PCLine_ownCloud – web services under your control 06:28
* Unit193 doesn't use it.06:29
PCLine_I need a way to share a calendar and contacts would be nice also.06:30
PCLine_and I think there is a way to sync Bookmarks with this06:33
PCLine_I will soon find out06:33
Unit193Not compatible with sync 1.5.06:36
PCLine_Looking at the link its 1.4 .... I might have a problem with 1.5  :(06:42
Unit193Lines crossed, there's only sync 1.1 and 1.5.06:48
PCLine_https://apps.owncloud.com/content/show.php/Mozilla+Sync?content=16179306:54
jenni[ Mozilla Sync apps.ownCloud.com ] - https://j.mp/192UQfi06:54
PCLine_I seen the 1.4 and thought that was the sync version...06:54
PCLine_might be the app version06:55
dzhoradicale, perhaps11:45
thafreaki use owncloud...not particularly jazzed about it14:04
dzhoa lot of these things I had hoped there would be clear python alternatives to, but the scale at which python programmers seem to write their code either leaves you with stuff that's smaller in scope or more general or something.14:06
dzholike, you could use django for this, probably, but uh.14:06
dzhoor you could cobble together some libraries and mini frameworks and whatnot.14:07
dzhoI wonder if python will just get skipped over and the oh-do-not-make-me-use-PHP alternative will end up being written in node or something.14:08
thafreakor ruby14:32
thafreakeverything is in ruby that's slick it seems...or yeah node is starting to take over some of the ruby14:32
thafreakbut I hear you...14:32
thafreakthere is seafile which is python, but it's not quite the same as owncloud14:33
thafreakit does things differently14:33
thafreakowncloud just sticks your files on the server in a spot that's writable14:33
thafreakyou can back them up or download them manually if things go sideways14:33
thafreakseafile decided to store everything in checksum named blocks14:34
thafreakso it can support deduplication14:34
thafreakeveryone writes their own thing and everyone does it differently, they don't just change code platforms it seems14:35
thafreaki would like to see something tied heavily to nginx my self...make nginx do as much of the heavy lifting as possible14:35
jrgiffordeh, i doubt there would be a ruby implementation. 14:35
jrgiffordruby community is too busy infighting over a bunch of other things right now to build something useful.14:36
thafreakfigures14:37
thafreakit seems like all the cool stuff is done in php or ruby, both of which I'd rather not use14:37
thafreakbut i end up being forced to (gitlab)14:37
dzhojrgifford: if you ever stumble across a good Cliff Notes summary of the ruby battle I'd love to see what that's about.  18:37
jrgifforddzho: it's just more of the same stuff that's been going on for years.18:38
dzhoyeah I don't really do ruby, but am interested in how communities define and defend themselves18:38
dzholike, I know |foo| is a thing in ruby :-)18:38
jrgiffordbasically, there's this weird situation with the different virtualenv-type tools18:38
jrgiffordand they keep bickering.18:38
jrgiffordAnd I say "they" in that while I am a contributor to one, I have apps that are tied to the 2 main players.18:39
dzhohuh18:39
jrgiffordthat's the cliff notes. it's been happening for years. 18:39
jrgiffordbut it's starting to flare up again.18:39
dzholike, I didn't get a lot from the whole systemd fracas except extended dance remix versions of "you're a poopyhead.  No, you are." until I read https://pappp.net/?p=96918:40
jenni[ Linux Future | PAPPP's Rambling ] - https://j.mp/1GxoR4018:40
jrgiffordBasically, some of the tools believe in the unix way. others believe in a little more hand-holding. the happy middle ground is to use the unix way (minimal responsibilities for a single tool), combined with docker/something similar to be a sandbox.18:42
dzhopaultag has a nice write-up on this wrt system tools vs language tools18:42
jrgiffordi don't remember seeing that. would be interesting18:43

paultagIt's so sensible you can't help but agree18:44
jrgiffordoh, nice!18:45
jrgiffordbookmarked18:47
jrgifforddon't ever take that page down paultag 18:47
paultagIt's one of my better posts18:47
dzhoah, there it is18:59
dzho:-)18:59
PCLine_Good afternoon20:46
