The Lounge is a pretty good browser-based bouncer that adam12 I think introduced me to that is a bit simpler than a VNC bouncer paired with a discrete client. https://thelounge.chat
<havenwood>
I do like zsh scripting. Not nearly the footguns of bash.
<havenwood>
I like the idea.
<havenwood>
`pp` actually seems useful.
<havenwood>
Sampersand47: For some reason I went on a common whitespace in filenames tangent. >.> Not the same as `pp` but made me think of odd filenames.
<havenwood>
testone: I like the idea of Ruby as still a "new language" but it does have some aging libraries indeed.
<havenwood>
I've been glad to seem some gemified and removed from stdlib as they're not maintained but some more are really due for being jettisoned.
<havenwood>
It really helps avoid stdlib bloat to remove old stuff as new is added. Has been refreshing to see more each Ruby major release.
<havenwood>
I'll throw a little party when ostruct is freed from stdlib. :) https://stdgems.org
<o0ox1eef>
testone: if I find the time, I might set up cinny in jail. Also might consider lounge.chat at the same time. Generally weechat works well, but with matrix and its modern features, I'm not sure a console client is really optimal. I think the one feature that Matrix forgot about was simplicity :)
<testone>
the real issue with matrix is money: they got too much money and started implementing every absurdity they thought
<o0ox1eef>
Makes sense. I'm not sure VC funding existed back when IRC was created (probably a good thing)
<testone>
moreover: tbh, I don't buy this 'you make your server and federate with others' wave
<testone>
a server like matrix is very resource-hungry and a real work to maintain
<o0ox1eef>
Yeah. For the average person it's not going to work. But at least it decentralizes control a bit. Mastodon is a decent example
<testone>
I eschew all facebook and twitter FLOSS clones like Sampersand47 eschew matrix ;P
<testone>
I dislike the very concept of them
<testone>
still prefer MLs and good old newsgroups, if they were still alive
<o0ox1eef>
That's fair. At the same time, outside of being "social media", they do solve a problem where a few big companies own most of the internet. Too much capitalism.
<testone>
the problem cannot be solved that way: if ppl buy 'smart' phones with preinstalled those apps, nothing will change
<testone>
here in .eu, privacy and antitrust authorities forced microsoft to stop forcing windows in new PCs and forced to remove 'default' programs
<testone>
but when it came to phones, they did NOTHING
<o0ox1eef>
Agreed. I don't think it is a battle we're winning. Sometimes I think about IRC as a nice snapshot of what could have been. It is much more community-oriented. We're not being sold anything. It's not a business.
<testone>
they aren't phones, they are small PCs that make phone calls too
<testone>
to worsen the thing: you cannot even control yourown device...
<o0ox1eef>
Yep. Phones are mostly a disappointment
<testone>
I wanted to buy a librem or <the other brand I don't remember>, but I ended up desisting
<testone>
ppl would anyway expect you to use whatsapp and similar shit
<testone>
the other brand wasn't expensive, and multi-booted between android, linux, etc.
<testone>
but why owning a linux phone if you have to use whatsapp in a browser?
<testone>
[I forgot to cite faiphone too]
<o0ox1eef>
Sometimes there's nothing you can do. Family, etc usually use whatsapp. We live in a world of consumerism.
<testone>
s/faiphone/fairphone/
<testone>
that is a trend and 'philosophy', but regulators are vacant!!!
<testone>
without rules, bigs do whatever they want ad smalls must swallow everything
<o0ox1eef>
At least from my perspective I think capitalism ate the internet. Things like IRC are just rare relics from a time when that wasn't the case yet.
<o0ox1eef>
Agreed. There should be some kind of balance but usually greed wins.
<testone>
the brand I forgot was shiftphone
<testone>
[hoping the F isn't 'volatile' ;P]
<testone>
and I forgot to cite pinephones/pinetablets as well, but they were usually out of stock and buggy
<testone>
I didn't know this HK-based kaios
<o0ox1eef>
Maybe I'll give it a try. Some are are too pricy for me (500~ euro) but the 200 euro models would be something I might get
<testone>
I'll wait for a 'market' phone easily hackable to be in used things shop ;P
<testone>
last android phone I really used was motorola defy+
<testone>
these old versions of android were very more 'open' than today's
<testone>
a lot of apps could use sensors in fancy ways to really help you and save time
<testone>
the real question is: how much buggy is it yet?
<testone>
and another is: are there still 'issues' with makers that change chips and schemes?
<testone>
pinenote is a thing! I'd like to work for while in a e-paper PC, to see if it really relax eyes
<o0ox1eef>
Yeah. The phones I saw are flagged as beta / developer grade but it is still promising and mostly affordable - one high-end option I saw.
<testone>
I wanted to by a RLCD of sunvision to see if it's better for eyes' health, but found no one already using it to ask for impressions
<testone>

nakilon: Might be a readline issue. I think nowadays rb-readline is used. Back in the 2.7 days I'm not sure that was the case, and might be an old version
<nakilon>
yeah, typical "upgrade ruby" to fix one issue and get two more; I don't even remember why I upgraded here from 2.6, probably smth didn't start at all; but there was no issues with plain old irb; maybe there is an option for fallback though
<o0ox1eef>
Not judging or anything but 2.7 is already quite old :P
<o0ox1eef>
It hasn't seen any updates since 2017 tho

Inline has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]

just two months ago or so (right?) I reported here that "bundle install" takes 30 seconds on all distros with ruby 2.7; so it's now two issues total if I don't miss anything else
<o0ox1eef>
Fair enough :)

nakilon: Not light weight per se. Simpler to configure than two separate tools that aren't already wired together by convention or just working. Self hosted bouncer with minimal configuration or fiddling.
<havenwood>
If I was hired to work on Ruby 2.7 I'm afraid I'd consider it hired to upgrade Ruby. ;)
<havenwood>
Reline was around by 2.7 too, so might be using that rather than rb-readline if readline wasn't available. https://stdgems.org/reline/
<nakilon>
I upgraded it from 2.6
<havenwood>
If you do want to use the readline extension, might consider installing readline-ext gem.
<havenwood>
nakilon: Nice.
<nakilon>
I wonder how to figure out if the driver registered in capybara was started, i.e. whether the `.browser` was invoked, so I won't start it needlessly "to screenshot the error" that has happened without a browser

maybe not the right channel but serverspec-init asks, "Vagrant instance y/n:"... does that mean where serverspec will connect or the machine ruby is running on?
