[2025-05-16T02:26:08Z] bep [2025-05-16T02:26:22Z] if any of you haven't tried those little japanese curry tablets you absolutely need to [2025-05-16T02:26:32Z] amazing weeknight dinner cheat [2025-05-16T02:26:59Z] some of those in a pot with a scoop of frozen veg can cook in the time it takes to throw a single person's portion of rice and lentils in a rice cooker [2025-05-16T02:27:06Z] full dinner with minimal cleanup for one in like [2025-05-16T02:27:07Z] ten minutes [2025-05-16T02:27:11Z] that's technology right there [2025-05-16T02:27:37Z] same deal with uhhhh like indian curry paste too usually [2025-05-16T02:27:59Z] there's these really solid ones that i can get at the shop for maybe 2.50, and one packet is enough for two portions [2025-05-16T02:28:02Z] good stuff [2025-05-16T02:55:48Z] ive had a really fun day due to gcc 14 [2025-05-16T02:56:15Z] if i ever actually finish my distro there's not a chance in the world anything important is built with gcc instead of clang [2025-05-16T02:57:08Z] anyway bouncer going down again for a bit i'll be back later [2025-05-16T03:06:50Z] midfavila first i'm hearing of curry paste [2025-05-16T03:13:37Z] kris_ you're missing out [2025-05-16T03:13:48Z] i usually get either patak or kitchens of india [2025-05-16T03:13:59Z] kitchens of india is nice because it's all individually portioned [2025-05-16T03:14:04Z] you just like [2025-05-16T03:14:14Z] in the case of the indian curry pastes i've used [2025-05-16T03:14:48Z] chop of your veg and meat, saute, add the paste and sometimes a little water and butter and then you let it simmer [2025-05-16T03:14:51Z] and then boom [2025-05-16T03:14:54Z] the japanese stuff is even easier [2025-05-16T03:15:01Z] comes in these waxy tablets [2025-05-16T03:15:09Z] literally just add to a pot of water and simmer until dissolved [2025-05-16T03:15:21Z] add whatever you'd like and you're off [2025-05-16T03:15:38Z] tonight i was using "vermont curry" which is like a milder, sweeter curry [2025-05-16T03:15:43Z] but usually i prefer golden curry or glico [2025-05-16T04:55:16Z] midfavila yeah i may try it later [2025-05-16T04:55:41Z] sorry my bouncer has been in and out because gcc 14 broke LXC which downed literally all of my public or public-esque infra [2025-05-16T04:56:09Z] clang when [2025-05-16T07:30:14Z] finally everything back up [2025-05-16T08:06:27Z] kris_: Do you really mean gcc 14, or gcc 15? [2025-05-16T08:07:04Z] 14. i run all of my servers atop void and an lxc rebuild was just triggered so the fact it was broken with the newly updated gcc kinda flew under the radar [2025-05-16T20:29:46Z] Hello! I'm planning on switching to kiss linux because I've had it even with artix and i have several questions. [2025-05-16T20:29:59Z] 1. Is bare alsa really sufficient or i will need a sound server on top of it? [2025-05-16T20:31:22Z] 2. How hard it is to setup printers and scanners? [2025-05-16T20:47:17Z] Any idea on how to install kisslinux with encryption as the cryptsetup and lvm2 packages are not available in the community repos? [2025-05-16T22:26:23Z] drmcstsr: 1. it depends really on your usecase. I'm personally using PipeWire also for other reasons but I must say that it's pretty darn comfy [2025-05-16T22:27:26Z] like, from what I can tell, it makes amplification (more than 100%) easier and gives extra compatbility "out of the box" compared to say, using apulse or stuff like that [2025-05-16T22:27:46Z] also if you need to do screensharing from Wayland PipeWire + dbus (i know) is the best bet [2025-05-16T22:29:04Z] for 2. I'm currently running an older version of cups (no idea what the latest packaged version is) with a funky package for my old-ass printer, which I start on demand to print the occasional document or two. Note that the latest printers with real IPP and stuff like that are really, really compatible and there's a good chance that you might even be able to netcat data straight to it. In other words, as it's usual with printing, YM [2025-05-16T22:29:04Z] MV, but it's definitely possible [2025-05-16T22:29:18Z] (thank you IRC, it split YMMV) [2025-05-16T22:30:57Z] This distro is not that "hard" since it has made packaging and package forking stupid simple. Bundled with (mostly) very small and interoperable software, it makes for a killer in regards to system tweaking. You just have to overcome the fear of getting your hands dirty [2025-05-16T22:34:49Z] riteo: The only new thing for me is gonna be compiling my own kernel i guess. Other than that i have no problems with getting my hands dirty. My printer and scanner both need specific firmware and what i fear is the fact that it will be much more hard to set them up by hand instead of getting an easy solution from AUR. [2025-05-16T22:44:30Z] it's not horribly bad [2025-05-16T22:44:51Z] usually if you don't know what to do for XYZ package you can just reference another distros package, i usually look at apkbuilds for references [2025-05-16T23:02:17Z] drmcstsr: in all likelyhood it's "just" a cups plugin. The new versions seem to have changed the arcitecture somewhat so I think that I still stick to the 2.x series or something [2025-05-16T23:02:31Z] as long as it's open source you should not have too many problems [2025-05-16T23:02:58Z] the weakness of "alternative" distros like this is that 99% of precompiled binaries are guaranteed to not run [2025-05-16T23:03:22Z] without containers or crap, hence why I installed flatpak on my machine so that I can consoom my favourite games ;) [2025-05-16T23:11:57Z] Good thing i stopped gaming altogether, made my life ten times better and my view of hardware and software crystal clean [2025-05-16T23:13:19Z] * kris_ loves flatpak [2025-05-16T23:13:51Z] Welp, i am definitely going to try KISS [2025-05-16T23:14:18Z] probably with wayland, even [2025-05-16T23:14:21Z] :D [2025-05-16T23:14:36Z] feel free to ask here for any issues! [2025-05-16T23:14:53Z] thanks!
