speexbTniPA | Of course, Apple has problems, but there are areas of common ground | Mar 10 03:10 |
oiaohm | So most key thing is to focus on forcing webm up. | Mar 10 03:10 |
speexbTniPA | but to make their proffit from mpeg and quicktime patents (in NAFTA zone) they have to eliminate flash | Mar 10 03:10 |

oiaohm | As time goes on Firefox 4 has webm current chrome has. That is about 50 percent + of the market without flash. | Mar 10 03:18 |
speexbTniPA | not so equal, flash has more malware potential and is locked to a few platforms | Mar 10 03:36 |

*Daemonfc thinks he will ride the radeon wave | Mar 10 11:58 | |
Daemonfc | one thing that really stands out is that if radeon manages to hang X, this isn't normally a kernel panic thrown in as a bonus | Mar 10 11:59 |
Daemonfc | not so with FGLRX | Mar 10 11:59 |
Daemonfc | switch to tty1, kill X, switch to tty7, startx | Mar 10 12:00 |
Daemonfc | whereas FGLRX leaves the user holding the power button until the system shuts off and the file system might not have allocated all outstanding writes | Mar 10 12:00 |

Daemonfc | which as far as software rendering goes, llvmpipe is fantastic | Mar 10 12:10 |
Daemonfc | you're talking at least double the speed of Mesa's classic software rendering | Mar 10 12:10 |
Daemonfc | 3dfx is usable with Compiz and some basic 3d games, even to this day | Mar 10 12:11 |

abeNd-org | that mathcoprocessor stuff? | Mar 10 12:19 |
Daemonfc | well, you're thinking, just plug the 487 in, won't work, not pin compatible with the 486 slot, and it won't work by itself if the main slot is empty | Mar 10 12:20 |
cubexyz | well I think 8086 was different | Mar 10 12:20 |
Daemonfc | Intel hasn't changed much | Mar 10 12:20 |
Daemonfc | yes, up until and including 387, the co-processor was actually a co-processor | Mar 10 12:20 |

Daemonfc | or having artifacts and random crap draw to the screen | Mar 10 14:55 |
Daemonfc | Compiz developers some time ago recommended ditching nvidia for nouveau | Mar 10 14:55 |
Daemonfc | proprietary drivers are fast, until they get around to panicking the kernel, freezing X, drawing weird shit to the screen, make your Wine apps malfunction in bizarre ways and breaking into jono's apartment to steal his lunch, use the toilet, and not flush | Mar 10 14:57 |

Daemonfc | are you going to dump proprietary driver users to X and say good luck with that? | Mar 10 15:01 |
Daemonfc | proprietary drivers = third world Ubuntu experience since they can't use Wayland | Mar 10 15:01 |
Daemonfc | I figure that was the real goal in using Compiz in Unity | Mar 10 15:01 |
Daemonfc | mutter does not play nice with crap drivers | Mar 10 15:02 |
Daemonfc | whereas Compiz is full of hacks and work arounds | Mar 10 15:02 |
Daemonfc | hiding the problems in the users system is not a solution, it's a bandage | Mar 10 15:03 |
Daemonfc | eventually the hacks cause their own problems | Mar 10 15:03 |
MinceR | i thought the diabolical master plan involved mono | Mar 10 15:03 |
Daemonfc | you should really get the users thinking about what else may be wrong with the binary drivers | Mar 10 15:03 |

Daemonfc | ATI still overwrites libGL but they undo the damage when you uninstall the driver | Mar 10 15:05 |
Daemonfc | Nvidia not only doesn't fix their mess when they leave, they take a wrecking ball to your X.org/Mesa | Mar 10 15:06 |
Daemonfc | basically they sabotage your system so that removing their driver means you can't use a competing one later | Mar 10 15:06 |
Daemonfc | not without fixing a lot of files they overwrote | Mar 10 15:07 |
Daemonfc | I don't like software that barges in and decides that they own my system now | Mar 10 15:07 |
MinceR | is there some script or whatever that turns an arbitrary nvidia binary driver installer into a well-behaved package? | Mar 10 15:08 |

DaemonFC | Declare the Fusion open source driver dead | Mar 10 18:02 |
DaemonFC | Update: Ubuntu just doesn't ship the firmware | Mar 10 18:02 |
DaemonFC | oops | Mar 10 18:02 |
DaemonFC | what a retard | Mar 10 18:02 |
DaemonFC | the Fusion E-350 has always worked on Fedora 14 | Mar 10 18:03 |
DaemonFC | all he would have to do to see this was a deficiency in Ubuntu is boot a Fedora CD | Mar 10 18:03 |
DaemonFC | or go grab the firmware himself and stick it in where Ubuntu's kernel would load it | Mar 10 18:03 |
DaemonFC | shock jockeys will do or say anything to get attention | Mar 10 18:04 |
DaemonFC | that way more people load more of his advertising | Mar 10 18:04 |
DaemonFC | if the E-350 isn't working in Ubuntu, go ask...jono why they decided to fuck over everyone with the device | Mar 10 18:05 |
DaemonFC | the device's driver is as stable | Mar 10 18:05 |
oiaohm | I have firmware for a wireless card that refused to load under Ubuntu | Mar 10 18:06 |
oiaohm | And releated. | Mar 10 18:06 |
oiaohm | But any non related distribution to Ubuntu works it perfectly. | Mar 10 18:06 |
DaemonFC | I build my own kernels, I don't trust Ubuntu's kernel any further than I could throw jono | Mar 10 18:06 |
DaemonFC | B-) | Mar 10 18:06 |
DaemonFC | every time I hit a kernel bug on an Ubuntu system, it turns out to be one of their broken patches that caused it | Mar 10 18:07 |
oiaohm | Failure to work with upstream. | Mar 10 18:07 |
oiaohm | The pain will just keep on increase. | Mar 10 18:07 |
DaemonFC | their kernel is already an 11 MB diff patch against mainline | Mar 10 18:08 |
DaemonFC | that can't be good | Mar 10 18:08 |
oiaohm | Intersting that firefox lived threw the first day of pwn2own but IE did not. | Mar 10 18:08 |
DaemonFC | why is that interesting? | Mar 10 18:08 |
DaemonFC | low hanging fruit | Mar 10 18:08 |
oiaohm | Yes firefox is lacking a sandbox so in theory should be a softer target. | Mar 10 18:08 |
DaemonFC | it's not that Firefox is secure | Mar 10 18:08 |
DaemonFC | it's that IE is less secure | Mar 10 18:08 |
oiaohm | It still proves that IE build teams are still incompetent. | Mar 10 18:09 |
DaemonFC | what makes me laugh is how Crapple always rushes out a bazillion security patches ahead of Pwn2Own and they always get taken down first anyway | Mar 10 18:09 |
DaemonFC | the lack of security in OS X is mind boggling | Mar 10 18:09 |
DaemonFC | it gets taken down faster than Windows | Mar 10 18:10 |
oiaohm | No. The extra money on the table helps. | Mar 10 18:10 |
oiaohm | Funny enough chrome did not even get tested the first day. DaemonFC | Mar 10 18:10 |
DaemonFC | why bother? | Mar 10 18:10 |
oiaohm | The person who was planing on attacking did not even turn up. | Mar 10 18:10 |

