22:25.11DocScrutinizer05cool
22:25.20DocScrutinizer05byebye systemd?
22:25.24Paliyes
22:25.41DocScrutinizer05where do I throw my money at?
22:26.40Palihttps://devuan.org/donate.html
22:26.52DocScrutinizer05shall Neo900 UG announce that our default BSP will be no longer debian based but now devuan based?
22:27.15PaliI think you should wait!
22:27.52Paliand new systemd-ed debian was not released yet
22:28.37DocScrutinizer05I think it's the best way to demonstrate support for everything counter-poettering
22:29.14DocScrutinizer05well, maybe donation will be enough for now
22:29.22DocScrutinizer05let things consolidate a bit
22:30.04PaliDebian wheezy is withouth systemd and is still supported... I still have no reason to switch from Debian
22:30.16Palibut I'm happy with any alterative to systemd
22:30.46Paliso once wheey will be without support Devuan (if will work) is good for me
22:31.26Paliand yes, demonstrate support for anti poettering is good

23:32.53illwieckzhi, it seems there is spam in your µBlog
23:33.58DocScrutinizer05aha
23:34.35WizzupI would suggest to stay a bit in the shade about all this not to upset possible donators that don't care too much
23:34.53DocScrutinizer05it seems there is spam on my PC, since last update
23:36.06DocScrutinizer05well, I can *promise* that Neo900 UG won't support (nor ship) any system with systemd
23:38.59DocScrutinizer05HEHE! Golden! >>[2014-11-29 Sat 00:01:34] <mofino> comment from slapdot: "Seems clear that we've lost Debian, an operating system, to developers of a mere application, "desktop." Why do we even need operating systems? A desktop is all anyone needs... just run your servers on that!" <<
23:39.27ShadowJKI don
23:39.31ShadowJKt even understand
23:40.26DocScrutinizer05I'll add a ".. and your phones too" ... wait isn't that firefoxOS or whatsitcalled?
23:41.20ShadowJKI have a firefox os  phone ! :-)
23:41.44DocScrutinizer05ShadowJK: freedesktop aka gnome aka systemd cabal hijacking linux and turning it into a system that will only be useful for desktop systems
23:41.50ShadowJKAmusingly, it works great as a phone, and as a mifi, but it's shit at browsing the web
23:42.48DocScrutinizer05sure, a system tailored to fit only one particular usecase damn better at least does that one usecase decently
23:44.04DocScrutinizer05a little story from the past: on Openmoko we tried to make our Neo work with PA. Epic fail. Resort to ALSA which didn't expose any of the PA problems
23:44.15ShadowJKWell, in my book, and probably others' too, I'd first have working web browser, second working messaging, and only third down working voice call :-)
23:44.22DocScrutinizer05shudders thinking about making systemd work on GTA02
23:44.34useretailhey guys, is it worth to replace camera module to n97 counterpart?
23:44.48DocScrutinizer05useretail: prolly not
23:45.36DocScrutinizer05they should be absolutely identical, though several users _claim_ the N97 was higher quality. From inspecting the module I can't see how they would differ
23:46.55useretailwell, i compared photos, and they look a bit better with n97 module on n97
23:46.59ShadowJKN900 flash blinded the camera, maybe that explains the difference?
23:47.08DocScrutinizer05useretail: btw you know we will use N97 cam on Neo900?
23:47.27useretailcool
23:47.30DocScrutinizer05ShadowJK: that won't change by changing the module
23:47.42DocScrutinizer05;-)
23:47.51ShadowJKYeah but I mean like if comparing N97 device vs N900 device?
23:47.55DocScrutinizer05it's more a problem of the case design
23:48.15ShadowJKOr have you tested N97 and N900 cam module in Neo900 case already? ;-)
23:48.24DocScrutinizer05those who calim the N97 superior quality did so after swapping the N900 cam module
23:48.34DocScrutinizer05*I* didn't
23:48.40ShadowJKBtw, what is the status of these parts anyway? I would have imagined that N97 era spare parts would be drying up already :s
23:49.06DocScrutinizer05seems cam modules are still available in quantities
23:49.17ShadowJKwow
23:50.53DocScrutinizer05but yes, generally exactly those legacy parts are one of our biggest headache. That's why I am about to start a "buy your risk parts" campaign
23:52.10illwieckzIf neo900 developpers call themselves "Veteran Unix Admin" like this one: https://lab.dyne.org/GnuLinuxPurification (the guy behind devuan) I will never buy a neo900, It would be more interesting to buy a shining android phone with a samsung rootkit. My first need for neo900 is security, and "Veteran Unix Admins" who think that root is the good unix account to browse the web because «it is his pc in his house» (or his smartp
23:52.10illwieckzhone in his hand) can't be the good guy to develop a secure neo900.
23:53.00Wizzupillwieckz: you're committing logical fallacies
23:53.27WizzupYour jump from VUA to "running everything as root" is ridiculous
23:53.37WizzupAnd it also has nothing to do with systemd or whatsoever
23:53.46DocScrutinizer05illwieckz: that's actually your problem when you buy a hardware by considerations about your sympathy for some of the guys building it
23:54.18illwieckzthere is 6 links to a page fullfilled of "logical fallacies" from this guy on the neo900 homepage, which is not good for your public reputation
23:55.13illwieckzand this problem is not my problem
23:55.26WizzupI don't think the project linked is inherent to a single person, and I also don't see logical fallacies on that page per se
23:55.32DocScrutinizer05then it's no problem :-)
23:56.00WizzupIf you want security, then you'd know better than use systemd
23:56.08DocScrutinizer05indeed
23:56.37WizzupDocScrutinizer05: but seriously, would suggest to keep the ublog a bit less politically loaded
23:56.50DocScrutinizer05and you better evaluate security of Neo900 by yourself instead of judging about security of the hw by statements of its devels regarding systemd
23:57.54DocScrutinizer05ooh, linking to a URL is already politically loaded?
23:58.24DocScrutinizer05well, when it is then I'm happy to have the page politically loaded
23:58.26illwieckzI'm not judging about systemd, but about links to troll on the neo900 homepage
23:58.26Wizzupwell, you could say: ``This looks interesting: <linK>''
23:58.31Wizzuprather than the link six times
23:58.39Wizzupillwieckz: you define it as a troll
23:59.03DocScrutinizer05how is that 6 times? I only posted it three times
23:59.23Wizzupit shows up as six links here :)
23:59.37illwieckzthree times without any comment sound like spam
