| <midfavila> | i honestly love this lil thing |
| <sad_plan> | have you tried compiling upstream 9front stuff instead of p9p? some of it should work right ootb |
| <sad_plan> | rc atleast, or so Ive been told |
| <midfavila> | ive gotten rc running |
| <sad_plan> | nice |
| <midfavila> | ye |
| <midfavila> | never bothered with the rest |
| <midfavila> | too focused on spinning up my custom distro |
| <sad_plan> | I dont really use much of p9 stuff outside of rc. and read from 9base, because of a script I use, which requires read |
| <sad_plan> | I get that |
| <midfavila> | still need to figure out X forwarding over TAP interfaces... |
| <midfavila> | for qemu |
| <sad_plan> | what will you be forwarding? |
| <midfavila> | i kinda wanna experiment with ideas from qubes |
| <sad_plan> | I see. separating things into its own boxes |
| <midfavila> | where you can spin up a headless alpine to run a given application |
| <midfavila> | yeah |
| <sad_plan> | its a good practice security wise |
| <midfavila> | so if theres stuff you dont trust/dont want corrupting the bodily fluids of your pure distro/etc you can do so easily |
| <midfavila> | tbh its mostly because i want to use firefox without installing its deps |
| <sad_plan> | yep. I separate garbage apps on my phone into its own user profile aswell. |
| <midfavila> | or using regular normie software EUGH |
| <midfavila> | i WILL use bearssl and NOBODY will stop me |
| <sad_plan> | could also use conty aswell, which might be a less inconvinent way of doing it |
| <midfavila> | conty? |
| <midfavila> | is that a containerisation thing? |
| <sad_plan> | here https://github.com/kron4ek/conty |
| <sad_plan> | its basically just a chroot |
| <sad_plan> | but it supports compression, x11, wayland, xwayland, drawfs squashfs |
| <sad_plan> | its mostly geared torwards gaming it seems, but you can use it for just firefox and other stuff aswell |
| <midfavila> | bing bing wahoos!? |
| <sad_plan> | what? |
| <midfavila> | nvm :P |
| <midfavila> | conty looks maybe interesting tho |
| <sad_plan> | yeah. you can also build it yourself pretty easily, so you can include only what you want. which is quite good imo |
| <sad_plan> | ive not gotten it to work on my setup yet, have no idea why, but oh well |
| <sad_plan> | maybe this is a tinyx thing. havent tried in velox yet |
| <midfavila> | tinyx is funky |
| <sad_plan> | yeah |
| <midfavila> | i like it though |
| <midfavila> | id like to work on it once i know more about C and X etc |
| <sad_plan> | yeah |
| <midfavila> | ofc id prefer MGR but beggars and choosers |
| <sad_plan> | mgr? |
| <midfavila> | ManaGeR |
| <sad_plan> | ah |
| <midfavila> | ancient graphics subsystem |
| <midfavila> | cross platform for unixes |
| <sad_plan> | yeah, i think i seen it mentioned in the irc logs |
| <midfavila> | monochrome. basically a supremely advanced terminal multiplexer |
