aw. i had notions of eventually using carbs on my 32bit netbook.
<merakor>
I can keep i686, I just thought nobody was interested in it
<Digit>
it'd be nice. but i'm not up to competence/reliability to offer any service to that end, and not even "on the case" enough as a user to encourage it from that end either.
<Digit>
anyhoo, nice update. looking forward to the monthly updates. :)
<merakor>
To be honest, I would like to not drop support, but that is if somebody is using it
<merakor>
It's not hard at all to maintain i686, but it is pointless if not even a single person is using it.
<merakor>
I don't even need someone else to do the packages, just receiving input when something is broken is enough :D
<merakor>
Also yeah, I wanted to focus more on the update posts for a long time, thanks for your kind words
...
<acheam>
sad to hear about switching back to libressl
<acheam>
although its understandable
<acheam>
(at least its not openssl)
...
<merakor>
acheam: Yeah, it is unfortunate
<merakor>
I did like the simplicity of bearssl

I just received an invitation mail from Open Invention Network for Carbs Linux
<merakor2>
Skeeming through the member list, there seems to be a variety of other distros as well
<merakor2>
What do you think?
...
<Digit>
first glance at their website, corporate embrace.

i got the same email for oasis a few months ago
<mcf>
i didn't reply since i didn't really see the point for a small 1-person project, and i have no patents...
<mcf>
the email seemed like a template they filled in with distributions scraped from distrowatch
...
<merakor2>
Yeah, it was the exact day someone submitted carbs to distrowatch
<merakor2>
That's how I learned it too
<merakor2>
It is probably a scraper

2 fish, 1 says "how's the water?" the other replies "what's water?"... the fish that never jumps out of water, never knows it's in water. *nods*

wonders about just adding flames, to augment the logo
<merakor2>
Lol that sounds really edgy though

<merakor>
Digit: What do you say, do I release an i686 tarball?
<Digit>
awww... that'd tempt me to try it on my 32bit netbook... ... seems a perfect fit to rice up a neatie light one fit for task. no garuntees though, busy geekloads itching for a gap past my feeblenesses.
<Digit>
yeah do it, do it. :D heh.
<merakor>
Alright :D
<merakor>
Hope my netbook supports UEFI
<merakor>
I'm not sure of it
<merakor>
I don't want to compile grub
<merakor>
By the way, I made a bug-fix release for CPT earlier today
<merakor>
It fixes handling Ctrl-C interrupts during downloading package sources
...
<merakor>
Digit: I've released a new tarball for i686 :)
<merakor>
Apparently someone forked the repository of Carbs Linux on Sourcehut with the name Linx Linux
<merakor>
And I learned that by receiving mail from a failed sourcehut build, and my mail is on the repository build.yml file
<merakor>
And the mail this person is committing with isn't even real.
