DaemonFCif he's our second black president, we'll never have to worry about having a president after him because he will run what's left of the country into the groundNov 21 00:58
DaemonFCthrough stupidity and religious far right panderingNov 21 00:58
DaemonFCthe Republicans are only propping him up because they think it will make homophobic Christian blacks vote for him Nov 21 00:59
DaemonFCit's just bet hedgingNov 21 01:00

XFaCEDiablo-D3: "Alpine Linux is a community developed operating system designed for x86 routers, firewalls, VPNs, VoIP boxes and servers. It was designed with security in mind; it has proactive security features like PaX and SSP that prevent security holes in the software to be exploited. The C library used is uClibc and the base tools are all in BusyBox. Those are normally found in embedded systems and are smaller than the tools found in GNU/Nov 21 01:11

DaemonFChave yet to see anything crashNov 21 03:12
Diablo-D3DaemonFC: are you retarded?Nov 21 03:12
Diablo-D3the default debian install doesnt even include X!Nov 21 03:12
XFaCE<DaemonFC> KDE 4.7 is not buggyNov 21 03:12

XFaCE<DaemonFC> we're talking desktopsNov 21 03:13
Diablo-D3there is no default desktopNov 21 03:13
Diablo-D3so that shoots your theory all to hellNov 21 03:13
DaemonFCsure there is, you pick Desktop, it gives you GNOMENov 21 03:13

Diablo-D3prurigro: delta rpms only include deltasNov 21 03:14
DaemonFCwhat user goes through thousands of packages?Nov 21 03:14
Diablo-D3prurigro: so its smaller, but can also lead to a fucked systemNov 21 03:14

Diablo-D3many of the kde maints in debian are also kde devsNov 21 03:15
Diablo-D3so fuck off.Nov 21 03:15
prurigroDiablo-D3: well then, Arch's takes like half a second on my tablet let alone how quickly it goes on my desktop, so that wouldn't be too big a deal for me personallyNov 21 03:16
DaemonFCDebian Security is too lax, they're the ones who broke OpenSSL a while backNov 21 03:16
DaemonFCand ended up giving everyone basing on them, including Ubuntu, a critical vulnerabilityNov 21 03:16
Diablo-D3DaemonFC: oh, and I just asked apt-get to install gnome, no mono packages were on the list to install.Nov 21 03:16
Diablo-D3so you're double wrong.Nov 21 03:16
Diablo-D3prurigro: its not about speed, its about download sizeNov 21 03:16

Diablo-D3DaemonFC: bzzt, try againNov 21 03:17
Diablo-D3the openssl problem was thanks to openssl committing a patch that broke itNov 21 03:17
Diablo-D3debian didnt write the broken code, openssl didNov 21 03:17
XFaCEprurigro: CanadaNov 21 03:17

Diablo-D3and thanks to debian, everyone found out about it before openssl shipped itNov 21 03:17
DaemonFCit never ended up in any RPM distributionsNov 21 03:17
XFaCE<DaemonFC> it never ended up in any RPM distributionsNov 21 03:17
Diablo-D3because it was already in the main branchNov 21 03:17
Diablo-D3XFaCE: japan.Nov 21 03:17
prurigroDiablo-D3: ahh, tbh I'm not sure how big the metadata for arch's update is, though I've downloaded it in under 10 secs at some pretty slow speedsNov 21 03:17
XFaCEDiablo-D3: oopsNov 21 03:18
prurigrodebian's are consierably larger, in comparisonNov 21 03:18
Diablo-D3prurigro: debian doesnt do deltas of debsNov 21 03:18
prurigroI wonder how arch stacks up against fedora in that respectNov 21 03:18
Diablo-D3it does do deltas of indexes thoughNov 21 03:18
prurigroDiablo-D3: would a delta be considered the equiv of downloading a compressed package list including versions for a given repo?Nov 21 03:18
DaemonFCthere's no MAC implementation set up by default in Debian eitherNov 21 03:19
Diablo-D3prurigro: no.Nov 21 03:19
Diablo-D3a delta is the difference between two thingsNov 21 03:19

DaemonFCFedora has SELinux Targeted and it's in a known good configuration before it shipsNov 21 03:20