DaemonFC | *Safari | Mar 10 18:11 |
oiaohm | Really I don't know why you would both going to pwn2own in the first place. | Mar 10 18:11 |
DaemonFC | why go after the only browser with a real security model? | Mar 10 18:11 |
oiaohm | The number of bugs you need to win you most like make more momey with firefox and chrome report them straight up. | Mar 10 18:11 |

oiaohm | then be albe to by a device as new never touched by anyone else who is majorally evil. | Mar 10 18:12 |
DaemonFC | yeah, Google and Firefox have some tempting bug bounties | Mar 10 18:12 |
DaemonFC | I like Chromium for a secure browser at this point | Mar 10 18:12 |
GoForbes28 | What do you think Glyn and Thistle would say if I suggest that I host TechBytes this week? | Mar 10 18:12 |
GoForbes28 | I think thoughts towards questionable sanity? | Mar 10 18:12 |
DaemonFC | I don't know why I go to lengths to keep AppArmor working | Mar 10 18:13 |
DaemonFC | it usually just stops me from doing something I need to do | Mar 10 18:13 |
GoForbes28 | I would use SRWare Iron, just for peace of mind | Mar 10 18:13 |
oiaohm | DaemonFC: Really I want Firefox vs Chrome | Mar 10 18:13 |
oiaohm | A single browser at the top allows them to get lazy. | Mar 10 18:14 |
DaemonFC | GoForbes28: Chromium doesn't have the Google crapware or the scary Google EULA | Mar 10 18:14 |
DaemonFC | I always tell people use Chromium | Mar 10 18:14 |
GoForbes28 | Yeah, and SRWare has all possible spying features turned off, and built in adblock and user agent switch to boot | Mar 10 18:15 |
DaemonFC | the PPA versions of Chromium and the one provided by Tom Callaway for Fedora are compiled with the same optimization options and security settings Google uses for Chrome | Mar 10 18:15 |
GoForbes28 | Doesn't chromium still have freedom licencing issues? | Mar 10 18:15 |

DaemonFC | Chromium is better because you don't agree that Google can sell you down the river just for starting the application | Mar 10 18:15 |
DaemonFC | no, it's mostly BSD-style licenses | Mar 10 18:16 |
DaemonFC | it's free software | Mar 10 18:16 |
GoForbes28 | so is SRWare Iron, which goes a few steps further | Mar 10 18:16 |
DaemonFC | Google's EULA at one point was fairly vague about what information they could collect and what they could do with it | Mar 10 18:16 |

DaemonFC | it was worded o poorly that for example, if I typed up a blog post and hit submit, it belonged to Google | Mar 10 18:17 |
DaemonFC | anything you posted anywhere, the copyright was assigned to Google because you used Chrome | Mar 10 18:17 |
DaemonFC | they fixed that though after users complained enough | Mar 10 18:17 |
DaemonFC | linking to nonfree software does not make the software nonfree | Mar 10 18:18 |
GoForbes28 | It doesn't look like all the issues I posted were resolved | Mar 10 18:18 |
DaemonFC | the FSF has used that as a flimsy excuse to not recommend Google | Mar 10 18:18 |
DaemonFC | errr Debian | Mar 10 18:19 |
DaemonFC | *tired | Mar 10 18:19 |
DaemonFC | Debian doesn't advertise the nonfree repos, they are not enabled by default, and they explicitly do not support them | Mar 10 18:19 |
DaemonFC | they're there for users who need some nonfree software and go slightly out of their way to get it | Mar 10 18:19 |
DaemonFC | it doesn't make Debian less free | Mar 10 18:20 |
DaemonFC | Ubuntu, on the other hand..... advertises it | Mar 10 18:20 |
DaemonFC | suggests the user get it | Mar 10 18:20 |
DaemonFC | and says they support it, even though they obviously can't | Mar 10 18:20 |
DaemonFC | you tell me which one of those is free or not | Mar 10 18:20 |
GoForbes28 | RMS has said himself that he appreciates what Google does for the Free software community | Mar 10 18:20 |
GoForbes28 | He just doesn't throw caution to the wind, and neither do I. | Mar 10 18:21 |
GoForbes28 | Besides, we're not talking about Debian here, we're talking about Chromium | Mar 10 18:21 |
GoForbes28 | and I believe Chromium does recommend proprietary plugins | Mar 10 18:21 |
GoForbes28 | Similar to what Firefox does | Mar 10 18:21 |
DaemonFC | linking to nonfree software doesn't make you nonfree | Mar 10 18:22 |
DaemonFC | he uses this in his anti-BSD harassment | Mar 10 18:22 |
DaemonFC | repeatedly | Mar 10 18:22 |
GoForbes28 | But it hinders having a totally Free system | Mar 10 18:22 |
DaemonFC | OpenBSD is more free than GnewSense | Mar 10 18:22 |
DaemonFC | but the FSF considers it nonfree | Mar 10 18:22 |
GoForbes28 | Well, it does have proprietary blobs, so | Mar 10 18:23 |
DaemonFC | OpenBSD audits their licenses more carefully than Gnewsense does | Mar 10 18:23 |
GoForbes28 | Depends on how you define Free | Mar 10 18:23 |
DaemonFC | Gnewsense has ended up having nonfree software in their repo numerous times | Mar 10 18:23 |
DaemonFC | including afio | Mar 10 18:23 |
DaemonFC | almost every time you find out a piece of "free" software actually isn't, it's almost always in the "100% totally free" Linux distros | Mar 10 18:24 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 if I'm working it out, this is a chat thing? | Mar 10 18:24 | |
GoForbes28 | They also have less people too | Mar 10 18:24 |
GoForbes28 | Trisquel seems to do better | Mar 10 18:24 |
GoForbes28 | As I was saying | Mar 10 18:24 |
DaemonFC | I think it's ridiculous to say 100% totally free | Mar 10 18:24 |
GoForbes28 | yes, giving you the freedom to do whatever you want is freedom | Mar 10 18:24 |
DaemonFC | there is no system that's 100% totally free that a human would want to use | Mar 10 18:25 |
GoForbes28 | but I also think it is important to maintain the freedom for others | Mar 10 18:25 |
DaemonFC | Gnewsense wouldn't work for me because almost every piece of non-trivial hardware needs firmware to function, and that firmware is usually redistributable, but not free | Mar 10 18:25 |
GoForbes28 | Trisquel works just fine for me | Mar 10 18:26 |
GoForbes28 | I bought a laptop without a need for firmware | Mar 10 18:26 |
GoForbes28 | I researched and chose carefully | Mar 10 18:26 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: there is still firmware | Mar 10 18:26 |
GoForbes28 | and besides, Gnewsense is a lost cause anyway | Mar 10 18:26 |
GoForbes28 | Yeah, but it isn't propreitary | Mar 10 18:26 |
oiaohm | Difference between firmware loaded by OS and firmware in a rom chip somewhere. GoForbes28 | Mar 10 18:26 |

GoForbes28 | Loadable firmware? | Mar 10 18:28 |

oiaohm | That is where loadable firmware designs as so so good. | Mar 10 18:35 |
oiaohm | Ie one static firmware that starts the device | Mar 10 18:35 |
GoForbes28 | I actually installed said software once, it caused flickering and other odd events, uninstalled it, and the problems went away | Mar 10 18:35 |

GoForbes28 | yeah | Mar 10 18:43 |
GoForbes28 | hence the sarcasm | Mar 10 18:43 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Really I wish distribution would start supporting ksplice out box. | Mar 10 18:44 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 we do currently record in a skype conference, when we get more time to explore we'll try to switch to something free | Mar 10 18:44 | |
oiaohm | So restart not required. | Mar 10 18:44 |
GoForbes28 | if anybody believes they are enhancements, there is a bad case of delusion going about | Mar 10 18:44 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Is a sign of MS deperation. | Mar 10 18:44 |
GoForbes28 | Ksplice? | Mar 10 18:44 |
oiaohm | Trying to work out how to make Windows 8 sell. | Mar 10 18:44 |

