 20 00:13 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, This Games For Windows Live bullshit is just adding to the hostility the game publishers have already fostered towards themselves with DRM | Feb 20 00:14 |
DaemonFC | it's another reason why the game won't just work out of the box, even if you have all of the requirements :) | Feb 20 00:14 |
DaemonFC | I think it's just a poorly executed attempt by Microsoft to distinguish Windows as a gaming platform now that lots of stuff runs as well or better on three gaming consoles and the Mac | Feb 20 00:15 |
MinceR | stuff runs on macos? | Feb 20 00:16 |
DaemonFC | superficially it's easier to say "Your PC has to be a 5.3 on the Windows Experience Index" to play this game | Feb 20 00:16 |
DaemonFC | but WEI is a terrible gauge of video game performance | Feb 20 00:16 |
DaemonFC | it's pegged to the lowest score out of all your hardware | Feb 20 00:16 |
MinceR | it also doesn't tell you what to upgrade, does it? | Feb 20 00:16 |
DaemonFC | so if your video card is an 8 and your hard disk is a 5.2, then you can't play the game according to WEI | Feb 20 00:17 |
DaemonFC | even though it would work fine | Feb 20 00:17 |
DaemonFC | :) | Feb 20 00:17 |
DaemonFC | it's just more meaningless bullshit that offers little insight into how the software will ultimately end up running | Feb 20 00:18 |
DaemonFC | but thanks to the copyright law making it illegal to return opened software, you're stuck with it | Feb 20 00:18 |
DaemonFC | win or lose | Feb 20 00:18 |
DaemonFC | that had the effect of paralyzing me whenever I went to buy any software | Feb 20 00:19 |
DaemonFC | knowing that it might not work at all and there was no taking it back :) | Feb 20 00:19 |
DaemonFC | this WEI is the most misleading thing I've seen Microsoft do in a while, and it's subtle | Feb 20 00:20 |
DaemonFC | you have PCs that don't meet the WEI score that run the software fine and PCs that far exceed the WEI score where performance is poor or it won't run at all | Feb 20 00:21 |
DaemonFC | so it's meaningless, the old way of just giving two paragraphs of baseline hardware left me less confused as to whether or not it would work | Feb 20 00:21 |
DaemonFC | trying to boil down thousands of PC components into a two digit numerical rating system is by far the most fucking stupid thing Microsoft has EVER done to "standardize" the PC | Feb 20 00:23 |
MinceR | can't you sue if your PC has a high enough WEI and yet the game does not work? | Feb 20 00:23 |
DaemonFC | nope | Feb 20 00:24 |
DaemonFC | most software EULAs say the company's liability is limited to damage to your computer caused by the software, not to exceed the purchase price of the software | Feb 20 00:24 |
DaemonFC | or other fun things like all claims have to go to an arbitrator of their choice and you give up your right to sue by running the software | Feb 20 00:24 |
DaemonFC | :) | Feb 20 00:24 |
DaemonFC | and the EULA may specify that it will be executed under the laws of a state you don't even live in | Feb 20 00:25 |
DaemonFC | So I'm going to drive 3,000 miles across the country to sue Microsoft in Washington state courts for $60? | Feb 20 00:25 |
DaemonFC | right | Feb 20 00:25 |
DaemonFC | if anyone actually read any of this shit they're agreeing to, proprietary software probably wouldn't exist because they'd be too afraid to buy it | Feb 20 00:27 |
DaemonFC | spending hundred of dollars on something that could damned well be full of bugs that never get fixed that may not even work to begin with, where the producer of the software has no liability to speak of is insane | Feb 20 00:27 |
DaemonFC | governments do it to the tune of millions of dollars every day | Feb 20 00:28 |
MinceR | nah | Feb 20 00:29 |
MinceR | people are very good at agreeing to bad deals | Feb 20 00:29 |
MinceR | even defending it | Feb 20 00:29 |
MinceR | "nah, they'd never do that!" | Feb 20 00:29 |
DaemonFC | so there's Linux distributions out there that are pointless and plenty of free software programs that don't work for me, I'm out 20 cents for a blank CD | Feb 20 00:29 |
DaemonFC | boo hoo | Feb 20 00:29 |
DaemonFC | go back to using some that do work for me | Feb 20 00:29 |
MinceR | i've heard people vigorously defend the steam EULA, for example | Feb 20 00:29 |
MinceR | and m$ EULAs, of course | Feb 20 00:29 |
DaemonFC | at least if, Debian doesn't work for me, I'm not in it to the tune of $300 | Feb 20 00:30 |
MinceR | (claiming that the worst parts of the latter are unenforceable) | Feb 20 00:30 |
MinceR | if debian doesn't work for you, you can fix it | Feb 20 00:30 |
MinceR | with winblows, you get a black box full of shit | Feb 20 00:30 |
DaemonFC | I think that the term, let the buyer beware applies with EULAs | Feb 20 00:30 |
cubezzz | I can't think of anyone who defends the Microsoft EULA unless they are Microsoft employed | Feb 20 00:30 |
DaemonFC | if you can read through a EULA and stomach it, then it's your right to accept it | Feb 20 00:30 |
DaemonFC | but it's probably not a great idea | Feb 20 00:33 |
cubezzz | even then it's iffy :) | Feb 20 00:33 |
MinceR | cubezzz: they're deluded fanboys | Feb 20 00:33 |
MinceR | believing that they have something to gain from pushing m$ crap | Feb 20 00:33 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[rrix/@rrix] plasma keyboard container's input context is kinda finicky ;*( | Feb 20 00:33 | |
DaemonFC | the only time I've seen anything good come out of Microsoft was if they HAD to improve it because of fierce competition | Feb 20 00:33 |
DaemonFC | then once the competition is gone, the product disappears or becomes bitrot | Feb 20 00:33 |
MinceR | i don't think i've ever seen anything good come out of m$ that they actually made | Feb 20 00:33 |
cubezzz | I'm hearing that even with windows 7 their are problems | Feb 20 00:33 |
cubezzz | they're | Feb 20 00:33 |
cubezzz | not that I've even bothered with it | Feb 20 00:33 |
DaemonFC | they let IE fester for 10 years and then all of a sudden, it supports all of CSS 2.1, a lot of draft CSS 3 and HTML 5, proper support for SVG, and so on so forth | Feb 20 00:33 |
cubezzz | yeah they want control | Feb 20 00:33 |
DaemonFC | they could have done it at any time, but there were no Firefox 4, Chrome 10, and Opera 11 back then | Feb 20 00:33 |
DaemonFC | so no need | Feb 20 00:33 |
MinceR | i've seen some issues with vista7 | Feb 20 00:33 |
MinceR | and heard of more | Feb 20 00:33 |
cubezzz | one customer tells me they can't turn their computer off :) | Feb 20 00:33 |
MinceR | afaik ie9 is still ages behind in standards support | Feb 20 00:33 |
cubezzz | should be interesting | Feb 20 00:33 |
MinceR | despite hype from m$ | Feb 20 00:33 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, I've taken a good look at it | Feb 20 00:33 |
DaemonFC | it's roughly on par with Firefox 4 for standards support | Feb 20 00:34 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: some of the ones where people cannot turn there computer off is bios makers should be shot. | Feb 20 00:34 |
DaemonFC | there's been a lot of back and forth bickering, but that's where it's at | Feb 20 00:34 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, I just want bios source code... | Feb 20 00:35 |
MinceR | DaemonFC: so you're saying this is a lie? http://people.mozilla.com/~prouget/ie9/ | Feb 20 00:35 |
TechrightsBot-tr | Title: IE9 & HTML5 .::. Size~: 9.55 KB | Feb 20 00:35 |
DaemonFC | Firefox 4 supports things IE 9 doesn't and vice versa, they've been nitpicking more than arguing | Feb 20 00:35 |
cubezzz | award used masm 5 though :-/ | Feb 20 00:35 |
cubezzz | not sure if they still use it | Feb 20 00:35 |
MinceR | oiaohm: i've seen winblows xp silently give up on shutdowns | Feb 20 00:35 |
MinceR | and even just plain ignoring the command | Feb 20 00:35 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, Firefox is better security-wise* and has the advantage of speed (provided you forcibly remove Microsoft's tampering) | Feb 20 00:36 |
DaemonFC | speaking of the Windows build that is | Feb 20 00:36 |
oiaohm | MinceR: Yes. background service will not die issue. | Feb 20 00:36 |
cubezzz | if it's "updating" it will wait until it's done | Feb 20 00:36 |
