@katiekats Everyone on twitch does it for exactly those sorts of benefits, obviously.
-
@katiekats ...duke? Isn't allowed to be called king. Because he's not the kind.
-
@katiekats That's kind of your own fault because Philip isn't allowed to be called duke.

Or if they have updated it, then pkgsrc was so woefully inadequate when it came out that it was useless.
-
@lnxw48a1 In essence it was obsolete shortly after it first came out (Apt came out in 98, it released 97) and they haven't updated it since. OpenBSD used to use it but found it insufficient years ago; they wrote their own, new tools which are basically "pkgsrc but usable"
-
@lnxw48a1 The way to search for packages to install is "go to your friendly local package mirror and look through the directory structure." It also complains constantly, as in with every package you install, because the packages are built for NetBSD 7.0 and not binary compatible 7.1. It provides no way to upgrade packages as far as I can tell: you get a list of outdated packages and it's on you to update them all.
-
Next up: Plan 9. I think it'd be a great fit for the platform.
-
Been playing with NetBSD since I put it on my raspberry pi last night. Not horribly enthused, but usable. Package management is pretty bad.
-
@0x3f Not quite sure if poe's law.
-
@lnxw48a1 least he doesn't sound too much older than me when we're on discord.
-
@lnxw48a1 Is this an endorsement? I think I'm about @mike's age.
-
@kevie That's sad. I haven't tried a few of the breweries around here, but Booneshine makes a porter which is my favorite beer period, and AMB (where my current beer is from) does a really good hard cider, the pale ale isn't bad either, but I generally prefer darker beers.

@zoowar (For those who don't want to click through, Gävle is a town in sweden. They make a hay goat every year for christmas. Most year this goat gets destroyed one way or another for fun. When I say Gävle there I'm referring to their goat.)
-
@zoowar I'm a fan of the molotov cocktail method. You could probably sling that from far enough that the security guard couldn't catch you.
-
@zoowar Gävle's not dead yet? They only have 10 days!
-
@kevie Aww. My town's freakishly good for beer: 20,000 non-student residents and we have 5 breweries. The stuff I have now is from the next town over though. Our uni has one of the best brewing programs in the US, apparently, which is why we have so many breweries.
-
That time when Fat Tony got contracted to build wheelchair accessible ramps but he built them out of breadsticks
-
@kevie Been enjoying some locally brewed pale ale myself :) That was last night though.