Ender2070 | [21:43] <GoForbes28> Ender2070: Please don't insult Fedora like that. ;) | Mar 10 18:45 |
oiaohm | http://www.ksplice.com/why | Mar 10 18:45 |
Ender2070 | competition is good | Mar 10 18:46 |
oiaohm | Kspice is infact a open source solution GoForbes28 | Mar 10 18:46 |
oiaohm | That allows you to patch Linux kernel in place. | Mar 10 18:46 |
oiaohm | So yes if every feature Linux had on offer was being used by distrobutions there is no reason for a Linux to ever need a reboot. | Mar 10 18:46 |
GoForbes28 | cool | Mar 10 18:47 |
GoForbes28 | Now that's innovation | Mar 10 18:47 |
GoForbes28 | Ender2070: Yes, but Microsoft isn't competition | Mar 10 18:47 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Its only 8 years old. | Mar 10 18:47 |
GoForbes28 | Ubuntu is competition | Mar 10 18:47 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Its not new. | Mar 10 18:47 |
GoForbes28 | Debian is competition | Mar 10 18:47 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 I'll fire it onto mint for a quick chat, so we can test it | Mar 10 18:47 | |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: and unix's were doing like ksplice in the 1980~ | Mar 10 18:48 |
oiaohm | Basically if MS would basically just catch up a lot of people would be thinking new features. | Mar 10 18:49 |
oiaohm | Of course Linux servers are also aiming to get boot times down in to the seconds. | Mar 10 18:50 |
GoForbes28 | Or if MS went bust, which is preferable since they demonstrate no evidence of evolution | Mar 10 18:50 |
Ender2070 | [21:47] <GoForbes28> Ender2070: Yes, but Microsoft isn't competition | Mar 10 18:50 |
Ender2070 | opensuse isn't microsoft | Mar 10 18:50 |
oiaohm | opensuse and Novell do dispute. | Mar 10 18:50 |
oiaohm | A lot. | Mar 10 18:50 |
oiaohm | There are a lot of things done differently in opensuse compared to suse | Mar 10 18:50 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] just fixed the tags and stacked a lotta #Radiohead onto my mp3 player | Mar 10 18:50 | |
Ender2070 | yup | Mar 10 18:50 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: basically don't mix opensuse up with suse they have different management. | Mar 10 18:51 |
GoForbes28 | They should just fork FFS before they are too late, like OpenSolaris | Mar 10 18:51 |
DaemonFC | OpenSuse KDE isn't half bad | Mar 10 18:51 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: I don't think I ever mixed them up | Mar 10 18:51 |
oiaohm | Solaris still have a few minor tech advantages over Linux | Mar 10 18:52 |
GoForbes28 | or bring up opensuse for that matter :S | Mar 10 18:52 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 well, that saves hassle, it's already in the mint / ubuntu repos | Mar 10 18:52 | |
oiaohm | But its offset by all the other techadvantages Linux has. | Mar 10 18:52 |
oiaohm | its fun watching the BSD guys scream over HAL disappearing. | Mar 10 18:53 |
GoForbes28 | uh, oiaohm, can you respond to my comment? | Mar 10 18:53 |
Ender2070 | 11.4 has firefox 4 even | Mar 10 18:53 |
GoForbes28 | meh | Mar 10 18:53 |
GoForbes28 | I never considered things like that "features" | Mar 10 18:53 |
GoForbes28 | Anybody can install Firefox 4 | Mar 10 18:53 |
Ender2070 | yeah they can | Mar 10 18:54 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 both, I installed psi+ | Mar 10 18:54 | |
Ender2070 | but opensuse integrates firefox with kde | Mar 10 18:54 |
GoForbes28 | If you have a shitty OS with the GIMP, I wouldn't call the GIMP a feature | Mar 10 18:54 |
Ender2070 | they support the patches | Mar 10 18:54 |
GoForbes28 | Intergrate is what way? | Mar 10 18:54 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Sorry I took context wrong at one point. Where Ender2070 and your windows 8 leaks overlaped. | Mar 10 18:54 |
GoForbes28 | Is it a different implementation from the quasi-GTK mess? | Mar 10 18:55 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: No problem :) | Mar 10 18:55 |
Ender2070 | uses the kde file dialog | Mar 10 18:55 |
Ender2070 | giving it KIO support | Mar 10 18:55 |
Ender2070 | kde device mappings will then work | Mar 10 18:55 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[gbraad/@gbraad] another brainfart of @markshuttlecock? | Mar 10 18:55 | |
Ender2070 | libreoffice | Mar 10 18:56 |
Ender2070 | kde 4.6 | Mar 10 18:56 |
GoForbes28 | Well, I personally don't care for KDE, so it isn't a big selling point for me | Mar 10 18:56 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: MS counts OS installed applications in there windows feature list | Mar 10 18:56 |
GoForbes28 | Plus, OpenSUSE strikes me as bloated | Mar 10 18:56 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: Don't remind me | Mar 10 18:56 |
Ender2070 | Firefox integration in KDE Plasma, using native file dialogs, oxygen styling (also for GTK applications) and respecting the user’s mail client and browser choices. | Mar 10 18:57 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: All C++ programs are bloated due to current gcc issues. | Mar 10 18:57 |
GoForbes28 | Billy G: "But they're not applications!! They are components of Windows!!!11" | Mar 10 18:57 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: XFCE seems pretty unbloated right now | Mar 10 18:57 |
oiaohm | XFCE last time I looked is C. GoForbes28 | Mar 10 18:58 |
GoForbes28 | I prefer medium-light distros | Mar 10 18:58 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: XFCE wins again | Mar 10 18:58 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: The only thing better would be something programmed in assembly ;) | Mar 10 18:58 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: gcc 4.6 will cut some pounds off everything if distributions use it right. | Mar 10 18:58 |
Ender2070 | im wondering what version of gcc this uses | Mar 10 18:58 |
oiaohm | gcc 4.4 introduces whole program opt | Mar 10 18:58 |
oiaohm | gcc 4.6 has whole program opt that works. | Mar 10 18:59 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 alrighty, logged in but can't find any options for setting up the mic / headset | Mar 10 18:59 | |
Ender2070 | 11.3 had gcc 4.5 | Mar 10 18:59 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: But XFCE will still have a perfomance advantage? | Mar 10 19:01 |
GoForbes28 | OK, before we continue with the conversation(s), here's a bit of comic relief, free of charge | Mar 10 19:02 |
GoForbes28 | http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IknPfSHrHug/TD5E4Z8WK4I/AAAAAAAABW4/i6L2kVjg4To/s1600/Ignatieff_cheese_763841artw.jpg | Mar 10 19:02 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[goforbes28/@goforbes28] A little comic relief for tough times: http://tinyurl.com/4e2kxkg | Mar 10 19:04 | |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: some places XFCE is slower than KDE. | Mar 10 19:07 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: Blasphamy! | Mar 10 19:07 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: due to XFCE not taking advantage of the GPU that has at least 16 times the processing power of you cpu. | Mar 10 19:07 |
GoForbes28 | I pretty sure the latest version of XFCE has hardware desktop compositing | Mar 10 19:08 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[goforbes28/@goforbes28] @goforbes28 Hmm cheese! | Mar 10 19:09 | |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 on what tab? I can't see any reference to voice | Mar 10 19:09 | |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: No it don't. | Mar 10 19:09 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: And yes it need to get it at some point. | Mar 10 19:09 |
GoForbes28 | it has compositing, I find it hard to believe it isn't accelerated | Mar 10 19:10 |
DaemonFC | make localmodconfig is kind of neat :) | Mar 10 19:10 |
oiaohm | KDE basic window drawing is accelerated. GoForbes28 | Mar 10 19:10 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[wikileaks2/@wikileaks2] WikiLeaks cables: Indonesian President Yudhoyono is deeply corrupt http://alturl.com/3tpa8 !wl | Mar 10 19:10 | |