MinceR | i've also seen it start to "reboot" and give up half-way through shutting down applications | Feb 20 00:36 |
DaemonFC | also, Firefox has a shorter design cycle because it's not pegged to any particular OS | Feb 20 00:36 |
oiaohm | MinceR: I wrote a service for fun once for XP that simply keeps on refusing to die. | Feb 20 00:36 |
DaemonFC | so even if they're closely matched now, Firefox will one up them in 6 months | Feb 20 00:36 |
oiaohm | MinceR: the result is you cannot shut the machine down or reboot it. | Feb 20 00:36 |
DaemonFC | the next IE will be a year or 2 later | Feb 20 00:37 |
DaemonFC | IE is a kind of rolling roadblock for web developers | Feb 20 00:37 |
cubezzz | uh, pulling the plug will shut it down :) | Feb 20 00:37 |
MinceR | oiaohm: what if the user kills it from a task manager? | Feb 20 00:37 |
MinceR | or winblows fails at that too? | Feb 20 00:37 |
cubezzz | unless it's the M5 of course | Feb 20 00:37 |
oiaohm | MinceR: I was nasty. I had it also delist from the userspace task list. | Feb 20 00:37 |
DaemonFC | and Microsoft can do standards compliant mode without any risk of sites actually fixing their broken markup | Feb 20 00:38 |
oiaohm | MinceR: So only the NT kernel knew it was there. Nothing from userspace could see that it was running. | Feb 20 00:38 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, you writing malware? ;0 | Feb 20 00:38 |
DaemonFC | look how many sites invoke IE 7 mode already | Feb 20 00:38 |
DaemonFC | or are in the compatibility list for IE 6 mode | Feb 20 00:38 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: Secuirty demostrations. Of why particular things were going wrong. | Feb 20 00:38 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: NT duel table system is really really bad. | Feb 20 00:39 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, Then you have iWeb I think it was, Crapple's WYSIWYG editor, that invokes IE 7 mode in IE 8 even though IE 8 supports anything that iWeb can generate | Feb 20 00:39 |
MinceR | i've seen an iWeb site | Feb 20 00:39 |
DaemonFC | even in cases where it breaks in IE 7 mode | Feb 20 00:39 |
DaemonFC | that's comical | Feb 20 00:39 |
MinceR | it was one of the most retarded sites i've ever seen | Feb 20 00:39 |
cubezzz | most sites seem icecat/firefox friendly nowadays | Feb 20 00:39 |
MinceR | using all sorts of bloat just to produce a butt-ugly gallery | Feb 20 00:39 |
DaemonFC | Konqueror with the webkit kpart is what I'm using most lately | Feb 20 00:40 |
cubezzz | sites with rotating gifs and lots of flash are annoying :) | Feb 20 00:40 |
DaemonFC | I have Firefox 4 nightlies though | Feb 20 00:40 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: And the main reason for the duel table system was in the first place so users could not see what the kernel was doing. | Feb 20 00:40 |
MinceR | i'm mostly using firefox | Feb 20 00:40 |
DaemonFC | I don't typically fire up Firefox unless something breaks badly in a better browser | Feb 20 00:40 |
cubezzz | pfft, I compile my own (because with FC1 you have to ) | Feb 20 00:41 |
DaemonFC | Firefox supports a lot more broken IE crap that some sites like to put up | Feb 20 00:41 |
cubezzz | icecat that is | Feb 20 00:41 |
cubezzz | web masters are lazy though | Feb 20 00:42 |
MinceR | on my debian lenny vm, i just installed the official firefox under /opt | Feb 20 00:42 |
cubezzz | many many sites aren't lynx friendly, or text browser friendly | Feb 20 00:42 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: and that suxs balls for the blind. | Feb 20 00:42 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, I don't think you ever really know what's going on with windows | Feb 20 00:42 |
cubezzz | all that closed source... | Feb 20 00:42 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: Depends if you are sitting down with people who are disasmbling it. | Feb 20 00:43 |
DaemonFC | I'm not saying Firefox 4 is bad, I'm just saying there's other options that integrate better with *nix in general and KDE/GNOME/etc in specific | Feb 20 00:43 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: Mostly to work out how a rootkit or the like managed to hide. | Feb 20 00:43 |
cubezzz | not to mention flash url obfuscation... | Feb 20 00:43 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: Yes it far simpler to hide in windows than OS X or Linux | Feb 20 00:43 |
DaemonFC | no matter what platform you run Firefox on, it's basically running in an abstraction layer | Feb 20 00:44 |
DaemonFC | with some additional support for native OS features | Feb 20 00:44 |
DaemonFC | mostly Windows | Feb 20 00:44 |
MinceR | yet it still works pretty well | Feb 20 00:44 |
DaemonFC | the only thing that surprises me about Firefox is that it's not any more bloated than it is | Feb 20 00:44 |
MinceR | unlike chromium which likes to cause kernel panics, for example | Feb 20 00:45 |
oiaohm | Some of the additional support for windows only. Releate to Linux 3d drivers suxing. | Feb 20 00:45 |
MinceR | probably because their sandbox (which is setuid root) sucks ass | Feb 20 00:45 |
cubezzz | I haven't seen any panics in a while | Feb 20 00:45 |
cubezzz | but I don't really use chromium | Feb 20 00:45 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, When they fix Chatzilla in Seamonkey we might talk about me using Mozilla stuff primarily | Feb 20 00:45 |
MinceR | it kept causing them on exit | Feb 20 00:45 |
MinceR | so i stopped using it | Feb 20 00:45 |
DaemonFC | Seamonkey in general just feels a lot faster than Firefox | Feb 20 00:45 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, To be honest, I'm kind of surprised that the Firefox PPAs for Ubuntu spit stuff out that disables all the system libraries that it could be using | Feb 20 00:47 |
cubezzz | I just use good ol' xchat | Feb 20 00:47 |
MinceR | firefox has more and more extensions i'd hardly do without :> | Feb 20 00:47 |
MinceR | for irc, there's irssi :> | Feb 20 00:47 |
cubezzz | or naim or a million others :) | Feb 20 00:47 |
MinceR | (unrelated to firefox, of course) | Feb 20 00:47 |
nisshh | MinceR, i only use 3 FF extensions | Feb 20 00:48 |
cubezzz | the right tool for the job, no bloated swiss army knives with a hundred blades please | Feb 20 00:48 |
nisshh | adblock plus, fastestfox and Ubuntu Firefox mods | Feb 20 00:48 |
DaemonFC | then there's the fact that Firefox uses GTK+ stuff like file selectors | Feb 20 00:49 |
DaemonFC | so you single click on things out of muscle memory and all you've done is highlight something | Feb 20 00:49 |
DaemonFC | :) | Feb 20 00:49 |
DaemonFC | Opera can figure out what desktop it's running in and pick the right file selection dialog | Feb 20 00:50 |
MinceR | i use AdBlock Plus, Clear Text Fields, CookieSafe, DownloadHelper, Ghostery, Live HTTP headers, NoScript, RefControl, Save Complete, Taboo, Web Developer, xclear and FoxyProxy | Feb 20 00:50 |
DaemonFC | why can't Firefox? | Feb 20 00:50 |
MinceR | DaemonFC: o | Feb 20 00:51 |
MinceR | i'm used to a diversity of file selectors :> | Feb 20 00:51 |
MinceR | i even sometimes use java apps with swing file selector dialogs with the metal theme :> | Feb 20 00:51 |
DaemonFC | I just found that a neat feature in Opera | Feb 20 00:52 |
DaemonFC | how it detects what you use and mimics the surrounding environment | Feb 20 00:52 |
MinceR | i prefer letting me decide | Feb 20 00:52 |
DaemonFC | technically, Opera is better than Firefox on Linux for many users | Feb 20 00:52 |
DaemonFC | their software renderer is faster than the software renderer in Firefox | Feb 20 00:53 |
DaemonFC | which is what most Linux users get stuck with even in 4.0 | Feb 20 00:53 |
MinceR | i've heard of libreoffice royally screwing up the DE autodetection/integration job :> | Feb 20 00:53 |
cubezzz | no source code... | Feb 20 00:53 |
cubezzz | and yes, I compiled my own icecat | Feb 20 00:53 |
DaemonFC | Firefox was damaged goods from the beginning | Feb 20 00:53 |
MinceR | i did compile my own firefox once | Feb 20 00:53 |
DaemonFC | it was basically designed by AOL | Feb 20 00:53 |
MinceR | took some extra work to make it use official firefox branding though | Feb 20 00:54 |
DaemonFC | they've spent years trying to fix bad design that Netscape employees are responsible for | Feb 20 00:54 |

