scientes | xfce? | Jan 14 00:00 |
scientes | lxde? | Jan 14 00:00 |
brendyn | ive pondered them | Jan 14 00:00 |
cubezzz | Proteus :) | Jan 14 00:00 |
scientes | i've only used lxde, which is very well done | Jan 14 00:00 |
brendyn | but all the conveniences of gnome 2 have been good | Jan 14 00:00 |
scientes | gnome-shell keeps the same application layout once you find it | Jan 14 00:01 |
scientes | I am actually liking it, but it took some getting use to---however yes, I generally hate animation | Jan 14 00:01 |
scientes | thats the first thing I use to do---turn off _ALL_ animation | Jan 14 00:01 |
cubezzz | I know light linux | Jan 14 00:01 |
scientes | and you can't do that with gnome 3 | Jan 14 00:01 |
cubezzz | I run the oldest hardware here I bet :) | Jan 14 00:02 |
scientes | or at least gnome-shell | Jan 14 00:02 |
scientes | Id on't see why developers want to be all flash | Jan 14 00:02 |
cubezzz | flash sux | Jan 14 00:02 |
scientes | I hate all that shit, even if I have a fast computer | Jan 14 00:02 |
scientes | its just distracting | Jan 14 00:02 |
scientes | whoops | Jan 14 00:02 |
scientes | I meant flashy--animations | Jan 14 00:02 |
cubezzz | oh that sux too :) | Jan 14 00:03 |
scientes | I just like clean, highly functional interfaces | Jan 14 00:03 |
scientes | but meh, I'm using gnome 3 and finding it quite usable | Jan 14 00:03 |
brendyn | i had to edit a javascript file to get rid of the hot corner | Jan 14 00:04 |
scientes | whats the "hot corner"? | Jan 14 00:04 |
brendyn | and that whole strange icon interface for opening applications just seems strange | Jan 14 00:04 |
scientes | lower right? | Jan 14 00:04 |
brendyn | when sliding my mouse into the top left corner it opens up activities | Jan 14 00:04 |
brendyn | the best way i menu is just a simple one like lxde or gnome 2 | Jan 14 00:06 |
brendyn | like pretty much everything with some sense does | Jan 14 00:06 |
cubezzz | icewm, xfce... | Jan 14 00:06 |
brendyn | mints menu app uses 14MiB of ram and is very sluggish | Jan 14 00:07 |
brendyn | and in the new one i didnt even have the open to revert to the old one | Jan 14 00:07 |
brendyn | new version of mint | Jan 14 00:07 |

scientes | "On the political front, it is a fairly safe bet that the mobile patent wars will get worse. The participants in this battle appear to be tooling up for an extensive and protracted fight, and there seems to be a steady supply of new companies (British Telecom, for example) piling on in the hope of gaining a piece of the pie for themselves. Things may reach a point where it becomes impossible to market handsets or tablets in some parts of the | Jan 14 00:15 |

Alas, a more likely outcome (though not in 2012) is the formation of a patent pool under strong "encouragement" by governments that ends the fights and establishes the positions of a small number of large players at the expense of new entrants.

DaemonFC | huh? | Jan 14 21:39 |
schestowitz | s/wife/cat./ | Jan 14 21:39 |
DaemonFC | the cat is fine | Jan 14 21:40 |
MinceR | a cat is fine too | Jan 14 21:40 |

