[04:55]zubairs_: Reddit is nice place to discover things that you did not know exists, like the below critique of GNOME.

[12:32]ceux: zubairs__: funny, though KDE2 predates me
[12:32]zubairs__ has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[12:32]ceux: a lot of stuff, KDE3 had, became standardized later.
[12:33]ceux: cool to be first, but move with the pack
[12:33]ceux: like DCOP and Artsd are well ahead of their time!
[12:33]zubairs__ has joined
[12:37]Fat-Zer: ceux: I'd disagree arts was exactly an artifact of its time... with alsa in became completely obsolete...
[12:40]Fat-Zer: as for dcop... I don't know enough about its arch to make a fair judgment, but I suspect it was superseeded by dbus because it had some juvenile illnesses..
[12:40]Fat-Zer: *superseded
[12:40]ceux: Fat-Zer: yet arts was replaced as a software mixer by pulse
[12:40]ceux: better realized certainly
[12:41]Fat-Zer: ceux: nah... arts was developed in oss times when only one process could pass sound to the kernel
[12:42]micheleC: yes, dcop was replaced by dbus. But I don't think dbus is superior. Both have pros and cons
[12:42]micheleC has quit (Quit: Kopete 0.12.7 : http://trinitydesktop.org)
[12:42]ceux: Fat-Zer: right, which is still basically true right?
[12:42]ceux: isnt that the whole point of pulse and such to allow software mixing
[12:43]ceux: micheleC: yes, ODB-1 is not worse than ODB-2, its just vendor specific, that is, Audi, Saab, GM, all had their own versions (like dcop being for kde)
[12:43]ceux: the real power was when ODB-2 came out - because everyone supported the same communication protocol.
[12:43]ceux: means i can write one client app that say does MPRIS and everyone supports it.
[13:00]Fat-Zer: I think about pulse as more of a commutator than a mixer... than in arts on a system with alsa, the only benefit I can see is that it is a standalone process to which any other process can offload sound output, which might be crucial on very week systems...

[17:09]SlavekB: It's to be angry - it goes for a while, it doesn't respond again in the next while. Unfortunately, I do not have enough time now that I could devote to it.
[17:16]Fat-Zer: sure, no pressure... I mostly just venting my annoyance...

[18:42]a-865: I'm trying to propose TDE to a Trixie user, but the Wiki is apparently being fussy about which web browser I try with, works in Chromium, but not so much SeaMonkey, and it's slow in both. I'm in USA FL.
[18:49]SlavekB: Fat-Zer for TDE/tdesvn#37 I acidentally pressed Approve instead of Comment.
[18:53]Fat-Zer: SlavekB: ok, will take into account... but it seems I won't be able to access it till tomorrow anyway...
[18:53]Fat-Zer: a-865: long story short the whole website currently experiences connection issues... might that be the reason?
[18:56]SlavekB: Interestingly, responses problems are observable at both places - TGW/Weblate at vpsFree.cz (in Europe) and also web, wiki,... on tde-box (in America).
[19:00]a-865: apt update fails too
[19:01]zubairs_ has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)
[19:02]Fat-Zer: SlavekB: as for your comment: no, the commands return lines with whitespaces at the start. OUTPUT_STRIP_TRAILING_WHITESPACE doesn't trim them
[19:03]Fat-Zer: hm... I'm wondering if Gitea can handle replies via mail...
[19:04]SlavekB: OK, I thought the selected solution could be because of this problem. Thank you for your confirmation.
[19:04]zubairs_ has joined
[19:05]SlavekB: Creating an e-mail will pass it on to the local process and this then follows the outgoing connection - it has no problem with that.
[19:06]a-865: is https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Debian_Trinity_Repository_Installation_Instructions correct in stating 14.1.x currently exists for Trixie?
[19:07]a-865: using trinity-sb works
[19:09]SlavekB: Yes, the packages TDE R14.1.4 for Trixie were added to the official repository short time before the final release of the Trixie.
[19:09]Fat-Zer: SlavekB: no... I meant if I can reply to the email notification to post into an issue...
[19:10]SlavekB: Oh, I understand. No an email gateway with connection to TGW is not set yet.
[19:12]a-865: the ppa source times out. the archive source produces error: "W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'deps-r14/binary-amd64/Packages' as repository 'http://archive.trinitydesktop.net/trinity/deb/trinity-r14.1.x trixie InRelease' doesn't have the component 'deps-r14' (component misspelt in sources.list?)"
[19:13]SlavekB: In official releases repository is not "-r14" suffix on components.
[19:14]a-865: I knew it had to be something in my face :(
[19:16]a-865: mucho gracias :)
