2021-01-08T00:10:28 #kisslinux <aarng> E5ten, that's correct
2021-01-08T00:19:47 #kisslinux <aarng> if you want to round properly, you can use sprintf
2021-01-08T00:20:47 #kisslinux <E5ten> aarng: no I was actually hoping that was the case lol
2021-01-08T00:22:51 #kisslinux <aarng> hah ok, good
2021-01-08T00:37:08 #kisslinux <E5ten> thanks for the answer btw
2021-01-08T00:42:00 #kisslinux <aarng> np
2021-01-08T02:56:17 #kisslinux <dilyn> ho hum cherie, I'm out of ideas building firefox (:
2021-01-08T02:56:59 #kisslinux <dilyn> first big error: linking lc++abi. First, why? Second, sure. Second big error: cannot parse... readelf... ouput... I'm sorry? Sure. Third error: duplicate symbols with cairo. ffs
2021-01-08T04:46:18 #kisslinux <testuser[m]_> <micr0 "its actually really sparse i can"> I usually open the log file with less, search for "Waiting" (Waiting for unfinished jobs) the problem is a few lines above that, and your error seems pretty weird, no idea
2021-01-08T15:31:43 #kisslinux <claudia02> dilynm: I am following losely your progress. Are you still on the static train and atm atempt to build firefox this way?
2021-01-08T15:33:45 #kisslinux <claudia02> I am not very familiar with this topic. Do you run some parts of your system build with static libs. So basically as much static as possible and the not willing to be static parts, dynamically linked on top?
2021-01-08T15:34:34 #kisslinux <testuser[m]_> is there any actual benefit to doing this fully static stuff, or is it just because you can?
2021-01-08T15:47:24 #kisslinux <dilyn> there are alegedy benefits
2021-01-08T15:47:37 #kisslinux <dilyn> I wrote a blog post that references some analysis some fellow did...
2021-01-08T15:48:00 #kisslinux <dilyn> claudia: well literally *everything* except mesa was static (with only like, six things linking against libc.so?)
2021-01-08T15:48:18 #kisslinux <dilyn> and then I wanted to see how to get firefox to work :S
2021-01-08T15:48:54 #kisslinux <dilyn> most of the stuff can be built statically - at least, all of the non-make deps can be. but now we of course run into link errors; firefox doesn't really want you to do static things to it from what I can tell
2021-01-08T15:49:30 #kisslinux <dilyn> best bet honestly is probably a qt5-webengine browser, except webengine "doesn't support static builds", so it's unclear if you could even do that haha
2021-01-08T15:50:04 #kisslinux <claudia02> So you have at what I can tell gcc, clang and rust you have to subdue
2021-01-08T15:50:28 #kisslinux <dilyn> gcc is pretty easy to build static, llvm/clang/lld/libcxx/etc required some options fiddling (I'm on wyverkiss atm)
2021-01-08T15:51:15 #kisslinux <dilyn> but KISS-static can be basically extended with the work I've done here with wyverkiss in much the same way - most things it's as easy as adding -static to $CFLAGS, some require --static in $LDFLAGS
2021-01-08T15:51:32 #kisslinux <claudia02> Yeah, your personal repo got pretty specialised but thats nice
2021-01-08T15:51:38 #kisslinux <dilyn> and most meson projects are... poorly written, I guess? so you have to do some fuckery
2021-01-08T15:51:59 #kisslinux <dilyn> just the master branch! the other branches are quite clean haha
2021-01-08T15:52:48 #kisslinux <claudia02> I have a $job atm and not so much capacity anymore to track everything.
2021-01-08T15:53:19 #kisslinux <dilyn> lmao all the work i've been doing the last nine months has been *during* work xD
2021-01-08T15:53:35 #kisslinux <claudia02> yeah thats pretty nice of you :D
2021-01-08T15:55:11 #kisslinux <claudia02> maybe you should give your $work some credtis for sponsoring your aweome work :v
2021-01-08T15:55:33 #kisslinux <dilyn> I think technically if they wanted they could scoop up my work as being their own
2021-01-08T15:56:27 #kisslinux <dilyn> even tho none of the work I do with them is coding related, I think it's part of my employment contract that any coding-related work I produce can be taken by them if it's related to 'the industry' or some vague fuckery
2021-01-08T15:57:33 #kisslinux <claudia02> So you *soul* is basically sold.
2021-01-08T15:57:53 #kisslinux <dilyn> basically
2021-01-08T15:58:11 #kisslinux <claudia02> But technically they are not able to track everything :D
2021-01-08T15:58:21 #kisslinux <dilyn> I don't believe in the efficacy or moral value of economies or currency but I work for one of the largest and oldest banks in the country. sold my soul, my principles, and my values :v
2021-01-08T16:00:39 #kisslinux <claudia02> True. In return they would probably not hesitate to replace you with sb more capable/productive. So why care anyway.
2021-01-08T20:41:55 #kisslinux <aws> Hello
2021-01-08T20:42:04 #kisslinux <aws> Any news about Dylan ?
2021-01-08T20:46:05 #kisslinux <micr0> none yet
2021-01-08T20:46:56 #kisslinux <buffet> Rip
2021-01-08T20:47:12 #kisslinux <dilyn> well hopefully not
2021-01-08T20:47:37 #kisslinux <buffet> Well yeah
2021-01-08T21:38:46 #kisslinux <Rio6> return in peace