DaemonFC | :) | Feb 20 00:54 |
DaemonFC | even on my Windows system | Feb 20 00:54 |
MinceR | firefox might have had a bad start but it can do stuff no other browser can :> | Feb 20 00:55 |
cubezzz | I think 1999 and before it was netscape on Linux but... | Feb 20 00:55 |
DaemonFC | I don't like OOo, LibreOffice is a little better | Feb 20 00:55 |
cubezzz | mostly I used lynx in those days | Feb 20 00:55 |
DaemonFC | LibreOffice got all those performance patches from Go-OO and it still feels like I'm dragging a dead elephant just to start Writer | Feb 20 00:56 |
DaemonFC | even on a quad core with 8 gigs of RAM | Feb 20 00:56 |
DaemonFC | no excuse for this | Feb 20 00:56 |
MinceR | i mostly use GNOME Office instead | Feb 20 00:56 |
MinceR | (and LaTeX, of course) | Feb 20 00:56 |
cubezzz | bah | Feb 20 00:56 |
cubezzz | I use none of that | Feb 20 00:56 |
cubezzz | perl scripts and text files for me :) | Feb 20 00:56 |
*hemimaniac has quit (Ping timeout: 250 seconds) | Feb 20 00:56 | |
cubezzz | and awk | Feb 20 00:56 |
DaemonFC | KOffice has excellent OOXML import filter, which I require, I don't care if it exports them or not | Feb 20 00:56 |
cubezzz | well actually I do use Latex sometimes | Feb 20 00:56 |
DaemonFC | I save to ODF or PDF or HTML or something | Feb 20 00:56 |
DaemonFC | LibreOffice destroys any OOXML documents I import | Feb 20 00:57 |
DaemonFC | not destroys really, just everything is a little wrong | Feb 20 00:57 |
DaemonFC | and I have to go through and fix stuff up before I save it as ODF/PDF/HTML | Feb 20 00:57 |
MinceR | i've seen the same version of excel on the same version of windows using the same font still fuck up formatting once it was opened on another PC | Feb 20 00:58 |
DaemonFC | I send documents back to MS Office users as PDF usually so they don't try to edit it and mess up the formatting all over again | Feb 20 00:58 |
cubezzz | looking back at all my old work, it's the ascii files that survived | Feb 20 00:58 |
MinceR | i don't expect m$o crap to be portable to any extent | Feb 20 00:58 |
DaemonFC | it's not | Feb 20 00:59 |
DaemonFC | any portability they talk about means it might open in MS Office on Mac too | Feb 20 00:59 |
DaemonFC | :) | Feb 20 00:59 |
MinceR | (cells had to be resized to show all the text) | Feb 20 00:59 |
DaemonFC | they don't even support the same OOXML in Office Mac as Office Windows | Feb 20 00:59 |
DaemonFC | you really think Novell is going to hack in any decent support into OOo? | Feb 20 01:00 |
DaemonFC | I don't either? | Feb 20 01:00 |
DaemonFC | :) | Feb 20 01:00 |
MinceR | or the same OOXML as the one they've handed the specs of to Ecma | Feb 20 01:00 |
MinceR | :> | Feb 20 01:00 |
cubezzz | does Novell even exist now? | Feb 20 01:00 |
DaemonFC | they're still funding Miguel to FUD Android and praise Vista Phone 7 that his precious Mono isn't allowed on | Feb 20 01:00 |
DaemonFC | so they must | Feb 20 01:01 |
MinceR | maybe attackmate still didn't finish the acquisition | Feb 20 01:01 |
DaemonFC | the attachmate part went through | Feb 20 01:01 |
cubezzz | I'm just glad I have source code | Feb 20 01:01 |
DaemonFC | the patent sale to CPTN hasn't | Feb 20 01:01 |

