[2025-12-20T03:19:39Z] <kris_> sad_plan: yeah it goes on sale during christmas and stuff
[2025-12-20T07:23:00Z] <GalaxyNova> hey chat
[2025-12-20T07:23:04Z] <GalaxyNova> long time no see
[2025-12-20T07:45:18Z] <midfavila> ordered that ram drive since i got a little bonus for the holidays
[2025-12-20T07:45:24Z] <midfavila> let's goooooooooooooooooooo
[2025-12-20T07:45:31Z] <midfavila> 5GBps disc speed here i come
[2025-12-20T07:45:31Z] <kris_> GalaxyNova: i don't know you i don't think but hello
[2025-12-20T07:45:45Z] <midfavila> hi GalaxyNova 
[2025-12-20T07:46:08Z] <kris_> midfavila: RAM drive?
[2025-12-20T07:47:00Z] <midfavila> kris_: NVMe drive with DDR3 as the storage medium
[2025-12-20T07:47:00Z] <midfavila> lmao
[2025-12-20T07:47:16Z] <kris_> wtf
[2025-12-20T07:47:17Z] <kris_> why though
[2025-12-20T07:47:22Z] <kris_> what happens when you lose power
[2025-12-20T07:47:41Z] <midfavila> supercapacitors maintain the circuit's power while it dumps the dimm to onboard NAND
[2025-12-20T07:47:58Z] <midfavila> then the NAND is read into the DDR3 module on reboot
[2025-12-20T07:48:05Z] <midfavila> ~magic~
[2025-12-20T07:48:14Z] <midfavila> i just got one for 20usd
[2025-12-20T07:48:30Z] <midfavila> only 8gb but that's enough for four of my full-fat KISS installs
[2025-12-20T07:48:46Z] <kris_> i dont know what id use that for
[2025-12-20T07:48:54Z] <kris_> i can't fit jack shit on that
[2025-12-20T07:48:56Z] <midfavila> root filesystem root fileystem
[2025-12-20T07:49:00Z] <kris_> can't fit my rootfs on that
[2025-12-20T07:49:07Z] <midfavila> bloat
[2025-12-20T07:49:20Z] <kris_> yeah i have a lot of stuff on my computer mid
[2025-12-20T07:49:27Z] <kris_> 555.3GiB on my boot drive to be exact
[2025-12-20T07:49:32Z] <midfavila> what the fuck
[2025-12-20T07:49:42Z] <midfavila> why are you like this
[2025-12-20T07:49:49Z] <kris_> well like 400gb of that are videos 
[2025-12-20T07:49:52Z] <kris_> in my /home
[2025-12-20T07:49:56Z] <midfavila> oh
[2025-12-20T07:49:57Z] <midfavila> wait
[2025-12-20T07:49:59Z] * midfavila facedesks
[2025-12-20T07:50:04Z] <midfavila> i think i need to sleep it's 1am
[2025-12-20T07:50:16Z] <midfavila> my brain intepreted that as /boot == 555gb
[2025-12-20T07:50:23Z] <kris_> nah i dont have /boot on its own partition
[2025-12-20T07:50:26Z] <kris_> that's also just part of my /
[2025-12-20T07:50:28Z] <midfavila> w
[2025-12-20T07:50:31Z] <midfavila> wha
[2025-12-20T07:50:37Z] <midfavila> ...that's enough internet
[2025-12-20T07:50:48Z] <kris_> cmon mid i have the most ideal boot setup i could possibly have
[2025-12-20T07:51:12Z] <kris_> i mount my ESP at /boot/efi and that holds my UKI, the rest of my disk is encrypted and that UKI is self-signed for secure boot
[2025-12-20T07:51:16Z] <kris_> tinyramfs in my UKI decrypts my /
[2025-12-20T07:51:22Z] <midfavila> >uefi
[2025-12-20T07:51:22Z] <kris_> its as secure as it can get really
[2025-12-20T07:51:25Z] <kris_> yes
[2025-12-20T07:51:29Z] <midfavila> cringe
[2025-12-20T07:51:30Z] <midfavila> cuh-ringe
[2025-12-20T07:51:37Z] <kris_> say what you will but this shit is secure
[2025-12-20T07:51:45Z] <kris_> the only thing that beats it is libreboots grub payload
