DocScrutinizer05WTF? https://maemo.org/ -> white page02:44
Oksanahttp://maemo.org/ works. Granted, https://maemo.org/ should either work or redirect, blank page is not fine02:45
DocScrutinizer05in konqueror and firefox02:45
DocScrutinizer05sorry, I can't log in without switching to https://02:46
* Oksana has same blank page for https://maemo.org/ in Firefox02:46
DocScrutinizer05IOW logging in auto-switches to https02:46
* Oksana tries to login... same https problem... going to http://wiki.maemo.org/ ...02:47
DocScrutinizer05I logged in on http: and it switches to white page as soon as I click "Go"02:48
OksanaWiki.maemo.org logs in... Without https, I am guessing. And it does not provide a login on maemo.org02:48
OksanaAt least, https://wiki.maemo.org/ is not blank02:49
Oksanahttps://garage.maemo.org/ is not blank, either.02:49
Oksana>> Without https, I am guessing. << Assumption which may easily be incorrect.02:49
Oksanahttps://maemo.org/ is blank in Google Chrome, too02:50
OksanaAttempt to login from http://maemo.org/intro/ gives same blank https://maemo.org/intro/02:52

antranigvwe heared about the Coding Competition. a friend of mine is asking if he can write an android app for Sailfish, or it has to be native?10:55
gryhah10:58
gry" Entries have to run on Maemo or Mer-based devices/platforms. " from http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo.org_Coding_Competition_201610:59
gryletmme see what sailfish is based on10:59
gryI think sailfish is mer-based so you're good to go11:00

DocScrutinizer05I'd even rule out android apps, it's like writing a game for an arbitrary console emulator that happens to run under maemo/mer13:25
DocScrutinizer05aiui the purpose is to get more native maemo/mer apps, not to add to the galactic zoo of android apps13:26
DocScrutinizer05((like writing a game for an arbitrary console emulator)) even worse: in this case the emulator would be non-free13:30
DocScrutinizer05at least afaik, or is sailfish's android compatibility stuff now FOSS?13:30
bencohhighly doubt it13:38

brolin_empeyjonwil: Is there a third-party (from a company other than Intel) chipset for an Intel CPU in the post-Pentium 4 era?  If yes, then maybe there is a motherboard from the last ten years with an Intel Core series CPU but without AMT/ME.14:59
jonwil3rd parties stopped making Intel chipsets years ago.14:59
*** Venemo has joined #maemo15:03
brolin_empeyjonwil: That is what I thought because the newest motherboard with an Intel CPU but with a third-party chipset I have seen is for Socket 478.  There are Pentium 4 CPUs for Socket T AKA LGA775 but I do not know if there is an LGA775 motherboard with a third-party chipset.  I think that all of the LGA775 motherboards I have seen use an Intel chipset.  I do not know about the original Intel Core AKA Core 1 because my experience is with eras older than or newer15:05
brolin_empeythan Core 1.15:05
brolin_empeyI do not know if an LGA775 Pentium 4 even uses the same technology as a Pentium 4 for Socket 423 or Socket 478, i.e., if an LGA775 Pentium 4 uses a core based on the NetBurst microarchitecture.15:11
Wizzupcore2duo can have ME removed15:18
Wizzupsee libreboot on x200 laptops15:18
*** freemangordon_ has joined #maemo15:22
brolin_empeyWizzup: ThinkPad X200?  Only Core 2 Duo even if the motherboard supports Core 2 Quad too?15:22
WizzupI don't understand your question15:23
brolin_empeyWizzup: You said Core 2 Duo but a motherboard, at least a desktop model, that can use a Core 2 Duo CPU can also use a Core 2 Quad CPU.  I do not know if the same is true of notebook motherboards, though.15:25
WizzupJust go to libreboot.org and see...15:25
brolin_empeyWizzup: OK but I was asking because I thought you may know the answer off hand.15:29
brolin_empeyI wonder if the early MacBook with white plastic (polycarbonate, IIRC) case I have has a Core 1 CPU.  I never use that computer because I do not have a power supply for it and I do not want to give money to AAPL.15:33

*** freemangordon_ has joined #maemo15:38
brolin_empeyDocScrutinizer05: DFI said that they need to modify the firmware for their computer/motherboard to add support for the model of LVDS display panel my company is using.15:39
DocScrutinizer05ouch15:40
brolin_empeyDocScrutinizer05: I did not mean that the firmware needs to be rearchitectected, I only meant that DFI needs to add support for the display panel we are using, which requires rebuilding the firmware.15:43
brolin_empeyrearchitected?  I do not want to sidetrack myself to look up the spelling of that word.15:44

brolin_empeyKotCzarny: (continuing our conversation from months or years ago about notebook computers with a proper (high quality) integrated display) I see that at least 2 or 3 models of notebook computers with an AMOLED display are now commercially available.  However, the deal breaker for me is that none of the models I found have a numeric keypad, not even the ThinkPad model. (fail)15:50
bencohdo you actually need a numeric keypad on a laptop?15:52
brolin_empeybencoh: Yes.  I intentionally avoid using the term “laptop” in this context because it is a misnomer.15:55

brolin_empeyAlthough, to be literal, I use a tower computer on a table at home, not a desktop (horizontal) computer case on a desk.15:58
*** at1as has joined #maemo15:59
brolin_empeyI wonder why Commodore released an all-in-one portable (luggable) C64 (the SX-64) but not an all-in-one portable Amiga.16:01
brolin_empeyIf you say that the power supply for the computer being external makes the computer not literally all in one, well, I have a Pentium II notebook computer, a Compaq Armada 1750, with an internal power supply.16:04