oiaohm | User Product covers a few zones embeded developers wish it did not. | Feb 20 07:21 |
oiaohm | Ie where they use rom chips. gnufreex | Feb 20 07:21 |
gnufreex | Well, some people only want to take code and never give back | Feb 20 07:21 |
oiaohm | And cannot ever meet the requirements of GPLv3 of allowing person to alter it. | Feb 20 07:21 |
oiaohm | Lot of the embed developers would have been happy if the was an exception that if the binary was on a true rom chip | Feb 20 07:22 |
oiaohm | They had to hand over the code but that was it. | Feb 20 07:22 |
oiaohm | Yes Its a minor wording issue in GPLv3 that lead to embed being asked todo the impossible. | Feb 20 07:23 |
gnufreex | That would increase usage of ROM chips | Feb 20 07:23 |
oiaohm | Remember Rom chips have a downside as well. | Feb 20 07:23 |
oiaohm | Of if you have screwed up a batch they are all bricked. | Feb 20 07:23 |
oiaohm | So rom chip usage will always remain limited by sanity of costs. | Feb 20 07:24 |
gnufreex | Yeah, and security issues are immposible to fix | Feb 20 07:24 |

cubezzz | rom as in not-writable at all? | Feb 20 07:25 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: Not in cpu dia rom chips | Feb 20 07:25 |
cubezzz | ah | Feb 20 07:25 |
oiaohm | And yes it 100 percent not writable item. | Feb 20 07:25 |
cubezzz | even dvd drives on computers have flash chips | Feb 20 07:25 |
oiaohm | To be correct the word are mask-programmed ROM | Feb 20 07:26 |
cubezzz | but they are all different, rather a pain | Feb 20 07:26 |

oiaohm | Ie on and off states directly made into the silcon. | Feb 20 07:26 |
cubezzz | surface mounted I assume? | Feb 20 07:26 |
cubezzz | not socketed? | Feb 20 07:26 |
oiaohm | Can be socketed | Feb 20 07:27 |
oiaohm | But masked coded is writen once only cubezzz | Feb 20 07:27 |
oiaohm | When the chip was made. cubezzz | Feb 20 07:27 |
cubezzz | sounds like somethign to avoid | Feb 20 07:27 |
cubezzz | something | Feb 20 07:27 |
oiaohm | Yes and no. | Feb 20 07:27 |
oiaohm | You avoid it where you can. | Feb 20 07:27 |
oiaohm | but its good for allowing devices to recover from bad flash writes. | Feb 20 07:28 |
oiaohm | Or allowing flash writes when flash has been scrambled by outside interfance. | Feb 20 07:28 |
oiaohm | Ie masked rom is way more tollerent. | Feb 20 07:28 |
cubezzz | you could use an external programmer, or even another motherboard or dvd drive :) | Feb 20 07:29 |
oiaohm | Note masked rom is writen in silcon construction. | Feb 20 07:29 |
oiaohm | No extenal programmer. cubezzz | Feb 20 07:29 |
oiaohm | Default microcode inside a intel x86 chip is stored in masked rom. | Feb 20 07:30 |
cubezzz | hmm, I thought the idea behind microcode was fixing bugs | Feb 20 07:31 |
oiaohm | Note default. | Feb 20 07:31 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[gbraad/@gbraad] @rrix had not heard of it yet... but I was expecting something like this to happen. | Feb 20 07:31 | |
oiaohm | Later copy can be loaded into ram so working around bugs in chip. cubezzz | Feb 20 07:31 |
cubezzz | ah | Feb 20 07:31 |
oiaohm | Basically all the stuff so you can fire up and self repair without needing external programmers. | Feb 20 07:32 |
oiaohm | Is good to be in masked rom. cubezzz | Feb 20 07:32 |
oiaohm | Where it cannot be screwed up. | Feb 20 07:32 |
oiaohm | Even if design allows for that to be overridden by a newer copy. | Feb 20 07:32 |
cubezzz | I don't think I ever got down to that level | Feb 20 07:33 |
oiaohm | Ie some devices hold the reset button until they power up with reset button depressed. | Feb 20 07:33 |
cubezzz | I've compiled my own bios though | Feb 20 07:33 |
oiaohm | Takes you threw a full masked rom boot. | Feb 20 07:33 |
oiaohm | So any firmware flashs and the like can be fixed. | Feb 20 07:33 |
oiaohm | Without having to disasmble the device. | Feb 20 07:34 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[rrix/@rrix] @gbraad THE AP SAID SO THUS IT IS SO | Feb 20 07:34 | |
cubezzz | don't think old stuff used microcode | Feb 20 07:34 |
oiaohm | Masked roms have advantages on junk reduction to embeded device makers. | Feb 20 07:34 |
cubezzz | I've never heard the term masked rom before | Feb 20 07:36 |
amarsh04 | oiaohm... narrowing down this git bisect to stuff to do with memory compaction in the linux kernel | Feb 20 07:36 |
oiaohm | amarsh04: what issue are you suffering from? | Feb 20 07:36 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: So you have never had a silcon chip made. | Feb 20 07:37 |
amarsh04 | MIDI playback slows down when kswapd0 kicks in | Feb 20 07:37 |
cubezzz | ah, mask rom | Feb 20 07:37 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, I think mask rom may be the common term | Feb 20 07:37 |
cubezzz | no, I've never had a silicon chip made :) | Feb 20 07:38 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: mask rom is one of the common terms. | Feb 20 07:38 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: the proper term is mask-programmed ROM | Feb 20 07:38 |
cubezzz | ah I see | Feb 20 07:38 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: but mask-programmed ROM is one hell of a thing to type. So it ends up shorted to either mask rom or masked rom | Feb 20 07:38 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: Also it would be unlikely for a modern day system to contain more than 32 kb of mask rom. | Feb 20 07:40 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: Not counting microcodes of course | Feb 20 07:40 |
cubezzz | I don't really like stand-alone dvd players and the like | Feb 20 07:41 |
cubezzz | so I built an oldish computer as a player... so one can avoid blackbox syndrome | Feb 20 07:41 |
cubezzz | in fact the dvd itself is kind of obsolete | Feb 20 07:42 |
cubezzz | not sure when eeprom's came into vogue | Feb 20 07:43 |

cubezzz | I'm trying to recall when eeproms first appeared on the scence | Feb 20 07:48 |
oiaohm | Bubble memory was in used right up until eeproms appeared. | Feb 20 07:48 |
oiaohm | eeproms are cheeper to make. | Feb 20 07:48 |
oiaohm | Have higher desnity | Feb 20 07:49 |
oiaohm | but still have support for less write cycles than old Bubble memory. | Feb 20 07:49 |
oiaohm | No one has found a write cycle limit for bubble memory. | Feb 20 07:49 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, seems like we've had eeprom since the late 1970's | Feb 20 07:49 |
cubezzz | longer than I thought | Feb 20 07:49 |
cubezzz | or uv-eproms at least | Feb 20 07:50 |
oiaohm | Bios's stayed with eproms and proms | Feb 20 07:50 |
oiaohm | For a sanity reason. | Feb 20 07:50 |
oiaohm | So devices could not be bricked. | Feb 20 07:50 |
oiaohm | Early eeproms were not that dependable. | Feb 20 07:50 |
cubezzz | Intel 2816 seems like was first | Feb 20 07:50 |
cubezzz | around 1983 | Feb 20 07:50 |
oiaohm | Most Intel 2816 were dead by 1988 | Feb 20 07:51 |
oiaohm | complete dead. | Feb 20 07:51 |
cubezzz | I can't even remember using that | Feb 20 07:51 |
amarsh04 | my oldest 386 motherboard had bios in eprom - I bought a new bios to support 3.5" 1.44M floppy drives | Feb 20 07:51 |