schestowitz | DaemonFC: ok, so you stopped beating it | Jan 14 21:40 |
DaemonFC | I've never hurt an animal | Jan 14 21:42 |
DaemonFC | I've eaten quite a few that were already dead | Jan 14 21:42 |
DaemonFC | :P | Jan 14 21:42 |
schestowitz | but MinceR asked a loaded question | Jan 14 21:42 |
schestowitz | and you fell into the trap | Jan 14 21:42 |
MinceR | i answered a loaded question with another loaded question | Jan 14 21:42 |
DaemonFC | I don't consider it loaded | Jan 14 21:43 |
schestowitz | oh trust me... it's LOADED /melaughs | Jan 14 21:43 |
DaemonFC | the fact that XEmacs lives on when the FSF could use the code from it is proof they don't work with people | Jan 14 21:43 |
cubezzz | wow, finally managed to do a remote graphical login | Jan 14 21:43 |
cubezzz | only thing is, it was fedora -> fedora | Jan 14 21:44 |
MinceR | yeah, because forked projects never live on along with the original project if the FSF isn't involved | Jan 14 21:44 |
MinceR | and in general, human beings always cooperate perfectly with each other, right? | Jan 14 21:45 |
DaemonFC | Wikipedia is behind | Jan 14 21:45 |
DaemonFC | they list an old version of XEmacs as current | Jan 14 21:45 |
*DaemonFC has a habit of updating these things | Jan 14 21:45 | |
MinceR | conspiracy theory explanation in 3...2...1... | Jan 14 21:45 |
DaemonFC | nobody has yet corrected it | Jan 14 21:46 |
cubezzz | it's Microsoft's fault, I'm going with that | Jan 14 21:46 |
DaemonFC | oh, their terminology for stable is weird | Jan 14 21:47 |
DaemonFC | according to this, I've been using a "beta" since around 2006 | Jan 14 21:48 |