XFaCE<DaemonFC> Fedora has SELinux Targeted and it's in a known good configuration before it shipsNov 21 03:20
Diablo-D3DaemonFC: SELinux is not a good security method for people who are not trained in SELinux useNov 21 03:20
Diablo-D3it is _not_ for end usersNov 21 03:20
prurigroDiablo-D3: ohhhh, its not in the list, its in the difference in that respect- very interesting! that would seriously decrease update sizeNov 21 03:20

prurigroso I like the sounds of fedora's deltas, and I swear by arch's rolling release + aur, did we figure out what set debian ahead (and lets leave security out, for now)Nov 21 03:44

prurigrolike, we were summarizing the key points of each distroNov 21 03:44
Diablo-D3debian is ahead because the quality of the packaging is always the highestNov 21 03:44
DaemonFCit only replaces the files that changedNov 21 03:45
prurigrofedora had deltasNov 21 03:45
prurigroahh, so we'll go with stability for debian then?Nov 21 03:45
prurigroI take it we're talking actual debian, and not unstable?Nov 21 03:45
Diablo-D3no, Im even talking sid.Nov 21 03:46
prurigrohmm, I suppose unstable is attempting to become stable, eventuallyNov 21 03:46
prurigroso that would make enseNov 21 03:46
prurigrosense*Nov 21 03:46
Diablo-D3stability doesn't mean "unmoving"Nov 21 03:46
Diablo-D3it means uncrashing.Nov 21 03:46
prurigrohaha, true, but sometimes moving = crashingNov 21 03:46
Diablo-D3debian frequently will not upgrade a package if the new one has issuesNov 21 03:47

prurigrobut yea, it was the original bleeding edgeNov 21 03:47
prurigrothat said, I never had any major issues with upgrades when I used itNov 21 03:49
Diablo-D3lets put it this wayNov 21 03:49