-TRIdentica/#techrights-[rrix/@rrix] "Johnny makes love to a dummy, says, "Ain't it good to be alive?"" | Feb 20 07:52 | |
cubezzz | ah, just a rom then | Feb 20 07:53 |
oiaohm | Since they were producing in units that match what come of IBM silcon production lines. | Feb 20 07:53 |
oiaohm | And IBM though the PC was going to be a toy | Feb 20 07:53 |
cubezzz | so no point in giving out bios source code back then | Feb 20 07:53 |
oiaohm | and would never need upgrade. | Feb 20 07:53 |
oiaohm | How wrong they were. | Feb 20 07:53 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, rare is the computer that lasts more than 10 years in production | Feb 20 07:53 |
oiaohm | IBM was doing eproms in there mainframes of the time of the IBM PC. | Feb 20 07:54 |
cubezzz | I think commodore 64 might have though | Feb 20 07:54 |
oiaohm | Since those many require upgrades in there lifespan. | Feb 20 07:54 |
oiaohm | IBM really got thing badly wrong with the PC. | Feb 20 07:54 |
cubezzz | amarsh04, hope it wasn't too expensive :) | Feb 20 07:54 |
oiaohm | The PC was mostly built from parts they had that were now oblosete to go into mainframes at the time. | Feb 20 07:54 |
oiaohm | Problem with this is when someone went to clone the PC. | Feb 20 07:55 |
oiaohm | Only thing that was unique was the rom chip. | Feb 20 07:55 |

DaemonFC | KWin wants OpenGL 2.1 support as of KDE 4.6 | Feb 20 09:19 |

-TRIdentica/#techrights-[laurelrusswurm/@laurelrusswurm] @thistleweb good point ;) | Feb 20 09:19 | |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, They're considering using OpenGL 3 in KDE 4.7 | Feb 20 09:19 |
DaemonFC | but whether they do or not depends largely on where the free drivers are at | Feb 20 09:20 |
DaemonFC | and they'd have to blacklist a lot of plug-ins for chipsets that aren't hardware capable | Feb 20 09:20 |
DaemonFC | :) | Feb 20 09:20 |
DaemonFC | you still may get basic compositing support even if your driver or chipset aren't capable of running every plug-in | Feb 20 09:21 |
DaemonFC | they could do it now really, just because a driver reports it's only OpenGL 2.1 capable doesn't mean it doesn't support a lot of OpenGL 3 extensions | Feb 20 09:23 |
DaemonFC | they should probably base their feature set on what Gallium3d can currently do | Feb 20 09:24 |
DaemonFC | and tell people using classic Mesa to use Gallium instead | Feb 20 09:24 |
DaemonFC | glxinfo on my system reports a LOT more supported GL extensions with Gallium than with Mesa | Feb 20 09:25 |

DaemonFC | he could use a lot of OpenGL 3 features even if not all the free drivers support OpenGL 3 in its entirety | Feb 20 09:32 |
DaemonFC | the level of OpenGL 3 support in drivers using Gallium3d is more or less uniform | Feb 20 09:32 |

DaemonFC | Gallium3d in many cases is much slower than the proprietary drivers, but it is also a lot faster than classic Mesa, which already runs desktop effects at a good speed | Feb 20 09:36 |
DaemonFC | I find Gallium3d intriguing even if it is currently a little slow and buggy | Feb 20 09:36 |

dyfet | I maintain a number of probably obscure packages that are in the GNU project... | Feb 20 13:30 |

gnufreex | I don't see it on front page | Feb 20 13:36 |
dyfet | My primary concern is in continuing the freedom of what we do, not in the popularity of our packages | Feb 20 13:38 |
gnufreex | Popularity can help... but it sometimes harm also. | Feb 20 13:39 |
dyfet | there is nothing wrong with popularity, so long as one does not choose to compromise freedom to try and achieve it | Feb 20 13:40 |
gnufreex | Exactly | Feb 20 13:40 |
gnufreex | but once something is popular, some will try to "monetize" it | Feb 20 13:40 |
gnufreex | Now, it depends how | Feb 20 13:41 |
dyfet | there is nothing wrong with that either, again so long as freedom is not compromised in the process | Feb 20 13:41 |
gnufreex | That is why i say "depends how" | Feb 20 13:41 |

schestowitz | tacone: not rubel? | Feb 20 22:08 |
sebsebseb | tacone: Gnome paching :( and stuff like Ubuntu One to try and lock people in to that, and Ubuntu Software Centre is okish I guess, but not realy for expereinced users, Synaptic :) apt-get install :) | Feb 20 22:08 |
tacone | i believe google work on android is much better than work on chrome os | Feb 20 22:09 |
schestowitz | Chrome OS got obscure | Feb 20 22:09 |
tacone | yes stupid paper-cut patching. | Feb 20 22:09 |
schestowitz | i doubt they have much hope for it | Feb 20 22:09 |
schestowitz | Another "beta" non-search project | Feb 20 22:09 |
sebsebseb | tacone: then Unity is kind of intereting, but not really for me, makes their Gnome patching some of them, in to something sort of ok, because now it's not just Gnome patching it's a proper alternative interface, but they should have gone with Gnome Shell by default really for the desktp edition of 11.04 :) not Unity | Feb 20 22:09 |
tacone | they're increasing the delta for the sake of it | Feb 20 22:09 |
sebsebseb | the delta? | Feb 20 22:09 |
sebsebseb | what you mean? | Feb 20 22:09 |
schestowitz | But when they get something right, they usually hit jackpot, e.g. gmail, android, search | Feb 20 22:09 |
tacone | delta = patches quantity | Feb 20 22:10 |
sebsebseb | oh? | Feb 20 22:10 |
sebsebseb | yeah they are doing their own thing a lot more now, and a lot of it is sucky really | Feb 20 22:10 |
sebsebseb | most users have no idea | Feb 20 22:10 |
tacone | unity feels pretty bad to me, in the video, while gnome 3 is actually interesting even if not my kind of thing | Feb 20 22:10 |
schestowitz | Delta is the diffs | Feb 20 22:10 |
sebsebseb | and most of the sucky stuff, is aimed at new users as well, the average computer user, hmm | Feb 20 22:10 |
tacone | tipical papercut is patch empathy (IM) to remove the status icon, because they have their own notification system | Feb 20 22:11 |
tacone | but they just remove it without obviously allowing an option to bring it back | Feb 20 22:11 |
sebsebseb | tacone: yeah a lot of that, removing notification icons, for their application indicaters | Feb 20 22:11 |
schestowitz | If Debian has delta like Red Hat (maybe it has analogous things), it'll be funny to see how Ubuntu can delta-fy Debian... empty packets :-) | Feb 20 22:11 |
tacone | as a result i don't use empathy | Feb 20 22:11 |
tacone | or the stupid monochrome icons, with the result of increasing the work of everybody | Feb 20 22:11 |
tacone | devs have to create more icons | Feb 20 22:12 |
tacone | consistency is lost very often | Feb 20 22:12 |
tacone | i understand their reason, but i'd rather have done more useful things | Feb 20 22:12 |
sebsebseb | tacone: ok and back in 9.04, the shut down and log out, removed from system menu, for shut down and log out in 10.04 | Feb 20 22:13 |
tacone | i think my phone has more settings options than ubuntu | Feb 20 22:13 |
sebsebseb | tacone: ,but then, the automatic shut down feature after a minute, that I loved when it was introduced in 8.10, which is realy a upstream Gnome feature :) | Feb 20 22:13 |
sebsebseb | tacone: well they remove it in 10.04, for lame, do you really want to shut down or re start messages, that are there when the patches for shut down on top right are enabled | Feb 20 22:13 |
tacone | sebsebseb: it has been a long time i say: wanna know next ubuntu features ? read Fedora's roadmap :) | Feb 20 22:13 |
sebsebseb | tacone: then I found that with Ubuntu 10.04, even after customising and removing loads of these patches, things still weren't quite the same as before with Ubuntu, altough that was partly also, because of Grub 2 and GDM 2 | Feb 20 22:14 |
tacone | i tried to post in ayatana or on my blog, but they seem to imply i'm just yet another change resister | Feb 20 22:14 |
sebsebseb | ,but yeah not even the old theme, would quite do it | Feb 20 22:14 |
sebsebseb | it just didn't feel right | Feb 20 22:14 |
sebsebseb | tacone: anyway yeah the 10.04 themes, I didn't like those enough and uh, 10.04 ended up being quite a pointless upgrade | Feb 20 22:15 |
sebsebseb | except for a KDM screen that looked nicer by default hmm | Feb 20 22:15 |
tacone | they're apparently trying to make it pretty right now, which is quite pointless imho | Feb 20 22:15 |
tacone | the real thing we need is an html/css like thing. | Feb 20 22:15 |
sebsebseb | tacone: yeah ever since Ayatana started doing stuff, Ubuntu started going down hill it seems, for experienced users I mean such as myself, and I guess you as well | Feb 20 22:16 |
sebsebseb | for many expereinced users | Feb 20 22:16 |
tacone | yes it feels dumbed down. problem is you have to mess in the command line to get what you want. that's not nice for the rest of the world | Feb 20 22:16 |
sebsebseb | they want to compete against the Mac OS X interface, try and make something better, and win the masses over | Feb 20 22:16 |
sebsebseb | that's the idea of Ubuntu now | Feb 20 22:17 |
sebsebseb | even Mark Shuttleworth made it clear, about the competing against Mac OS X | Feb 20 22:17 |
sebsebseb | quite awhiel ago now | Feb 20 22:17 |
sebsebseb | that also means got to have the stupid social networking features built in and such, uh | Feb 20 22:17 |

