prurigroDaemonFC, thanks for mentioning clementine-- that's honestly like the best music player everFeb 12 00:09
prurigroI can't believe it works with my digitally imported subscription!Feb 12 00:10
prurigroand I think its the only music player out there right now that works with projectMFeb 12 00:10
prurigrolike, without having to run it through pulse or phonon or somethingFeb 12 00:10
brendyni was using it but then it got removed from parabola ;/Feb 12 00:14
brendynprurigro: any idea how to download flash vids of a random site?Feb 12 00:15
prurigrobrendyn, surely it could be compiled with only support for free stuff?Feb 12 00:16
prurigrobrendyn, hmm, it depends on the site-- I've had good luck with various plugins for various sitesFeb 12 00:16
prurigrothey all seem to cater to a particular set of playersFeb 12 00:16
brendyncan you try one of these vids? http://www.webofstories.com/story/search?q=donald+knuth&sp=1038Feb 12 00:16
brendyn"“clementine::asks to download an unfree plugin to support spotify [[354]]” so if that line was removed from the package then clementine-libre would be ok. You can take a look at source."Feb 12 00:18
prurigroahh wordFeb 12 00:18
prurigrobasically: easy fix, but no time- someone else do itFeb 12 00:18
prurigroI was actually considering the removal of all the services I didn't useFeb 12 00:18
prurigrosince you can't disable themFeb 12 00:19
DaemonFCClementine includes the Spotify plug-in in their Ubuntu packageFeb 12 00:19
DaemonFCif it bothers you, delete the plug-in and Clementine still worksFeb 12 00:19
prurigrooh are the compiled separately?Feb 12 00:19
DaemonFCor grab the source code, the source code tarball doesn't include that blobFeb 12 00:19
brendynwell a -libre package needs to be made or i compile it myselfFeb 12 00:20
DaemonFCyeah, the spotify blob is a shared objectFeb 12 00:20
DaemonFCif it's not there, it's not there, the rest of the Clementine software still worksFeb 12 00:20
prurigrosweetFeb 12 00:21
prurigroclementine is too awesome to not have that capability, thinking about it :)Feb 12 00:21
DaemonFCI don't use that blob, I deleted my spotify account after my free trial was uoFeb 12 00:22
DaemonFC*upFeb 12 00:22
brendynso have they added much or is it just the old amarok?Feb 12 00:22
DaemonFCif they released a client under an open source license, or had a public API implemented by media players, then I'd probably change my mindFeb 12 00:22
DaemonFCbut right now you not only need nonfree software, it's the Windows version in WineFeb 12 00:22
DaemonFC(or you can use their nonfree Clementine blobFeb 12 00:23
prurigrobrendyn, they seem to have made an entirely new product to replace the original amarok?Feb 12 00:23
DaemonFCLast.FM has an API for media players and an official client under the GPLFeb 12 00:23
prurigrolike, the new amarok doesn't look much like this, does it?Feb 12 00:23
DaemonFCthey started with Amarok 1.4Feb 12 00:23
prurigrobut this is qt4Feb 12 00:24
prurigrowasn't amarok 1.x qt3?Feb 12 00:24
DaemonFCthe biggest changes are that it was ported to Qt4, its dependencies on kdelibs are gone, and it uses Gstreamer instead of XineFeb 12 00:24
prurigroahh word, yea-- see, that's what amarok shoulda doneFeb 12 00:24
prurigroimhoFeb 12 00:24
prurigroI thought it was a great media player, minus maybe kde reqs when running in xfce or somethingFeb 12 00:24
DaemonFCcertain KDE developers are insaneFeb 12 00:25
prurigrooh?Feb 12 00:25
DaemonFCyou have them talking about private copies of kdelibs functionality nowFeb 12 00:25
prurigroper app?Feb 12 00:25
DaemonFCso you could end up with KDE on *nix getting fatter so that they can more easily make standalone Windows and OS X softwareFeb 12 00:25
DaemonFCyeahFeb 12 00:25
prurigroyea, that's not cool with me at allFeb 12 00:26
prurigrodo like gtk-- make a .dll you can throw in the directory of a kde app getting portedFeb 12 00:26
prurigroand leave it at thatFeb 12 00:26
DaemonFCthey already try to accommodate every broken compiler out thereFeb 12 00:26
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[laurelrusswurm/@laurelrusswurm] Hey !lazyweb ⇒Looking for #freesoftware video editing suggestions [still photo/cut 2 music animation w/HD webM output !SelfPub #BookTrailerFeb 12 00:26
prurigrobroken =?Feb 12 00:26
DaemonFClike MS Visual Studio and Sun StudioFeb 12 00:26
DaemonFCwhich are nonfree and badly out of complianceFeb 12 00:26
DaemonFCif they want to target compilers, the only ones worth targeting are GCC and ClangFeb 12 00:27
prurigrohaha, I figured you were gonna say visual studio :)Feb 12 00:27
DaemonFCa lot of KDE stuff still depends on GNU AutocrapFeb 12 00:27
DaemonFC:)Feb 12 00:27
DaemonFCwhen it should all be moved over to sconsFeb 12 00:27
prurigroscons?Feb 12 00:28
DaemonFChttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SConsFeb 12 00:28
prurigrois that another, more cross platform cmake like setup?Feb 12 00:28
prurigroahh coolFeb 12 00:28
DaemonFCyeahFeb 12 00:28
prurigrocmake works well tooFeb 12 00:28
DaemonFCexcept that it's fucking hugeFeb 12 00:28
prurigroyou can get it to generate xcode and visual studio packages iircFeb 12 00:29
prurigroand yea?Feb 12 00:29
DaemonFCMesa uses sconsFeb 12 00:29
prurigro28 megsFeb 12 00:29
DaemonFCthey've deleted everything related to AutocrapFeb 12 00:29
prurigrofor a text based app, yea, that's pretty bigFeb 12 00:29
prurigroand lolFeb 12 00:29
prurigroautogen.sh?Feb 12 00:29
DaemonFChttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoconf#CriticismFeb 12 00:30
DaemonFCshell script execution speed depends a lot on what shell you have executing itFeb 12 00:30
prurigroI'll admitFeb 12 00:30
DaemonFCbash is not greatFeb 12 00:31
prurigroits a lot of setup when you're not trying to make a huge appFeb 12 00:31
DaemonFCand it extends POSIXFeb 12 00:31
prurigroI love bashFeb 12 00:31
prurigrobut not for everythingFeb 12 00:31
DaemonFCI have /bin/zsh as my login shell and as /bin/shFeb 12 00:31
DaemonFC:)Feb 12 00:31
prurigrohahaFeb 12 00:31
brendynyou said you had kshFeb 12 00:32
prurigrozsh can run most sh anyway no?Feb 12 00:32
DaemonFCwhen called as sh, zsh runs as a korn shellFeb 12 00:32
DaemonFCso I actually decided to just switch from korn to zsh as shFeb 12 00:32
DaemonFCif you call /bin/sh and it's a symlink to /bin/zsh you have the functionality of Korn 93Feb 12 00:33
DaemonFCUbuntu defaults to dash as /bin/shFeb 12 00:33
DaemonFCall you have to do is delete /bin/sh and make a new symlink to whatever you really want as shFeb 12 00:33
*amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)Feb 12 00:34
DaemonFCDebian still uses bash as sh, so if you switch to a POSIX compliant shell as sh, your system won't bootFeb 12 00:34
DaemonFC:)Feb 12 00:34

