tuxd3v | Well we have a new image for nanoPI NEO Air :) | 04:05 |
---|---|---|
c0rnelius | tuxd3v: bootlin worked on getting that working like a year and half ago I believe? It's why LibreELEC can make beta imgs for the SoC. | 04:07 |
c0rnelius | It still needs mad cooling though... As it over heats. | 04:07 |
tuxd3v | I have a nice cooler for it :) | 04:08 |
tuxd3v | I have downclocked it, to ~1Ghz | 04:08 |
c0rnelius | They did it for a bunch of allwinner stuff. h3/h5/a64. | 04:09 |
c0rnelius | Maybe others? I haven't bothered keeping track. | 04:09 |
tuxd3v | they discovered that downclocking it a bit, and also downclocking the dram would bring stability and a lot less heat | 04:09 |
c0rnelius | I have no clue whom contracted them to do it? | 04:09 |
c0rnelius | I would imagine it wasn't allwinner as they could care less :) | 04:10 |
tuxd3v | yeah alwinner takes support for free, that sucks, they should be the first ones to support their SoCs | 04:11 |
c0rnelius | Someone with pockets in the sunxi community I would assume. | 04:11 |
tuxd3v | but like any other boards the mainline support still have lots of patches to be applied .. its a mess | 04:12 |
c0rnelius | Thats everything | 04:12 |
tuxd3v | I dreamed with the day that we would have arm hardware with complete support, but now I see that things get improving bot its not optimal yet.. | 04:13 |
tuxd3v | I don't know if it will ever be.. | 04:13 |
c0rnelius | I'm not a fan Libre Computer but all the boards they released besides the shit that involved FireFly is all mainlined. No patches needed. | 04:14 |
c0rnelius | Of course they paid someone to do it, but still. Props. | 04:15 |
tuxd3v | I have no board from them, are they well supported? | 04:15 |
c0rnelius | They are... Well? I don't know. | 04:16 |
c0rnelius | I don't like the spokes person as we've had words. But the boards are fine. | 04:16 |
c0rnelius | I don't believe they have really released anything of real interest in a whiles? | 04:17 |
c0rnelius | armstrong from baylibre does most of the mainline work for them from what I can tell. | 04:17 |
c0rnelius | But yeah... Its that promise the world and deliver on nothing shit you get from a lot of vendors and then eventual support comes as the SoC gets discontinued. Usual BS. | 04:19 |
tuxd3v | indeed :) | 04:20 |
c0rnelius | But I could be being a bit harsh? I was about rash in our conversations :) | 04:20 |
tuxd3v | no, that's the true, support is coming but very slowly and sometimes we get disappointed because we were with bigger expectations at beginning.. | 04:24 |
c0rnelius | My personal feeling with most of the vendors that its just a racket. | 04:25 |
tuxd3v | you know that there are lots and lots of patches out there, that didn't make in time to mainline, we see that everyday :/ | 04:25 |
c0rnelius | Exactly...Oh it can do this and that and this... But here is the catch? Wait two years! :) | 04:25 |
tuxd3v | exactly :) | 04:26 |
c0rnelius | Arm moves so quickly that it just becomes stupid. | 04:26 |
c0rnelius | Its mostly all community driven. | 04:27 |
c0rnelius | Allwinner would be shit without Sunxi. | 04:27 |
tuxd3v | indeed, and right now you don't see new improvments new Socs being released and such, but when they do its crazy.. | 04:27 |
tuxd3v | c0rnelius, indeed, I don't know why allwinner doesn't make a deal with them, it would be the most logic choice.. | 04:28 |
c0rnelius | They don't care I would imagine? Making money for free? | 04:29 |
tuxd3v | Allwinner, now is creating new types of Socs even for Riscv | 04:29 |
c0rnelius | I like Allwinner. They just aren't team players. | 04:29 |
tuxd3v | it will be a big mess, whait and see :) | 04:29 |
c0rnelius | Like my Ex :) | 04:29 |
tuxd3v | :) | 04:30 |
tuxd3v | they are now migrating to OFTC | 04:30 |