sebsebseb | tacone: did you read something about the Banshee in Ubuntu 11.04 | Feb 20 22:18 |
sebsebseb | and how | Feb 20 22:18 |
tacone | ubuntu can't compete with macosx, if it even gets to MacOS will be dead and replaced by iOs | Feb 20 22:18 |
sebsebseb | because it has the amazon store | Feb 20 22:18 |
sebsebseb | Canonical gave the Banshee develovers two options | Feb 20 22:19 |
sebsebseb | either remove the Amazon store, or they take 75% of the money, because it would donate to Gnome | Feb 20 22:19 |

sebsebseb | tacone: as for Unity, very important that other distro's provide it as well I think as an option, I mean if they want a lot of users in the future | Feb 20 22:23 |
sebsebseb | tacone: well it's being worked on for Fedora as an option, but also OpenSuse | Feb 20 22:23 |
sebsebseb | however there is the Canonical copyright assignments issue | Feb 20 22:23 |
tacone | schestowitz wikileaks is supposed to redact documents only to avoid threatened people to be killed, right ? | Feb 20 22:24 |
sebsebseb | most/many developers of other distro's won't just want to contribute code to it, whilst it has that | Feb 20 22:24 |
sebsebseb | and so on | Feb 20 22:24 |
sebsebseb | oh and if neassrey other developers of other distro's can fork Unity | Feb 20 22:24 |
schestowitz | No | Feb 20 22:24 |

schestowitz | US state dept/whatever: blah blah life at risk | Feb 20 22:24 |
sebsebseb | however if Canonical play upstream properly, there shoudn't need to be a fork of Unity | Feb 20 22:24 |
schestowitz | Wikileaks: we're redacting | Feb 20 22:24 |
tacone | you guess who were the 2 people ? | Feb 20 22:25 |
schestowitz | False corollary: redacting cables saves lives | Feb 20 22:25 |
tacone | first name was a US senator | Feb 20 22:25 |
*sebsebseb might put Ubuntu 11.04 alpha 3 on next month, and run it for quite a while, hmm | Feb 20 22:25 | |
tacone | second name was Gianni Letta, de-facto Berlusconi vice. | Feb 20 22:25 |
sebsebseb | some little issues in PC Linux OS that are getting at me, plus I am getting a bit bored of this distro now | Feb 20 22:25 |
tacone | interesting uh ? | Feb 20 22:26 |
schestowitz | Well, they are assassination targets too... public figures | Feb 20 22:26 |
Faither | sebsebseb: install archlinux ^^ | Feb 20 22:26 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[lxoliva/@lxoliva] @fabsh isn't freedom the ultimate feature? | Feb 20 22:26 | |
tacone | schestowitz LOL that cable was about Berlusconi | Feb 20 22:26 |
sebsebseb | Faither: probably not, it takes ages to set up as far as I know | Feb 20 22:26 |
tacone | berlusconi is said to have bounds with mafia but nobody would kill for the content of that document | Feb 20 22:26 |
sebsebseb | Faither: plus it would help to know commands and such better for that one I guess | Feb 20 22:26 |
schestowitz | tacone: LOL | Feb 20 22:27 |
sebsebseb | Faither: I am thinking Fedora 15 in May or whenever Virtualbox is ready for it, well maybe it will have in repo :D well Fedora 14 didn't | Feb 20 22:27 |
schestowitz | tacone: yeah... | Feb 20 22:27 |
schestowitz | But like I said, it's not about life-saving | Feb 20 22:27 |
schestowitz | it's one of those myths | Feb 20 22:27 |
sebsebseb | as for Mageia well nice distro to follow, but I guess i'll only really or mainly only really run it in a virtual machine for now, untill it becomes something more proper, hopefuly starting with their second release | Feb 20 22:27 |
tacone | what's that about ? | Feb 20 22:27 |

