This tends to make project maintainers touchy because they're control freaks (like how they get about Debian stable or RHEL or whatever), but it does admittedly slow things down

fdroid will allow developers to ship their own signed binaries -- if the binaries are reproducible. https://f-droid.org/en/docs/Reproducible_Builds/

Pretty sure that non-root emulation on android has some pretty severe performance and permission limitations.

well, it doesn't need to be high performance or anything, but i figured out what i was doing wrong i just had a -nic and -netdev defined, without connecting the two so the proper command line looks like this code: networking works now. but it's also dinner time, so i'll play around with it some more later

hi thread. since I've been doing more serious coding in vim i've been learning more of the advanced features, like indenting blocks of text and stuff. it's good software. thank you for reading my post

eh it turns out networking "works" with that configuration (i.e. qemu doesn't complain about it not being connected to a hub anymore) but it still can't reach any outside hosts, so it doesn't work but idk, it should be able to, it's at least aware enough of android's actual network connection that it won't let me dhcp the same address range. bleh. whatever, i don't feel like spending any more time on this today e: this obviously doesn't deserve its own post and if you think the whole endeavor is asinine then don't bother reading, anyway, i was thinking about this a bit and i actually have a rooted android phone here, but it's a little older and slower (android 7 and snapdragon 617/3 gb ram in the rooted phone, android 9 and kirin 970/6 gb in the one i was using earlier). i guess i can try reactos on there over the weekend or tomorrow or something, but tbh i'm actually more interested in seeing if i can get arm windows running on it not unbearably slowly with kvm Beeftweeter fucked around with this message at 03:27 on Feb 16, 2024 |

I know Linux on anything earlier than a P4 is spotty but what are some good distros I can put on them? I thought about putting Red Hat Linux on them for period-accuracy but then I'd end up limiting myself to the pre-installed software. install windows 2000 and play nolf1 on them OP

Progressive JPEG posted:hard pass well, it uses the 2k start menu and you don't need to enable themes at all. or text antialiasing (it uses freetype's cleartype mode), the shutdown dialog is the dropdown server/2k type by default (although you can turn the xp-like graphical buttons on if you really want to), and the explorer clone is more in line with 2k's than xp (it has a normal search interface, no MSAgent there) etc. so it's really like a blend of the two i guess, the theme support is just to make it look more modern. one of the included themes makes it look kinda like windows 10 etc. but really, 2k and xp aren't really all that far apart anyway idk, it's like a 50mb download if you wanna try it, and there's a livecd that comes with a few utilities and poo poo. but installing it took less than 5 minutes under qemu on a relatively old phone, i have no doubt it'd be even faster on a "real" vm platform

mystes posted:It's cool that there are crazy people making stuff like reactos but I don't think there's any logical reason to actually use it it's a windows-compatible os for older hardware that supports newer windows software (it shares compatibility with wine), i think that has some utility but otherwise yeah, i don't think anyone should use it for anything serious. imo it's still neat though, and it was easier to grab a reactos image than to pirate win2k or whatever from the internet archive to play with qemu on android

i don't find myself working any faster with vim than with vscode the one thing i do like about vim is that i can record a sequence of commands (qq <commands> q) and then replay it e.g. a dozen times in one shot (12@q). handy for a number of tedious text processing tasks and much quicker than writing a one-off script.

ok so here’s what you do is like press control v, that takes you into visual block mode. then you press down and you’re selecting lines. once you select a block, press shift + i and it’ll go into edit mode. type a hashtag and then press escape twice. now the whole block is commented! isn’t that easy? to undo it, press control v, select all the hashtags, then press x