Diablo-D3yet, I have never had trouble with it, and it is more up to date than almost any other distro out thereNov 21 03:50
Diablo-D3and btw, as for rolling releases, sid isnt even a releaseNov 21 03:50
Diablo-D3its a statement.Nov 21 03:50
prurigrohaha, yea, sid's been around for a while nowNov 21 03:50
Diablo-D3packages deemed extra stable eventually make it into testing, and then they turn a stable snapshot of testing into the next stable releaseNov 21 03:51
Diablo-D3sid never stopsNov 21 03:51
*DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)Nov 21 03:51
prurigroyea, its like the rolling release that builds releases, sortaNov 21 03:51
prurigroyou can, on that note, draw a pretty clear parallel between arch's rolling release and sid if you get past its purposeNov 21 03:52
Diablo-D3well, where do you think arch got the idea?Nov 21 03:52
Diablo-D3I just dont think releases have any place, however.Nov 21 03:53
prurigrogentoo as much as debian surely, but touche- and I fully agreeNov 21 03:53
Diablo-D3Manually upgrading an OS is something Microsoft made up.Nov 21 03:53
prurigroa release is out of dateNov 21 03:53
prurigroby definitionNov 21 03:53
Diablo-D3why upgrade when you can just continually update to whatever is newetNov 21 03:53
Diablo-D3*newestNov 21 03:53
Diablo-D3a distro isnt software, its a collection of software, and all of that software has different release schedulesNov 21 03:53
*DaemonFC (~ryan@unaffiliated/daemonfc) has joined #techrightsNov 21 03:54
prurigroseriously, its so much cleaner than doing a huge dump of upgrades every 6 monthsNov 21 03:54
prurigro*cough*Nov 21 03:54
Diablo-D3prurigro: exactlyNov 21 03:54
Diablo-D3but Ive used debian for over a decadeNov 21 03:54
Diablo-D3I simply do not understand other distros.Nov 21 03:54
prurigroarch is actually fairly similar to debianNov 21 03:54
Diablo-D3when you already have a perfect system, why make something elseNov 21 03:54
Diablo-D3arch is... I dunnoNov 21 03:54
Diablo-D3its like a bunch of ex-gentooites tried to copy debianNov 21 03:54
Diablo-D3and then fucked it up in the processNov 21 03:55
prurigrohaha, its a slightly different directionNov 21 03:55
prurigroeverything is vanillaNov 21 03:55
prurigrofirst of allNov 21 03:55
Diablo-D3yeah thats another thingNov 21 03:55
Diablo-D3all vanilla isnt good when a lot of projects tend to botch releasesNov 21 03:55
Diablo-D3gcc included *cough*Nov 21 03:55
prurigrohaha, well they do apply patches, ratherNov 21 03:56
prurigrobut configuration is vanilla I meanNov 21 03:56
prurigroa lot of patches come from debian as much as upstreamNov 21 03:56
prurigroall the files in /etc are as the projects you have the software installed for intendedNov 21 03:57
prurigrothe other big thing, and my personal reason for choosing arch of debian, is their PKGBUILD setup, and aur.archlinux.orgNov 21 03:57
XFaCEDiablo-D3: Really?  I thought Arch was more akin to some merger of ideas from Slackware and Gentoo.Nov 21 03:57
Diablo-D3XFaCE: well, I dunnoNov 21 03:58
Diablo-D3I just dont like archNov 21 03:58
Diablo-D3it left a bad taste in my mouth when I tried it lastNov 21 03:58
Diablo-D3its just very immature for a distroNov 21 03:58
prurigroXFaCE: arch is actually what you think, though one could argue gentoo got ideas from sidNov 21 03:58
prurigroit is, or was?Nov 21 03:58
prurigrowhen did you try it?Nov 21 03:58
Diablo-D3oh, like a year agoNov 21 03:58
Diablo-D3when it got popularNov 21 03:58
prurigroit only got popular a year ago?Nov 21 03:58
prurigroI've been running it for almost 4 now, it must beNov 21 03:59
Diablo-D3arguably its still not popular, so be happy I said that muchNov 21 03:59
prurigrodistrowatch could argueNov 21 03:59
prurigro:)Nov 21 03:59
Diablo-D3distrowatch is not really a viable source of statisticsNov 21 03:59
prurigroif you believe their stats at leastNov 21 03:59
Diablo-D3like, it thinks mint is the most popular distro everNov 21 03:59
prurigrolol, maybe it is right now?Nov 21 04:00
prurigroI'm not sure what it uses to measure thoughNov 21 04:00
Diablo-D3over the past 6 months according to themNov 21 04:00
Diablo-D3I know _no one_ that uses it.Nov 21 04:00
prurigroits been seeing a lot of references made to it onlineNov 21 04:00
prurigroon that noteNov 21 04:00
prurigroand someone mentioned it earlier over here, I thinkNov 21 04:01
prurigrobut that said, me eitherNov 21 04:01
prurigroI was half thinking of loading it up on my step dad's box though, since he needs user friendlyness and I'd never subject him to ubuntuNov 21 04:02
prurigroanyway, what made you feel bad about arch? I've been using it for probably 4 years at this point, and each installation is about the age of each box its onNov 21 04:03
Diablo-D3I dunno, it just didnt really offer anything usefulNov 21 04:04
prurigrono issues, no crashes, very good supportNov 21 04:04
prurigroaur.archlinux.orgNov 21 04:04
Diablo-D3arch has a lot of "we did it differently just to be different" crapNov 21 04:04
prurigroI feel like they're doing stuff with the opposite philosophyNov 21 04:04
prurigroevery distro tries to incorporate packages into their way of doing things, while arch tries to change as little as possibleNov 21 04:05
Diablo-D3alpine tries thatNov 21 04:06
Diablo-D3but not because of those reasonsNov 21 04:06
prurigrobut mostly, I think the aur is their revolutionary bit-- mind you that its both where arch stands out, and why it can never become the linux of the massesNov 21 04:06
Diablo-D3alpine thinks debian alters some packages too farNov 21 04:06
prurigronot as far as ubuntuNov 21 04:06
prurigrobut it does take things away from their rootsNov 21 04:06
Diablo-D3ubuntu breaks more shit than an incontinent man at a chili cookoff.Nov 21 04:06
prurigrolol, I'm glad ubuntu exists as the OS to bring all other linux OS' together towards a common hate =DNov 21 04:07
prurigrothat said, I wonder if mandrake is still around...Nov 21 04:08
XFaCEThen comes XFaCE to talk about 100% free distros!Nov 21 04:08
prurigrooh dear god, mandriva is still around :oNov 21 04:08
*XFaCE is smacked royally by Diablo-D3Nov 21 04:09
Diablo-D3mandrake is deadNov 21 04:09
prurigrolol, parabola?Nov 21 04:09
Diablo-D3so is suse, and I dont care if the suse camp says they are alive, get on the fucking cart.Nov 21 04:09
XFaCEprurigro: Trisquel, Debian sortaNov 21 04:09
prurigrolol, was someone saying yesterday that suse had been purchased by M$ or something?Nov 21 04:10
XFaCEprurigro: Theoretically, parabola should have no real problems compared to Arch, right?Nov 21 04:10
prurigroand word, so we got 3 completely free distros we know of at this point?Nov 21 04:10
XFaCEMoreNov 21 04:10
prurigroparabola is essentially arch with a blacklistNov 21 04:10
XFaCEThere's Blag and UlutoNov 21 04:10
XFaCEprurigro: Don't forget the kernelNov 21 04:10
prurigrothe kernel?Nov 21 04:10
XFaCEAnd Gnewsense, but that's like nichest of niche thingsNov 21 04:11
XFaCEprurigro: The libre kernelNov 21 04:11
prurigrooh, in parabola? yea, I suppose I shoulda said blacklist + replacements in some casesNov 21 04:11
prurigroI'm still not sure I get where the non-free stuff in the arch kernel comes fromNov 21 04:11
XFaCEproprietary kernel blobsNov 21 04:12
XFaCEAnd...prepare for the Diablo-D3 response...Nov 21 04:12
*XFaCE ducksNov 21 04:12