DaemonFC | it detects the kernel modules that nothing is using and removes them from your config | Mar 10 19:11 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: XFCE is using compositing just to move blocks of data around. Not to transform them. | Mar 10 19:11 |
DaemonFC | I notice that this way I end up building 420 modules instead of like 2100 | Mar 10 19:11 |
GoForbes28 | http://customisinglife.wordpress.com/2006/09/05/enabling-xfwms-compositor/ | Mar 10 19:11 |
oiaohm | ie XFCE usage you video card could be almost completely dumb and make no difference. | Mar 10 19:11 |
GoForbes28 | "To my understanding the compositor does not have a software fallback." | Mar 10 19:12 |
DaemonFC | you can use compiz on top of XFCE you know? :) | Mar 10 19:12 |
GoForbes28 | yes | Mar 10 19:12 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: those are really basic operations. | Mar 10 19:12 |
GoForbes28 | In XFCE case, I think it is more akin to Windows' GDI++, which provide hardware acceleration to make everything smoother in lieu of special effects | Mar 10 19:13 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: QT off loads a lot of 2d drawing to opengl. | Mar 10 19:13 |
oiaohm | So Qt can draw straight on the compesited memory. | Mar 10 19:13 |
DaemonFC | In Windows, WDM wraps around GDI+ | Mar 10 19:13 |
DaemonFC | you can address WDM directly but few things actually do | Mar 10 19:13 |
oiaohm | Basically why composite if you toolkits cannot draw directly on composite surfaces. GoForbes28 | Mar 10 19:14 |
DaemonFC | GDI+ is legacy crap that just won't die | Mar 10 19:14 |
GoForbes28 | Actually, it shouldn't die right now, because 99% of general Windows Apps use it | Mar 10 19:14 |
DaemonFC | that's why it's there | Mar 10 19:15 |
DaemonFC | as long as it's there, everyone will be lazy and keep using it | Mar 10 19:15 |
GoForbes28 | meaning that Windows 7, with it's lack of GDI+ acceleration, actually has much worse performance | Mar 10 19:15 |
DaemonFC | Microsoft can never deprecate it either | Mar 10 19:15 |
GoForbes28 | In other words, no one is satisfied | Mar 10 19:15 |
DaemonFC | they're stuck with it | Mar 10 19:15 |
GoForbes28 | yep | Mar 10 19:15 |
oiaohm | Really MS is stupid. | Mar 10 19:15 |
*Judas_PhD has quit (Quit: This is a quitting message) | Mar 10 19:15 | |
GoForbes28 | so for the sheep, they make the experience as painful as possible | Mar 10 19:15 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 that must be a plugin you;re using, I can't find it | Mar 10 19:15 | |
oiaohm | They have deprecated API in past. | Mar 10 19:15 |
oiaohm | The smart way is to provide a new API and let the old API die out. | Mar 10 19:16 |
DaemonFC | they usually won't deprecate something that lots of things actually use | Mar 10 19:16 |
DaemonFC | and if they do, they usually put out migration tools | Mar 10 19:16 |
DaemonFC | VB to VB.NET is rather painless | Mar 10 19:17 |
DaemonFC | so VB is deprecated | Mar 10 19:17 |
GoForbes28 | hey, this is the same company that made IE6 a dependency, FFS | Mar 10 19:17 |
DaemonFC | yeah, now IE is lugging around several rendering engines and broken JScript interpreters | Mar 10 19:18 |
GoForbes28 | Yes, but the GDI+ to whateverthehelltheuse isn't a transition | Mar 10 19:18 |
DaemonFC | lest something break | Mar 10 19:18 |
oiaohm | MS plan was by now to be Nuking the NT line. | Mar 10 19:18 |
GoForbes28 | it's handle so badly that it is a critical flaw of the system that the fanboy just shrug off | Mar 10 19:18 |
oiaohm | And we would be running a .net based OS. | Mar 10 19:18 |
oiaohm | That kinda did not work. | Mar 10 19:18 |
DaemonFC | I think they should have dropped IE 6 compatibility and told the broken websites to deal with it | Mar 10 19:19 |
GoForbes28 | And replace with magical theoretical OS? | Mar 10 19:19 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Its not a theoretical OS. | Mar 10 19:19 |
GoForbes28 | Doesn't exist, it's vapourware | Mar 10 19:19 |
DaemonFC | a lot of companies bitch that their stupid crufty old intranet is busted if they upgrade IE | Mar 10 19:19 |
GoForbes28 | And a .net operating system | Mar 10 19:19 |
DaemonFC | so they never do :) | Mar 10 19:19 |
GoForbes28 | Are they insane? | Mar 10 19:19 |
GoForbes28 | See how well a Java OS is doing? | Mar 10 19:20 |
GoForbes28 | Morons. | Mar 10 19:20 |
oiaohm | http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/singularity/ << their is the prototype. GoForbes28 | Mar 10 19:20 |
GoForbes28 | Talk about slow | Mar 10 19:20 |
GoForbes28 | On the plus side, reverse engineering would be a snap | Mar 10 19:20 |
oiaohm | And Windows Phone 7 is also trying to force in that direction. | Mar 10 19:20 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: application containment and hidden intergrated drm would also be a snap. | Mar 10 19:21 |
GoForbes28 | and doing a poor job. | Mar 10 19:21 |
DaemonFC | an OS in C# is not going to happen outside of a basically functionless novelty | Mar 10 19:21 |
GoForbes28 | Meh, someone would crack the DRM | Mar 10 19:21 |
oiaohm | singularity was interesting. | Mar 10 19:21 |
GoForbes28 | WPF is terrible | Mar 10 19:21 |
oiaohm | It was the first ms .net to contain a .net to native code complier. | Mar 10 19:21 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: In mind, still vapourware | Mar 10 19:21 |
oiaohm | Ie means to spit out native binaries. | Mar 10 19:21 |
GoForbes28 | wipdee-doo | Mar 10 19:22 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: You can download singularity build it and run it. | Mar 10 19:22 |
*Judas_PhD (~kevin@misterfluffy.dsl.xmission.com) has joined #techrights | Mar 10 19:22 | |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: vapourware says you cannot do even that. | Mar 10 19:22 |
GoForbes28 | and how far does that go in terms of basic functionality | Mar 10 19:22 |
DaemonFC | what's funny is thanks to .NET disassemblers, anyone who tries to make anything in any .NET language is exposing their source code | Mar 10 19:22 |
DaemonFC | you really think Microsoft is going to make an OS with it? | Mar 10 19:22 |
GoForbes28 | I referenced that | Mar 10 19:22 |
GoForbes28 | C'mon, you think Microsoft is stupid? | Mar 10 19:23 |
GoForbes28 | uh.. | Mar 10 19:23 |
oiaohm | DaemonFC: Ms did release a watch containing singularity. | Mar 10 19:23 |
GoForbes28 | a watch | Mar 10 19:23 |
GoForbes28 | wow | Mar 10 19:23 |
GoForbes28 | bet it was damned revolutionary | Mar 10 19:24 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: this why I am saying not vaporware. | Mar 10 19:24 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: You can guess how it sold. | Mar 10 19:24 |
oiaohm | Ie it did not. | Mar 10 19:24 |
GoForbes28 | ok, technically not vapourware | Mar 10 19:24 |
GoForbes28 | but given the amount of half-ideas out of M$ these days, I think we made to expand the definition | Mar 10 19:25 |
oiaohm | Techically is a failed product. | Mar 10 19:25 |
GoForbes28 | a useless nothing is still vapour | Mar 10 19:25 |
oiaohm | The watch was a phone watch to be a revelution in comunications. | Mar 10 19:25 |
oiaohm | Ie KIN mark 1 | Mar 10 19:25 |
oiaohm | KIN phone followed it. | Mar 10 19:26 |
GoForbes28 | yeah, a revolution in ineptness | Mar 10 19:26 |
oiaohm | Now we have WP7 trying to keep the .net on mobiles alive to hopefully allow .net on desktops to take off. | Mar 10 19:26 |
oiaohm | I am not seeing good odds of anything of this working. | Mar 10 19:26 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 it needs the psimedia addon | Mar 10 19:27 | |
oiaohm | Really its not ineptness Ms could see arm being a major player coming. | Mar 10 19:28 |
oiaohm | MS could see lot of there applications would not work accress cpu types. | Mar 10 19:29 |
GoForbes28 | As DaemonFC said, .net in an OS would only possibly kinda work on a phone, because it can be locked down | Mar 10 19:29 |
GoForbes28 | Of course, saying "work" is being generous :) | Mar 10 19:29 |
oiaohm | MS was hoping for .net to save there ass. | Mar 10 19:29 |
oiaohm | Yet the complete time MS has failed to get software makers onboard. | Mar 10 19:30 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 I have it set, you are freakzoid right? | Mar 10 19:30 | |