DaemonFC | http://stallman.org/articles/xemacs.origin | Jan 14 21:53 |
DaemonFC | Stallman's account | Jan 14 21:53 |
DaemonFC | he mentions GNOME as a GNU project even though it is only barely one | Jan 14 21:54 |
DaemonFC | (They very nearly had a vote to leave the GNU project a little while back) | Jan 14 21:54 |
DaemonFC | and they do things that RMS wouldn't like, such as recommending Mono | Jan 14 21:54 |
DaemonFC | frequently | Jan 14 21:54 |
DaemonFC | KDE has much less of a cloud over it as far as I am concerned | Jan 14 21:55 |
DaemonFC | they don't recommend .NET or advertise MPEG-4 | Jan 14 21:56 |
DaemonFC | like GNOME does | Jan 14 21:56 |
DaemonFC | I like the reasoning you hear a lot when you talk to a project like that | Jan 14 21:58 |
DaemonFC | they assume that just because they can use such things where they are now, that the law there will never change and the special interests will never get their way | Jan 14 21:59 |
DaemonFC | (and if and when it does, they can lose access to all of that, overnight) | Jan 14 21:59 |
DaemonFC | they're still taking a huge risk, they're just putting it off | Jan 14 21:59 |
MinceR | 225417 < DaemonFC> he mentions GNOME as a GNU project even though it is only barely one | Jan 14 22:00 |
MinceR | 225442 < DaemonFC> (They very nearly had a vote to leave the GNU project a little while back) | Jan 14 22:00 |
MinceR | nearly. | Jan 14 22:00 |
MinceR | therefore it still is one, even if it's a load of crap that's been to a great extent taken over by m$ drones. | Jan 14 22:00 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: They do a lot of things the FSF doesn't approve of | Jan 14 22:00 |
MinceR | :> | Jan 14 22:00 |
MinceR | maybe the FSF should kick them out | Jan 14 22:00 |
DaemonFC | it's clear where most of the GNOME people stand | Jan 14 22:00 |
DaemonFC | they should | Jan 14 22:00 |
MinceR | as of gnome3, i'm not sure how long they'll even be relevant | Jan 14 22:01 |
DaemonFC | it's obviously a marriage of convenience turned marriage from hell | Jan 14 22:01 |
DaemonFC | I think that the GNU project should start giving KDE a nod | Jan 14 22:01 |
DaemonFC | they're still promoting GNOME even though GNOME's goals are less in line with the FSF's than KDE's goals are | Jan 14 22:02 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: Could you ever see GNOME 3 on a RHEL desktop? | Jan 14 22:03 |
DaemonFC | as in, what a workstation is supposed to use | Jan 14 22:03 |
MinceR | i don't think i've seen an RHEL desktop at all, at least since it went E | Jan 14 22:04 |
MinceR | i think they should give XFCE a nod | Jan 14 22:04 |
DaemonFC | it's basically GNOME 2 with Metacity right now | Jan 14 22:04 |
MinceR | since it, you know, doesn't suck | Jan 14 22:04 |
DaemonFC | the only way to use XFCE on RHEL is with backported packages from Fedora | Jan 14 22:05 |
DaemonFC | :P | Jan 14 22:05 |
DaemonFC | they ship GNOME as the default and most of KDE as an "option" | Jan 14 22:06 |
DaemonFC | but without EPEL, KDE in RHEL is unusable | Jan 14 22:06 |
DaemonFC | there's so many useful KDE applications that RHEL doesn't package that without EPEL, you're going to have a very bad time | Jan 14 22:06 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: It'd be nice if XFCE didn't have such a hard dependence on X for so many things | Jan 14 22:08 |
MinceR | what do you mean? | Jan 14 22:08 |
DaemonFC | their compositor requires X | Jan 14 22:08 |
DaemonFC | KDE and GNOMEs don't | Jan 14 22:08 |
DaemonFC | their window manager, period, in XFCE, needs X | Jan 14 22:08 |
MinceR | XFCE's compositor actually works reliably | Jan 14 22:08 |
DaemonFC | KDE's and GNOME's don't | Jan 14 22:08 |
MinceR | besides, if you want a sane DE, you might as well use a sane windowing system | Jan 14 22:09 |
DaemonFC | the toolkit (GTK+ 2) needs X | Jan 14 22:09 |
DaemonFC | GTK and Qt don't | Jan 14 22:09 |
MinceR | what now? | Jan 14 22:09 |
MinceR | GTK needs X but GTK doesn't? | Jan 14 22:09 |
MinceR | what are you on? | Jan 14 22:09 |
DaemonFC | 3 | Jan 14 22:09 |
DaemonFC | GTK 3 doesn't | Jan 14 22:09 |
DaemonFC | damn you | Jan 14 22:09 |
DaemonFC | :P | Jan 14 22:09 |
DaemonFC | the more stuff avoids or doesn't need X, the better their position when it comes time to leave X | Jan 14 22:10 |
MinceR | yes, when. | Jan 14 22:10 |
DaemonFC | XFCE has said they will still be using GTK 2 in their next release | Jan 14 22:10 |
MinceR | GTK 2 isn't going to go away soon | Jan 14 22:10 |
MinceR | and the WM can be replaced if you hate it so much | Jan 14 22:11 |
MinceR | then again, where would yo go? | Jan 14 22:11 |
MinceR | s/yo/you/ | Jan 14 22:11 |
DaemonFC | well, there's kwin, but that has a lot of KDE dependencies | Jan 14 22:11 |
MinceR | (on one of my installs, i run XFCE with OpenBox and xcompmgr) | Jan 14 22:11 |
DaemonFC | Mutter wouldn't work outside GNOME at all | Jan 14 22:11 |
DaemonFC | OpenBox is worse than xfwm | Jan 14 22:11 |
DaemonFC | Compiz is not even up for consideration | Jan 14 22:12 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jan 14 22:12 |
DaemonFC | Compiz managed to screw the pooch with their C++ rewrite | Jan 14 22:12 |
MinceR | so basically your argument is "XFCE sucks because i can't turn my system into a crash parade using kwin or compiz" | Jan 14 22:12 |
DaemonFC | and it still depends on OpenGL 1.x | Jan 14 22:12 |
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[ovigia/@ovigia] ♺ @schestowitz: 'German cities following Munich's open source example' http://ur1.ca/7g888 | Jan 14 22:12 | |
DaemonFC | kwin isn't a crash parade | Jan 14 22:13 |
MinceR | for "bling over functionality", gnome3, kde and unity are still around | Jan 14 22:13 |
DaemonFC | GNOME 3 and Unity suck hard | Jan 14 22:13 |
DaemonFC | KDE is the only option out of those | Jan 14 22:13 |
MinceR | kwin likes to crash when the number of monitors changes | Jan 14 22:13 |
MinceR | it also is horribly glitchy if you turn off compositing | Jan 14 22:13 |
MinceR | and it can't render the root window in compositing mode if plasma-desktop isn't running, which is even less stable than kwin | Jan 14 22:14 |
DaemonFC | kwin got a lot of work recently | Jan 14 22:14 |
*DaemonFC is usually using something newer than stable releases on stuff that interests him | Jan 14 22:15 | |
DaemonFC | The edgiest that Debian Sid ever manages to get is between 1-3 releases of KDE ago | Jan 14 22:15 |