Diablo-D3gnewsense is retardedNov 21 04:14

prurigrognewsense?Nov 21 04:17
XFaCEgnewsense isNov 21 04:17
prurigrocomical attempt, in that caseNov 21 04:17
XFaCEGnewsense is kinda pointless though now, since Trisquel does everything it does betterNov 21 04:17
XFaCEGnewsense just runs on more platforms, making it ideal for the people running Lemote YeeLoongsNov 21 04:17
prurigrowhats trisquel based off?Nov 21 04:18

Brendan_TParabola is somewhat compiled for yeelongsNov 21 04:18
prurigrowe had that debate on parabolaNov 21 04:18

XFaCEAs has the FSFNov 21 04:18
XFaCEI would love to continue, but must sleep nowNov 21 04:19

DaemonFC"Thus, while high-level firmware (or software) typically is stored as a configuration of charges, low-level firmware may instead often be regarded as actual hardware in itself. "Nov 21 04:20

Brendan_Tmeta meta meta hardwareNov 21 04:21
Diablo-D3some firmware is merely data, and on the opposite end some firmware is a goddamned fucking fpga schematicNov 21 04:21
DaemonFCif they shipped the same code on the hardware you'd get the same thing, only it couldn't be updated by the manufacturerNov 21 04:21
*XFaCE gives channel operator status to Diablo-D3Nov 21 04:21
DaemonFCyet the FSF argues for thatNov 21 04:21

Diablo-D3in cases like wifi, it exists to lock out features because the law is gayNov 21 04:21
XFaCEGood, the same number of ops as beforeNov 21 04:21
Diablo-D3its not going away, and RMS beating his chest isnt going to fix itNov 21 04:22
prurigrohmm, yea, its a pretty fine lineNov 21 04:22
Diablo-D3in cases like video cards, its part of the hardware so stfu.Nov 21 04:22
Diablo-D3same with network cardsNov 21 04:22
XFaCEDiablo-D3: Err, if it's part of the kernel, than it is separate from the hardwareNov 21 04:22

prurigroplaystation, ratehrNov 21 04:23
Diablo-D3XFaCE: not at allNov 21 04:23
Diablo-D3in old days, it was in a flash rom on the hardwareNov 21 04:23
prurigrowhere its hardware with software, but eventually an open source emulation of the firmware was createdNov 21 04:23
Diablo-D3they decided to make the driver do it and not pay the cost of the flash rom.Nov 21 04:23
XFaCEOK, then they should keep it thereNov 21 04:23
Diablo-D3XFaCE: see above.Nov 21 04:23
XFaCEWell, then they opened up a can of wormsNov 21 04:23
Diablo-D3no they didnt.Nov 21 04:24
Diablo-D3only people like RMS does.Nov 21 04:24
Diablo-D3the driver uploads a bunch of bytes to initalize the hardwareNov 21 04:24
XFaCEI remember an AMD engineer discussing that the firmware blob contained code relating to DRM, and I mean the bad kindNov 21 04:24
Diablo-D3its not software in any sense to the computerNov 21 04:24
Diablo-D3XFaCE: no.Nov 21 04:24
XFaCEyes, I remember this clearlyNov 21 04:24
Diablo-D3thats contained in the onboard firmware in radeonsNov 21 04:24
Brendan_Twhat is the good kind?Nov 21 04:24
Diablo-D3thats NOT uploaded by the driverNov 21 04:24
Diablo-D3the blob that radeon drivers upload is actually part of the command processorNov 21 04:25

Diablo-D3no one has done it yetNov 21 04:25
prurigroso I suppose the FSF would prefer an open source implementation of hardware be writtenNov 21 04:26
XFaCEDiablo-D3: Well, it makes sense that they would want to push HW manufacturers to do it themselvesNov 21 04:26
Diablo-D3XFaCE: for who to do what themselves?Nov 21 04:27
Diablo-D3prurigro: yes, but thats outside of the realm of the FSF.Nov 21 04:27
XFaCEThe HW manufacturers, to push them away from the proprietary implementationsNov 21 04:28
Diablo-D3prurigro: and it also doesnt matterNov 21 04:28
Diablo-D3XFaCE: except thats nonsensicalNov 21 04:28
Diablo-D3its _hardware_Nov 21 04:28
Diablo-D3of course its fucking proprietaryNov 21 04:28
XFaCEDiablo-D3: Yes, and the TPM was just hardware tooNov 21 04:29
Diablo-D3except that implies the TPM is something its notNov 21 04:29
Diablo-D3and the implication goes wrong twiceNov 21 04:29
Diablo-D3TPM as envisioned by Microsoft doesnt workNov 21 04:29
Diablo-D3it wont stop people from doing what the fuck they wantNov 21 04:29
Diablo-D3its designed wrongNov 21 04:29
Diablo-D3the other implication is that the TPM is unable to do goodNov 21 04:30
XFaCEDiablo-D3: That's not my point.Nov 21 04:30
Diablo-D3now, if it actually did work, which it doesnt, but if it did, I could do an entire secure boot chain using purely FOSS software.Nov 21 04:30