GoForbes28 | and even then, only partially | Mar 10 19:36 |
*DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Leaving.) | Mar 10 19:36 | |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Sony Vages is not the top in its field. Lightworks that is plan is to be cross platform without .net | Mar 10 19:42 |
GoForbes28 | "Open source" since 1989? | Mar 10 19:45 |
GoForbes28 | Really? | Mar 10 19:45 |

oiaohm | GoForbes28: Open source since 1989 refering to what. | Mar 10 19:47 |
DaemonFC | in an ideal world, all software would be free and open source | Mar 10 19:54 |
DaemonFC | in an ideal world there would also be no rape, murder, kidnappings, or child molesters | Mar 10 19:55 |
DaemonFC | take home point, not a perfect world | Mar 10 19:55 |
DaemonFC | the fact that these firmware blobs are proprietary really makes no sense most of the time anyway | Mar 10 19:56 |
DaemonFC | what trade secret is Realtek keeping in making integrated NIC firmware a blob? | Mar 10 19:56 |
oiaohm | Cheats on benchmarking. DaemonFC | Mar 10 19:58 |
oiaohm | Also some of the hardware is badly design secuirty wise. | Mar 10 19:59 |
oiaohm | So if you can do what ever you want you could basically run a hidden virus there. | Mar 10 19:59 |

oiaohm | Lightworks started life as a closed source product GoForbes28 | Mar 10 20:11 |
oiaohm | Editshare is quite a major server producer for high end production. There servers are Linux based. | Mar 10 20:12 |
oiaohm | There objective by aquiring Lightworks is to get a good video editor on Linux. | Mar 10 20:13 |
GoForbes28 | Aren't there already some good editors? | Mar 10 20:14 |
oiaohm | Not in lightworks class. GoForbes28 | Mar 10 20:15 |

oiaohm | GoForbes28: what interface standards where there in 1989 | Mar 10 20:26 |
DaemonFC | the Amiga was the most advanced computer of the 80s | Mar 10 20:27 |
DaemonFC | nothing else really even touched it | Mar 10 20:27 |
DaemonFC | the only reason the PC and Mac did better was because the Amiga was priced well out of the range of home computers | Mar 10 20:27 |
oiaohm | Lightworks and Blender are both from around the same time frame in interface design. | Mar 10 20:28 |
oiaohm | When you use to design interfaces for task. Not have patterns to follow. | Mar 10 20:28 |
DaemonFC | AmigaOS 4 ended up with a cult following too but they made this stupid inexplicable decision to target PowerPC | Mar 10 20:28 |
DaemonFC | which meant you were left to go buy a Mac, format Mac OS off, and install AmigaOS manually | Mar 10 20:29 |
DaemonFC | or buy this outrageously overpriced PPC system from them | Mar 10 20:29 |
DaemonFC | obviously they would have sold better if they targeted the x86 PC | Mar 10 20:30 |
DaemonFC | BeOS made the same mistake | Mar 10 20:30 |

GoForbes28 | yes | Mar 10 20:34 |
GoForbes28 | about the same pace as reactos | Mar 10 20:35 |
GoForbes28 | maybe a little faster | Mar 10 20:35 |
oiaohm | The problem with being a edge OS | Mar 10 20:35 |
oiaohm | Is lack of resources. | Mar 10 20:35 |
oiaohm | You can even see FreeBSD screaming out for resources. | Mar 10 20:36 |

Daemonfc | one thing that really stands out is that if radeon manages to hang X, this isn't normally a kernel panic thrown in as a bonus | Mar 10 14:59 |
Daemonfc | not so with FGLRX | Mar 10 14:59 |
Daemonfc | switch to tty1, kill X, switch to tty7, startx | Mar 10 14:59 |

Daemonfc | which as far as software rendering goes, llvmpipe is fantastic | Mar 10 15:10 |
Daemonfc | you're talking at least double the speed of Mesa's classic software rendering | Mar 10 15:10 |

Daemonfc | well, you're thinking, just plug the 487 in, won't work, not pin compatible with the 486 slot, and it won't work by itself if the main slot is empty | Mar 10 15:19 |
Daemonfc | Intel hasn't changed much | Mar 10 15:20 |
cubexyz | well I think 8086 was different | Mar 10 15:20 |

Daemonfc | or having artifacts and random crap draw to the screen | Mar 10 17:55 |
Daemonfc | Compiz developers some time ago recommended ditching nvidia for nouveau | Mar 10 17:55 |

Daemonfc | are you going to dump proprietary driver users to X and say good luck with that? | Mar 10 18:01 |
Daemonfc | proprietary drivers = third world Ubuntu experience since they can't use Wayland | Mar 10 18:01 |
Daemonfc | I figure that was the real goal in using Compiz in Unity | Mar 10 18:01 |
Daemonfc | mutter does not play nice with crap drivers | Mar 10 18:01 |
Daemonfc | whereas Compiz is full of hacks and work arounds | Mar 10 18:02 |
Daemonfc | hiding the problems in the users system is not a solution, it's a bandage | Mar 10 18:03 |
Daemonfc | eventually the hacks cause their own problems | Mar 10 18:03 |

Daemonfc | Nvidia not only doesn't fix their mess when they leave, they take a wrecking ball to your X.org/Mesa | Mar 10 18:06 |
Daemonfc | basically they sabotage your system so that removing their driver means you can't use a competing one later | Mar 10 18:06 |
Daemonfc | not without fixing a lot of files they overwrote | Mar 10 18:06 |
Daemonfc | I don't like software that barges in and decides that they own my system now | Mar 10 18:07 |
MinceR | is there some script or whatever that turns an arbitrary nvidia binary driver installer into a well-behaved package? | Mar 10 18:08 |
MinceR | .deb or whatever | Mar 10 18:08 |
Daemonfc | yes, Ubuntu makes it behave if you use their deb | Mar 10 18:08 |

DaemonFC | all he would have to do to see this was a deficiency in Ubuntu is boot a Fedora CD | Mar 10 21:03 |

oiaohm | Yes firefox is lacking a sandbox so in theory should be a softer target. | Mar 10 21:08 |
DaemonFC | it's not that Firefox is secure | Mar 10 21:08 |
DaemonFC | it's that IE is less secure | Mar 10 21:08 |

DaemonFC | errr Debian | Mar 10 21:18 |
DaemonFC | *tired | Mar 10 21:18 |
DaemonFC | Debian doesn't advertise the nonfree repos, they are not enabled by default, and they explicitly do not support them | Mar 10 21:19 |
DaemonFC | they're there for users who need some nonfree software and go slightly out of their way to get it | Mar 10 21:19 |
DaemonFC | it doesn't make Debian less free | Mar 10 21:19 |
DaemonFC | Ubuntu, on the other hand..... advertises it | Mar 10 21:20 |

GoForbes28 | Besides, we're not talking about Debian here, we're talking about Chromium | Mar 10 21:21 |
GoForbes28 | and I believe Chromium does recommend proprietary plugins | Mar 10 21:21 |
GoForbes28 | Similar to what Firefox does | Mar 10 21:21 |

DaemonFC | OpenBSD is more free than GnewSense | Mar 10 21:22 |
DaemonFC | but the FSF considers it nonfree | Mar 10 21:22 |
GoForbes28 | Well, it does have proprietary blobs, so | Mar 10 21:22 |
DaemonFC | OpenBSD audits their licenses more carefully than Gnewsense does | Mar 10 21:23 |
GoForbes28 | Depends on how you define Free | Mar 10 21:23 |

DaemonFC | I think it's ridiculous to say 100% totally free | Mar 10 21:24 |
GoForbes28 | yes, giving you the freedom to do whatever you want is freedom | Mar 10 21:24 |
DaemonFC | there is no system that's 100% totally free that a human would want to use | Mar 10 21:24 |
GoForbes28 | but I also think it is important to maintain the freedom for others | Mar 10 21:25 |
DaemonFC | Gnewsense wouldn't work for me because almost every piece of non-trivial hardware needs firmware to function, and that firmware is usually redistributable, but not free | Mar 10 21:25 |

oiaohm | That is where loadable firmware designs as so so good. | Mar 10 21:35 |
oiaohm | Ie one static firmware that starts the device | Mar 10 21:35 |
GoForbes28 | I actually installed said software once, it caused flickering and other odd events, uninstalled it, and the problems went away | Mar 10 21:35 |
oiaohm | then you load the correction each boot. | Mar 10 21:35 |
GoForbes28 | So I guess I was one of the lucky ones | Mar 10 21:35 |
GoForbes28 | BTW, you happen to see my dent on the stupid Windows 8 leaks? | Mar 10 21:35 |
oiaohm | So if you screw it up. | Mar 10 21:35 |
oiaohm | Clear the OS you are fine. | Mar 10 21:35 |
GoForbes28 | Those were the days | Mar 10 21:35 |
oiaohm | I have not seen what has happened to your dent on Windows 8 leaks | Mar 10 21:36 |
GoForbes28 | nothing has happened to it? | Mar 10 21:36 |