schestowitz | i used fedora kde last year | Jan 14 22:17 |

DaemonFC | rpmhell? | Jan 14 22:18 |
schestowitz | broken octave package | Jan 14 22:18 |
schestowitz | so then I thought about virtualising mint 10 under it | Jan 14 22:18 |
DaemonFC | there's been a couple of upstream releases of RPM since then | Jan 14 22:18 |
schestowitz | but the rpm of virtualbox didn't work | Jan 14 22:18 |
DaemonFC | one of the biggest things to land recently is all RPMs in Fedora use XZ compression | Jan 14 22:18 |
DaemonFC | VirtualBox is a kmod | Jan 14 22:19 |
DaemonFC | there's no telling what it will cause Linux to do | Jan 14 22:19 |
DaemonFC | it's all out of tree | Jan 14 22:19 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: Having VirtualBox installed taints your kernel | Jan 14 22:22 |
DaemonFC | and invalidates all your kernel panic and oops reports | Jan 14 22:22 |
DaemonFC | basically, if anything you want to install in Fedora calls itself an akmod or a kmod, you should stop and find out WHY before you install it | Jan 14 22:23 |
DaemonFC | if it's not part of the kernel, there's probably a reason | Jan 14 22:23 |
DaemonFC | they split off the staging drivers into a kmod for example | Jan 14 22:24 |
DaemonFC | and proprietary drivers are a kmod in RPM Fusion | Jan 14 22:24 |
DaemonFC | they all taint the kernel too | Jan 14 22:24 |
DaemonFC | Debian and Ubuntu build the staging drivers, all of them, and include them in the kernel package without warning | Jan 14 22:25 |
DaemonFC | then fail to warn you about proprietary drivers too | Jan 14 22:25 |
DaemonFC | Ubuntu considers drivers that crash your system, open up security holes, and exhibit strange bugs a "feature" | Jan 14 22:26 |
DaemonFC | usually, stuff in staging is there because it's broken | Jan 14 22:26 |

DaemonFC | one of the better ones | Jan 14 23:41 |
MinceR | must be great | Jan 14 23:43 |
DaemonFC | I found out how to exploit their level up system a little bit | Jan 14 23:43 |
DaemonFC | each structure on an enemy base that you destroy, you gain experience points | Jan 14 23:43 |
DaemonFC | so I order my units to only attack resource dumps, command and control centers, and only stop to destroy non critical buildings and enemy units that get in their way | Jan 14 23:44 |
DaemonFC | the more non-critical units you destroy, the faster you level up | Jan 14 23:44 |
DaemonFC | over time I've probably managed to avoid leveling up 5-6 times, so I am facing other players that don't have units that are a match for mine or my base defense network | Jan 14 23:45 |
DaemonFC | B-) | Jan 14 23:45 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: It kind of takes some of the fun out of the game though | Jan 14 23:46 |
DaemonFC | other players assume they are a match for my base and then their units usually end up destroyed within 30 seconds of initiating their attack | Jan 14 23:46 |
DaemonFC | I've concentrated on a better defense network than offensive units | Jan 14 23:47 |
DaemonFC | so I don't have mega tanks, but my base defense network can easily defend my base against several enemy mega tanks | Jan 14 23:47 |
