Cheri703paultag: I think brerverwherlmahd should be your official status pretty much anywhere you have a status18:36
paultagtotally18:36
paultagholy shit guide18:58
paultagDebian GNU/Illumos18:58
dzhooh, the open solaris fork18:59
paultaghttp://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.general/17672618:59
dzhoso, that's still ticking along?18:59
paultagyeah!18:59
paultagsomeone just got it working with Debian18:59
paultagthey have their own thing18:59
paultagbut it sucks18:59
paultagso someone turned it into another Debian hack18:59
paultagbloody great18:59
dzhoyeah, that could be pretty awesmoe18:59
dzhoa kernel you can get ZFS on without having to hack it together yourself19:00
paultagDebian GNU/Linux, Debian GNU/kFreeBSD, Debian GNU/HURD and Debian GNU/Illumos19:00
paultagthat's pretty awesome.19:00
dzhohaha, hurd19:00
canthus13dzho: do they even have usage statistics outside the devs for hurd?19:01
dzhocanthus13: I have no idea.19:02
paultagcanthus13: their website runs hurd19:06
canthus13paultag: Doesn't make much sense to write an entire OS jsut to run one website. :(19:08
paultagy'rly19:08
dzhoI had what I thought was a pretty good comparison the other day, in terms of free software history.19:48
dzhospeaking of the hurd, as we are19:48
dzhoback in the day, RMS gave himself permission to use proprietary stuff to help build free stuff, because you have to start somewhere19:49
dzhoand, so, they got most of the Unix userland replaced, and it was good.19:49
dzhobut, they got stuck on the kernel, because hurd19:49
dzhoand the thing is, they were working on all thise proper Unix hardwared.19:50
dzhohardware.19:50
dzhoanyway, from way out in leftist field comes Linus with his kernel.19:50
dzhoand, with a bit of work, it all comes together to what we have today.19:50
dzhonowadays, we've got this situation with the free kernel on Android, and some free apps aggregated through F-droid19:51
dzhobut again, several of your harder-core freetards (and I use that term with love, now, since I am one) are avoiding mobile hardware because it is insufficiently free.19:52
dzhoand I say "again" because in each case, you've got "serious" folks sort of dissing the popular, cheaply and widely available hardware.19:52
paultagyar19:53
paultag← freetard, as well19:53
