<luk>
i compiled my own 6.2.8 with fix
<luk>
:^)
<myzb>
what a pro
<luk>
building kernel with patches is simple in fedora
<myzb>
arch shouldn't be to hard either, never tried though
<luk>
fedpkg clone -a kernel ; cd kernel ; ** put your shit in linux-kernel-test.patch ** ; fedpkg local
<luk>
that's how it is here
<myzb>
I may look into that at one point, always interested me how its done
<myzb>
all i know is menuconfig savedefconfig
<myzb>
edit Kconf add stuff
<luk>
i used to build custom kernel with patch that'd hide tracerpid from procfs
<myzb>
was that for your csgo hacks?
<luk>
yeah, for a while
<luk>
then valve removed the check
<myzb>
I must say I missed this kind of stuff, mostly programming as of late
<myzb>
some some software integration things
<luk>
at real work i can say that I'm very guilty of not doing much most days...
<myzb>
I'm doing automotive stuff, some guy of the other team has to bring up a qualcomm eval board
<myzb>
no clue which one
<myzb>
the SDK had all the android goodies and we started joking lets bringup android on it
<luk>
well, I'm totally fine with my work
<luk>
being paid and not doing much
<myzb>
what are you doing, working at?
<luk>
is better than spending 8h+ actually working
<luk>
the project I'm assigned to is the most boring thing out there
<luk>
a patient management software
<luk>
but I'm sometimes also working on integration with other medical software they have
<luk>
which sometimes involves reading shit written in gfa basic 32 of all things
<myzb>
oh damn
<luk>
because they went from gfa basic is all the shit
<luk>
to visual basic
<luk>
to cpp/qt
<myzb>
thats the worse
<myzb>
well but with cpp/qt
<myzb>
ur better off in the future
<myzb>
at my last job they used a scripting language called TCL/tk
<myzb>
for the whole GUI and it was a mess
<luk>
yes, i joined not knowing anything about qt
<luk>
i wrote one app in qt before actually joining
<myzb>
I'm programming a lot for QNX atm
<luk>
just to see what's the API like
<myzb>
Isn't there like a GUI tool to design Qt stuff
<myzb>
where you only have to fill the callbacks?
<luk>
yes, but we don't use it
<luk>
xd
<luk>
we just write UI in QML
<myzb>
ok, I remember writing a simple window for Qt in cpp once
<luk>
qml is great
<luk>
at least until windows accessibility kicks in
<myzb>
oh windows ...
<myzb>
yeah
<myzb>
that
<luk>
for some reason my work app was really slow but only for me
<myzb>
you use windows or linux at work?
<luk>
turned out to be windows accessibility trying to traverse whole window many times
<luk>
windows xd
<luk>
and wsl
<myzb>
we use windows aswell, sadly
<luk>
because i don't want to use git in windows
<luk>
everyone else uses smartgit
<myzb>
but developers are slowly realizing that linux is superior
<luk>
which i find pretty cringe
<myzb>
yeah
<luk>
well, the problem is that everything they make is for windows
<myzb>
here most serious devs use wsl
<myzb>
i see, makes sense
<myzb>
developing under windows is just to anoying
<luk>
maaaaaybe the server part will one day be able to run on Linux
<luk>
but idk about that
<myzb>
and setting up build pipelines and stuff under linux is way easier
<myzb>
tool integration
<myzb>
I had to work with an indian colleage 2 weeks ago
<myzb>
and he had to push binaries onto a devboard
<myzb>
was cringe seeing him dragging the binaries via GUI
<myzb>
WinScp
<luk>
idk, some people just don't bother writing scripts for that kind of stuff
<myzb>
I mean you can just use scp
<myzb>
under linux
<myzb>
and to run the stuff just execute the programm via ssh
<luk>
maybe the painful experience of trying to get something done in android is really helpful in real life
<myzb>
it is, like the basic stuff I knew has helped me so much
<myzb>
knowing git command line and ssh
<luk>
or working with large projects without extensive documentation or any help
