<elzair>Alright, I am going to try it out now. I hope to be back soon.
<civodul>Guix mentioned in a systemd tro^Wdiscussion: https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2014/10/msg00838.html :-)
<taylanub>wow, didn't know they're still discussing that
<civodul>it's an endless discussion i guess
<viric>systemd, as complicated as windows, but open source!
<viric>GUI for systemd start to appear
<nukke>oh god please no!
<schjetne>At least it doesn't seem to use XML, like launchd does
<schjetne>Didn't FreeBSD look into porting launchd?
<nukke>yes they did.
<jmd>Where should the "high scores" record for games go?
<civodul>Hello Guix!
<jmd>civodul: Hi
<Ulrar>Is there a function already existing that would convert the number of millisecond since 1st january 1970 to some usable date format ? I'll do it myself, just wanted to check that I'm not reinventing the wheel
<Ulrar>And that's absolutely not the right channel, I'm sorry.
<civodul>looking at https://fosdem.org/2015/news/2014-09-30-accepted-devrooms/ i suppose we could target distros, configuration management, or Lisp
<jxself>Why "or"? With Guix all of that seems to roll into one topic. :)
<civodul>yes it's not an exclusive or :-)
<civodul>we need several people to handle that, though :-)
<jxself>I'd like to go to FOSDEM but probably won't be able to go to the 2015 one.
<civodul>too bad
<jxself>The legal and policy issues dev room is usually very interesting, from the recordings.
<civodul>yes
<tadni_>So, with the updated snapshot of guix -- should the guix vm/disk-image now install 0.7 instead of 0.6?
<civodul>tadni_: if you run "guix pull" first, yes
<civodul>well, previously it installed 0.7
<civodul>now it installs 0.7.something
<tadni_>civodul: Run pull on my host machine?
<tadni_>civodul: Also, are you saying that the GNU distro generated image should have installed 0.7?
<tadni_>prior*
<tadni_>civodul: Also, seeing that it might be a good idea to show off Guix, Dmd, and the General Distro -- Distributions seems like a better topic area than Lisp.
<tadni_>In regards to FOSDEM.
<tadni_>jgay: o/
<civodul>tadni_: yeah, Lisp doesn't sound like to best place to show off ;-)
*tadni_ is pulling latest guix on his Fedora box.
<tadni_>Okay, building vm -- let's see if it installs the latest Guix.
<tadni_>civodul: o/
<civodul>hey
