Okay, it's still rough around the edges, needs documentation, tests and other stuff I'll slowly be adding but here it is: gagit, or #Gentoo #AGit workflow tool.

Damn… I swear Chromium is getting more bloated by the week.
Firefox is my primary browser, but I install Chromium for the rare occasions I need it (usually my use case is testing something I created works in Chromium).
Both are built from source (as is Gentoo tradition).
I've got two machines building it: on x86 with my Starbook out, I'm using my Panasonic CF-53 - Core i5-3320M @ 2.60GHz. On arm64 its the Argon One Up CM5 with a 16GB CM5 module installed.
The CM5 started its build Friday morning. Monday morning, it is still going.
As for the Core i5… I started it Tuesday last week:
```
1785163376: >>> emerge (9 of 16) www-client/chromium-150.0.7871.128 to /
…
1785600717: ::: completed emerge (9 of 16) www-client/chromium-150.0.7871.128 to /$ echo $(( (1785600717 - 1785163376) / 8640 ))
50
```5 days of solid compiling. Seriously Google, give it a rest! Just because *you* can afford to release every 5 minutes doesn't mean everyone can update that fast. This is a web browser not a bus! #Chromium #Gentoo

Qutebrowser, I love you, qtwebengine, not so much.
I am having to rebuild qtwebengine today, 3 hours 41 minutes so far. I reckon another hour left.

Once again I regret starting, but I'm done: stripped down the #Gentoo "py" package to the bare essentials that are required for pytest-forked (and the stable version of cffi).
Does anyone happen to know if there's a properly maintained alternative to pytest-forked, so we could get rid of py entirely?

Did I ever announce gentoo-kernel-modprep? It's the newest variation on #Gentoo Distribution Kernels: the absolute minimum kernel tree necessary for building modules. Ideal for package-building containers where a full kernel is unnecessary, yet you need to be able to build kernel modules.

Fast, resilient, and at home in stormy waters. The life of a #Gentoo.

Now that’s a weird one. Enabling the test suite causes spurious error at the later install stage… probably some leftovers being pulled in or variable override?

🎉 Breaking news for all 3 people who needed a #GTK4 #SSH-askpass in Zig! 🚀 We've finally moved past the stone age of #X11, just to appease the ultra-niche, hardened #Gentoo laptop users who apparently have a lot of time on their hands. 🐢💻✨

In other #gentoo news: Yay, I figured out how to use the "multiprocessing" eclass for multi-threaded testing!

okay, trying to find a "sane" commit on libgd's main branch is not too easy.
The current stable version seems to start to fall apart in newer PHP versions (mainly the test suite, nothing to worry in prod), so I'm really tempted to get an intermediate version in #gentoo...

Zero days since #pip added a random new functionality that depends on pip being entirely standalone and breaks when you unbundle the dependencies. And I'm unable to figure out why a bunch of tests are still failing.
EDIT: I'd appreciate some help with that. My WIP is at https://codeberg.org/gentoo/gentoo/pulls/1578.

@kerravonsen @danish_akhtar7 The part about #gentoo was a joke, obviously.
#Ubuntu... not so much. Should be up where the windows symbol is.

@danish_akhtar7 Ubuntu is in the wrong place and of course you are missing #gentoo, my beloved.

@Willy_Wuff Ich glaube, da liegt ein Missverständnis vor.
Debian ist eine komplett vorkonfigurierte Distro mit den z.T. besten defaults, die es gibt.
Da gibt es einen himmelweiten Unterschied zu #arch, #gentoo oder #nixos.

I've added a "contributing" file to #Gemato:
https://github.com/gentoo/gemato/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.rst
I guess I'm going to use this as a template for other projects of mine, hosted on the #Gentoo infrastructure and mirrored to GitHub or Codeberg.

RE: https://burnthis.town/@tissa_sketch/116994058848602365
Alguém com entendimento de blambers de OS conseguiria resolver esse mistério?
Queria ao menos ter um pista antes de tentar de novo, caso eu venha a tentar de novo.

Hello Fedi! My employer went through my #PostCovid time with me. Now that I'm back to work full time, they suddenly decided to let me go. 🤷♀️ I'm a #pentester with 5 years of experience in the field, before that 3 years of software dev in the #infosec field as well. Got a Bsc. in Computer Sience with emphasis on infosec and networke systems. In my #homelab I'm selfhosting on #proxmox and #k8s. I've been daily driving #linux for the past 20 years, first #gentoo, then #fedora. I'm pretty good with it, but no certs. I'm looking to continue in #offensivesecurity, but would be happy to pivot into infra/network or any other adventure given it's interessting or a good cause. Happy to invest in my skillset. Hybrid in north-eastern #Switzerland fully remote anywhere else.

And this "entitled prospective user" attitude. "I was planning on moving my projects to #Codeberg, but now I won't". Oh, how sad that you won't give them the benefit of using their free services (okay, I'm sure you were going to donate).
Reminds me of the "entitled prospective contributor" attitude in #Gentoo. "You never heard from me before, but I don't like this new policy. There are dozens of new contributors with me, just around the corner, and now we won't be able to contribute." (This was about the copyright policy, so they could have contributed noncontroversially for a long time, yet they never did.)

@mikesax I mean sure, that's certainly a stance to take.
On the other hand... #Mozilla come forward with a quite open stance. #debian otoh is contemplating the converse. #Gentoo has had a no-AI policy for a long time now.
In sum, every reputable #foss org is thinking about how to deal with #ai one way or the other.
So you might be surprised that #codeberg weights it this way, which is fair, but the fact that orgs *are* taking a stance is hardly surprising, don't you agree?