DaemonFCprurigro: Since Ubuntu's startup scripts are POSIX compliant, you can use any shell that is POSIX compliantFeb 12 00:37
prurigroahh wordFeb 12 00:38
DaemonFCincluding bash, but I don't know why you wouldFeb 12 00:38
scientesuggghhhhFeb 12 00:38
prurigrohaha, well, bash is comfyFeb 12 00:38
scientessystemd FTWFeb 12 00:38
scientesbut yeah, dash is fasterFeb 12 00:38
scientesand you still use bash as your shellFeb 12 00:38
scientesbut systemd is the real answerFeb 12 00:38
DaemonFCyou can leave bash installed and just not use itFeb 12 00:39
brendynbash is copyleft, zsh isntFeb 12 00:39
scientesprurigro, are you contemplating removing bash?Feb 12 00:40
DaemonFCand then if a script fails to run because it failed to declare that it's not POSIX compliant and needs bash, you can put a shebang in it to call bash to run the script then exitFeb 12 00:40
scientescmake pulled in some crazy dependancies for when i was building somethingFeb 12 00:40
DaemonFCApple never should have used bashFeb 12 00:40
DaemonFCthey've gotten themselves in a real pickleFeb 12 00:40
DaemonFCnow they can't get rid of it or anyone that wrote a script using bashisms will have their scripts fail to runFeb 12 00:41
scienteswhats wrong with bash?Feb 12 00:41
prurigroscientes, I keep getting systemd mixed up recently-- which one is the one that apple uses? and which uses rc.d?Feb 12 00:41
prurigroscientes, I'm not really ready to remove bash atm-- DaemonFC was making his case thoughFeb 12 00:41
scientesprurigro, apple uses launchd, systemd was heavily inspired by launchd---old venerable sysvinit uses rc.d--however debian improved it with dependancy based bootingFeb 12 00:41
DaemonFCI think that something that extends POSIX shell is not a good thingFeb 12 00:41
scientesprurigro, what are you trying to do?Feb 12 00:41
DaemonFCthey're trying to trap people with bash by using the tactics of Internet ExplorerFeb 12 00:42
scientessystemd is clearly the futureFeb 12 00:42
prurigroahh, I like sysv thenFeb 12 00:42
scientesand is clearly superior, than horrible sysv init scripts---in /etc/init.d/fooFeb 12 00:42
prurigroand I really dislike systemd/launchdFeb 12 00:42
scientesthat are impossible to changeFeb 12 00:42
scientesand create so many fork() system callsFeb 12 00:42
scienteswhat distro are you using?Feb 12 00:42
prurigroscientes, if you mean me-- archFeb 12 00:43
scienteshttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/SystemdFeb 12 00:43
scientessystemd supports sysv init scriptsFeb 12 00:43
DaemonFCit happens sometimes that among free software, the GPL'd software is not as good as the MIT or BSD licensed softwareFeb 12 00:43
DaemonFCor even MPL or CDDLFeb 12 00:43
brendyni heard they doint work too well thoughFeb 12 00:43
DaemonFCor tons of other free licensesFeb 12 00:43
DaemonFCif that's the case, then it just becomes a case of political correctness that causes distros to ship the GPL'd softwareFeb 12 00:44
prurigroscientes, ohh kk, well then, basically, I like having rc.d for custom launch scriptsFeb 12 00:44
brendynwhich is the better one out of the libtorrents?Feb 12 00:44
scientesprurigro, you mean /etc/rc.local?Feb 12 00:44
prurigroscientes, but if arch uses systemd and works with those, then I'm cool with it :)Feb 12 00:44
scientesoh yeah same thing---systemd supports thatFeb 12 00:44
prurigroscientes, /etc/rc.d/*Feb 12 00:45
prurigrowhy doesn't ubuntu work with those then?Feb 12 00:45
scientesbut systemd also have /etc/tmpfiles.d/ so you don't have all this ugly bash shit with mkdir -p, etcFeb 12 00:45
scientesand also a build-in tmpreaper that ----well, not sure there are security implications of tmp reapingFeb 12 00:45
prurigroscientes, oh was that why back in the day you'd have /etc/init.d/rc0, 1, 2 etc?Feb 12 00:46
scientesyou should install systemd and start trying it outFeb 12 00:46
scientesits much more flexible than the old runlevel systemFeb 12 00:46
DaemonFCI don't see anything wrong with using permissively licensed free software, if I did I wouldn't be using a lot of thingsFeb 12 00:46