prurigrooh kkNov 21 04:39
prurigrosounds good :)Nov 21 04:40
Brendan_Tinteresting moment to think about trying linuxNov 21 04:40
prurigrohowd you get into it?Nov 21 04:41
Brendan_Thardly even remember really, and it wasnt even that long ago. Ubuntu 8.04Nov 21 04:41
prurigrooh wow, the ubuntu era eh?Nov 21 04:42
prurigroI think 8.04 was one of their better releases, if I'm remembering correctly?Nov 21 04:42
Brendan_TI suppose i developed a hate for microsoft and similarNov 21 04:42
prurigrobig corporations can't be trusted with our interests, I'd argueNov 21 04:43
Brendan_Ti did went through a big cracked software faze, with gigabytes upon gigabytes of illegal things installedNov 21 04:43

Brendan_Tit wasnt until much later that i learnt about the gnu side of thingsNov 21 04:44
prurigroyou mean the philosophy beyond linux as an alternative?Nov 21 04:45
Brendan_Tgot really shitty about having learnt about "Linux" and not the more acurate historyNov 21 04:45
prurigrohaha, how so?Nov 21 04:45
Brendan_Twell the open source peeps do a good job of pretending that gnu doesnt exist, it seemsNov 21 04:46
prurigroaren't the open source peeps also the gnu peeps?Nov 21 04:46
Brendan_Teric raymond started it when he got a divorce with the fsfNov 21 04:46
prurigroohh, so there's a separate idea of 'open source' now?Nov 21 04:47
Brendan_Twhat do you mean?Nov 21 04:47
prurigrowell I mean, open source = GPLv2 right?Nov 21 04:47
prurigrosometimes v3Nov 21 04:47
Brendan_Tthere was "free software" for a while, then eric raymond broke of saying he didnt like it and started "open source"Nov 21 04:47
Brendan_Twhich presses the technical advantages over the freedom onesNov 21 04:48
prurigroahh, interestingNov 21 04:48
Brendan_Thttp://www.catb.org/esr/open-source.htmlNov 21 04:48
DaemonFCopen source and free software are effectively the same thingNov 21 04:48
DaemonFCit's rephrased such to where it sounds less like religious hippie crapNov 21 04:48
DaemonFCand more like a great development method you can pitch to a suitNov 21 04:49
Brendan_Tand makes everyone miss the point, and easily use proprietary softwareNov 21 04:49
DaemonFCand open source has probably done more for free software than free software has done for free softwareNov 21 04:49
DaemonFCit's a bigger tentNov 21 04:49
DaemonFCinstead of an obstacleNov 21 04:49
prurigroI can see both advantages and disadvantagesNov 21 04:49
DaemonFCI use the term interchangeably because I see very little difference Nov 21 04:50
DaemonFCopen source is more descriptive than free softwareNov 21 04:50
Brendan_Tdo some research Nov 21 04:50
prurigroit was definitely an idea that both attracted someone I worked for, but also convinced him his project should only give back where it was convenientNov 21 04:50
DaemonFCfree software sounds like "I got a free Windows license so Microsoft gave me free software"Nov 21 04:50
DaemonFCit leads the listener to miss the entire pointNov 21 04:50
Brendan_Topen source gets you Linux, free software gets you linux-libreNov 21 04:50
prurigro(open source)Nov 21 04:50
DaemonFCand requires the speaker to stop and explain what they meanNov 21 04:50
prurigroif we all spoke french things would be less confusingNov 21 04:51
Brendan_Twhy?Nov 21 04:51
prurigroI'm sure other languages would differentiate better tooNov 21 04:51
Brendan_Tof the free stuffNov 21 04:51
Brendan_Tlearn Lojban :)Nov 21 04:51
prurigrofree speach = libre, free beer = gratuitNov 21 04:51
Brendan_Twell there is a branch of free software peeps that use libreNov 21 04:52

prurigrowell, does this actually pose an issue beyond eye rolls?Nov 21 04:53
DaemonFCopen source on the other hand, is a much easier conceptNov 21 04:53

