[2026-02-23T00:01:07Z] im not convinced alpine tests jack shit [2026-02-23T00:22:24Z] that might very much be the case too :p [2026-02-23T00:22:47Z] i stopped taking alpine seriously when i moved stable releases like a month after a new release came out and all of my machines quit booting [2026-02-23T00:22:54Z] because they didn't test the stub loader which is required for UKIs to work [2026-02-23T00:23:19Z] bit of my fault but i was like "its been out for a month i figure most catastrophic issues are gone" [2026-02-23T00:42:28Z] one would belive that after a month, any issues shouldve been ruled out by now. [2026-02-23T00:46:46Z] situations like that kinda breaks one trust in the maintainers. so I for sure do get why you no longer take alpine seriously after that :p [2026-02-23T00:47:01Z] although, it can obvously be a one off. or w/e its called [2026-02-23T01:30:34Z] i mean there are other things too [2026-02-23T01:30:41Z] i can't tolerate openrc, id rather have systemd [2026-02-23T01:31:06Z] and while i could replace openrc with runit, at that point why am i using alpine instead of something that has what i consider to be a more sensible configuration out of the box [2026-02-23T01:31:07Z] (void) [2026-02-23T01:48:35Z] touhe [2026-02-23T01:49:08Z] kiss' default config really is what i consider to be perfect in terms of software choice [2026-02-23T01:49:16Z] i just genuinely have not had the time to package all of the stuff i want/need [2026-02-23T01:49:33Z] busybox is just so good [2026-02-23T01:56:13Z] sure, busybox is decent. much more sane than gnu. but less so than sbase/ubase. although, sbase/ubase is less complete, and for many, has not enough features. it works for me though [2026-02-23T01:57:02Z] probably why I keep staying with my oasis+kiss install.. although Im working on my rc package manager, which technically should replace kiss in this instance. but I dunno. lot of work really.. [2026-02-23T01:57:31Z] i prefer gnu coreutils [2026-02-23T01:57:41Z] but busybox is fine enough for the most part [2026-02-23T01:57:48Z] sbase/ubase are WAY too minimal for me [2026-02-23T02:04:20Z] I get that. I hade some gripes with some missing shit on sbase/ubase myself, but I eventually got to fix them, so it was no longer any big deal [2026-02-23T02:05:08Z] next on the list is switch to sbase's new bc implementation. buuut kernel doesnt build with it due to a file. and im not very good with bc.. havent tested building everything else though. [2026-02-23T02:05:25Z] I dont belive bc is too much used among the packages I use though [2026-02-23T02:05:29Z] so probably not a big deal [2026-02-23T02:06:26Z] id like to try gnu guix again on desktop at some point [2026-02-23T02:06:38Z] that's a very me-coded distro [2026-02-23T02:13:09Z] I get that. I like to put things together myself instead though. like build your own. like kiss. but a step further than that [2026-02-23T02:13:41Z] https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=gBQ2d2LPCTo [2026-02-23T02:17:00Z] good one mid [2026-02-23T02:44:43Z] it made me giggle a little, at least uwu [2026-02-23T02:51:04Z] ditto [2026-02-23T03:54:31Z] lmfao [2026-02-23T04:24:50Z] kris_: you need to take notes [2026-02-23T19:48:12Z] god i need to find a different email provider stat [2026-02-23T19:48:27Z] proton is so shit [2026-02-23T19:48:36Z] it *used* to be good, like five years ago [2026-02-23T19:51:23Z] i switched to tutanota [2026-02-23T19:54:30Z] i just don't understand why protonmail needs 1GB of memory and like fifteen fucking seconds to render what amounts to a text document [2026-02-23T19:54:35Z] it's fucked up [2026-02-23T19:59:29Z] you could host a bridge if you want and then just use neomutt [2026-02-23T20:00:36Z] but this is why i just use an email custom domain [2026-02-23T20:00:47Z] so i can switch providers without having to move accounts around [2026-02-23T20:05:11Z] i'm just so annoyed by all of this [2026-02-23T20:05:20Z] why do i constantly need to hand out email and phone numbers [2026-02-23T20:05:23Z] for in person services [2026-02-23T20:05:30Z] why can i not just present government ID? [2026-02-23T20:06:30Z] like, if i go to my bank, it's the same teller, every time. i have the same debit card, that that teller issued. i gave them my provincial ID. i have to give it to them when i perform any major services. why do i also need to provide an OTP for *in-person services*? [2026-02-23T21:39:24Z] midfavila: I feel you man. im considering switching away from proton too. but probably for other reasons aswell. but I also feel you regarding email/phone# for everything [2026-02-23T21:40:36Z] our banks doesnt really do in-persion stuff anymore though, everything is over phone now or online. only things like signing offical documents which has to be signed by hand [2026-02-23T21:40:56Z] hell even loan documents arent signed by hand anymore [2026-02-23T21:42:17Z] i refuse to do business with an online bank [2026-02-23T21:42:19Z] i *refuse* [2026-02-23T21:42:24Z] i won't stand for it [2026-02-23T21:42:40Z] i'll go back to using cash. [2026-02-23T21:45:51Z] another thing that makes me right fucking angry [2026-02-23T21:46:06Z] OTPs being demanded from an IP or device that should be recognised [2026-02-23T21:46:17Z] especially when the site offers to just email you a login link [2026-02-23T21:46:28Z] why even fucking ask for me to set up a password if i'm just going to open my email anyway??? [2026-02-23T22:02:25Z] well, banks here do have a physical location you can visit, but my old bank just made it really difficult to really do anything in-person. my new bank seems to be less difficult in this regard though. most things can be done online anyway, and seems to be prefered to be done online, if possible [2026-02-23T22:02:34Z] yeah i know, its stupid as fuck [2026-02-23T22:03:34Z] my banking app has also started to act up. so each time I try to log in with a pin, it just says my credentialsl has expired, so I need to reauthenticate. however, now I hae to do it EVERY DAMN TIME i log in to see my balance.. [2026-02-23T22:03:47Z] its probably some bug though, but its been like that for a while now... [2026-02-23T22:05:10Z] no, that's jst how it is these days [2026-02-23T22:05:18Z] i have to authenticate myself what feels like every other page [2026-02-23T22:09:22Z] I refuse to belive that this is by design. ive never had to reauthenticate before, but I think its a good security measure to make people reauthenticate once in a while. but now I have to do it every time I go into the app, like im login in for the first time ever time. I hate it [2026-02-23T22:09:49Z] I used to app because it was more convinient. now I might aswell just use their webpage instead [2026-02-23T22:34:59Z] but alas, maybe what im saying isnt being portraied as I see it. to log in, you have to enter ssn, then authenticate with bankid, which is our authentication app system which is used in scandinavia, then enter bankid password, create pin, and voila. now you can enter the pin, instead of the wholle shebang. but in my case, I have to do the whole thing each time
