libera/#devuan-arm/ Saturday, 2021-10-16

Vallc0rnelius: agreed you and I can't change it. But we can try and (at least help) change future events00:03
VallOh man00:03
VallYour family was a victim of the Holocaust? I'm very sorry to hear that :-(00:04
VallRe: the world not caring, you are completely right. The same re: Israel, if the jews haven't fought for the land, there would be no Israel today.00:07
Vall(not saying this should allow the Israel military to continue to kill over 20 palestinians -- most of them civilians -- for each Israeli killed by Hamas and other terrorists)00:10
gnarfaceguys there's a #devuan-offtopic00:11
gnarfacejust fyi00:11
Vallgnarface: perhaps we should create a #devuan-arm-offtopic ;-)00:11
Vallgnarface: but of course you are right, I apologize.00:11
gnarfacemaybe not a bad idea actually00:12
Vallc0rnelius: let's continue in #devuan-offtopic ?00:12
gnarfacei'm no figure of authority here, it's just that i keep seeing the channel light up with what i expect to be new news about arm builds and i flip over and see you guys bitching about politics, that's all00:12
Vallgnarface: heh ;-) not being a figure of authority doesn't change the fact that you are right ;-)00:13
VallFolks, gotta go. Talk to y'all later (prolly tomorrow). Have a great one!00:22
c0rneliusNot a lot of people speak here, but I get the drift.00:35

adam_free2airtrying mate now briefly, then on to rpi3 ...21:11
hyrcanusk21:11
hyrcanusif you want guaranteed to not fuck-up your xorg performance i like openbox21:12
adam_free2airtempted to try kde, cause i like the pain ... ;)21:12
adam_free2airbut yeah, openbox is pretty good. was into i3 for a while, smooth, but it did things to my head.21:14
hyrcanusif i could completely disable browser dragging anything that'd be great21:15
hyrcanusoften when i want to hilight text, i get a 'drag' action21:15
hyrcanusand cannot hilight the text21:15
hyrcanusi never want anything to drag to anywhere21:16

adam_free2airbtw openbox worked fine too.21:34
hyrcanus+121:46
hyrcanuspi4 is nice and all but idk21:46
hyrcanuspi3 was unstable with opengl enabled so21:46
hyrcanusi have post-traumatic hatred for broadcom21:46
hyrcanusfor a bit more money i can get SBC with untainted horror memory21:47
Tenkawahyrcanus: what sbc?21:49
hyrcanusodroid, khadas21:49
hyrcanusor something rockchip based21:50
hyrcanusbut for lots of people they'll be happiest with the larger community around the pi421:50
Tenkawaodroid/amlogic I can agree with however take it from someone who has had to debug rockchip units... they are no picnic either21:50
hyrcanusty for info21:51
hyrcanusif i had the money to blow i'd get a xavier nx, cause they're neat-o21:51
hyrcanuswith nice gpus21:51
Tenkawaamlogic are my preferred however they are pricy and availability is lacking right now21:52
TenkawaI have a N2 and N2+ personally21:52
hyrcanussadly the mali g52 mp4 isn't comparable to jetson nano's gpu21:52
hyrcanusbut you do get open-source drivers21:53
Tenkawayes but the Jetson's cpu is nominal at best21:53
hyrcanuswhy no cortex a78 with decent gpu :(21:53
hyrcanuswe waiting so long21:53
hyrcanusyeah a browser on a jetson is painful21:53
Tenkawaindeed.21:53
Tenkawaafk.. need to switch over laundry21:54
hyrcanusk21:54
adam_free2airhyrcanus: understand your broadcom trauma. rpi's are not my arm platform of choice, but devuan is the os i want to offer to those that do ;)21:59
hyrcanusmhm also you can get pi4s with 8GB which is nice for that headroom a browser wants22:00
hyrcanusbut i seem to be doing ok with zram now on 4GB22:00
hyrcanusstill dont' know what % of memory to set the zram to22:00
hyrcanusgot rid of that stupid tmpfs for /tmp22:01
hyrcanusand disabled memory overcommit22:01
hyrcanus"with blackouts looming, german government promotes 'cooking without electricty'"22:13
Tenkawahyrcanus: have you actually read the entire larger story it goes with?22:20
Tenkawait makes a lot of sense in context with whats going on22:20