DaemonFCopen, as done out in the openNov 21 04:53
DaemonFCopen, as inclusiveNov 21 04:53
DaemonFCI think open source is the better termNov 21 04:54
prurigroand that said, did open source not exist back in ~1999-2000 too?Nov 21 04:54
prurigrolong before this split occured?Nov 21 04:54
DaemonFCthere was no real splitNov 21 04:54
Brendan_Taparently some people use the term "free world" to kinda say "free/libre software world", but some cultures who were on the other end of the cold war get shivers down their spine at the sound of it lolNov 21 04:54
DaemonFCthey both accomplish the same thingNov 21 04:54
DaemonFCRichard Stallman says they don't because he wants everyone to use copyleftNov 21 04:54
DaemonFCwhen he talks about free software, he excludes a lot of itNov 21 04:54
DaemonFCand causes what is effectively a class warNov 21 04:55
prurigrowell lets call it a 'supposed split' thenNov 21 04:55
DaemonFCthe difference is in the mentalityNov 21 04:56
DaemonFCalmost all open source software is free softwareNov 21 04:56
prurigrobut open source was literally part of free software up till thenNov 21 04:56
prurigrono?Nov 21 04:56
DaemonFCand almost all free software is open sourceNov 21 04:56
DaemonFCnoNov 21 04:56
DaemonFCopen source existed before free softwareNov 21 04:56
Brendan_Tthe term 'open source' didnt though... ?Nov 21 04:57
prurigroahhh kk, that would also make sense in my timeline of eventsNov 21 04:57
DaemonFCnobody had named it thatNov 21 04:57
prurigrothe term didNov 21 04:57
prurigroI'm fairly sureNov 21 04:57
Brendan_Ti swear i read that when eric left free software they kinda pondered around for a new term and came up with itNov 21 04:57
prurigrolike, unless my brain is applying false information to past event, I remember the term open source right back to the time I started using linuxNov 21 04:57
Brendan_Tor something like thatNov 21 04:57
prurigrothat does seem to be what the page is saying on that noteNov 21 04:58
prurigrohence me wanting to clarifyNov 21 04:58
prurigroDaemonFC: do you remember?Nov 21 04:58
prurigroor knowNov 21 04:58
DaemonFCthe MIT X11 license existed a long time before the term open source didNov 21 04:59
cubezzzwell you can go all the way back to Unix v5Nov 21 04:59
DaemonFCbut its goals were more open source than free softwareNov 21 04:59
cubezzzbut was it "open" when it first was released, I'm not sureNov 21 04:59
prurigrowell I'm talking pre 2007Nov 21 04:59
prurigromoreNov 21 04:59
prurigrowhen that doc Brendan_T mentioned came outNov 21 05:00
prurigrohttp://www.catb.org/esr/open-source.html this oneNov 21 05:00
cubezzzthe Lion's Commentary on Unix was v6Nov 21 05:00
cubezzzthen there was trouble after thatNov 21 05:01
cubezzzalso people had trouble installing BSD on 386's Nov 21 05:01
cubezzzalso I heard the BSD guys weren't too friendlyNov 21 05:02
prurigrowasn't BSD looking at some legality issues around then too?Nov 21 05:02
cubezzzmay explain why Linux caught on... the Linux group was just nicerNov 21 05:03
prurigroBell Labs was also trying to recover some cash when they realized unix was making headway tooNov 21 05:03
prurigroI believeNov 21 05:03
prurigrohence Linus deciding to try a spinoffNov 21 05:03
cubezzzthey didn't want people using the term "Unix"Nov 21 05:03
cubezzzor UNIX or whatever it wasNov 21 05:03
prurigrololNov 21 05:04
prurigroI think there was a bit of stuff involved in continueing to spread the source around tooNov 21 05:04
cubezzzthere were huge flame-wars over monolithic kernel vs. micro-kernelNov 21 05:04
prurigrolol, those were still going on when I startedNov 21 05:05
prurigroalong with emacs vs vimNov 21 05:05
prurigrofunny how times changeNov 21 05:05
prurigroafter staying the same for so longNov 21 05:05
cubezzzLinux was smaller in the beginning too, so people had less diskettes to download to get it, vs BSDNov 21 05:05
prurigrohmm trueNov 21 05:06
*Brendan_T uses emacsNov 21 05:06
prurigroBrendan_T: oh no you didn't! =DNov 21 05:06
Brendan_Ti only know less than 10 key combinations thoughNov 21 05:06
prurigroall you need?Nov 21 05:06
Brendan_ThaNov 21 05:06
cubezzzback in the 70's you needed a PDP of some sort to get in the gameNov 21 05:07
cubezzzso probably you _could_ get a mag tape and hack aroundNov 21 05:07
prurigroI'm so glad I didn't grow up in the 70sNov 21 05:07
prurigroall the cool people, like that guy from the merry pranksters.. whats his nameNov 21 05:07
cubezzzbut would you have access to a computer than could run Unix? that's the problemNov 21 05:07
cubezzzthatNov 21 05:07
prurigroanyway, everyone who knows their shit from tht time had to have been involved in some crazy shit to have gotten the knowhowNov 21 05:07
cubezzzsome of the PDP's folks looked down on the PC folksNov 21 05:08
cubezzzthat didn't helpNov 21 05:08
prurigrohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stewart_BrandNov 21 05:08
prurigrolol, well the PC folks woulda been nubs compared to themNov 21 05:09
Brendan_Twe should bring mainframes back into fashionNov 21 05:09
prurigrololNov 21 05:09
prurigrowe have servers with terminalsNov 21 05:09
prurigrodoes that count?Nov 21 05:09
Brendan_Ti remember in highschool someone told me they 'knew how to hack into the schools mainframe'Nov 21 05:09
prurigrololNov 21 05:09
prurigroa few too many episodes of reboot?Nov 21 05:09
cubezzzeven in the 80's "open" wasn't commonNov 21 05:10
Brendan_Tdont know itNov 21 05:10
cubezzzwe had stuff like sun4's running sunOSNov 21 05:10
prurigromaybe its just canadian? first cg cartoon I thinkNov 21 05:10
cubezzzI don't recall anyone with source code to the whole OS thoughNov 21 05:10
prurigrocubezzz: wasn't unix running under the bsd license?Nov 21 05:10
Brendan_Thttp://xkcd.com/378/Nov 21 05:10
cubezzzthere's Bell Labs Unix, then BSD came laterNov 21 05:11
