Re: [Trisquel-users] Is anyone else getting a CPU spikes when you edit anything in Gedit?
I do not understand why we cannot go back to the old Gnome. The code did not disappear. Anything connected to systemd and their way of building software is dead to me. It is bloated and just wastes and wastes and wastes. It is all about NIH syndrome. They should be game devs, not system devs. More features in a game are wanted and it is expected to take some resources. System code just needs to stay out of the way. We don't use computers except to use the programs and the apps. System code is the scaffolding on which that hangs. Linux pre-systemd pre-gnome-imposion was elegant. SysV is easy. I just installed a Upstart based distro (not even systemd) on an extra computer. SysV was easy to set up, remove programs from startup. With Upstart you must remove X bit from /etc/init.d/ script! so if you want to start it manually you cant. Trash. SysV is fine. Systemd is worse than Upstart. Various Phoronix readers have written in this weekend and commented in the forums and elsewhere that systemd developers forked the Linux kernel. This is not the case... Yes they forked LINUX the OS, indeed not the kernel, all of userspace!

consider that the only essential freedom when it comes to artistic data is the freedom to redistribute exact copies. Not being allowed to modify the content is not essential (as it is for software) because you do not achieve a work with non-functional data. Disagree. Code and are are the same. Atleast they feel the same to me when I'm working on either. Neither are science. Data can be in code or pulled from seperate file. No difference. More fun when you code it though because you then really know how to manipulate it.
Re: [Trisquel-users] New Updates: Opensource/Free FPS standalone mod of Xonotic (ChaosEsque) version 42 etc.
Release 53. As in traditional free software and opensource tradition: release early, release often. New weapons: Flanged Mace, Light Crossbow, Crude Bow, Composite Bow. Arrows, Crossbow bolts, and Balistta bolts can now be set alight: press R and F key concurrently when near a fire. (F and R is easiests on weapons, R then F for ballista works the best) Many weapons now have custom aimsettings for ; key (altaim (center)) so their ironsights are lined up.

Notes for coders: --- For those wishing the newest code updated at all times (should they arise): Get the ISO, then pull the git repo called xonotic-concrete. name it xonotic-data-bla.pk3dir and put it in XonoticDir/data/ so the path to latest qcsrc would be: XonoticDir/data/xonotic-data-bla.pk3dir/qcsrc/ and models would be XonoticDir/data/xonotic-data-bla.pk3dir/models/ textures would be XonoticDir/data/xonotic-data-bla.pk3dir/textures/ Then go in XonoticDir/data/xonotic-data-bla.pk3dir/qcsrc/ and do the command make (you will need the quakeC compiler: gmqcc) You can also put this in ~/.xonotic/data/ IE: ~/.xonotic/data/xonotic-data-bla.pk3dir/qcsrc/ etc. Then you can 'git pull' in (wherever)/data/xonotic-data-bla.pk3dir/ if you want newest gamecode. xonotic-concrete is the main gamecode git repo.

Some people are angry that an ISO is provided and demand something less monolitic (there are git repos if they'd look, but that isn't good enough, they want the ISO __gone__, and ISO is not acceptable).

Re: [Trisquel-users] New Updates: Opensource/Free FPS standalone mod of Xonotic (ChaosEsque) version 42 etc.
There is no focus other than to be like how life is somewhat. In life, now, we have access to everything from ancient medieval weapons to modern weapons. Same with planes, tanks, everything. The past doesn't disappear, it just gets ignored. Still with us are the castles and buildings of old, but we only build grey shacks now. There are 72 weapons now. Every so often work is given to an underprivileged section of the code, so that you feel you have full weapon sets for all parts (future, modern, medeval, etc), that nothing is just tacked on. This is done by adding, not subtracting. The aim of the project is to not restrict the player. Also for the builders to enjoy. Also to be a world a mapper can just start working on (hence the many texture packs and the editor included). To bring back the fun of Unreal and UT(99), which you could just put in your computer and start editing castles and towns and then fight in them. (linux binaries of the map editor are in bla/mapping/netradiant/somethinglinux.zip) (had to be compressed because running out of room on DVD) Thankyou for feed back, keep it coming :) A 2nd supplemental DVD is being pondered. That can house new (opensource) player models and contributed maps if anyone want's to add stuff. Only a few megs are left on 1st DVD so that has to be used for code and code-used-models.