GoForbes28 | s find that dent. | Mar 10 21:40 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] I can imagine #Apple lawyers sending out a C&D on the term, demanding it be called something else | Mar 10 21:40 | |
Ender2070 | im grabbing opensuse 11.4 kde | Mar 10 21:41 |
oiaohm | Most of the Windows 8 leaks will be PR attempts to get people dancy and willing to buy | Mar 10 21:41 |
Ender2070 | im curious how it compares against fedora | Mar 10 21:41 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 we have been very erratic in recording times, I've missed a couple of eps due to an off the cuff "lets record" & I'm not in IRC | Mar 10 21:42 | |

DaemonFC | by enhacements you mean mock ups | Mar 10 21:43 |
GoForbes28 | yeah | Mar 10 21:43 |
GoForbes28 | hence the sarcasm | Mar 10 21:43 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Really I wish distribution would start supporting ksplice out box. | Mar 10 21:43 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 we do currently record in a skype conference, when we get more time to explore we'll try to switch to something free | Mar 10 21:44 | |

GoForbes28 | if anybody believes they are enhancements, there is a bad case of delusion going about | Mar 10 21:44 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Is a sign of MS deperation. | Mar 10 21:44 |
GoForbes28 | Ksplice? | Mar 10 21:44 |

Ender2070 | [21:43] <GoForbes28> Ender2070: Please don't insult Fedora like that. ;) | Mar 10 21:45 |
oiaohm | http://www.ksplice.com/why | Mar 10 21:45 |
Ender2070 | competition is good | Mar 10 21:45 |
oiaohm | Kspice is infact a open source solution GoForbes28 | Mar 10 21:46 |
oiaohm | That allows you to patch Linux kernel in place. | Mar 10 21:46 |
oiaohm | So yes if every feature Linux had on offer was being used by distrobutions there is no reason for a Linux to ever need a reboot. | Mar 10 21:46 |
GoForbes28 | cool | Mar 10 21:46 |
GoForbes28 | Now that's innovation | Mar 10 21:46 |
GoForbes28 | Ender2070: Yes, but Microsoft isn't competition | Mar 10 21:47 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Its only 8 years old. | Mar 10 21:47 |
GoForbes28 | Ubuntu is competition | Mar 10 21:47 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Its not new. | Mar 10 21:47 |
GoForbes28 | Debian is competition | Mar 10 21:47 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 I'll fire it onto mint for a quick chat, so we can test it | Mar 10 21:47 | |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: and unix's were doing like ksplice in the 1980~ | Mar 10 21:48 |
oiaohm | Basically if MS would basically just catch up a lot of people would be thinking new features. | Mar 10 21:48 |
oiaohm | Of course Linux servers are also aiming to get boot times down in to the seconds. | Mar 10 21:49 |
GoForbes28 | Or if MS went bust, which is preferable since they demonstrate no evidence of evolution | Mar 10 21:49 |
Ender2070 | [21:47] <GoForbes28> Ender2070: Yes, but Microsoft isn't competition | Mar 10 21:49 |
Ender2070 | opensuse isn't microsoft | Mar 10 21:50 |
oiaohm | opensuse and Novell do dispute. | Mar 10 21:50 |
oiaohm | A lot. | Mar 10 21:50 |
oiaohm | There are a lot of things done differently in opensuse compared to suse | Mar 10 21:50 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] just fixed the tags and stacked a lotta #Radiohead onto my mp3 player | Mar 10 21:50 | |
Ender2070 | yup | Mar 10 21:50 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: basically don't mix opensuse up with suse they have different management. | Mar 10 21:51 |
GoForbes28 | They should just fork FFS before they are too late, like OpenSolaris | Mar 10 21:51 |
DaemonFC | OpenSuse KDE isn't half bad | Mar 10 21:51 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: I don't think I ever mixed them up | Mar 10 21:51 |
oiaohm | Solaris still have a few minor tech advantages over Linux | Mar 10 21:52 |
GoForbes28 | or bring up opensuse for that matter :S | Mar 10 21:52 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 well, that saves hassle, it's already in the mint / ubuntu repos | Mar 10 21:52 | |
oiaohm | But its offset by all the other techadvantages Linux has. | Mar 10 21:52 |
oiaohm | its fun watching the BSD guys scream over HAL disappearing. | Mar 10 21:52 |
GoForbes28 | uh, oiaohm, can you respond to my comment? | Mar 10 21:53 |
Ender2070 | 11.4 has firefox 4 even | Mar 10 21:53 |
GoForbes28 | meh | Mar 10 21:53 |
GoForbes28 | I never considered things like that "features" | Mar 10 21:53 |
GoForbes28 | Anybody can install Firefox 4 | Mar 10 21:53 |
Ender2070 | yeah they can | Mar 10 21:54 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 both, I installed psi+ | Mar 10 21:54 | |
Ender2070 | but opensuse integrates firefox with kde | Mar 10 21:54 |
GoForbes28 | If you have a shitty OS with the GIMP, I wouldn't call the GIMP a feature | Mar 10 21:54 |
Ender2070 | they support the patches | Mar 10 21:54 |
GoForbes28 | Intergrate is what way? | Mar 10 21:54 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Sorry I took context wrong at one point. Where Ender2070 and your windows 8 leaks overlaped. | Mar 10 21:54 |
GoForbes28 | Is it a different implementation from the quasi-GTK mess? | Mar 10 21:54 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: No problem :) | Mar 10 21:55 |
Ender2070 | uses the kde file dialog | Mar 10 21:55 |
Ender2070 | giving it KIO support | Mar 10 21:55 |
Ender2070 | kde device mappings will then work | Mar 10 21:55 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[gbraad/@gbraad] another brainfart of @markshuttlecock? | Mar 10 21:55 | |
Ender2070 | libreoffice | Mar 10 21:55 |
Ender2070 | kde 4.6 | Mar 10 21:56 |
GoForbes28 | Well, I personally don't care for KDE, so it isn't a big selling point for me | Mar 10 21:56 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: MS counts OS installed applications in there windows feature list | Mar 10 21:56 |
GoForbes28 | Plus, OpenSUSE strikes me as bloated | Mar 10 21:56 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: Don't remind me | Mar 10 21:56 |
Ender2070 | Firefox integration in KDE Plasma, using native file dialogs, oxygen styling (also for GTK applications) and respecting the user’s mail client and browser choices. | Mar 10 21:56 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: All C++ programs are bloated due to current gcc issues. | Mar 10 21:57 |
GoForbes28 | Billy G: "But they're not applications!! They are components of Windows!!!11" | Mar 10 21:57 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: XFCE seems pretty unbloated right now | Mar 10 21:57 |
oiaohm | XFCE last time I looked is C. GoForbes28 | Mar 10 21:57 |
GoForbes28 | I prefer medium-light distros | Mar 10 21:57 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: XFCE wins again | Mar 10 21:58 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: The only thing better would be something programmed in assembly ;) | Mar 10 21:58 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: gcc 4.6 will cut some pounds off everything if distributions use it right. | Mar 10 21:58 |
Ender2070 | im wondering what version of gcc this uses | Mar 10 21:58 |
oiaohm | gcc 4.4 introduces whole program opt | Mar 10 21:58 |
oiaohm | gcc 4.6 has whole program opt that works. | Mar 10 21:58 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 alrighty, logged in but can't find any options for setting up the mic / headset | Mar 10 21:59 | |
Ender2070 | 11.3 had gcc 4.5 | Mar 10 21:59 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: But XFCE will still have a perfomance advantage? | Mar 10 22:01 |
GoForbes28 | OK, before we continue with the conversation(s), here's a bit of comic relief, free of charge | Mar 10 22:02 |
GoForbes28 | http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IknPfSHrHug/TD5E4Z8WK4I/AAAAAAAABW4/i6L2kVjg4To/s1600/Ignatieff_cheese_763841artw.jpg | Mar 10 22:02 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[goforbes28/@goforbes28] A little comic relief for tough times: http://tinyurl.com/4e2kxkg | Mar 10 22:04 | |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: some places XFCE is slower than KDE. | Mar 10 22:07 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: Blasphamy! | Mar 10 22:07 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: due to XFCE not taking advantage of the GPU that has at least 16 times the processing power of you cpu. | Mar 10 22:07 |
GoForbes28 | I pretty sure the latest version of XFCE has hardware desktop compositing | Mar 10 22:08 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[goforbes28/@goforbes28] @goforbes28 Hmm cheese! | Mar 10 22:09 | |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 on what tab? I can't see any reference to voice | Mar 10 22:09 | |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: No it don't. | Mar 10 22:09 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: And yes it need to get it at some point. | Mar 10 22:09 |
