@mhoye @cnx I dont think that is a good example of why Ubuntu got popular, it was more of the stuff contained in it that for a long time Debian was trying to avoid. Now corrected with bookworm with the use of non-free firmware.

and honestly dont think using Ubuntu is a good example, as its popularity also comes from the intense approach to commercial partners and other decisions.

it is never fair to compair a company with lots of funds vs free volunteer work, the scale is unbalanced.

@cnx @mhoye oh yeah I can understand that part. so many headaches over the years with projects using autoreconf/automake/autohell stuff that just breaks for the most random reasons... 😱
for much that I dislike cmake, at least it made things more standardized.

@mhoye what about those without an installer? why is an installer even needed? just grab the release binaries, typically from a linux distro repo near you

@bitbucket90 @monsieuricon on this case it is not convenience, just the amount of resources available.

I would actually say github actions can sometimes *NOT* be convenient, their CI job syntax is inconsistent on what is allowed or not, making it a pain to use sometimes. So basically it is alike any other CI platform.
Convenience might be due to reusing CI actions, but that is not unique to GitHub.

/me still hoping to see federated git scm (regarding tickets, planning etc around a project)

@monsieuricon with the way some folks (ab)use their free CI (myself included) it is not hard to think these "free" services will be severely limited at some point.
8x 2h+ builds for every commit is a bit much, plus 8x 1Gb artifact per commit/build too...

lets see how long all this "free" stuff lasts...

With 92% of the videos released, we'd like to point out that since end of Day 3, we are using the awesome master_me plugin (github.com/trummerschlunk/mast) to level and condition the audio for an even better listening experience. Thanks to @trummerschlunk and team for providing this awesome software, and thanks for @Simpel for the rigorous testing!

Next up: using master_me in our streaming pipeline! /dm

With today's release of #Debian 12 (bookworm), it becomes even easier to install the #REUSE tool that helps with declaring licensing and copyright in your projects, following the most advanced best practice:

sudo apt install reuse

packages.debian.org/bookworm/r

Congratulations to the @debian community for their successful release!

Linux Torvald's logging on to Fedi once a month to roast a nerd and logging back out, probably the only one who knows how to use social media

@marcan@treehouse.systems oh also not possible. interesting little detour finding why. makes sense as it can be easily abused haha

@marcan@treehouse.systems @riedler@catcatnya.com oh it is not stackoverflow.com/questions/92
but if color is allowed... `rgba(0,0,0,0)` maybe an option?

@marcan@treehouse.systems @riedler@catcatnya.com is opacity:0 allowed?

@morgthorak I think you might want to make sure you don’t follow me.

Because your “woke communist propaganda” comment makes me think you’re a moron of the first order.

I strongly suspect I am one of those “woke communists” you worry about. But you probably couldn’t actually explain what either of those words actually mean, could you?

I’m a card-carrying atheist, I think a woman’s right to choose is very important, I think that “well regulated militia” means that guns should be carefully licensed and not just randomly given to any moron with a pulse, and I couldn’t care less if you decided to dress up in the “wrong” clothes or decided you’d rather live your life without feeling tied to whatever plumbing you were born with.

And dammit, if that all makes me “woke”, then I think anybody who uses that word as a pejorative is a f*cking disgrace to the human race. So please just unfollow me right now.

by the way, the LADSPA/VST2/VST3/CLAP support needs latest Carla from git, which is not enabled on those PPA builds.
on those you only get LV2 and JSFX, though with carla-patchbay you can have the full carla just a bit less integrated.

Alright, who wants to try/test OBS with audio plugin support?
(Linux users only for now 🐧)

The related discussion and code changes are part of this pull request github.com/obsproject/obs-stud

I have automated build artifacts in github.com/falkTX/obs-studio/a

And also set up an Ubuntu PPA for easy install launchpad.net/~falktx/+archive

Make sure to install both Carla and OBS.
If all is well you will see 2 new input sources and filters - "Audio Plugin" and "Carla Patchbay"

Let me know how it works for you!

@cassidy @LWN except they also drop support for it, from what I understand RH had developers working on it. At least one of them moved to Collabora and will keep working on LibreOffice

Working on the final UI details for audio plugins in OBS.

Automatic plugin discovery is in place, but we can force a new plugin search if needed.

Hoping to have all in place already this weekend for some initial testing.

why is the rust community Like That

I know that if i'm getting deeper into embedded stuff i should consider it instead of c++, but ugh. Seems like there's a coc-shaped radiation cloud emanating from them every six months.