Re: [Trisquel-users] is Virtualbox non-free software?
I see that Open Watcom is Open source http://www.openwatcom.org/index.php/Main_Page. But http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watcom_C/C%2B%2B_compiler#License_considerations ``` The GNU project considers the Open Watcom license nonfree because It requires you to publish the source code publicly whenever you “Deploy” the covered software, and “Deploy” is defined to include many kinds of private use.[8] ``` So Open Watcom is more open source then stated in this thread previously, but seems not enough. I stick for Windows and this does not have any really good open source virtualization with support of USB. I tried and donated to Wine and ReactOs, but these I still not good for me. I bad that VBox not goes open source way with donate button on their site.
Re: [Trisquel-users] New Updates: Opensource/Free FPS standalone mod of Xonotic (ChaosEsque) version 42 etc.
Maybe it is a waste of time to download as an iso, yet I prefer to download on my favorite and desired archive format. Sorry, But I refuse totally the game as an ISO. This is just my opinion. Yes I played the ver 8 and not your version.
Re: [Trisquel-users] New Updates: Opensource/Free FPS standalone mod of Xonotic (ChaosEsque) version 42 etc.
Don't fall in the trap of the trolls, the wise thing to do is just read the
negative feedback and think if they have a good point, if they have a good
point, act in consequence, if not, ignore them.
Let me synthesize it in another way:
read(NegativeFeedback)
if (TheyHaveAPoint(NegativeFeedback)){
ActInConsequence(NegativeFeedback);
} elseif (! TheyHaveAPoint(NegativeFeedback)){
TryNotToGetAngry(NegativeFeedback);
Ignore(NegativeFeedback);
Don't everyone thinks that your project is worthless, for instance, I've
read positive comments about it. If you feel bad you can try to reread the
positive ones to remember that there are people that likes your vision.
If some people thinks that providing only an iso is not enough, it should be
relatively easy to provide a tarball. But I have to add that calling
something worthless just because of that is stupid.
I personally think that the game is interesting and I love the level design,
specially the ones related to space :-)
Thank you for your game.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Is anyone else getting a CPU spikes when you edit anything in Gedit?
This is just one release of GNOME 3. The GNOME developers are not incompetent; these bugs in GNOME 3.10 and GNOME 3.8 are probably already fixed in the latest GNOME releases. We just aren't going to get the fixes in Trisquel 7 because of Canonical's (typically reasonable) policy of not upgrading most software within an Ubuntu release.[1] One thing I would like to see, mind, is GNOME having some sort of long-term releases that get just bugfixes and nothing else, so distros like Debian and Ubuntu LTS can use them. [1] Your post is actually an off-topic rant about systemd, I know. But I do think it's worth pointing out that a couple bugs isn't a good reason to regress to old, unmaintained versions of GNOME. (I wouldn't be opposed to MATE as the default Trisquel DE, mind, but I don't know if it suits Trisquel's accessibility requirements.)
Re: [Trisquel-users] bbc iplayer

