schestowitzbtw, figosdev reads irc logsMay 08 16:13
chasecrumperfect!May 08 16:13
schestowitzso he might be able to tell you more if you drop in the obfuscated email addressMay 08 16:13
chasecrumthanks!May 08 16:13
oiaohmHeck I do include android support.May 08 16:13
oiaohmThis is mostly because testing all that is low cost.May 08 16:13
schestowitz(he keeps anonymous to avoid nuisance and dodgy people)May 08 16:13
XRevan86chasecrum: A bit off topic: how hard is it to get access to SLED for testing as an openSUSE maintainer? I've been asked to support MATE in SLE several times, last time by an actual SUSE employee.May 08 16:14
schestowitzoiaohm: Android sucks, but not as much as some other OSesMay 08 16:14
chasecrumnot hard at all!!!May 08 16:14
MinceRoiaohm: i would say there's no support and if it happens to work on their shitty machines, they should feel luckyMay 08 16:14
schestowitzwhich is why rianne posts Android news in tuxmacjinesMay 08 16:14
chasecrumall SLES official downloads from our page come with a 30 day trialMay 08 16:14
MinceR08 170921 < schestowitz> because companies rejected the ms 'solution'May 08 16:14
chasecrumbeyond that if you want an actual full license I'm sure we could arrange thatMay 08 16:15
MinceRi had a different kind of "solution" in mindMay 08 16:15

schestowitzchasecrum: npMay 08 16:16
XRevan86chasecrum: Well, I don't need support or anything, just something that would show differences with Leap and resulting pitfalls.May 08 16:17
chasecrumwhy does the name stormy peters ring a bell to me....May 08 16:17
schestowitzwe need to look at Microsoft's boradroom strategyMay 08 16:17
MinceRmaybe microsoft could merge with ibm, and then they'd have all the gnomesMay 08 16:17
schestowitzit's something they have in paper somewhere... but we cannot see, at least now yet... wsl, azure, vs code etc. are also pieces of their puzzle... it's another go at E.E.E>May 08 16:17
chasecrumyeah I could probably swing that (I think, anyway), but there's talk of a new opensuse that merges sles and opensuse - I think it's going to be called jump? but it's not in release yetMay 08 16:18

MinceRinstead there's UEFI with Restricted BootMay 08 16:18
MinceRwith microsoft as the Ministry of PC OS GatekeepingMay 08 16:19
schestowitzchasecrum: sounds like leapMay 08 16:19
chasecrumprobably not? but I'll check to see if I can get a license for you - not sure - but sorta sureMay 08 16:19
oiaohmUEFI on OS X machine is more of a mangled mess than UEFI on windows PCs.May 08 16:19
MinceRbut nobody caresMay 08 16:19
schestowitzchasecrum: maybe you 'leaked' a surpriseMay 08 16:19
MinceRbecause nobody uses apple PCsMay 08 16:19

schestowitzchasecrum: I just know about tumbleweed upstream with SLEMay 08 16:20
MinceRfinally i could buy a laptop with systemd preinstalled, with a hinge, keyboard and touchpad buttons that will all break themselves and a gpu that will cook itself, with no warrantyMay 08 16:20
schestowitzI posted a link to it last nigthMay 08 16:20
MinceRwhere do i sign up?May 08 16:20

MinceRoh, and as an extra bonus, it will cost more than with windows preinstalledMay 08 16:21
schestowitzMinceR: d stands for dellMay 08 16:21
chasecrumcrap - maybe it's not out - let me go check and see if I just shot myselfMay 08 16:21

kingoffranceyes, i am always amazed at size of some source trees...with higher-level languages, one would think, all else being equal (never is) conciseness (more "punch" per line of code, in theory) would lead to smaller, or at least stagnant-size codebasesMay 08 16:26

MinceRand hardly any commentsMay 08 16:32
XRevan86chasecrum: That was the initial idea behind EQT getting SUSE from Micro Focus, IIRC.May 08 16:32
schestowitzlinux is at least very modular witb loadable modulesMay 08 16:32

chasecrumIDK honestly, I thought that was the whole point of leap - I mean , it's supposed to be that close to sles already - so I still have a lot of catching up to do on that convoMay 08 16:39
chasecrumwait - gentoo wasn't on the list above - so gentoo is free of github????May 08 16:39
XRevan86chasecrum: There are definitely some weird discrepancies here and there. Like I mentioned lttng – it was somewhat supported in SLE, but orphaned in openSUSE.May 08 16:39
XRevan86Now it's the other way around %).May 08 16:39
schestowitzmaybe it uses some core packages that are developed on Microsoft's serversMay 08 16:39
zoobabthere won't be any change as long as HTTP is not replacedMay 08 16:39
schestowitzwhat de does gentoo default to if any?May 08 16:40

chasecrumidk- haven't used gentoo for over a decade - was gonna give it a second glance in light of the github hubub - but I wasn't sure if it was mired in github as well - so you're saying it's not?May 08 16:40
chasecrumXrevan86 I think you're right - almost like centos?May 08 16:41
XRevan86chasecrum: Oh, it's mirrored on GitHub definitely.May 08 16:41

schestowitzmaking a dependency on Microsoft's (not back then Microsoft's) proprietary lock-inMay 08 16:41
XRevan86chasecrum: CentOS used to be a de-branded version of RHEL based on publicly available package sources (RHEL is providing sources).May 08 16:42