DaemonFCso if there's a better shell than bash and it's under a permissive license, I'll use itFeb 12 00:46
DaemonFCand that shell is zshFeb 12 00:46
scientesand fasterFeb 12 00:46
scientesand cleanerFeb 12 00:46
prurigroscientes, oh hmm, so I am using the old setup--- I dunno, is it just gonna be changing backend stuff? or am I gonna need to move my configuration around?Feb 12 00:47
DaemonFCthe GPL political correctness has wedged GPL'd software in as a replacement for something better that everyone had already more or less standardized on beforeFeb 12 00:47
DaemonFCLILO v. GRUB LegacyFeb 12 00:47
DaemonFCthe fact that GRUB 2 became usable 8 years later isn't going to cut itFeb 12 00:47
DaemonFCyou're arguing that the ends justify the means at that pointFeb 12 00:47
DaemonFCof course there's certainly examples of permissive licensing causing disasters Feb 12 00:47
DaemonFC(FreeBSD)Feb 12 00:47
scientesit will work out-of-the box with your existing sytem, however it wont have a big improvement on boot speeds until it gets used moreFeb 12 00:48
prurigroDaemonFC, arch employs lots of MIT stuff that kicks the crap out of GPL stuff, like tmux vs screenFeb 12 00:48
scientesfedora where it is getting pushed the hardestFeb 12 00:48
DaemonFCif Linux had been under the BSD, it would have been dozens of companies grabbing the Linux code and burying a private fork into proprietary UNIX systemsFeb 12 00:48
DaemonFCGPL 2 stopped that and centered development around one unified Linux kernelFeb 12 00:48
scientesDaemonFC is a troll, you have to always keep that in mindFeb 12 00:48
prurigroDaemonFC, err, BSD for tmux, rather, not MIT :)Feb 12 00:49
prurigrohaha, everyone says that, but I haven't seen anything I'd say was for sure trolling from DaemonFC Feb 12 00:50
prurigroexcept in relation to Diablo-D3 Feb 12 00:50
Diablo-D3bsd, mit, same differenceFeb 12 00:51
DaemonFChmmm, actually zsh is a hard link to zsh4Feb 12 00:51
prurigroDiablo-D3, isn't MIT a bit more open?Feb 12 00:51
*DaemonFC rearranges everything to point to zsh4Feb 12 00:51
Diablo-D32, 3, 4 clause bsd, MIT, X, zlib, isc, all part of the bsd familyFeb 12 00:51
DaemonFCthis hardlink symling crap gets confusingFeb 12 00:51
prurigrooh interestingFeb 12 00:51
DaemonFCthey pretty much all just declare that they own the copyright and their notice must be preservedFeb 12 00:52
prurigroit feels like more web stuff uses MIT though, while software typically shoots for BSDFeb 12 00:52
DaemonFCand now you can do anything you want with the software, including making nuclear bombs to drop on AustraliaFeb 12 00:52
DaemonFCB-)Feb 12 00:52
Diablo-D3prurigro: no, MIT is a 3 clause BSD license, depending on which oneFeb 12 00:52
brendynnot australia :[Feb 12 00:52
Diablo-D3the current X license is still a 4 clause BSD licenseFeb 12 00:52
prurigroDiablo-D3, does that mean cut down, of there's a 4th clause?Feb 12 00:53
prurigroand surely that would be an important difference?Feb 12 00:53
Diablo-D3the 4th clause is the advertising clauseFeb 12 00:53
prurigrooh hmFeb 12 00:53
DaemonFCthat's wrongFeb 12 00:53
prurigroso you can advertise for MIT stuff, but not 4th clause BSD?Feb 12 00:53
Diablo-D3almost nothing uses 4 clause BSD Feb 12 00:53
DaemonFChe's talking about the XFree86 1.1 licenseFeb 12 00:53
DaemonFCthat's the one with the advertising clauseFeb 12 00:53
DaemonFCX.org never had thatFeb 12 00:53
Diablo-D34 clause is not GPL compatible, btwFeb 12 00:54
DaemonFCX.org forked the last code under the XFree86 1.0 licenseFeb 12 00:54
Diablo-D3but a LOT of shit dropped it in favor of 3 clauseFeb 12 00:54
DaemonFCand so it never got the advertising clauseFeb 12 00:54
DaemonFCand 4 clause is GPL compatibleFeb 12 00:54
DaemonFCGPL 3Feb 12 00:54
DaemonFCnot 2 thoughFeb 12 00:54
prurigrodoes the 4th say advertising = good or bad?Feb 12 00:55
Diablo-D3badFeb 12 00:55
DaemonFCGPL 2 flat out states that you can't make any requirements that are not in the GPL 2Feb 12 00:55
DaemonFCGPL 3 eases up on that requirement so licenses with the advertising clause or ones that say you ahve to ask permission to use their trade marks, are now compatibleFeb 12 00:55
