[2023-07-21T05:12:19Z] <ruivlea> hi
[2023-07-21T05:16:11Z] <ruivlea> is nspr can be build without using lfs64.patch for musl?. i fail to build without it.
[2023-07-21T06:26:35Z] <xdream8[m]> <sewn> "how is dillo" <- it renders some sites bad and it gives lots of certificate warnings(i think i can fix this by patching it) but other than that it is good enough for normal browsing
[2023-07-21T06:35:50Z] <ruivlea> is dillo good enough to render static sites like suckless.org or sr.ht?

[2023-07-21T06:41:25Z] <xdream8[m]> it loads sites really fast
[2023-07-21T06:52:34Z] <ruivlea> is it still maintained? seems like hg.dillo.org cannot be accessed
[2023-07-21T06:58:08Z] <xdream8[m]> Yeah i couldnt acces it too that is why i tried to build dillo-plus first. dillo-plus seems to be still maintained and has lots of new features.
[2023-07-21T06:58:44Z] <xdream8[m]> if you use Xorg you can try to build it
[2023-07-21T06:58:58Z] <xdream8[m]> https://github.com/crossbowerbt/dillo-plus
[2023-07-21T07:04:54Z] <ruivlea> have you tried netsurf?
[2023-07-21T07:04:54Z] <xdream8[m]> i might later try to build netsurf if it works on wayland
[2023-07-21T07:05:49Z] <xdream8[m]> we wrote at the same time .d
[2023-07-21T08:13:45Z] <iceman[m]> oof, I might switch away from KISS, it's really taking a toll on development time
[2023-07-21T08:14:37Z] <iceman[m]> I really don't want to, so maybe I'll have another distribution along side
[2023-07-21T08:56:52Z] <sewn> <iceman[m]> "oof, I might switch away from..." <- how so?
[2023-07-21T10:36:38Z] <xdream8[m]> netsurf seems to renders sites a lot better than dillo
[2023-07-21T10:38:38Z] <xdream8[m]> <iceman[m]> "oof, I might switch away from..." <- just install nix or flatpak and use them to install time taking packages
[2023-07-21T11:21:10Z] <iceman[m]> xdream8: Thanks for the recommendation
[2023-07-21T11:21:15Z] <iceman[m]> I'm going to check nix
[2023-07-21T14:48:09Z] <rottatorg> hi, is there some reason why kiss's top level cache directory is hard wired to be in XDG_CACHE_HOME and not an enviromental variable like everything else?
[2023-07-21T14:50:32Z] <rottatorg> i'm currently installing kiss with a separate /var partition and it just seems like a more suitable place for it than like /root/.cache
[2023-07-21T14:56:08Z] <xdream8[m]> try setting 'KISS_TMPDIR'
[2023-07-21T14:56:56Z] <sewn> TMPDIR is where the package building, extraction, and compression will be performed
[2023-07-21T15:05:18Z] <rottatorg> for now i just edited /usr/bin/kiss directly to be able to set the location with KISS_CACHE and it seems to be working fine
[2023-07-21T15:06:29Z] <rottatorg> it just seems generally kinda wierd that only the TMPDIR can be changed but not the rest of the cache
[2023-07-21T15:09:52Z] <phoebos> good point
[2023-07-21T15:10:32Z] <phoebos> but of course you could use XDG_CACHE_HOME=/var/.cache kiss ...
[2023-07-21T15:10:42Z] <phoebos> etc
