[2026-05-31T02:33:40Z] <ilt> kris_: you can use v4l2loopback for screen casting
[2026-05-31T07:45:38Z] <midfavila> switched back to nouveau from nvidia's pooprietary shitware 
[2026-05-31T07:46:00Z] <midfavila> i know that the in-house drivers are supposed to be higher performance, but man, nouveau just feels /snappy/ in a way that nvidia didn't
[2026-05-31T07:46:12Z] <midfavila> maybe it has to do with the card being older idk 
[2026-05-31T07:47:26Z] <midfavila> i made sure to get a first-gen kepler since that's the latest discrete desktop gpu you can run without proprietary blobs, so maybe they're just benefiting from ages of work by the nouveau folks...
[2026-05-31T07:47:34Z] <midfavila> either way, best twenty bucks i ever spent
[2026-05-31T07:47:49Z] <midfavila> quadro k1200 is a fantastic little workstation card if you aren't doing gpu intensive stuff 
[2026-05-31T07:49:33Z] <midfavila> i'm hoping those new cards from china end up being well supported 
[2026-05-31T07:50:09Z] <midfavila> even if they aren't as powerful as nvidia or amd's models, being lower cost and having more robust software is a huge selling point 
[2026-05-31T07:50:37Z] <midfavila> i think linux is also pretty big in china compared to western aligned countries so maybe that could play a part in things...
[2026-05-31T07:50:41Z] <midfavila> who knows
[2026-05-31T07:50:42Z] * midfavila yaaaawns
[2026-05-31T07:50:43Z] <midfavila> long day
[2026-05-31T14:11:20Z] <dery> midfavila: I think proprietary is supposed to be faster on cards with locked reclocking
[2026-05-31T14:11:41Z] <dery> otherwise you're just missing mesa's kick-ass userspace
[2026-05-31T14:11:43Z] <kris_> well well well
[2026-05-31T14:11:49Z] <kris_> look who it is
[2026-05-31T14:11:55Z] <dery> yes it is me
[2026-05-31T14:12:06Z] <dery> pepsimaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan
[2026-05-31T14:12:52Z] <kris_> godot is pretty nice
[2026-05-31T14:13:06Z] <kris_> in addition, fuck i am tired
[2026-05-31T14:14:44Z] <dery> eepy time?
[2026-05-31T14:14:55Z] <kris_> idk, i only managed to sleep like 3 hours or something last night
[2026-05-31T14:15:38Z] <dery> oof
[2026-05-31T16:57:47Z] <kris_> my website renders pretty well in eww, apparently
[2026-05-31T16:57:54Z] <kris_> i just discovered emacs has a built in terminal web browser
[2026-05-31T17:00:31Z] <midfavila> yes
[2026-05-31T17:00:37Z] <midfavila> eww is comfy
[2026-05-31T17:00:49Z] <midfavila> also it's not a browser it's a wowser smdh
[2026-05-31T17:01:29Z] <sad_plan> is it because it wows you when using it?
[2026-05-31T17:01:39Z] <midfavila> yes
[2026-05-31T17:01:50Z] <sad_plan> nice
[2026-05-31T17:10:18Z] <kris_> i feel like i dont need to say this but this is just silly
[2026-05-31T17:10:30Z] <kris_> not terminal web browsing as a whole but i just didnt expect this to be a default built in thing
[2026-05-31T17:10:33Z] <kris_> what else is here that i dont know about
[2026-05-31T17:22:52Z] <kris_> dude theres a music player
[2026-05-31T19:41:15Z] <midfavila> kris_: there are like three different calculators
[2026-05-31T19:41:19Z] <midfavila> also a spreadsheet 
[2026-05-31T19:41:26Z] <midfavila> and tetris and a text adventure game
[2026-05-31T19:50:47Z] <kris_> yeah im kinda wondering how much effort it would be to turn this stuff off
[2026-05-31T19:50:55Z] <kris_> at build time i mean
[2026-05-31T19:59:12Z] <sad_plan> whats more curious here is who thought adding all this stuff in the first place to a texteditor was a good idea. im kinda curious as to the rationale here..
[2026-05-31T20:00:57Z] <kris_> the rationale is that it isnt a text editor
[2026-05-31T20:02:25Z] <midfavila> kris_: just remove the elisp files
[2026-05-31T20:02:29Z] <midfavila> it's not built into emacs
[2026-05-31T20:02:44Z] <midfavila> the only things that are built into emacs are its core routines
[2026-05-31T20:02:49Z] <midfavila> everything else is interpreted at runtime
[2026-05-31T20:16:37Z] <kris_> midfavila: yeah i figured it out, i got a custom build packaged
[2026-05-31T20:18:11Z] <kris_> im kinda itching to see how much this improves emacs startup time, it was around 250ms on my desktop before
[2026-05-31T20:18:18Z] <kris_> (and like a full second on my t480)
[2026-05-31T20:22:58Z] <kris_> i do like the idea of just a small C core and the rest is just elisp extensions, this compiles really fast
[2026-05-31T20:23:01Z] <kris_> for what it is
[2026-05-31T20:40:55Z] <kris_> "packaged," currently fighting through dependencies for melpa and whatnot
[2026-05-31T23:02:30Z] <dery> wondering how in the world I would even have an UPS
[2026-05-31T23:02:35Z] <dery> is that what PoE is for
[2026-05-31T23:02:52Z] <dery> so that I don't have to get like a bajillion UPS' one for every switch