prurigrointeresting-- I feel like advertising shouldn't have anything to do with anythingFeb 12 00:55
prurigrodefine advertising, you knowFeb 12 00:56
Diablo-D3erm, dude, the license IS publicFeb 12 00:56
Diablo-D3https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BSD_licenses#4-clauseFeb 12 00:56
DaemonFCif you make a release manual, documentation, or marketing packet, and tehre's an advertising clause, it means you must list everyone that contributed code you are using under such terms in your materialsFeb 12 00:56
prurigrotrue, I guess I was being lazy for the sake of conversation :)Feb 12 00:56
DaemonFCat one point, NetBSD had to list 72 individuals and companies in their manuals and advertising materialsFeb 12 00:57
DaemonFC:)Feb 12 00:57
prurigroohh wordFeb 12 00:57
DaemonFCthey ended up rewriting some stuff themselves to get out of that requirementFeb 12 00:57
Diablo-D3oh, and I forgot, ASL2Feb 12 00:57
DaemonFCthat's why RMS says advertising clauses are obnoxiousFeb 12 00:57
Diablo-D3a 3 clause BSD with GPL3-esque patent languageFeb 12 00:57
DaemonFCbut htey don't make the software nonfreeFeb 12 00:57
prurigrothat sounds fair, unless we're talking about product placement or somethingFeb 12 00:57
Diablo-D3prurigro: basically it prevented people from complying with the copyrightFeb 12 00:58
DaemonFCthe original BSD code is still under that 4 clause licenseFeb 12 00:58
Diablo-D3like, if you said your program, say, used berkleybdFeb 12 00:58
DaemonFCthat's why you see stuff mention the Regents of the University of CaliforniaFeb 12 00:58
Diablo-D3you'd be in violation of the 4th clauseFeb 12 00:58
Diablo-D3just by saying itFeb 12 00:58
Diablo-D3it was insane and nonsensicalFeb 12 00:58
prurigroDiablo-D3, it feels like its saying the opposite?Feb 12 00:58
Diablo-D3yeah, thats the hilarity of itFeb 12 00:59
DaemonFCas more and more people contribute under those terms, the list of people you have to mention in your manuals and advertising materials grows and growsFeb 12 00:59
Diablo-D3what they meant and what it does are two different thingsFeb 12 00:59
*DaemonFC has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)Feb 12 00:59
prurigrooh man, this is why I never went into lawFeb 12 00:59
prurigrocomputers, typically, are doing what they look like they're supposed to doFeb 12 00:59
Diablo-D3read the part where netbsd needed 75 agreements to just ship the distroFeb 12 01:00
prurigroholy crap hahaFeb 12 01:00
prurigroopen source would never get off the groundFeb 12 01:00
Diablo-D3yeah exactlyFeb 12 01:00
Diablo-D3everyone rejected the 4th clause because its absurdFeb 12 01:00
prurigrono kidding ehFeb 12 01:00
*DaemonFC (~daemonfc@unaffiliated/daemonfc) has joined #techrightsFeb 12 01:01
prurigrosounds like it was made in an era that hadn't had the imagination for our ownFeb 12 01:01
prurigrostallman is interest ingFeb 12 01:01
prurigrosometimes he seems wayy too hardcoreFeb 12 01:01
DaemonFCpurging the original BSD license from a BSD distribution would include the task of rewriting hundreds of thousands of lines of codeFeb 12 01:01
DaemonFCso their goal is to get rid of all the trivial things that use itFeb 12 01:02
DaemonFCand not include moreFeb 12 01:02
prurigrobut other times he's quite liberal on an area like this, and I usually agree with his sentimentsFeb 12 01:02
Diablo-D3the original X license (a MIT descendant) is a 4 clause BSDFeb 12 01:02
prurigroDaemonFC, that sounds like a good plan-- you're talking about including the 4th clause?Feb 12 01:02
Diablo-D3Xorg has been eradicating that stupidity where availableFeb 12 01:03
prurigroDiablo-D3, how did X get out of that?Feb 12 01:03
prurigroahhFeb 12 01:03
DaemonFChttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X11_LicenseFeb 12 01:03
prurigroso its still somewhat trapped?Feb 12 01:03
Diablo-D3I mean, technically, it was never a problemFeb 12 01:03
DaemonFCthere is no advertising clauseFeb 12 01:03
Diablo-D3everyone ignored itFeb 12 01:03
DaemonFChe's talking about the XFree86 1.1 licenseFeb 12 01:03
DaemonFCwhich never affected X.org in any wayFeb 12 01:03

