@nyanide O-oops, totally not my jam — physically taking the target system over would probably be easier for me than making Java thingies run on a musl system 😆
Oh, fuck this! I'm downgrading to ESR 115! Is there a way I can have up-to-date Firefox without having to patch to option to disable WebP support back it? 🤬 I wonder if there are ESR 115 builds for Android… 🤔
@autolycus In case with these Macs there would be no Intel engineer and no driver from original hardware maker! It would always remain a best effort implementation from someone who might abandon the project sooner or later: people burn out, people can simply change hobbies — this isn't something new, this is happening all the time. They have no obligations to support your hardware. People should stop fooling themselves into thinking that this works. @phoronix
@phoronix Nothing of value was lost, my stance on Asahi Linux remains the same: https://m0xEE.Net/gemlog/posts/2024-09-05-asahi-linux-is-pointless.gmi It's a waste of effort that'd better be used elsewhere, nowadays we have plenty of hardware that's way more open than that of Apple, and hardware based on reverse-engineering effort would always remain far from perfect.
@autolycus The MacBook Pro I'm typing this on has Broadcom wireless adapter that has an opensource reverse-engineered driver and a proprietary one from Broadcom and the former is not useable — it can associate with a wireless network, but it's not something I would use on a daily basis. It's a 2011 MacBook and reverse-engineered driver *NEVER* caught up, I'm speaking from experience here. Should I explain why it would be worse in case with ARM-based Macs? @phoronix
@autolycus Most of my hardware is also Apple hardware, you don't have to tell me what it is. Even 10 years ago this hardware was supported better than average PC hardware because it was the same commodity hardware based on Intel chipsets. And we have e.g. hardware video decoding support not because someone reverse-engineered it on their spare time, but because a qualified engineer on Intel's payroll *with access to the spec* have contributed it. @phoronix
@romin Chyna has defeated M-Video by making their jibber-jabber thingie open sores and it turned out to be not much worse than paid-for jibber-jabber thingies.
@kerosene@MK2boogaloo > they married the schizo they were assigned to Why do they leave then, when they keep hanging out with their friends from Fedi openly from now on? 🤔
@nyanide@arcana I think by 2044 our instances would mostly be hosted on organic computers. Imagine talking to each other through cats using giant lumps of flesh kept in somebody's basement… The future is amazing! If you aren't squeamish it is! 😅
@nyanide > For me wireguard-go didn't work with 2.6 — the kernel lacks sendMmsg and recvMmsg system calls, you can probably plug it with implementations relying solely on sendmsg and recvmsg, but I didn't dig any deeper. The latter part is particularly funny 😂
NoneJust in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
