200 digitalmars.com InterNetNews NNRP server INN 2.6.0 ready (posting ok)
<qyliss>
That forum is so fast, too
<qyliss>
oh cool
<gchristensen>
leafnode is already packaged
<gchristensen>
openntpd too
<gchristensen>
oops not enough N's there
<qyliss>
The problem with all these programs is that it's difficult for me to tell if they're maintained
<qyliss>
Are they inactive because nobody's working on them, or because they're done?
<gchristensen>
opennntp would be quite a mouthful of a name.
<qyliss>
It's very possibly the latter but it's hard to tell.
<qyliss>
Oh wow. InterNetNews' last release was in Feb this year
<gchristensen>
I'd do that one then =)
<qyliss>
And if that's what the authors of dfeed are running then that's a bonus
<qyliss>
Thanks!
<qyliss>
Suppose I need to package that and dfeed then! :)
<qyliss>
Have to say I'm extremely impressed that development on INN is still going.
<qyliss>
oh gmane uses INN too
<qyliss>
apparently
<infinisil>
Shoutout to ncmpcpp's name
<infinisil>
(for being a mouthful of a name)
<qyliss>
You know this is gonna be good when
<qyliss>
" INN was originally written in K&R C, but supporting pre-ANSI compilers has become enough of a headache that a lot of the newer parts of INN will no longer compile with a non-ANSI compiler."
<aanderse>
infinisil: is oneOf getting merged soon-ish?
<infinisil>
aanderse: I hope :)
<samueldr>
the dlang forum software looks amazing from afar, curious how it is to manage and use
<infinisil>
aanderse: There shouldn't be any controversy on it
<aanderse>
infinisil: kk, thought so, just wanted to confirm
<eyJhb>
Btw. are you still hanging out at what I would call the hacker space? ;) I would enjoy that in Aalborg as well, as central as yours
<etu>
eyJhb: nah, home now :)
<eyJhb>
But a nice space you guys got there ;)
<adisbladis>
I wish we had something nice and central here :/
* gchristensen
wishes he knew people in his area who used computers
<adisbladis>
The London hackspace is so far away from me
<adisbladis>
gchristensen: Heh, rural problems
<eyJhb>
gchristensen: None around? :p
<gchristensen>
nope :)
<eyJhb>
adisbladis: same for Aalborg, it is quite... "far" away I would say
<etu>
eyJhb: It was nice hanging out with you for a while :)
<eyJhb>
And inactive
<adisbladis>
gchristensen: Maybe you can find a nice moose to hang out with or something?
<etu>
eyJhb: Drive safe tomorrow :)
<gchristensen>
there you go
<eyJhb>
etu: yeah you too! THanks for showing me around :p Always nice seeing the Swedish population ;)
<eyJhb>
I will! I am just happy that I don't need to walk that much. Because it has gotten soooo much worse. So just waiting for my forbidden food
<eyJhb>
But was nice meeting you all! Hope to go again ;) If anyone of you are in Aalborg at some point give me a call. I can show you all of Aalborg in muuuuch less time. Nothing to see really :p
<etu>
:D
<etu>
also, my desktop mobo at home is full of shit
<etu>
it only stores efi bootloaders across reboot if the efi file is located in /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
<etu>
otherwise it's dropped on reboot.
* etu
is a bit upset at the moment.
<etu>
If I copy the grub efi file there and create the entry by hand with efibootmgr -- it's fine
<adisbladis>
gchristensen: I'm curious, why do you choose to live in such a rural place?
<eyJhb>
etu: I am guessing Molly and Caroline doesn't hang out in #nixos ?
<eyJhb>
The joooys ! You are under the hands of Microsoft now ;)
<adisbladis>
eyJhb: To the best of my knowledge neither of them uses Nix so ;)
<adisbladis>
Also, Molly is not much of a computer person.
<zimbatm>
edef: got it, thanks!
<zimbatm>
do you have anything against licensing the change to Apache 2.0 ?
<eyJhb>
tshh.. talyz and etu , what kind of men are you! Force NixOS upon them :D
<eyJhb>
adisbladis: *force* I didn't see her with a computer, so had no clue :p
<adisbladis>
zimbatm: Oh, the confusion <3
<adisbladis>
The repo from orivej is really cool, you should check that out if you haven't already
<gchristensen>
adisbladis: I like to go swimming
<zimbatm>
I was aware of it but sometimes it's easier to structure the code your own way
<gchristensen>
and hike in the woods
<zimbatm>
and I had the same issue with edef regarding naming
<etu>
eyJhb: Well, Caroline is studing LPI certificates with redhat and stuff, so she don't want to run nixos because she actually want to get a computer job whichever it is :p
<eyJhb>
gchristensen: how far away is the nearest neighbour?
<eyJhb>
adisbladis: still getting used to the size of Sweden vs. DK
<etu>
That solved it for me
<etu>
didn't even need to add the bootloader
<etu>
It created an entry for me named "Windows Boot Manager"
<ajs124>
UEFI was a mistake
<eyJhb>
ajs124: disable it
<eyJhb>
Or.. Maybe not possible just running legacy anymore
<eyJhb>
I might have way to old hardware
<ajs124>
I'm actually all in on it. I even use systemd-boot. Still, though. Hearing stories like this always makes we think about what we could have had.
<ajs124>
Something simple. Something elegant. Something minimal. What we do have is basically the oposite in every single aspect.
<eyJhb>
Something simple, elegant and minimal is like.. The goal for most software I would think
<ajs124>
Not of UEFI, from what I could tell
<eyJhb>
End result is always another discussion ;)
<eyJhb>
Don't know how simple my "platform" is anymore either...