Diablo-D3but usually when someone says mit license, they specifically mean the expat license, which is a modified 3 clauseFeb 12 01:04

DaemonFCthe X Consortium license, which is the one X.org uses doesn't have any advertising clauseFeb 12 01:05
Diablo-D3otoh, you have shit like isc, which is a 2 clause BSD written in englishFeb 12 01:05
prurigroDiablo-D3, haha, I figured as much-- and its been interesting responding to both of you considering that :)Feb 12 01:05
prurigroand hmm, and in law, a clause is one paragraph?Feb 12 01:06

DaemonFCthey'd rather shoot themselves in the foot than do anything that would help free softwareFeb 12 04:01
DaemonFCas a perverse side effect of the nature of free software, code that AMD and Intel donate to Mesa is making Nvidia cards work better with it too even though Nvidia is a very antisocial company that loves blobs and DRM and other fun stuffFeb 12 04:02

DaemonFC:)Feb 12 05:15
DaemonFCand you can have it automatically correct that misspelling tooFeb 12 05:16
DaemonFCso every time I say moar it runs the command more without asking meFeb 12 05:16
DaemonFCif I tell it to autocorrect Feb 12 05:16

DaemonFCI was reading some stuff written by David Korn earlierFeb 12 05:25
DaemonFCit turns out he pwned a Microsoft representative at USENIX back in 2000Feb 12 05:26
DaemonFCMicrosoft was there to pimp out their "Services For UNIX" layer for Windows and claimed they had a real Korn shell in it, and he managed to interject and mention that it was not the real korn shellFeb 12 05:27
DaemonFCand the Microsoft representative didn't recognize that he was David KornFeb 12 05:27
DaemonFCand proceeded to argue with him that it was a real korn shellFeb 12 05:27
DaemonFC:)Feb 12 05:27
DaemonFChttp://news.slashdot.org/story/01/02/06/2030205/david-korn-tells-allFeb 12 05:30
prurigrohahaFeb 12 05:30
prurigrothat's pretty funnyFeb 12 05:30
DaemonFC"There are two different areas of functionality in shells. First is interactive use and the second is scripting. Much of the debate about shells has focused on interactive use only. For example, tcsh is an acceptable shell for interactive use but practically unusable for scripting."Feb 12 05:31
prurigrocomputer celebrities don't typically get as much of their face into the masses do theyFeb 12 05:31
DaemonFCOS X used to ship with tcshFeb 12 05:31
DaemonFCprurigro: He produced a book on the Korn Shell, and got one signed by all the members of the band KoRn Feb 12 05:32
DaemonFChe walks around in KoRn t-shirts a lotFeb 12 05:32
prurigrohahaFeb 12 05:32
prurigrowas that his original last name?Feb 12 05:32
DaemonFCyesFeb 12 05:32
DaemonFCKorn is his last nameFeb 12 05:33
DaemonFCso he thinks it's funny to walk around in KoRn (the band) t-shirtsFeb 12 05:33
DaemonFCprurigro: I've ran into some fairly annoying bugs that were introduced into Amarok 2.5Feb 12 05:34
DaemonFCthat's why I have been using Clementine more recentlyFeb 12 05:35
prurigroclementine is just better too, imhoFeb 12 05:35
prurigroprojectmFeb 12 05:35
prurigroaloneFeb 12 05:35
prurigrois enough reason to use itFeb 12 05:35
prurigrobut the old ui was so much better (amarok's)Feb 12 05:35
DaemonFCspecifically, the "lyrics" window in Amarok has a nasty habit of not filling the entire info pane and forms this tiny non-resizable box insteadFeb 12 05:35
DaemonFCand then the Wikipedia info pane sometimes causes Amarok to just crash nowFeb 12 05:36
DaemonFCand it has done this to me on Fedora tooFeb 12 05:36
DaemonFCAmarok's transcoder is based on ffmpegFeb 12 05:36
DaemonFCthere's another strike against AmarokFeb 12 05:36
DaemonFCnot all distros can even package ffmpegFeb 12 05:36
DaemonFCso if that's the case, the transcoder won't work at allFeb 12 05:36
DaemonFCClementine can transcode between any format you have a Gstreamer plug-in forFeb 12 05:37
DaemonFCthen there's a new plug-in that encourages users to buy MP3s and fund Amazon, the MAFIAA, and the Thomson/Technicolor patent troll all at the same timeFeb 12 05:38
DaemonFCand isn't even available to more than half the countries in the worldFeb 12 05:38
prurigrooh manFeb 12 05:39
prurigrospeaking of that actuallyFeb 12 05:39
prurigroare the store plugins all modules for clementine too?Feb 12 05:39
prurigroI haven't bothered checking yetFeb 12 05:39
DaemonFCit has a Magnatune plug inFeb 12 05:40
DaemonFCsorry, I should have mentioned that obnoxious MP3 store plug-in is in AmarokFeb 12 05:41
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[eebrah/@eebrah] I will never use the term #nerdgasm ever .... well ever again ... but you know what it is and you know when it happensFeb 12 05:41
DaemonFCnot Clementine (yet anyway, but how far away could it be now that they support a Spotify blob?)Feb 12 05:41
DaemonFCI think the referral codes from media players that support the Amazon MP3 store gets them like 1% of whatever the user spends on MP3s thereFeb 12 05:42
DaemonFCso apparently assisting patent trolls, the MAFIAA, and Amazon is worth a 1% revenue share to AmarokFeb 12 05:42
DaemonFCnothing you do will make the MAFIAA changeFeb 12 05:44
DaemonFCif you don't buy anything from them, they'll say the loss in sales was due to piracyFeb 12 05:44