[2025-12-20T07:51:55Z] <midfavila> or glowies getting a 2x4
[2025-12-20T07:51:58Z] <kris_> you just store grub onboard and then use that to decrypt the drive so its literally fully entirely encrypted
[2025-12-20T07:52:01Z] <kris_> via libreboot
[2025-12-20T07:52:31Z] <midfavila> https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/security.png
[2025-12-20T07:52:43Z] <kris_> yeah im familiar with the xkcd
[2025-12-20T07:52:48Z] <kris_> people on discord send it to me regularly to make fun of me
[2025-12-20T07:53:14Z] <kris_> i dont expect any glowies to hit me with a wrench
[2025-12-20T07:53:19Z] <kris_> im not doing anything to get kicked in the gnads by a glowie
[2025-12-20T07:53:27Z] <midfavila> you live in america
[2025-12-20T07:53:28Z] <kris_> plus, 
[2025-12-20T07:53:32Z] <kris_> the glowies finding out i like getting hit:
[2025-12-20T07:53:37Z] <midfavila> 'i didn't do anything' isn't a defence against getting blasted 
[2025-12-20T07:53:42Z] <kris_> i didn do nuthin
[2025-12-20T07:53:58Z] <midfavila> into the van with you
[2025-12-20T07:54:05Z] <midfavila> off to CECOT
[2025-12-20T07:54:18Z] <kris_> i wonder how they'll deal with the fact that i kinda want someone to hit me with a wrench
[2025-12-20T07:54:27Z] <kris_> the worst thing they could do is NOT hit me with a wrench
[2025-12-20T07:54:37Z] <midfavila> they could just waterboard you
[2025-12-20T07:54:40Z] <midfavila> or stick you in The Box
[2025-12-20T07:54:40Z] <kris_> :3
[2025-12-20T07:54:44Z] <kris_> what's The Box
[2025-12-20T07:55:12Z] <midfavila> it's a thing the CIA developed where they stick you in a lockbox bent into a stress position for days on end without any clothes outside 
[2025-12-20T07:55:35Z] <midfavila> they could pull some abu ghraib shit if that doesn't work ig
[2025-12-20T07:55:42Z] <midfavila> although that's a US army classic, not a CIA thing
[2025-12-20T07:56:08Z] <kris_> i think i'll be alright mid
[2025-12-20T07:56:30Z] <kris_> did you see that louis rossmann started an MVNO
[2025-12-20T07:56:32Z] <midfavila> ur in 1933 germany rn
[2025-12-20T07:57:00Z] <midfavila> and yes i did but it doesn't really mean much to me because canada has public carriers
[2025-12-20T07:58:04Z] <midfavila> oh my god there's a homestuck anime
[2025-12-20T07:58:08Z] <midfavila> from fuckin australia
[2025-12-20T07:58:11Z] <midfavila> of course it's from australia
[2025-12-20T07:58:19Z] <midfavila> phoebos: we're deploying you on a crucial mission 
[2025-12-20T07:58:25Z] <kris_> im tempted to try out his carrier
[2025-12-20T07:58:28Z] <midfavila> you need to stop the launch of the homestuck anime at all costs
[2025-12-20T07:58:28Z] <kris_> right now im using atnt
[2025-12-20T08:00:12Z] <midfavila> inb4 trump nationalises the telco industry and launches freedomfone
[2025-12-20T08:00:18Z] <midfavila> liberty mobile
[2025-12-20T08:00:48Z] <kris_> atnt has been pretty good for me so i'm unlikely to actually move to louis' thing
[2025-12-20T08:05:33Z] <midfavila> kris_: https://www.radianmemory.com/nvram-accelerator/
[2025-12-20T08:06:04Z] <midfavila> SPEED
[2025-12-20T08:06:19Z] <midfavila> run four of these in RAID0
[2025-12-20T08:06:24Z] <midfavila> vroooooooom