<eyJhb>
I still see it as simple, elegant and minimalistic. Somebody else might say "no".
<talyz>
eyJhb: heh, well, molly is running fedora on their laptop, but isn't super interested in computers in general
<adisbladis>
ajs124: The really shitty thing is that linuxbios & friends were around back then
<adisbladis>
We had better options but still UEFI prevailed :/
<ajs124>
yeah, that's what I'm always thinking. We could have coreboot on everything now.
<eyJhb>
talyz: so forced Fedora? :p
<eyJhb>
ajs124: but is coreboot, simple, elegant and minimalistic?
<ajs124>
compared to UEFI? for sure.
<eyJhb>
Is.. Is there any source for UEFI?
<talyz>
eyJhb: kinda :p molly prefers it to windows, though :)
<eyJhb>
talyz: Ah, great gal then! - Seeing if I can't change the one I am chasing away from Mac ;) In reference to our conversation.
<eyJhb>
Did you fix the Hangry part?
<eyJhb>
ajs124: then it is up for fixing :D
<talyz>
eyJhb: Heh, yeah, apple fans are hard to convince :p
<talyz>
eyJhb: Yep, we had vegan burgers a while ago, so problem solved :)
<eyJhb>
talyz: *force! Although I don't think it works on her. At all.
<eyJhb>
Same place?
<talyz>
eyJhb: Did you find your way home? ;)
<talyz>
eyJhb: Nah, we cooked them ourselves :)
<eyJhb>
Yeah, after taking the wrong train, found the right train back, and then the right train again :p I was SO PROUD up until that point
<eyJhb>
Everything went smoothly.. Until.. It did not
<eyJhb>
Ah, just found the nereast ICA and bought a frozen pizza. Cooking in a half assed kitchen for yourself is no fun
<talyz>
:D
<talyz>
In a kitchen without utensils..
<eyJhb>
Yeah. Or there are SOME just not the ones you need for actual cooking. But I got rugbrød, milk and havrefras, so I will survive! And Giflar. But that is dinner supplement ;) Just not looking forward to getting kicked out tomorrow... Just want to spend the day in bed. Also, not hotel or anything for tomorrow :|

ashkitten: Hey with steam have you had issues with friends network and multiplayer not working at all?
<ashkitten>
idk
<Taneb>
Church-: I've been able to play multiplayer with Steam on NixOS, and friends network seems to work fine
<Church->
Hmm, broken on my install.
<ashkitten>
i've been rendering and encoding video, not playing games
<Church->
Fair enough
<drakonis>
Church-: you need to run it with a timezone selected
<Church->
Yeah I did.
<drakonis>
huh
<Church->
Oddly enough nothing except downloading and playing games works.
<Church->
Wonder if it's the nativeonly option I set
<Church->
Hmm, no still only works under that setting. 404s on binaries still under 19.03
<Taneb>
Can you test if it works properly on another OS?
<Church->
Yeah it does on my ubuntu machine
<Church->
Gonna try and pull it from master nixpkgs
<Church->
Odd since this is a fresh install of 19.03
<drakonis>
master works fine mind you
<Church->
Yeah that's why I find it so odd
<Church->
From before I thought it was because I had a local copy of nixpkgs pulled that I was using
<Church->
But this is a fresh install and I turned off that option here.
<drakonis>
a fresh install you say?
<Church->
Ah I think I see why
<Church->
Nixpkgs got deleted somehow from my channels
<Church->
It's trying from nixos
<drakonis>
nixchannels.txt
<Church->
Hmm?
<Church->
drakonis: So many packages pulling down. >_>
<drakonis>
that's living in the edge!
<drakonis>
living dangerously!
<Church->
Heh
<Church->
Maybe I should have added just nixpkgs and not unstable
<drakonis>
probably.
<drakonis>
but you'd have to rebuild things every time the builds stalled
<Church->
Eyep
<drakonis>
on the other hand, you can just submit prs based on your tree
<drakonis>
its a nice trade off though
<drakonis>
i'll get a ryzen lappy soon, then i'll just live in the edge forever
<Church->
Heh
<drakonis>
everything builds in a zippy
<Church->
It's more that my network connection is crap
<Church->
Otherwise this would be fine
<Church->
I have 6co/12th
<drakonis>
6co?
<Church->
6 cores
<Church->
drakonis: Bother so still failing on unstable nixpkgs
<drakonis>
oh i see
<Church->
Tries to pull some libs that are broken links from the steam stie
<Church->
Wat
<Church->
So I can open it fine in my browser but it 404s on it when rebuilding.
<talyz>
eyJhb: Right, some useless utensils :p No hotel, but you always have your car ;)
<eyJhb>
talyz: Yeah, lets see if I have to sleep in it for the first time. Might go to IKEA, just for some hooks so I can put something up around my car to get it "private" :p
<Church->
Sleeping in your car?
<eyJhb>
Church-: haven't booked anything for the next town I am visiting in Sweden, so might be a option :p
<eyJhb>
And considering it is a mini car, with 5 seats, it doesn't have much space for sleeping
<drakonis>
5 seats minicar?
<drakonis>
how small are those seats again?
<eyJhb>
Two in the front, 3 in the back? Not like three seperat seats, but three seatbelts
<eyJhb>
Still larger than a micro car ! But that is mostly space in the trunk
<eyJhb>
s/trunk/back/
<drakonis>
well, the backseat usually works for sleeping most of the time
<eyJhb>
Haven't tried it yet, used the drivers seat for a quick nap last time. The back of the seat can be adjusted all the way back to touch the backseats

Tomorrow trying Nixos on virtual after gent## is finished baking off. I like the concept of rollbacks I tried Fedora Silverblue. I thing Nixos has more packages.