DaemonFCthen AT&T agreed to release them under the Common Public LicenseFeb 12 06:05
DaemonFChttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Public_LicenseFeb 12 06:06
DaemonFCso they've been under this license since around 2000Feb 12 06:06
DaemonFCIf Recipient institutes patent litigation against a Contributor with respect to a patent applicable to software (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit), then any patent licenses granted by that Contributor to such Recipient under this Agreement shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed. In addition, if Recipient institutes patent litigation against any entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) Feb 12 06:08

DaemonFCoh niceFeb 12 06:08
DaemonFCso if a contributor makes a code contribution and patent grant, then decides to sue you over the patent in question, you immediately lose the patent grant they gave you Feb 12 06:09
DaemonFCany disputes for the code under this license have to be filed in a court in the state of New YorkFeb 12 06:11
DaemonFC and each party has to waive their right to a jury and have a judge or arbitrator hear the caseFeb 12 06:11

DaemonFCyou can file a supprot ticket with them on itFeb 12 06:14
DaemonFC*supportFeb 12 06:14
DaemonFCinterestingFeb 12 06:14
DaemonFCI wonder why they moved it to MainFeb 12 06:14

prurigrohmmFeb 12 06:18
prurigroso they provide bash by default, but fully support znh?Feb 12 06:18
prurigrozsh*?Feb 12 06:18
DaemonFCyesFeb 12 06:19
DaemonFCthey let you open paid support incidents on zshFeb 12 06:19
DaemonFCand they will update it through 2017 in 12.04 ltsFeb 12 06:19
DaemonFCto fix bugs and security problems anywayFeb 12 06:20
DaemonFCthere's only a few things in the entire distribution that they make exceptions for, for major releasesFeb 12 06:20
DaemonFCone of them is Firefox, and I really disagree with thatFeb 12 06:21
DaemonFCin an LTS, they should be following Firefox ESR, not the rapid release versionsFeb 12 06:21
DaemonFCwhen you follow rapid releases like that, you have the potential to pull in a new, barely tested Firefox release in which thousands of lines of code has been added, changed, or removedFeb 12 06:22
DaemonFCand it might have some embarrassing bugsFeb 12 06:22
DaemonFCFirefox 7.0 was eating peoples extensions for exampleFeb 12 06:22
DaemonFC:)Feb 12 06:22
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[laurelrusswurm/@laurelrusswurm] Good morning by the way !tzagFeb 12 06:23
DaemonFCso I think enterprise customers are going to end up trying to use Mozilla's official ESR binaries which are fucked in the same exact ways that all official Mozilla binaries areFeb 12 06:23
DaemonFCand then they'll find out pretty quickly what kind of problems that Mozilla's binaries bring inFeb 12 06:23
DaemonFCand that Canonical won't support it since it didn't come from themFeb 12 06:24
DaemonFCMozilla is really pretty obnoxious and unfriendly to Linux distributions that aren't willing to lap up anything Mozilla puts out, on Mozilla's termsFeb 12 06:24
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[laurelrusswurm/@laurelrusswurm] RT @x11r5 jajajajaaja yo también es interesante. :PFeb 12 06:24
DaemonFCit's why a lot of distributions that are sick of dealing with Mozilla's legal department give up and ship Mozilla software minus the brandingFeb 12 06:25
DaemonFCfrankly I think that if the don't cut that shit out, then most distros are going to start shipping Chromium insteadFeb 12 06:25
DaemonFCGoogle doesn't really care what you do to itFeb 12 06:25
DaemonFCyou still get to call it ChromiumFeb 12 06:26
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[laurelrusswurm/@laurelrusswurm] Why @x11r5, you have a remarkably fine singing voice.Feb 12 06:26
DaemonFCMozilla's hostility towards Debian has led Debian to maintaining a rolling fork of Mozilla's softwareFeb 12 06:26
DaemonFCthat's not newsFeb 12 06:26
DaemonFCwhat comes as a surprise to most people is that Mozilla lets Red Hat do pretty much whatever they want and keep calling it Mozilla FirefoxFeb 12 06:27
DaemonFCand that Ubuntu is carrying all the patches from Debian IceWeasel and some of their own and get to call it FirefoxFeb 12 06:27
DaemonFCso the Mozilla/Debian incident is a clear case of Mozilla bullying DebianFeb 12 06:27
prurigrohmmFeb 12 06:28
DaemonFCI'm just using Opera full time until the Chromium repositories start building again or Ubuntu rolls Chromium 17Feb 12 06:29

prurigroubuntu doesn'thave chromium 17 yet?Feb 12 06:29
DaemonFCI mentioned a fairly annoying, obvious bug in #firefox on irc.mozilla.orgFeb 12 06:29
DaemonFCand  they responded by kicking me from the roomFeb 12 06:29
DaemonFCand telling me not to mention their bugs in thereFeb 12 06:29
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[laurelrusswurm/@laurelrusswurm] I wouldn't mind green beans except that they seem to squeak against my teeth.Feb 12 06:29
DaemonFCthe bug is a security issueFeb 12 06:30
DaemonFCand has been like this since at least Firefox 7Feb 12 06:30
DaemonFCand it affects Seamonkey from around 2.3 to currentFeb 12 06:30
DaemonFCthey're not fixing itFeb 12 06:30
DaemonFCit's trivial to exploitFeb 12 06:30
DaemonFCwhen it causes a crash, it could lead to memory corruption and running arbitrary codeFeb 12 06:31
DaemonFCit affects EVERY platform they run onFeb 12 06:31
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[laurelrusswurm/@laurelrusswurm] !tzag and good morning to you too, @vk7hse Though technically morning here, it is still dead dark, and will be for another 6 hours or so :)Feb 12 06:31

