[2023-03-12T00:27:45Z] <dilyn> testuser[m]1 latest go doesn't actually build with go 1.4 bootstrap:X
[2023-03-12T00:27:54Z] <dilyn> recent enough versions require 1.17.3+
[2023-03-12T00:28:12Z] <dilyn> doesn't look like they've updated their docs to reflect such a change though...

[2023-03-12T06:17:18Z] <sad_plan> hi
[2023-03-12T18:03:17Z] <rohan> hey guys
[2023-03-12T18:04:28Z] <rohan> Simeone here is the maintainer of yt-dlp?
[2023-03-12T18:23:22Z] <sewn> kiss m yt-dlp
[2023-03-12T18:23:33Z] <sewn> its ioraff
[2023-03-12T18:27:35Z] <rohan> is he here?
[2023-03-12T18:28:37Z] <rohan> just a suggestion to use git repo in sources
[2023-03-12T22:01:49Z] <midfavila> https://inv.riverside.rocks/watch?v=FUd8SxFhc-U
[2023-03-12T22:02:34Z] <midfavila> >tfw botnet is literally, not figuratively, holding children ransom now
[2023-03-12T22:26:38Z] <shokara> Is it just me, or do invidious instances no longer show a video's description?
[2023-03-12T22:26:57Z] <shokara> I don't see it in puffyan, snopyta, nor riverside anymore.
[2023-03-12T22:26:59Z] <midfavila> nah it's happening for me too
[2023-03-12T22:27:03Z] <midfavila> dunno what's up with it
[2023-03-12T22:27:16Z] <shokara> yet another crappy redesign then I guess
[2023-03-12T22:28:02Z] <shokara> oh it's a pinned issue: https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/issues/3660
[2023-03-12T22:29:00Z] <midfavila> looking at some of louis' other videos has got me thinking that starting a gadget shop might actually be more viable than i thought
[2023-03-12T22:29:01Z] <midfavila> like
[2023-03-12T22:29:17Z] <midfavila> literally all i would need to do to make fucking *bank* is design a printer that isn't ass and then not gouge people for ink
[2023-03-12T22:29:42Z] <shokara> create a phone repair shop and secretly install replicant or postmarketos on their phones
[2023-03-12T22:29:54Z] <midfavila> you couldn't pay me to work on smartphones
[2023-03-12T22:29:57Z] <midfavila> or tablets
[2023-03-12T22:30:00Z] <midfavila> or even modern laptops
[2023-03-12T22:30:03Z] <midfavila> i refuse
[2023-03-12T22:30:04Z] <shokara> true, it's painfuul
[2023-03-12T22:30:16Z] <shokara> but what about good little macbooks?
[2023-03-12T22:30:41Z] <midfavila> if I *did* have a repair shop, i would charge you extra to have me work on an apple device, purely so you would fuck off
[2023-03-12T22:31:01Z] <shokara> would that extra fee be more than what apple themselves charge?
[2023-03-12T22:31:07Z] <midfavila> yes.
[2023-03-12T22:31:12Z] <shokara> nice
[2023-03-12T22:31:22Z] <midfavila> parts plus service plus an explicit apple tax because fuck you.
[2023-03-12T22:33:38Z] <midfavila> but yeah like idk make a printer that isn't shit, sell ink in bulk, sell some little household electronic goods, generally just not be a piece of garbage 
[2023-03-12T22:33:43Z] <midfavila> bing bang boom business plan.
[2023-03-12T22:34:05Z] <shokara> How would you create the Windows 12^tm driver?
[2023-03-12T22:35:08Z] <midfavila> good question :D
[2023-03-12T22:35:08Z] <midfavila> would need to look into it if I were to actually try it in a serious manner
[2023-03-12T22:35:17Z] <shokara> and also a macos driver
[2023-03-12T22:35:31Z] <shokara> though I think that should be less painful because of cups?
[2023-03-12T22:35:31Z] <midfavila> pretty sure UEFI has some sort of universal driver interface
[2023-03-12T22:35:39Z] <midfavila> but don't quote me on that
[2023-03-12T22:36:04Z] * shokara wonders if apple still maintains cups with everyone else
[2023-03-12T22:37:14Z] <midfavila> other possibility, perhaps easier in the long run, would be to use a super shitty SBC to control all of the printer hardware and stuff and then just run an embedded OS on that to expose a soft interface via the network
[2023-03-12T22:37:49Z] <shokara> I think that's what some printers and scanners do
[2023-03-12T22:37:56Z] <midfavila> plug the "printer" in via USB and it shows up basically as a file storage device, drag and drop your file into the printer directory, and the machine's computer receives the file, checks if it's valid, and then spools and prints it 
[2023-03-12T22:37:57Z] <shokara> at least for providing the web interface and wifi stuff
[2023-03-12T22:38:24Z] <midfavila> like if you look at ancient printers that's basically what they did
[2023-03-12T22:38:32Z] <midfavila> at least postscript machines did, sometimes
[2023-03-12T22:38:37Z] <shokara> that reminds me of how one gba cartridge dumper works
[2023-03-12T22:38:48Z] <midfavila> apple's original postscript printer had better specs than the top of the line mac at the time iirc
[2023-03-12T22:39:01Z] <midfavila> you just dumped postscript over a link and called it a day
[2023-03-12T22:39:25Z] <shokara> apparently some printers still let you do that, but I haven't gotten it to work with mine :(
[2023-03-12T22:39:31Z] <shokara> screw hp
[2023-03-12T22:39:33Z] <midfavila> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaserWriter
[2023-03-12T22:39:51Z] <midfavila> 1.5mb of RAM and a 12mhz m68k in 1988
[2023-03-12T22:42:03Z] <midfavila> i ought to get a SuperIO card at some point that actually works with my PC
[2023-03-12T22:42:34Z] <midfavila> i have a fully functional okidata microline 321 turbo printer sitting on a spare desk with 2k sheets of paper and like five years' worth of ink
[2023-03-12T22:52:41Z] <shokara> how would I force remove a package in kiss?
[2023-03-12T22:52:57Z] <midfavila> set KISS_FORCE to 1
[2023-03-12T22:53:02Z] <shokara> thanks
[2023-03-12T22:57:30Z] <midfavila> oh my GOD the next time a browser's video playback shits out i'm going to fucking scream
[2023-03-12T22:58:02Z] <midfavila> "why don't you just use a regular browser mid", "why don't you use a regular media player mid", "why don't you just use youtube mid" because NONE of it works better than my shitty shell script i hacked together in ten minutes FUCK
[2023-03-12T22:58:36Z] <shokara> why would you ever use the browser's video player?
[2023-03-12T22:58:45Z] <midfavila> i've been on slackware the past few days
[2023-03-12T22:58:53Z] <shokara> what's wrong with ffplay?
[2023-03-12T22:59:07Z] <midfavila> i'm too lazy to copy my scripts over and wire everything together on slackware
[2023-03-12T22:59:15Z] <midfavila> but i do use ffplay there sometimes
[2023-03-12T22:59:31Z] <shokara> an rsync/scp away...
[2023-03-12T22:59:44Z] <midfavila> nah, a mount;cp away
[2023-03-12T22:59:49Z] <midfavila> even less effort lmao
[2023-03-12T22:59:50Z] <shokara> even faster then
[2023-03-12T23:00:13Z] <midfavila> oh i also found out that glibc doesn't seem to like apport
[2023-03-12T23:00:46Z] <midfavila> it can't find getopt(3) despite me including unistd
[2023-03-12T23:00:54Z] <midfavila> so that's mmmmmmmawesome
[2023-03-12T23:03:01Z] <shokara> very fun