prurigroclassicNov 21 05:11
prurigrocubezzz: ohh, hmm, is bsd not based off the same trunk as bell labs once was?Nov 21 05:12
cubezzzwell Berkeley got Unix from AT&TNov 21 05:13
cubezzzBerkeley got a PDP-11 in 1974Nov 21 05:14
cubezzzso they started hacking around 1977Nov 21 05:14
prurigrohmm, so the short answer is yes?Nov 21 05:15
prurigrobut that the license came later/Nov 21 05:15
prurigro?Nov 21 05:15
cubezzzwell the Licenses were proprietary at the startNov 21 05:16
cubezzzthen gradually it became openNov 21 05:16
prurigroeven berkley?Nov 21 05:16
cubezzzthey were subject to the AT&T software license at the startNov 21 05:17
cubezzzonce BSD got rid of the AT&T licensed code, I would suppose that would make it possible to use a BSD license at that pointNov 21 05:19
cubezzzso from Net/1 onwardsNov 21 05:20
prurigrointeresting- yea, I was never completely clear on when the BSD license popped up, I think it was pre GNU thoughNov 21 05:20
prurigroahhhNov 21 05:20
prurigroany idea what year that woulda been?Nov 21 05:21
cubezzzbut there was a problem with Net/1Nov 21 05:21
prurigroor even decade? hahaNov 21 05:21
prurigrooh?Nov 21 05:21
cubezzzNet/1 was June 1989Nov 21 05:21
prurigroahh word, so after GNU then eh?Nov 21 05:21
cubezzzso you can see that the 80's wasn't really a time of "openness"Nov 21 05:21
cubezzzprurigro, unfortunately the GNU folks didn't have a complete OSNov 21 05:22
cubezzzyou know that part I'm sureNov 21 05:22
prurigroyea, they were sitting there with the toolkitNov 21 05:22
cubezzzwe had stuff like Desqview, Topview and MSDOS and BBSes :)Nov 21 05:23
cubezzzI suppose there were a few Xenix boxes tooNov 21 05:23
prurigrolol, I remember using my first BBS in 1992Nov 21 05:23
cubezzzoh and C-net on c64's was pretty common tooNov 21 05:24
prurigroI learned computing on a c64Nov 21 05:24
prurigroc-net?Nov 21 05:24
prurigrowas that the loader system?Nov 21 05:24
cubezzzTanenbaum wrote his book in 1987 but I never heard about it until probably oh 1993-94Nov 21 05:24
cubezzzprurigro, BBS that supported c64 character graphicsNov 21 05:25
prurigrooh word, I heard c64s could do stuff like that, but it definitely wasn't common practice hahaNov 21 05:26
prurigroin fact, I remember reading about a c64 web server someone built a few years backNov 21 05:27
cubezzzwell the 1541's would overheat and you had 64K so....Nov 21 05:27
prurigrolol, their 1mhz in all its glory?Nov 21 05:28
cubezzzthe drive's could get warmNov 21 05:29
prurigrooh you mean the 1541 drive, not the 1541 cpu?Nov 21 05:29
cubezzzthere's no 1541 cpuNov 21 05:29
cubezzzthe 1541 was the model number of the floppy drive we used Nov 21 05:29
prurigrohm, I just checked, you're right- the '1541 cpu' was the cpu in the drive haha, I'd always thought it was the actual cpuNov 21 05:30
cubezzzthere's a cpu inside the drive, yesNov 21 05:30
cubezzz6502Nov 21 05:31
prurigroI'd read a while back that the 1541 cpu was used in processing, but I'm reading the same page now and it was talking about using the '1541 cpu to help in calculations'-- obviously referring to the cpu in the drive, and not the name of that cpu, which I'm guessing is the 6502?Nov 21 05:33
cubezzzyesNov 21 05:33
cubezzzused in 1571 and 1581 drives alsoNov 21 05:33
prurigrointeresting-- I'll have to dig mine up and see what kinda drive it has *curious now*Nov 21 05:34
cubezzzfor me the 40 characters per line was a real painNov 21 05:34
cubezzzbut it was cheapNov 21 05:34
prurigrolol, yea, and surprisingly capable, considering its limitationsNov 21 05:34
cubezzzI mean the old coding forms were 72 charactersNov 21 05:35
cubezzzso 40 characters across wasn't too fun for programmingNov 21 05:35
prurigrooh hmm, what kind of environment had you learned in?Nov 21 05:36
cubezzzwell I started with BASIC on a Commodore PET :)Nov 21 05:36
cubezzzbut later on it was FortranNov 21 05:36
prurigroohhh basic =DNov 21 05:36
prurigrothat was my first language tooNov 21 05:36
prurigroand damn, Fortran eh?Nov 21 05:36
cubezzzI did some Cobol tooNov 21 05:36
prurigrowait, rewind to basicNov 21 05:36
prurigrohow many lines did the PET give?Nov 21 05:37
cubezzzdepends on which PETNov 21 05:37
prurigroerrNov 21 05:37
prurigrochars per lilne*Nov 21 05:37
cubezzzthe earliest ones, 40 characters per lineNov 21 05:37
prurigrodidn't you say you'd been used to 72?Nov 21 05:37
cubezzzwell you could have more than 40 characters per statement by abusing colonsNov 21 05:38
cubezzzbut it was messyNov 21 05:38
prurigrobetter to just keep to the limitation eh?Nov 21 05:38
cubezzzwell in those days we would pack a ton of stuff on one line to save memoryNov 21 05:39
cubezzzit was a terrible practiseNov 21 05:39
prurigrolol, I remember my uncle talking of these hacksNov 21 05:39
prurigroapparently good for getting into the embedded systems market we have todayNov 21 05:39
cubezzzwhen I was using Fortran we had 80-character terminalsNov 21 05:39
cubezzzso we didn't do any silly stuff like pack 256 characters into one lineNov 21 05:40
prurigroword, not a home box I'm guessingNov 21 05:40
prurigro?\Nov 21 05:40
prurigroop hrm, gf says its time for bed, so it seems I might need to head offNov 21 05:40
cubezzzsome CDC termNov 21 05:40
cubezzzCDC 110 I think it wasNov 21 05:40
prurigrooh cool!Nov 21 05:40
prurigroI'm sad I missed out on getting to play with something like thatNov 21 05:41
cubezzzyou can still buy a DEC VT100 :)Nov 21 05:41
prurigrohmmm, ebay?Nov 21 05:41
cubezzzyesNov 21 05:42
cubezzzDEC was a big deal at one timeNov 21 05:42
prurigrohmm, I'm gonna have to see what these costs when I wake up :)Nov 21 05:42
prurigroanyway, should run for nowNov 21 05:42
cubezzzok, laterNov 21 05:43
prurigrotwas a good chat @cubezzz, and everyone elseNov 21 05:43
prurigrohave a good night :)Nov 21 05:43