DaemonFCprurigro: Ubuntu is providing Chromium 16 in 12.04 right nowFeb 12 06:32
DaemonFCI need at least 17Feb 12 06:32
DaemonFC17 adds one MAJOR new feature that I really really really needFeb 12 06:32
DaemonFCand one minor enhancement that makes it more pleasant to use in KDEFeb 12 06:32
DaemonFC:)Feb 12 06:32
DaemonFCthe major feature is that the webrequest API has been enhanced and moved out of the Experimental API batchFeb 12 06:33
DaemonFCso ad blockers now work 100% correctlyFeb 12 06:33
DaemonFC(at least Chrome Adblock does, I'm not sure what Adblock Plus is doing and I don't care)Feb 12 06:33
DaemonFCand the minor enhancement is that it detects that it's running under KDE and uses KDE file dialogsFeb 12 06:34
DaemonFCso Chromium 17 is the minimum version I would use as a daily browserFeb 12 06:34
DaemonFCwithout full support for ad blocking, the web becomes practically unusable Feb 12 06:34
DaemonFCthe KDE file dialogs are just nice to haveFeb 12 06:35
DaemonFCif Chromium 16 supported the Web Request API by default and to the extent 17 does, I'd already be using itFeb 12 06:35
DaemonFCbut it doesn't :)Feb 12 06:35
prurigroDaemonFC, yea, it feels like months since I've bene using 17Feb 12 06:36
prurigroisn't there a build floating around?Feb 12 06:36
DaemonFCalso, Chromium/Chrome and Opera are the only browsers that support OpenGL, OpenGL ES, and WebGL properly and in total on LinuxFeb 12 06:36
DaemonFCFirefox uses xrender and simply crashes on common WebGL codeFeb 12 06:37
DaemonFCMapsGL does it consistentlyFeb 12 06:37
DaemonFCin fact, that was the issue I tried telling them aboutFeb 12 06:37
DaemonFCprurigro: I feel more comfortable using Opera than Google ChromeFeb 12 06:38
DaemonFCOpera's license has some rather unfortunate terms in it, but Chrome's current license is worseFeb 12 06:38
DaemonFCI will not agree to Chrome's licenseFeb 12 06:38
prurigroyea, firefox's webgl support was disappointing to say the leastFeb 12 06:40
prurigroand waitFeb 12 06:40
prurigrochrome's license?Feb 12 06:40

prurigrowhen it first came outFeb 12 06:48
prurigroonly found out about chromium after when chrome would crash constantlyFeb 12 06:48
DaemonFCwell, it has a few LGPL componentsFeb 12 06:48
scientesno it doesn'tFeb 12 06:48
DaemonFClike the stuff in Webkit that's a derivative work of KHTML and KJSFeb 12 06:48

sebsebsebtried out 10.10 later on for a bit evenFeb 12 15:40
fewtI'm really enjoying working on my own distribution, even if it never really grows.Feb 12 15:40
sebsebsebfewt: back in 2009 I ended up going down the whole  http://distrowatch.com list in a few daysFeb 12 15:40
fewtBecause I control my own destiny better now than ever.Feb 12 15:41

