<gnucode>hello friends!
<diegonc>o/
<azert>youpi: I introduced a typo in the last commit, sorry for that https://cgit.git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/hurd/gnumach.git/tree/ipc/ipc_kmsg.c#n2327
<azert>missing brace
<azert>the mailing list doesn’t let me send a patch it gets spam filtered
<jab>sneek later tell diegonc I'm an OpenBSD fan. What's so cool about adjfreq () ?
<sneek>Okay.
<azeem> /w 41
<azeem>meh
<jab>w/ 41 ?
<jab>this seems kind of interesting: https://piechowski.io/post/git-commands-before-reading-code/
<diegonc>o/
<sneek>diegonc, you have 1 message!
<sneek>diegonc, jab says: I'm an OpenBSD fan. What's so cool about adjfreq () ?
<diegonc>jab: I have no idea :P It's just a dependency of openntpd
<diegonc>it fiddles with the clock somehow
<jab>oh gotcha.
<jab>well it sounds like AI is trying to find 0 day exploits now. https://red.anthropic.com/2026/mythos-preview/
<nexussfan>Does ftpfs connect to custom ports not just 21?
<sneek>nexussfan, you have 1 message!
<sneek>nexussfan, jab says: wanna port OpenNTPd to the Hurd ? https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2026-04/msg00076.html
<nexussfan>"IOV_MAX" uh oh, *_max stuff
<gnucode>what's IOV_MAX ?
<diegonc>gnucode: a max limit on scatter/gather IO stuff. https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/readv.2.html
<diegonc>sorry nexussfan, I took over the task from you :)
<jab>well I think I need to buy another Thinkpad to see if I can get the Hurd running on it.
<jab>Which model should I buy next ?
<jab>also does the Hurd support M.2 SSDs ? I'm guessing no...
<jab>I might shoot for a T430.
<gnucode`>well I wrote some emacs code to auto insert a copyright year when I edit the wiki.
<gnucode>it took me longer than I care to admit.
<gnucode>and it still has bugs. :)
<gnucode>this page has a lot of cool ideas: http://hurd.ion.nu/hurd/translator/wishlist.html
<gnucode>sam_: have you thought about installing guix on gentoo hurd ?
<gnucode>I'm wanting to try it out for Debian Hurd.