schestowitzThe savings offered from electronic texts become more obvious when you consider a well stocked library as part of a school. Textbooks alone are more close to equivalent if the device only lasts two or three years.The balance will shift dramatically as devices drop below $100 retail, like India's tablet projects will soon.Nov 21 08:13
schestowitzPeople also underestimate the environmental damage done by paper production. Paper is the 5th largest consumer of electricity in the US and most of that electricity is coal generated. Paper plants also spew out noxious gasses and pollute water.Nov 21 08:13

schestowitzthanks for the gift, you're awesomeNov 21 17:59
kari_I have not done much with myself. When I have time I plan to see where diffrent programs actually gets their radomness. I wonder whether PGP uses /dev/random or /dev/urandom.Nov 21 18:01
Kryczeknice! Didnt know about Entropy KeyNov 21 18:01
kari_Now when we are at it. Could someone tell me the difference of those ...Nov 21 18:01
schestowitzKryczek: kari_ sent me one from Finland as a giftNov 21 18:02

Kryczek/dev/random blocksNov 21 18:02
schestowitzKryczek: I never dabbled in toseNov 21 18:02
kari_I quess one is true in a way that it generates the randomness from the system event. And the other one is just stupid mathematical way Nov 21 18:02
Kryczekwhereas urandom never blocks, but it makes the data less randomNov 21 18:02