GoForbes28 | it has compositing, I find it hard to believe it isn't accelerated | Mar 10 22:09 |
DaemonFC | make localmodconfig is kind of neat :) | Mar 10 22:10 |
oiaohm | KDE basic window drawing is accelerated. GoForbes28 | Mar 10 22:10 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[wikileaks2/@wikileaks2] WikiLeaks cables: Indonesian President Yudhoyono is deeply corrupt http://alturl.com/3tpa8 !wl | Mar 10 22:10 | |
DaemonFC | it detects the kernel modules that nothing is using and removes them from your config | Mar 10 22:11 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: XFCE is using compositing just to move blocks of data around. Not to transform them. | Mar 10 22:11 |
DaemonFC | I notice that this way I end up building 420 modules instead of like 2100 | Mar 10 22:11 |
GoForbes28 | http://customisinglife.wordpress.com/2006/09/05/enabling-xfwms-compositor/ | Mar 10 22:11 |
oiaohm | ie XFCE usage you video card could be almost completely dumb and make no difference. | Mar 10 22:11 |
GoForbes28 | "To my understanding the compositor does not have a software fallback." | Mar 10 22:12 |
DaemonFC | you can use compiz on top of XFCE you know? :) | Mar 10 22:12 |
GoForbes28 | yes | Mar 10 22:12 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: those are really basic operations. | Mar 10 22:12 |
GoForbes28 | In XFCE case, I think it is more akin to Windows' GDI++, which provide hardware acceleration to make everything smoother in lieu of special effects | Mar 10 22:12 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: QT off loads a lot of 2d drawing to opengl. | Mar 10 22:13 |
oiaohm | So Qt can draw straight on the compesited memory. | Mar 10 22:13 |
DaemonFC | In Windows, WDM wraps around GDI+ | Mar 10 22:13 |
DaemonFC | you can address WDM directly but few things actually do | Mar 10 22:13 |
oiaohm | Basically why composite if you toolkits cannot draw directly on composite surfaces. GoForbes28 | Mar 10 22:14 |
DaemonFC | GDI+ is legacy crap that just won't die | Mar 10 22:14 |
GoForbes28 | Actually, it shouldn't die right now, because 99% of general Windows Apps use it | Mar 10 22:14 |
DaemonFC | that's why it's there | Mar 10 22:15 |
DaemonFC | as long as it's there, everyone will be lazy and keep using it | Mar 10 22:15 |
GoForbes28 | meaning that Windows 7, with it's lack of GDI+ acceleration, actually has much worse performance | Mar 10 22:15 |
DaemonFC | Microsoft can never deprecate it either | Mar 10 22:15 |
GoForbes28 | In other words, no one is satisfied | Mar 10 22:15 |
DaemonFC | they're stuck with it | Mar 10 22:15 |
GoForbes28 | yep | Mar 10 22:15 |
oiaohm | Really MS is stupid. | Mar 10 22:15 |
<--Judas_PhD has quit (Quit: This is a quitting message) | Mar 10 22:15 | |
GoForbes28 | so for the sheep, they make the experience as painful as possible | Mar 10 22:15 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 that must be a plugin you;re using, I can't find it | Mar 10 22:15 | |
oiaohm | They have deprecated API in past. | Mar 10 22:15 |
oiaohm | The smart way is to provide a new API and let the old API die out. | Mar 10 22:16 |
DaemonFC | they usually won't deprecate something that lots of things actually use | Mar 10 22:16 |
DaemonFC | and if they do, they usually put out migration tools | Mar 10 22:16 |
DaemonFC | VB to VB.NET is rather painless | Mar 10 22:17 |
DaemonFC | so VB is deprecated | Mar 10 22:17 |
GoForbes28 | hey, this is the same company that made IE6 a dependency, FFS | Mar 10 22:17 |
DaemonFC | yeah, now IE is lugging around several rendering engines and broken JScript interpreters | Mar 10 22:17 |
GoForbes28 | Yes, but the GDI+ to whateverthehelltheuse isn't a transition | Mar 10 22:18 |
DaemonFC | lest something break | Mar 10 22:18 |
oiaohm | MS plan was by now to be Nuking the NT line. | Mar 10 22:18 |
GoForbes28 | it's handle so badly that it is a critical flaw of the system that the fanboy just shrug off | Mar 10 22:18 |
oiaohm | And we would be running a .net based OS. | Mar 10 22:18 |
oiaohm | That kinda did not work. | Mar 10 22:18 |
DaemonFC | I think they should have dropped IE 6 compatibility and told the broken websites to deal with it | Mar 10 22:18 |
GoForbes28 | And replace with magical theoretical OS? | Mar 10 22:18 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Its not a theoretical OS. | Mar 10 22:19 |
GoForbes28 | Doesn't exist, it's vapourware | Mar 10 22:19 |
DaemonFC | a lot of companies bitch that their stupid crufty old intranet is busted if they upgrade IE | Mar 10 22:19 |
GoForbes28 | And a .net operating system | Mar 10 22:19 |
DaemonFC | so they never do :) | Mar 10 22:19 |
GoForbes28 | Are they insane? | Mar 10 22:19 |
GoForbes28 | See how well a Java OS is doing? | Mar 10 22:19 |
GoForbes28 | Morons. | Mar 10 22:19 |
oiaohm | http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/singularity/ << their is the prototype. GoForbes28 | Mar 10 22:20 |
GoForbes28 | Talk about slow | Mar 10 22:20 |
GoForbes28 | On the plus side, reverse engineering would be a snap | Mar 10 22:20 |
oiaohm | And Windows Phone 7 is also trying to force in that direction. | Mar 10 22:20 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: application containment and hidden intergrated drm would also be a snap. | Mar 10 22:21 |
GoForbes28 | and doing a poor job. | Mar 10 22:21 |
DaemonFC | an OS in C# is not going to happen outside of a basically functionless novelty | Mar 10 22:21 |
GoForbes28 | Meh, someone would crack the DRM | Mar 10 22:21 |
oiaohm | singularity was interesting. | Mar 10 22:21 |
GoForbes28 | WPF is terrible | Mar 10 22:21 |
oiaohm | It was the first ms .net to contain a .net to native code complier. | Mar 10 22:21 |
GoForbes28 | oiaohm: In mind, still vapourware | Mar 10 22:21 |
oiaohm | Ie means to spit out native binaries. | Mar 10 22:21 |
GoForbes28 | wipdee-doo | Mar 10 22:22 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: You can download singularity build it and run it. | Mar 10 22:22 |
-->Judas_PhD (~kevin@misterfluffy.dsl.xmission.com) has joined #techrights | Mar 10 22:22 | |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: vapourware says you cannot do even that. | Mar 10 22:22 |
GoForbes28 | and how far does that go in terms of basic functionality | Mar 10 22:22 |
DaemonFC | what's funny is thanks to .NET disassemblers, anyone who tries to make anything in any .NET language is exposing their source code | Mar 10 22:22 |
DaemonFC | you really think Microsoft is going to make an OS with it? | Mar 10 22:22 |
GoForbes28 | I referenced that | Mar 10 22:22 |
GoForbes28 | C'mon, you think Microsoft is stupid? | Mar 10 22:23 |
GoForbes28 | uh.. | Mar 10 22:23 |
oiaohm | DaemonFC: Ms did release a watch containing singularity. | Mar 10 22:23 |
GoForbes28 | a watch | Mar 10 22:23 |
GoForbes28 | wow | Mar 10 22:23 |
GoForbes28 | bet it was damned revolutionary | Mar 10 22:23 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: this why I am saying not vaporware. | Mar 10 22:24 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: You can guess how it sold. | Mar 10 22:24 |
oiaohm | Ie it did not. | Mar 10 22:24 |
GoForbes28 | ok, technically not vapourware | Mar 10 22:24 |
GoForbes28 | but given the amount of half-ideas out of M$ these days, I think we made to expand the definition | Mar 10 22:25 |
oiaohm | Techically is a failed product. | Mar 10 22:25 |
GoForbes28 | a useless nothing is still vapour | Mar 10 22:25 |
oiaohm | The watch was a phone watch to be a revelution in comunications. | Mar 10 22:25 |
oiaohm | Ie KIN mark 1 | Mar 10 22:25 |
oiaohm | KIN phone followed it. | Mar 10 22:25 |
GoForbes28 | yeah, a revolution in ineptness | Mar 10 22:26 |
oiaohm | Now we have WP7 trying to keep the .net on mobiles alive to hopefully allow .net on desktops to take off. | Mar 10 22:26 |
oiaohm | I am not seeing good odds of anything of this working. | Mar 10 22:26 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 it needs the psimedia addon | Mar 10 22:27 | |
oiaohm | Really its not ineptness Ms could see arm being a major player coming. | Mar 10 22:28 |
oiaohm | MS could see lot of there applications would not work accress cpu types. | Mar 10 22:29 |
GoForbes28 | As DaemonFC said, .net in an OS would only possibly kinda work on a phone, because it can be locked down | Mar 10 22:29 |
GoForbes28 | Of course, saying "work" is being generous :) | Mar 10 22:29 |
oiaohm | MS was hoping for .net to save there ass. | Mar 10 22:29 |
oiaohm | Yet the complete time MS has failed to get software makers onboard. | Mar 10 22:29 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] @goforbes28 I have it set, you are freakzoid right? | Mar 10 22:30 | |

