| schestowitz-TR | the ongoing EPO series will be 28+ parts, should I occasionally dump copies of progress on your SBC or no need? | Oct 04 07:55 |
|---|---|---|
| Techrights-sec | No need but say when / if you do so I can add them to the offline backups. | Oct 04 07:56 |
| schestowitz-TR | energymix is in today's rss feeds. I'll see what proportion of it is relevant. i assume you have not yet applied the commit in git. | Oct 04 08:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | re flatpak, years ago we complained about systemd dependency and they then removed this dependency, as I pointed out in IRC | Oct 04 08:28 |
| Techrights-sec | THe systemd dependency is still listed on their page. | Oct 04 08:33 |
| schestowitz-TR | maybe it was re-added, as I had worried | Oct 04 08:34 |
| Techrights-sec | $ apt-cache depends flatpak | grep systemd | Oct 04 08:39 |
| Techrights-sec | Depends: libsystemd0 | Oct 04 08:39 |
| Techrights-sec | Recommends: libpam-systemd | Oct 04 08:39 |
| Techrights-sec | and in the package for Ubuntu, same for Devuan | Oct 04 08:39 |
| Techrights-sec | and Raspberry Pi OS | Oct 04 08:39 |
| Techrights-sec | 2104, Chimaera, and 10 for respective versions. | Oct 04 08:39 |
| schestowitz-TR | so it was a false promise. noted! | Oct 04 08:40 |
| Techrights-sec | Or maybe they are finding it more entangled than they thought. | Oct 04 08:44 |
| Techrights-sec | One of the things the systemd fanbois do is dig in a deeply as they can | Oct 04 08:44 |
| Techrights-sec | as soon as permitted. | Oct 04 08:44 |

| schestowitz | I make complete backups every now and then | Oct 04 09:01 |

| Techrights-sec | The paranoid response is that file corruption can occur silently and | Oct 04 09:08 |
| Techrights-sec | multiple backups are needed. | Oct 04 09:08 |
| Techrights-sec | Once EXT4 hits 80% - 90% full then there will be a lot of additional writes | Oct 04 09:08 |

| schestowitz-TR | via the laptop, a snapshot is taken almost every month, then deleted as the drives are swapped around. if gemini usage keeps growing we might need to move the capsule off my home network. | Oct 04 09:09 |
| activelow | schestowitz-TR: with flatpak systemd is optional, dbus is mandatory | Oct 04 10:00 |
| activelow | the problem is, it is defined as a compile-time option, and once compiled into it is a runtime dependency too | Oct 04 10:04 |

| schestowitz-TR | we checked further | Oct 04 10:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | on numerous distros | Oct 04 10:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's still there with systemd dep | Oct 04 10:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | contrary to what red hat staff told me they would do | Oct 04 10:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | after we had complained | Oct 04 10:06 |
| activelow | dbus is at least as bad | Oct 04 10:07 |
| schestowitz-TR | I am not sufficiently familiar with its issues | Oct 04 10:09 |
| schestowitz-TR | but I heard | Oct 04 10:09 |
| activelow | dbus is a systemd-related component, contrary to systemd dbus was not removed anywhere (except with my distro), and the issue with dbus first and foremost is it's presence | Oct 04 10:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | what about kdbus? | Oct 04 10:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | same for kernel? | Oct 04 10:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | like kernel dbus? | Oct 04 10:10 |
| schestowitz-TR | there was a gkh controversy surrounding it, iirc | Oct 04 10:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | before Torvalds become "window dressing" | Oct 04 10:11 |
| schestowitz-TR | *became | Oct 04 10:11 |
| activelow | Alan Cox resigned, and one of his remarks cited on wikipedia refers to kdbus too; currently kdbus isn't implemented in mainline | Oct 04 10:12 |
| *activelow departs for some sleep | Oct 04 10:15 | |
| schestowitz-TR | give them time.. | Oct 04 10:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | same for mshithub | Oct 04 10:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | they also rusted and roasted linux | Oct 04 10:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | they try and retry until they run out of money | Oct 04 10:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | which is never | Oct 04 10:16 |
| schestowitz-TR | Google even created 'security-theme front group for rust | Oct 04 10:16 |
| Techrights-sec | The move can only happen after the OS upgrade due to the script dependencies. | Oct 04 10:28 |
| Techrights-sec | So if it has to move then maybe other options have to be explored. | Oct 04 10:28 |
| Techrights-sec | By the way moving to a location with a static IP address would allow | Oct 04 10:28 |
| Techrights-sec | an A name for gemini.techrights.org and that would in turn allow a SRV record | Oct 04 10:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | we'll be pressing on with Europe/EPO/UPC issues this month, a very high priority and a blind spot (lack of coverage) | Oct 04 10:29 |
| schestowitz-TR | Excellenbt that TR is covering it then | Oct 04 10:51 |
| Techrights-sec | Excellenbt that TR is covering it then | Oct 04 10:51 |
| Techrights-sec | The EPO coverage is exceptionally important strategically for FOSS | Oct 04 11:12 |
| schestowitz-TR | It is one aspect of many and one where we can help more | Oct 04 11:13 |
| schestowitz-TR | maybe I will try to publish each part around midnight, then videos around midday | Oct 04 11:14 |