sebsebseb | Faither: in a way I should do somethimg more complex, but | Feb 20 22:28 |
sebsebseb | Faither: with newbie distro's it doesnt' take much to fix most problems you know | Feb 20 22:28 |
Faither | sebsebseb: I found myself always customizing | Feb 20 22:28 |
nisshh | Faither, your an Arch user? | Feb 20 22:28 |
Faither | nisshh: yes | Feb 20 22:29 |
nisshh | cool | Feb 20 22:29 |
nisshh | i have tried arch | Feb 20 22:29 |
nisshh | it very nice | Feb 20 22:29 |
sebsebseb | Faither: a guy did help me set up Arch in a vm uh some time last year I guess it was, basic set up, and then I try to boot it, but nope woudn't work, the kernel didn't like Virtualbox or whatever | Feb 20 22:29 |
nisshh | its* | Feb 20 22:29 |
tacone | sebsebseb: I don't think the world will ever give a dime about Canonical's Unity | Feb 20 22:29 |
sebsebseb | tacone: I think it will get pretty popular, since the most used Desktop Linu distro at the moment Ubuntu, and by a long way, will be using it by default | Feb 20 22:29 |
tacone | a GUI is a work much bigger than them. they won't get far with it. | Feb 20 22:29 |
sebsebseb | tacone: so newbies will get used to Unity, and expect it, when they try other distro's | Feb 20 22:29 |
Faither | nisshh: i really like arch | Feb 20 22:30 |
nisshh | Faither, i tried both Arch and Gentoo last year, have to say, while both were really good, Arch was nicer imo | Feb 20 22:30 |
sebsebseb | tacone: some or many of them, will ask if the other distro's can have Unity | Feb 20 22:30 |
nisshh | yah | Feb 20 22:30 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: yah at me? | Feb 20 22:30 |
tacone | sad to say, Shuttleworth seems to be simply building a customized shell for himself. | Feb 20 22:30 |
nisshh | sebsebseb, no, at faither | Feb 20 22:30 |
sebsebseb | tacone: Unity is being made for Ubuntu, and other distro's can use like I said earlier, but the CA issue | Feb 20 22:30 |
Faither | nisshh: you can run arch in 'gentoo'-mode if you want to with the ABS | Feb 20 22:31 |
sebsebseb | tacone: yep Canonical aren't playing upstream properly | Feb 20 22:31 |
sebsebseb | tacone: as far as I know Gnome can't even adopt Unity, whilst it has CA | Feb 20 22:31 |
nisshh | Faither, yeah, i really liked emerge on Gentoo tbh, but Arch overall was nicer to use | Feb 20 22:31 |
sebsebseb | tacone: also good luck trying to get the truth about Unity from Ubuntu people such as Jono Bacon and Jorge Castro, who are about hyping up Unity | Feb 20 22:31 |
nisshh | Faither, and the Arch docs are so much nicer | Feb 20 22:32 |
nisshh | the gentoo docs are a bit of a mess, i had to get a gentoo user to help me find the right install docs | Feb 20 22:32 |
tacone | hyping Unity is their work. | Feb 20 22:32 |
Faither | nisshh: the entire community around arch is | Feb 20 22:32 |
tacone | Castro was also hyping mono over dropbox iirc | Feb 20 22:32 |
sebsebseb | tacone: if Unity becomes pouplar enough though, which is likely, if we like it or not, other distro's that want to also have a chance at being popular, will have to provide it optionally in their repo's at least | Feb 20 22:32 |
nisshh | Faither, is a mess or nicer? | Feb 20 22:33 |
sebsebseb | tacone: I personally do think though, that no other distro should ever use Unity by default, unless maybe Canonical play upstream properly, so yep sort out the copyright assignment issues | Feb 20 22:33 |
Faither | nisshh: it's nice ^^ | Feb 20 22:33 |
tacone | iFolder, and that didn't get anywhere | Feb 20 22:33 |
nisshh | Faither, yeah | Feb 20 22:33 |
tacone | problem with unity is it doesn't have a point | Feb 20 22:33 |
sebsebseb | tacone: and it's very important that, most distro's that do Gnome, do Gnome 3 and Gnome Shell by default, when what I just mentioned, hasn't happended | Feb 20 22:33 |
sebsebseb | tacone: it does have a point, to make an alternative interface, that is more suitable for the masses | Feb 20 22:34 |
sebsebseb | hi nisshh by the way, so up early or awake late? | Feb 20 22:34 |
tacone | nope the real point is to build a finger friendly interface | Feb 20 22:34 |
tacone | but they're already late with it. | Feb 20 22:34 |
nisshh | sebsebseb, neither really, woke up at 9pm and been awake since :) | Feb 20 22:35 |
nisshh | my sleep cycle is screwed | Feb 20 22:35 |
tacone | ubuntu was hoping to become standard the facto for tablets and alike | Feb 20 22:35 |
tacone | but tablets ship android right now, for good reasons. | Feb 20 22:35 |
tacone | why should they want an OS with no real battery optimization whatsoever ? | Feb 20 22:36 |
sebsebseb | From my trying of Unity on my desktop computer in Ubuntu 10.10 in Ubuntu and Lubuntu, it was alright, sort of impressive in a way, and in other ways it wasn't that good at all really. Then my trying of Unity in Ubuntu 11.04 apha 1 well that sucked, since that was the start of Unity being re done with Compiz instead of Mutter. Then I would have done Unity with Ubuntu 11.04 alpha 2, but nope since Nivida graphics card, and NIvida didn't have | Feb 20 22:36 |
sebsebseb | a driver yet for the new Xorg. | Feb 20 22:36 |
tacone | with notification that takes up screen estate in exchange for nothing ? | Feb 20 22:36 |
tacone | so you like unity ? | Feb 20 22:36 |
sebsebseb | I am thinking about maybe putting Ubuntu 11.04 alpha 3, and maybe even it as in updating it all the way to the final of Ubuntu 11.04, but not quite sure yet | Feb 20 22:37 |
sebsebseb | why? | Feb 20 22:37 |
sebsebseb | well | Feb 20 22:38 |
sebsebseb | Unity | Feb 20 22:38 |
sebsebseb | of course | Feb 20 22:38 |
tacone | i'll give it a shot then, someday | Feb 20 22:38 |
tacone | on the paper, gnome3 looks far more impressive for me | Feb 20 22:38 |
sebsebseb | altough on the other hand maybe I should try development versiosn of Fedora on here with Gnome Shell, actsual pshyicall install, not Live CD's which I haven't done yet, Live CD/DVD where apaprnatly Gnome Shell may run now on my hardware, not tried these yet | Feb 20 22:38 |
tacone | gnome folks have more experience on UI's i think | Feb 20 22:38 |
sebsebseb | I mean where it may run on my hardware without needing propritary driver :) | Feb 20 22:38 |
sebsebseb | tacone: indeed they do | Feb 20 22:38 |
Faither | gn | Feb 20 22:38 |
sebsebseb | anyway if I do what I am saying when it comes to Ubuntu 11.04 and trying Unity all the way from alpha 3 untill the final of Ubuntu 11.04, I may kind of hate myself at the time heh heh | Feb 20 22:38 |
*Faither has quit (Remote host closed the connection) | Feb 20 22:38 | |
tacone | theoretically gnome3 should ship some plugin system in the future. | Feb 20 22:38 |
nisshh | sebsebseb, the thing i hate about Unity is that they made it so mac-like, but keep denying that its mac-like at all | Feb 20 22:38 |
nisshh | and they keep calling the dock the launcher instead | Feb 20 22:39 |
sebsebseb | on the other hand, maybe I should just do, Ubuntu 11.04 alpha 3, in a virtual machine, and carry on with my little minor PC Linux OS issues and such | Feb 20 22:39 |
nisshh | when its clearly a dock | Feb 20 22:39 |
sebsebseb | hmm | Feb 20 22:39 |
sebsebseb | I am not sure what I am going to be running and when exactly this year on this computer, I just have to wait untill the times, and make my mind up then | Feb 20 22:39 |