GoForbes28 | and even then, only partially | Mar 10 22:36 |

oiaohm | GoForbes28: Open source since 1989 refering to what. | Mar 10 22:47 |
DaemonFC | in an ideal world, all software would be free and open source | Mar 10 22:54 |
DaemonFC | in an ideal world there would also be no rape, murder, kidnappings, or child molesters | Mar 10 22:55 |
DaemonFC | take home point, not a perfect world | Mar 10 22:55 |
DaemonFC | the fact that these firmware blobs are proprietary really makes no sense most of the time anyway | Mar 10 22:56 |
DaemonFC | what trade secret is Realtek keeping in making integrated NIC firmware a blob? | Mar 10 22:56 |
oiaohm | Cheats on benchmarking. DaemonFC | Mar 10 22:58 |
oiaohm | Also some of the hardware is badly design secuirty wise. | Mar 10 22:59 |
oiaohm | So if you can do what ever you want you could basically run a hidden virus there. | Mar 10 22:59 |

oiaohm | Lightworks started life as a closed source product GoForbes28 | Mar 10 23:11 |
oiaohm | Editshare is quite a major server producer for high end production. There servers are Linux based. | Mar 10 23:12 |
oiaohm | There objective by aquiring Lightworks is to get a good video editor on Linux. | Mar 10 23:13 |
GoForbes28 | Aren't there already some good editors? | Mar 10 23:14 |
oiaohm | Not in lightworks class. GoForbes28 | Mar 10 23:15 |
GoForbes28 | What stage of development is it at? | Mar 10 23:16 |
oiaohm | Binary for windows is released of course. Source code is in legal department of course to be completely audited by middle of year. | Mar 10 23:16 |
oiaohm | Binary for windows is released free of course. | Mar 10 23:16 |
oiaohm | So something better than Sony Vagas for nothing for windows users at moment. | Mar 10 23:17 |
oiaohm | Lightworks is able for most operations do them realtime. GoForbes28 | Mar 10 23:18 |

oiaohm | http://www.lightworksbeta.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=112&Itemid=246 And they are not slowing down feature development just because Linux and Mac support is on the roadmap. | Mar 10 23:22 |
GoForbes28 | looks very unique | Mar 10 23:24 |
oiaohm | Yes its funny they are calling it a Beta because the source code is not released. Not that is unstable or anything. | Mar 10 23:24 |
DaemonFC | I bought Lightworks when it was proprietary | Mar 10 23:25 |

oiaohm | GoForbes28: what interface standards where there in 1989 | Mar 10 23:26 |
DaemonFC | the Amiga was the most advanced computer of the 80s | Mar 10 23:26 |
DaemonFC | nothing else really even touched it | Mar 10 23:27 |
DaemonFC | the only reason the PC and Mac did better was because the Amiga was priced well out of the range of home computers | Mar 10 23:27 |
oiaohm | Lightworks and Blender are both from around the same time frame in interface design. | Mar 10 23:28 |
oiaohm | When you use to design interfaces for task. Not have patterns to follow. | Mar 10 23:28 |
DaemonFC | AmigaOS 4 ended up with a cult following too but they made this stupid inexplicable decision to target PowerPC | Mar 10 23:28 |
DaemonFC | which meant you were left to go buy a Mac, format Mac OS off, and install AmigaOS manually | Mar 10 23:29 |
DaemonFC | or buy this outrageously overpriced PPC system from them | Mar 10 23:29 |
DaemonFC | obviously they would have sold better if they targeted the x86 PC | Mar 10 23:29 |
DaemonFC | BeOS made the same mistake | Mar 10 23:30 |
*DaemonFC used and liked BeOS | Mar 10 23:30 | |
DaemonFC | Haiku seems to be progressing slowly | Mar 10 23:30 |
GoForbes28 | yes | Mar 10 23:34 |
GoForbes28 | about the same pace as reactos | Mar 10 23:35 |
GoForbes28 | maybe a little faster | Mar 10 23:35 |
oiaohm | The problem with being a edge OS | Mar 10 23:35 |
oiaohm | Is lack of resources. | Mar 10 23:35 |
oiaohm | You can even see FreeBSD screaming out for resources. | Mar 10 23:35 |
DaemonFC | FreeBSD seems to be doing OK | Mar 10 23:36 |
oiaohm | Not really. | Mar 10 23:36 |
oiaohm | Its still depending on items like HALd and other parts that have been declared dead. DaemonFC | Mar 10 23:37 |
DaemonFC | declared dead in Linux | Mar 10 23:37 |
DaemonFC | someone could maintain them for FreeBSD | Mar 10 23:37 |
oiaohm | hald is declared dead by freedeskop.org | Mar 10 23:38 |
GoForbes28 | At least there are a fair amount of BSD | Mar 10 23:38 |
oiaohm | Was declared non mainatined 3 years ago. DaemonFC | Mar 10 23:38 |
oiaohm | And no one has turned up. DaemonFC | Mar 10 23:38 |

DaemonFC | nothing in a Linux distribution has any business depending on HAL | Mar 10 23:39 |

DaemonFC | B-) | Mar 10 23:45 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Not exactly repetitive. Normally the task that to the end user look exactly the same. | Mar 10 23:49 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Some can be insanely hard to fix. Ie lack of reward for effort basically. | Mar 10 23:50 |
GoForbes28 | I don't know | Mar 10 23:50 |
GoForbes28 | extrinisic motivators tend to only work with very simple tasks | Mar 10 23:50 |
GoForbes28 | with problem solving and abstract thinking, they become useless | Mar 10 23:51 |

oiaohm | GoForbes28: Those are funded of course. | Mar 10 23:51 |
oiaohm | GoForbes28: Google summer of code only so useful because it cannot be targeted against the complex problems. | Mar 10 23:52 |