The space ones were alot of fun to make. InterspaceStation is based on an earlier map I made for UnrealTournament(99) when I was starting to map. Spaceloop uses warpzones, if you look in the .map file in gtk or netradiant you'll see how they're all angled warpzones, this lets it loop around. This is similar to how the 2001 space odyssey map for Unreal(97) was made. making a tarball would be a bother. After every editing session a new DVD is burned. Making an ISO is simply not burning the DVD physically, it fits into what is done. A 4gb tarball wouldn't be any easier for anyone to download than an ISO, and windows users wouldn't know what to do with it. Everyone can atleast burn an ISO to DVD (as they do with all their pirated games) and access the files even if they don't know how to mount an iso. Thank you for your game. Thanks for liking it, you're one of the few. Mostly there are Justice Warriors trying to say everything made is crap (because they do not like who made it) and should be taken down (because they do not like what is said). Sometimes they have succeeded.
Re: [Trisquel-users] New Updates: Opensource/Free FPS standalone mod of Xonotic (ChaosEsque) version 42 etc.
Debian would never accept the game. They won't accept even a tiny text console casino game from a main contributor to this game because they do not like his opinions on social issues/politics. Debian is all about who you are, not what has been made. Meritocracy Show us the code etc is a lie. That is not what opensource is about. Opensource is just another ... progressive-only space. If you are not a progressive they delete your work from the hosts and ostracize you. If you are progressive in politics you don't have to code: you can just put packages together or just complain at people and you are lauded as an OpenSource hero. Or you can do both of those things (Like Lennart Poettering) and forcibly take over the entire operating system. Progressive+Massive amounts of needless code (he should have been a game dev) == The opensource rulers force a seachange. It is disgusting. Everything they claimed OSS was about was a lie.

A new argument has been made, Making the game ISO is dictatorship!: Submitted by MajorLunaC on Tue, 03/31/2015 - 15:55 Permalink Ok, so first of all, you're the one submitting the game to gaming sites. This implies you would like others to play the game and hear about it. You also mentioned that you want a high download count on SourceForge, I suppose to gain popularity. As a developer of games, you have to understand that you at least partially should appease some people for what they want, or in this case, what they NEED. I never said that I WANTED an alternative system to download the files, I said that I and others NEEDED other ways to download the files, because from a completely objective, logical, practical, programming, and distribution, distributing a completely digital online game that gets updated frequently SOLELY as an ISO, is simply unheard of, especially in the gaming world. It's impractical, non-functional, and causes problems for very many. If you ask any developer if ISOs are the way to distribute a digital game online, they will say NO WAY! Do you and your group even download the ISOs from the site to see if they download well and in a reasonable amount of time? We're not asking you to make our game, or to go out of your way to do anything special for us. We're saying that we are ALL having problems downloading your game, it's not working, so please help us get the game in another way that's easier for everyone, including you and your team, so that you don't have to keep making ISOs all the time. All I've heard so far is that you expect us to just listen to you, and anything we say is worthless and beneath you. There's a word for that, see if you can come up with it (political/government type). All I really NEED right now is another repository for the maps, since you said they're only in the ISO. Although I do see maps.pk3 in many of the repositories you listed , is that all the maps? Please at least make a repository for maps. I'm sure I can come up with a script to download everything needed for the game directly from the repositories. Maybe I'll even come up with a branch that distributes the game in a reasonable way. Response: There's a word for that, see if you can come up with it (political/government type). Many of the Team support Mr. Vladimir Putin, his ways and means. He is an inspiration. He revived the Church in Royssia and made the nation and the people value themselves again. repository for maps The maps rarely change. Use the ISO. We are up against a limit of a DVD. More maps would be made if not. Thoughts are to make an additional DVD for new characters and maps. repository (for updates) The git repo xonotic-concrete is what you want. It's struture is like: xonotic-concrete/models xonotic-concrete/textures xonotic-concrete/sounds What you do is you get this repo, but rename it xonotic-concrete-data.pk3dir you move that pk3dir to a data dir of xontic: XonoticChaos/data/xonotic-concrete-data.pk3dir So now it is: XonoticChaos/data/xonotic-concrete-data.pk3dir/sounds XonoticChaos/data/xonotic-concrete-data.pk3dir/sounds/models XonoticChaos/data/xonotic-concrete-data.pk3dir/sounds/qcsrc You can also put it in ~/.xonotic/data/ You then get the compiler gmqcc (it is on the iso btw, along with the rest of the source) you go into XonoticChaos/data/xonotic-concrete-data.pk3dir/sounds/qcsrc and make. Whenever you want to update code you git pull in xonotic-concrete-data.pk3dir Eventually, some months later, get an iso again if you suspect some maps have changed (usually small settings). Download difficulty This may be due to the host, some people it works, others it doesn't. Sometimes they take awhile to update the mirrors. They don't charge so we use them. They are good. ISO is hard It is nothing for us to make an ISO, We do this multiple times per day sometimes as we back up whatever progress we make in each coding session. ISOs are a matter of course, making the release ISO is just make iso but do not burn it to disc option. You have responsibility No, we benefit you as an ancillary happenstance. If you would like we could stop publishing updates. Would you like? Download count This is desired only to rub it in some persons' faces, at a later date. To spit on them as they have spit on us.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Is anyone else getting a CPU spikes when you edit anything in Gedit?
It doesn't have to; that's why Ubuntu and Debian don't pull new versions into their releases, the potential compatibility breakage is less important than the potential bugfixes. But if it's unmaintained for a really long time, you'll get some application breakage, and in the more short-term, you won't get any improvements, new features, etc. There's a reason Mint didn't just keep using GNOME 2 forever; it did so for a while, but at some point, you have to use something current. In any case, why would you even suggest using GNOME 2? It's been superseded just fine by MATE.