tacone | they don't solve problems. | Feb 20 22:40 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: and trying to get truth's out of them, when it comes to that kind of thing, I mean the two guys I mentioned earlier, the second in particular, well that can annoy them | Feb 20 22:40 |
nisshh | sebsebseb, yeah, there is that, one thing i would like to see is it not be Ubuntu-only, they should design it so Unity can be used on any/most distros | Feb 20 22:40 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: well it is kind of now, except other distro's have to patch it a bit into their distro or something, and then the CA thing | Feb 20 22:41 |
nisshh | sebsebseb, well, they are promoter's, thats all they are good at, tbh | Feb 20 22:41 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[lxoliva/@lxoliva] @fabsh what convenience does Fedora sacrifice for software freedom?!? patented *Free* Software is left out because Red Hat says so | Feb 20 22:41 | |
sebsebseb | nisshh: well one time in a channel not that long ago, I started saying something to a guy about Unity, and CA and so on, and Jorge saw it, and got quite annoyed at me | Feb 20 22:41 |
nisshh | sebsebseb, the CA thing? | Feb 20 22:41 |
nisshh | yeah | Feb 20 22:42 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: yep if want to contribute to Unity, got to accept their copyright assignments agreement, and then Canonical own all the rights to that code basicalley | Feb 20 22:42 |
tacone | he has the right to be annoyed and you have the right to not care about that | Feb 20 22:42 |
nisshh | sebsebseb, seriously? | Feb 20 22:42 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[lxoliva/@lxoliva] @evan that's assuming USA wanted to Free the Iraqi people. looks like all they wanted was the oil, and waiting wouldn't have done | Feb 20 22:43 | |
nisshh | so its FOSS code, but can you can only contribute under a CA agreement? | Feb 20 22:43 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: also there are a few more recent links on omgubuntu.co.uk where some Jeff guy who has been trying to get it into Fedora as an option with the main guy, was trying to get more truths' about Unity and the CA and so on | Feb 20 22:43 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: even had Jono replying here and there, but yeah didn't go that well | Feb 20 22:43 |
nisshh | yeah | Feb 20 22:43 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: and yes as far as I know from what I have read and so on, to contribute back to Unity, the programmer just indeed accept Canonica's copyright assignment agreement | Feb 20 22:44 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: and then Canonical can do pretty much whatever they want with that code | Feb 20 22:44 |
nisshh | sebsebseb, i guess canonical are sort of making their own interface and saying "no, this is our interface, if you want it, you can go to hell" | Feb 20 22:44 |
sebsebseb | oh Free Software Foundation has CA as well, but we can trust them, to not do bad with the code | Feb 20 22:44 |
sebsebseb | Canonical on the other hand well no not quite | Feb 20 22:44 |
sebsebseb | Canonical is a for profit company at the end of the day for a start | Feb 20 22:44 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[qu1j0t3/@qu1j0t3] .@evan Cost of #Iraq attack estimated $3 trillion and upwards (depending how far ahead you want to look) | Feb 20 22:44 | |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[qu1j0t3/@qu1j0t3] @lxoliva it never was about the Iraqi people one iota. If it had been, somebody might have thought twice before killing a million of them. | Feb 20 22:44 | |
nisshh | yeah | Feb 20 22:44 |
sebsebseb | plus Launchpad used to be closed source, and something else is still cloed source of Canonical's and so on | Feb 20 22:44 |
nisshh | sebsebseb, so the Unity API is not public domain then? | Feb 20 22:45 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: so yeah ok Canonical may have helped Fedora and OpenSuse provide to provide it as options for their distro's, but as far as I know, none of these developers have contributed any code back to Unity, because of the CA | Feb 20 22:45 |
tacone | CA is not a big deal i think | Feb 20 22:45 |
nisshh | tacone, how so? | Feb 20 22:45 |
tacone | still, better not to have it | Feb 20 22:45 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: Unity used to use or still does, quite a few things that aren't upstream or whatever | Feb 20 22:46 |
nisshh | sebsebseb, what kind of stuff? | Feb 20 22:46 |
tacone | CA give canonical the right to close the source at any point. but then a fork would happen. | Feb 20 22:46 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: so Canonical had been like helping Fedora and OpenSuse get round this or whatever, also the Fedora guy said there was something that needed to be accepeted upstream, before it could be provided for Fedora as an option | Feb 20 22:46 |
nisshh | tacone, ah, i see | Feb 20 22:46 |
tacone | not that that is good, but it's still no big deal | Feb 20 22:46 |
sebsebseb | tacone: it is a big deal | Feb 20 22:47 |

tacone | i can see a dev to frustrated if their code gets closed. | Feb 20 22:47 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: if they drop the CA or change it a bit or whatever, other distros will provide it easier and contribute code even I guess | Feb 20 22:48 |
nisshh | yeah | Feb 20 22:48 |
tacone | schestowitz: WL sounds like a US tactic to free itself a little bit from the pressure of other parts of America | Feb 20 22:48 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: anyway glibc or something, something to do with that, needed accepting upstream | Feb 20 22:48 |
sebsebseb | before Fedora could provide Unity in their repos optinalley | Feb 20 22:48 |
nisshh | ah, must be a patch for glibc or something | Feb 20 22:49 |

[Sunday 20 Feb 2011] [23:00:07] <nisshh>sebsebseb, i guess i was all pro-ubuntu when i first started using it, then the shine wore off, then people started telling me all this bad stuff | ||
[Sunday 20 Feb 2011] [23:00:07] <MinceR>it's not your fault, sebsebseb | ||
[Sunday 20 Feb 2011] [23:00:07] <MinceR>it did start off promising | ||
[Sunday 20 Feb 2011] [23:00:07] <MinceR>it was good for a while | ||
[Sunday 20 Feb 2011] [23:00:07] <sebsebseb>MinceR: yeah 8.10 the last properly good version of Ubuntu really | ||
[Sunday 20 Feb 2011] [23:00:14] <sebsebseb>and 9.04 was good as well, except for the patch on top right for shut down | ||

sebsebseb | nisshh: I don't hate Windows, oh sure I dislike it at times, when I am forced to use it, but I can keep Windows secure enough online, I don't hate Windows | Feb 20 23:04 |
tacone | enough money to auto-sustain, of course. | Feb 20 23:04 |
sebsebseb | nisshh: most of the Ubuntu users seem to hate/dislike it though | Feb 20 23:04 |
sebsebseb | anyway looking at Ubuntu | Feb 20 23:04 |
sebsebseb | well | Feb 20 23:04 |
tacone | i'm just happy not to have to use osx anymore | Feb 20 23:04 |
sebsebseb | I am glad really more now days, that Windows is the most used OS in the wordl | Feb 20 23:04 |
sebsebseb | not Ubuntu :) | Feb 20 23:04 |
nisshh | yeah | Feb 20 23:04 |
sebsebseb | yeah looking at how things are now with Ubuntu | Feb 20 23:05 |
sebsebseb | I am quite glad, that Windows has most market share on the desktop | Feb 20 23:05 |
sebsebseb | with Mac OS X in second place I guess even | Feb 20 23:05 |
nisshh | sebsebseb, i submitted my app for "review" nearly 6 months ago, it hasnt been touched since | Feb 20 23:05 |
sebsebseb | I mean no distro is ready for the masses really, right now | Feb 20 23:05 |
sebsebseb | come on other distro's :) let's become that, become better than Ubuntu, gain more users, and :) | Feb 20 23:05 |
nisshh | and they claimed it was the fastest way to get my app into the repos | Feb 20 23:05 |
