>can’t use git
that kind of baffles me
you can put unicode in a C codebase, but not use git?

maybe putting utf-8 in a c codebase is easier than fully understanding git ๐Ÿ˜›

aldum11 2022-08-23 22:30:35
you don’t need to fully understand it

Git was released in 2005, he is one of the founders of computer science, there are still indians which collaborate on a fucking ftp, and you complain that he doesn’t know git? lol

nah he just doesnt like it, i thought him

@ChrisCromer how can i collaborate with Artix Linux ?
AndrewBenn 2022-08-23 23:22:54
it would be pretty cool to fix an awk bug and have Kernighan review it for merging.

you have RISC-V hardware?

2022-08-23 23:28:33
aldum11 2022-08-23 23:24:36

Yes I have a RISC-V I work on it on weekends๐Ÿ˜Š

aldum11 2022-08-23 23:32:38
nice

Marc 2022-08-23 23:39:29
yeah riscv !!!
Marc 2022-08-23 23:41:32
there is a riscv channel here
Marc 2022-08-23 23:43:33
look like the new riscv socs will come in october or november
Marc 2022-08-23 23:46:10
Does Artix support fuse ?
aquasp1 2022-08-23 23:52:02
Afaik yes
aquasp1 2022-08-23 23:52:08
I can open appimages
grakata_clem 2022-08-23 23:52:15
What’s so good about RISC-V compared to amd64?
aquasp1 2022-08-23 23:52:27
So Im assuming that fuse2 is working
grakata_clem 2022-08-23 23:52:37
Marc 2022-08-23 23:39:29
yeah riscv !!!

Cause this guy seems very excited

it’s open source hardware

grakata_clem 2022-08-23 23:56:12
aldum11 2022-08-23 23:55:41
it’s open source hardware

Oh, finally. Now RMS can sleep well

aldum11 2022-08-23 23:56:16
of course FUSE is working, why would it not
aldum11 2022-08-23 23:56:40
grakata_clem 2022-08-23 23:56:12

not yet, performance is dogshit

is it os or floss

What’s so good about RISC-V compared to amd64?

its even more efficient than arm, no licenses, someone opensourced theyr chip schematics. The instrucion set is always opensource if im not wrong

aldum11 2022-08-23 23:57:38
I don’t know how to decide that for hardware
yabadaba doo 2022-08-23 23:57:47
is it under any ip
grakata_clem 2022-08-23 23:57:50
aldum11 2022-08-23 23:56:40
not yet, performance is dogshit

I guess years will pass before it will be a viable alternative for amd64

Sounds nice

Marc 2022-08-23 23:58:28
years ? 2 months
aldum11 2022-08-23 23:58:35
aldum11 2022-08-23 23:56:40

and it’s not just RMS
the way they are bugging amd64 with UEFI and TPM, in a few years it won’t boot anything not approved by NSA

grakata_clem 2022-08-23 23:59:44
Marc 2022-08-23 23:58:28
years ? 2 months

Or it can become something like hurd

grakata_clem 2022-08-23 23:59:51
Neat idea, never finalized