c0rnelius | sunxi? | 04:31 |
tuxd3v | I was told that maybe when libera chat is stable, they maybe come to here.. | 04:31 |
tuxd3v | yeah sunxi | 04:31 |
c0rnelius | OFTC isn't there where all the emo kids hang out? | 04:32 |
c0rnelius | Lets cry some more... Seems fitting. | 04:32 |
tuxd3v | I didn't liked the Idea, but it was taken by someone important in the comunity..I respect him a lot, but I think he made a bad decision.. | 04:32 |
c0rnelius | I would think they'll just have a channel on both. Stupid not to really? | 04:33 |
tuxd3v | but they still are half in freenode, 20% in libera chat, and the rest in oftc :D | 04:33 |
tuxd3v | they are splited by 3 networks..crazy.. | 04:33 |
c0rnelius | That guy whom bought freenode... Didn't think that through huh? | 04:34 |
c0rnelius | For sure not a forward thinker, unless the plan was to alienate the base community? | 04:35 |
tuxd3v | yeah, he tought that he could just takeover of every thing.. | 04:35 |
tuxd3v | but he is a fan of IRC | 04:35 |
tuxd3v | he has plans to decentralize freenode, some seems good.. | 04:36 |
tuxd3v | Now the deal he made with Christel in 2017 ..that deal was too much for the community.. | 04:36 |
c0rnelius | Being a fan and understanding the underlining focus of the thing are two diff things I thinks? I could be wrong. | 04:36 |
tuxd3v | I believe Chritstel, sould what she had, and whats not :D | 04:37 |
tuxd3v | he tought that was for real.. pam lots of people fleeing.. he is now in damage control mode.. | 04:38 |
c0rnelius | Personally I'm not upset. I'm fine with watching things burn down when they need to be. | 04:38 |
tuxd3v | then the fact that he is the Crown prince of South Korea, doesn't help much, as this guys tend to be dictators.. | 04:40 |
c0rnelius | Its like dealing with google. No one company should have this much control. It seems to me thats the approach he took, but unlike google, google can just flick you the finger where he couldn't and get away with it. | 04:40 |
tuxd3v | and the guy seems that is a ok guy, but I never knew him, he is a fan of IRC for decades.. | 04:41 |
c0rnelius | Well that's what the media says | 04:41 |
c0rnelius | its called damage control | 04:41 |
c0rnelius | Honestly I know of no in my real world interactions that even knows what IRC is. | 04:42 |
tuxd3v | I saw in the news that Christel sold including users private data, to him.. can you imagine.. | 04:42 |
c0rnelius | So there is that part of it. | 04:42 |
c0rnelius | Yeah thats pretty messed up. | 04:43 |
tuxd3v | I understand that a company when sold the new owner needs to operate it, but that doesn't mean the older owner has the right to sell users own private data | 04:43 |
tuxd3v | that fricked me out a bit | 04:43 |
c0rnelius | People suck. thats all can say about it. | 04:44 |
tuxd3v | they could have done it in another way, grantings operational rights above the users data, intead of selling it.. | 04:44 |
tuxd3v | Christel is a bad person in my opinion.. | 04:44 |
c0rnelius | I lean more towards all people are bad people until proven other wise :) | 04:45 |
c0rnelius | motivations | 04:45 |
tuxd3v | that is a safe concept :) | 04:45 |
c0rnelius | I don't even trust my siblings :) | 04:46 |
c0rnelius | Well maybe one of them? kinda. | 04:47 |
tuxd3v | yeah even with family we get sometimes very disapointed, it already happened to me, and probably with almost everybody :) | 04:48 |
c0rnelius | For me its not really disappointment? I understand that... It's a lack humility and compassion. But now we've gone of the rails and got into subject matter that isn't really fitting for an arm channel. | 04:50 |
c0rnelius | off* | 04:50 |
c0rnelius | Anyway... people suck! :D | 04:51 |
c0rnelius | cheers! | 04:52 |
tuxd3v | :) | 04:53 |