You know, you could just ship the base game in a tarball (compressed!), and ship any optional things (e.g. extra maps) separately. I mean, you do know that 4.4 GB takes hours to download on a DSL connection like mine, right?

Re: [Trisquel-users] Is anyone else getting a CPU spikes when you edit anything in Gedit?
in this time trisquel not use systemd But it will used in future versions in Unix system design, it is a generally understood principle that a big task not be handled by a big program, but rather a collection of small programs, each tackling one specific, well-defined component of the larger task. You often hear the phrase “do one thing, and do it well” as a guiding principle for writing a Unix program. One major reason for this is that a small program has fewer places for bugs to hide than a big program does. and another Unix system design principle is, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. For production systems you really want to leave well enough alone; and the sysvinit that comes with Linux is simple enough, well-understood enough, and stress-tested enough that you really don’t want to mess with it to get actual work done. yes systemd is Broken by design it is so terribly bloated whi all this crap, I want to keep my system as simple as possible it is like a religious mission trying to force it upon everybody. and systemd require rebooting unless the component being upgraded is the kernel This leads to gnu Linux becoming the laughing stock of Windows fans

You know, it's fine to not care if people play the game, but you're clearly going out of your way to announce the game on various places. Do you not see the contradiction? Hey guys, play my game! WTF? A 4.4 GB ISO? I'm not downloading that! Whatever, I don't care if you play it. It's even worse when you act offended by people complaining that what you've provided it too inconvenient to download. I don't know which is really true, but if you do care whether people play your game (as I would), you should take steps to make it as easy as possible for people to do so, and if you don't, you should stop acting so offended when people give you negative feedback.

My avatar is a cup of coffee. Do you really think that coffee and the trisquel community is related too because of my avatar?

Various users have pics of cats as their avatars. I assume it is their cats. I want to see more. This is related to trisquel users and community.

I don't want to do it, I'm not going to. It would be a bother to me and this is a game that is ment to be packaged with the maps. The whole reason of making the distribution in the beginning was to get around the censorship in Xonotic forums of the maps (every time a map was posted they deleted the post because they didn't like opinions of author, now ALL the maps I made (50+) are downloaded 7K times vs a handful of times for each map prior). Anyone that wants separate stuff can get it from the git repos. Once in awhile seperate pk3s are uploaded, but this is once in a great while. Honestly, most opensource communites are similar to repressive communist dictatorships. They'd jail anyone not progressive if they could, and have said so many times to me atleast. They also were sure to forward complaints about things that had been _said_ to european police agencies, hoping to have me jailed if I ever went to whatever feminist/leftists nanny state they reported to. What they can do now is ban and delete and that is what they do. It does not matter what you make, it matters what you believe. Be it Debian or Nexuiz / Xonotic, that's who those people are.

I've just updated my Belenos system and youtube-dl was in there. A test shows it now works with iPlayer. Generally I find youtube-dl works again when iPlayer has a small API change much sooner than the BBC written player on my set top box updates...