KotCzarnyi use systemd-less systems17:38
siceloi should think people protested when dbus first came out, pulseaudio, etc.17:39
sicelo(or Trump) :p17:39
KotCzarnydont start politics :P17:41
*** freemangordon_ has quit IRC17:42
sicelolol .. but it makes the point17:42
sicelodbus basically is unavoidable now, and PA is also hard to avoid17:43
sicelonot saying any of them are good17:43
siceloor bad17:43
keriomacos17:44
keriofreebsd17:44
KotCzarnynot true17:44
KotCzarnymy slackware only has dbus, and i can disable it17:44
kerio(the latter may spontanously grow up a pulseaudio but you can kill it)17:44
siceloyes kerio .. but not all of us can afford a MAC17:44
kerioye the latest macbook pro is a bit too insane :(17:45
keriofreebsd has gpu acceleration17:45
keriozfs17:45
kerioinit system that you can change with a text editor17:45
sicelothe price of an iphone can buy a good used car .. so a mac(book) is just out of reach really17:46

keriothe name is pretty damn silly17:46
keriobut it's a decent freebsd desktop distro17:46
*** tiss has quit IRC17:47
keriosicelo: the lack of a 32gb option in the new macbook pro and the lack of data checksumming in apfs are kinda turning me off apple, i have to say :\17:47
siceloyou'll have that thing .. what they cally it .. in place of F-keys ;)17:48
keriothat's pretty neat17:48
kerioand it also acts as a secure enclave for the purpose of fingerprint authentication17:48
bencohhow is removing esc key "pretty neat"? seriously...17:49
siceloi thought fingerprint stuff was no longer considered the way to go in security17:49
bencohand ... yeah, fingerprint is shit17:49
KotCzarnyyup17:49
KotCzarnybut neat17:49
sicelobencoh: where do you need to escape to or from ;)17:50
bencohkrkr17:50
keriobencoh: an "esc" virtual button is always present and can't be disabled by programs17:50
kerioif you're such a heavy "esc" user that you need a physical button for it, there's a key at the left of "a" that you should've been using in the first place anyway17:51
kerioserious vim users would scoff at you for suggesting to move your hands from the home row :>17:51
brolin_empeybencoh: In the same way as completely removing the numeric keypad from all unibody MacBook keyboards?17:53
keriothe horror17:53
kerioare you upset because every notebook manifacturer will do the same thing apple is doing 6 months from now, in a more mediocre way?17:56
bencohbrolin_empey: there never was any numeric keypad on macbook(pro)17:58
bencohapart from the Fn-* shortcuts that kinda looked like a numeric keypad17:59

bencohkerio: I'm not a huge fan of remapping capslock to something non-standard18:00
bencohbest way to mess with your muscle memory18:00
kerioyou should remap it to ctrl18:00
kerioit's amazing18:00
bencohI don't need to remap it to ctrl18:00
bencohI can use ctrl without my finger18:00
keriobut it's amazing18:00
keriosay whaaaat18:00
*** at1as has quit IRC18:00
bencohkerio: see this part of the hand that sits just below your little finger?18:03
keriook how do you hit ctrl but not alt or fn or super18:03
kerioalso isn't it like hell on your bones?18:04
bencohI don't do it on laptops18:04
bencohbut on external keyboards it's just fine :)18:04
bencohand no it's not hell :)18:04
bencohand I can it ctrl only18:04
bencoh(actually I can't hit alt/fn with it)18:04
keriooh because it's the leftmost key, i see18:04
bencohyup18:05
bencohit's pretty handy actually18:05
kerioanyway, the touch bar is cute18:06
keriothe new macbook pros are expensive18:07
keriohopefully the kaby lake refresh will support 32gb of ram18:07
bencohthe what?18:08
keriointel microarchitecture after skylake18:09
bencohah, latest intel cpu?18:09

brolin_empeykerio: I mostly do not use notebook computers.  My primary computers are desktop/tower computers.  A handheld computer that I can carry in my pants pocket is far more useful to me than a notebook computer.18:38
keriopyra?18:39
kerioor one of those awkward x86 ones?18:39
brolin_empeybencoh: Pre-unibody MacBook keyboards, at least on the MacBook with the white plastic case, have an overlaid numeric keypad.18:40
bencohbrolin_empey: *overlaid* and you had to use it with fn, yeah18:43
brolin_empeykerio: By “handheld computer”, I mean what is commonly referred to as a smartphone but I dislike that term because it is a computer that I occasionally use as a telephone, not a telephone that I occassionally use as a computer.18:44
keriobrolin_empey: oh, i thought you were cool :(18:44
brolin_empeybencoh: An overlaid numeric keypad works for me and is much better than having no integrated numeric keypad.18:47
bencohtrue18:49
bencoh(I never used it, but still)18:49
brolin_empeykerio: There are x86 smartphones, such as my retired Geeksphone Revolution and even some old Nokia model whose name I forgot.18:49
kerioyeah but those are bad18:50