[2025-12-20T08:06:31Z] <kris_> this thing is silly as fuck
[2025-12-20T08:06:36Z] <kris_> midfavila: unironically like
[2025-12-20T08:06:46Z] <kris_> you can get a 16gb optane drive for $10 on ebay rn and my motherboard has 6 nvme slots
[2025-12-20T08:06:54Z] <kris_> i was thinking about getting 4 of those and putting them in raid 0 just to see how fast it is
[2025-12-20T08:07:01Z] <kris_> iirc they're the speed of ddr2 on their own
[2025-12-20T08:07:38Z] <midfavila> nrooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom
[2025-12-20T08:07:41Z] <midfavila> vroooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom
[2025-12-20T08:07:49Z] <midfavila> vrmmvrmmrrrrmrmmrmrmrmmrmmBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
[2025-12-20T08:07:53Z] * midfavila makes engine noises
[2025-12-20T08:07:59Z] <GalaxyNova> yo
[2025-12-20T08:08:02Z] <GalaxyNova> nice engine noises
[2025-12-20T08:08:09Z] <midfavila> thanks i have 24 years of experience
[2025-12-20T08:08:15Z] <GalaxyNova> it shows
[2025-12-20T08:08:20Z] <midfavila> i also do machine-gun noises and missile sounds
[2025-12-20T08:10:02Z] <kris_> finally put a new coil in my vape
[2025-12-20T08:10:05Z] * kris_ is happyt
[2025-12-20T08:10:13Z] <GalaxyNova> kris_: I used to frequent this channel back in like 2021
[2025-12-20T08:10:24Z] <kris_> yeah i think i joined for the first time like last year sometime
[2025-12-20T08:10:34Z] <GalaxyNova> then I switched to OpenBSD, then to NixOS then to Gentoo ;-;
[2025-12-20T08:10:40Z] <kris_> wait its still 2025, sorry, early this year
[2025-12-20T08:10:47Z] <GalaxyNova> I used Gentoo back in 2020 also
[2025-12-20T08:10:55Z] <GalaxyNova> kris_: vaping is bad >:(
[2025-12-20T08:11:04Z] <kris_> i've tried distrohopping away from void a few times and it always burns me
[2025-12-20T08:11:18Z] <kris_> every time i attempt it the more justified i become :P
[2025-12-20T08:12:43Z] <midfavila> have you installed kiss yet
[2025-12-20T08:12:49Z] <kris_> mhm
[2025-12-20T08:12:57Z] <midfavila> >.>
[2025-12-20T08:13:04Z] <kris_> it's nice 
[2025-12-20T08:13:16Z] <kris_> that initial hurdle is more than i have time for at this point though, packaging everything i need
[2025-12-20T08:15:51Z] <midfavila> write a script to convert xbps scripts or w/e to kiss ones
[2025-12-20T08:16:16Z] <kris_> its not that simple
[2025-12-20T08:16:33Z] <kris_> and besides, i'd be writing my own build system for kiss if i were to actually like daily drive it
[2025-12-20T08:19:18Z] <kris_> though now that i know crux exists it does make things less painful by a bit
[2025-12-20T08:19:28Z] <kris_> given they have most of the things i need packaged and it's not unbelievably different from kiss' packaging
[2025-12-20T08:24:11Z] <kris_> friday night and hardly anyone on call of duty what is this nonsense
[2025-12-20T13:45:12Z] <sad_plan> kris_: theyre busy installing kiss instead. no time for CoD now, they have to compile the kernel
[2025-12-20T14:06:10Z] <kris_> sad_plan: :(
[2025-12-20T14:19:04Z] <sad_plan> kris_: which cod are you playing though? bo6?
[2025-12-20T14:19:10Z] <kris_> mw2 2009
[2025-12-20T14:28:40Z] <sad_plan> ah, right. because of the project you do aswell