sebsebsebfewt: yep I understand what your saying :)Feb 12 15:41
sebsebsebsince it's yours, you got  full control really I guessFeb 12 15:41
sebsebsebI vm'd quite a few distro's.  also I was trying to get a Mandriva vm working then, but nope issues insteadFeb 12 15:41
fewtWell, yes and noFeb 12 15:41
sebsebsebI had known about Mandrake since a guy from college back in 2005, who was quite into itFeb 12 15:42
fewtI've made sure that as the team grew it became democraticFeb 12 15:42
sebsebseband he would say how great it was and such, but I was all into Ubuntu land at the time.Feb 12 15:42
fewtso I can be overruled if I try to do something stupidFeb 12 15:42
sebsebseband some guys online would say how good Mandriva was to me on IRC, and so I get a virtual machine working of a development version of what would become Mandriva 2010.0,  the uhmm October 2009 release, I think October.  and liked it :)Feb 12 15:42
fewtbut we are all on the same page. :DFeb 12 15:42
sebsebseband then I install 2010.0 on here and so on from there, try out PC Linux OS on here later on for like five months even,  first just in a vm a bit, but would give up on it since not lieking the branding, but I gave it a fair try out for like five months, since one of the guys who would say on IRC how great Mandriv was, started usign PC LInux OS instead and telling me how great htat was.Feb 12 15:43
DaemonFCthe bad news is I'm in the red this month and have to take a cash advance against a credit cardFeb 12 15:43
sebsebsebfewt: not sure if your reading all of my story here, and I am typing quite a bit :DFeb 12 15:43
fewtouchFeb 12 15:43
DaemonFCthe good news is, it's going to be less than $50 and I can hurry up and pay it back without interestFeb 12 15:43
fewtI'm trying to keep upFeb 12 15:44
sebsebsebfewt: ok :)Feb 12 15:44
fewtI'm also working on staging kmods for 3.2.5-3 in another window ;)Feb 12 15:44
DaemonFCfewt: cash advance interest rates on my card are exactly 0.1% APR beneath what my state considers usuryFeb 12 15:44
sebsebseband I used to help a lot of people online with Ubuntu in IRC and so on, from like July 2008 or something to like October 2010, and yes even when the distro wasn't quite what I wanted anymoreFeb 12 15:44
sebsebseb,but  don't really do that anymoreFeb 12 15:45
DaemonFCbut if you pay it by the next due date, you don't pay any interestFeb 12 15:45
sebsebsebwell might try sometimes what support would be like since used to help out there al otFeb 12 15:45
DaemonFCso, it means come hell or high water, I need to pay that right awayFeb 12 15:45
sebsebsebanyway I decided I wanted to do more than just online support for Linux and stuff like thatFeb 12 15:45
fewtDaemonFC yeah you doFeb 12 15:45
sebsebsebI decided I wanted to contribute more properly to a distro, join some offical teams that kind of thing :)Feb 12 15:45
fewt+Feb 12 15:45
sebsebseb,but yep not  Ubuntu, but of course, oh and when I did help with Ubuntu since some issues as well, I never wanted to become a Ubuntu Community MemberFeb 12 15:46
sebsebsebor basicalelyFeb 12 15:46
fewtWe can always use more help at Fuduntu :DFeb 12 15:46
fewtWe don't have the same policies that some distributions do though.Feb 12 15:47
sebsebsebanyway so I was using Mandriva and quite likeing it,  and well installed again on here since I did PC Linux OS for aw hile,  and kept hte other computer on it since I put onFeb 12 15:47
sebsebsebkept onFeb 12 15:47
sebsebsebthat one still has the Mnadriva install I put on it,  upgraded from 2010.1 to 2010.2Feb 12 15:47
sebsebseb2011 is latest, but don't want that on thereFeb 12 15:47
fewtWe don't have a problem with Mono, or shipping software with bad licenses (as long as they are OK or we receive permission to distribute).Feb 12 15:47
sebsebsebor  on here really a pshyicall install.Feb 12 15:48
fewtDoes Mandriva still have the penguin branding like Mandrake?Feb 12 15:48
sebsebsebfewt: right bingo I think that was it schestowitz wasn't so keen on Fuduntu, because you shipped MonoFeb 12 15:48
fewtI really liked what they did there.Feb 12 15:48
fewtThat could beFeb 12 15:48
sebsebsebfewt: I thought about Mandriva maybe to some how  do something offical for thatFeb 12 15:48
sebsebsebfewt: get a IRC cloak and that kind of thing you knowFeb 12 15:48
sebsebseb,but I also knew that Mandriva was like a sinking ship, it was Sumemr 2010Feb 12 15:49
sebsebsebremours about how it may go bankrupt and all that,  since they needed to get a new investor, which later happendedFeb 12 15:49
sebsebsebnow they are also having problems like this mroe recently,  since a share holder wasn't giving them the money they neededFeb 12 15:49
sebsebsebfewt: and then as I am thinking about contributing more properly to a distro some how,  the Mandriva fork, Mageia gets announced :)Feb 12 15:50
fewtI think I read that they got fundingFeb 12 15:50
fewtAre you contributing to Mageia?Feb 12 15:50
sebsebsebfewt: yes yes, but there's something very recent now as wellFeb 12 15:50
sebsebsebyep I contribute to Mageia now,  it was just IRC to begin with, but more recently offical teams as well, even went to FOSDEM this year as a Magiea person :)  however I am not doing development,  doing other stuff insteadFeb 12 15:50
sebsebsebI had been thinking about joining an offial team for quite a while, but  took me quite a while to sign up on the mailing lists as well, but yeah December is where that  began :) Feb 12 15:51
fewtawesomeFeb 12 15:51
sebsebsebso yeah not taking packaging, but on three of the less technical offical teams so far, and got IRC channelsFeb 12 15:51
sebsebseband got my Identica precense as well, denting Mageia stuff here and there and suchFeb 12 15:52
sebsebseband been on a audiocast before as well,  to talk about Mageia and Mandriva and so on, very general about Desktop LInuxFeb 12 15:52
sebsebsebfewt: oh yeah I mentioned Fuduntu briefuly in that episode as well if I remember correctlyFeb 12 15:52
sebsebsebI am very general to Desktop Linux :)Feb 12 15:53
fewt:DFeb 12 15:53
sebsebsebif I like a distro enough, I'll hang out in it's IRC channels at least, and help people here and thereFeb 12 15:53
sebsebsebor well useualyFeb 12 15:53
sebsebsebfewt: plus it's nice to help newbies :)Feb 12 15:54
fewtyeah it isFeb 12 15:54
sebsebseband yeah I go to the Mint IRC channels sometimes for example, for these reasons :)Feb 12 15:54
fewtWe need more of that community wide.Feb 12 15:54
sebsebsebplus that's about as close as I will get to helping with Ubuntu againFeb 12 15:54
fewtThe Ubuntu community has gotten better about it recentlyFeb 12 15:54
sebsebsebuseuallyFeb 12 15:54
fewtIt used to be pretty ugly at UFFeb 12 15:54

fewtbut the staff have reeled it in.Feb 12 15:54
sebsebseband most of the supportp eopleFeb 12 15:54
sebsebsebfewt: Ubuntu does damage to Desktop Linux as a whole, making things much more general, distrowsieFeb 12 15:55
sebsebseband for that it does a lot of damageFeb 12 15:55
sebsebsebideally people should pick their own distro like I did back in 2004Feb 12 15:55
sebsebsebdo reasarch and pick their own, or well yeah in general, but this isn't the case anymore, people just tend to go for the one that is hyped up mostFeb 12 15:55
