 autra | matthewcroughan: hi! Nope, because of the convo above ;-) And I didn't take the time to test pentane ⭔ 's refacto yet | 19:36:11 |
 matthewcroughan | I should probably wait anyway | 19:36:26 |
| matthewcroughan | it's bad luck to completely change everything before going to an event | 19:36:34 |
 pentane ⭔ | I'm daily driving LOS 22.2 from my fork over at https://codeberg.org/cyclopentane/robotnix - the only reason for why it's not merged yet is that I'm still working on GrapheneOS support | 19:36:49 |
| matthewcroughan | oooohoooohoho you shouldn't have told me that.. | 19:37:04 |
| matthewcroughan | Now I'm going to do it | 19:37:08 |
| pentane ⭔ | ;) | 19:37:11 |
| pentane ⭔ | (there are still some issues with the handling of GrapheneOS vendor resource overlays related to the adevtool vendor blob extractor that was introduces a couple years ago, but I think I should be done by the end of this week) | 19:37:47 |
| matthewcroughan | pentane ⭔: curious, how do you view android, do you view it as life support for old devices, or do you actually like it? | 19:40:45 |
| matthewcroughan | I view robotnix and the like as a transition period for mobile linux.. it is important to be honest | 19:41:09 |
| pentane ⭔ | I wanna see it dead and replaced with mainline GNU/Linux | 19:41:14 |

I view robotnix and the like as a transition period for mobile linux.. it is important to be honest Yeah, same basically | 19:41:19 |
| pentane ⭔ | or until Google finally makes Android closed-source completely | 19:41:35 |
| matthewcroughan | Did you see https://xiaomitime.com/eu-kills-android-bootloader-unlock-starting-august-1-59449/ btw | 19:41:57 |
| matthewcroughan | Stuff is getting serious | 19:42:13 |
| matthewcroughan | You going to WHY2025 btw?\ | 19:42:16 |
| pentane ⭔ | Oof | 19:42:17 |
| matthewcroughan | * You going to WHY2025 btw? | 19:42:19 |

You going to WHY2025 btw?\ nope, didn't get a ticket :( | 19:42:33 |
| pentane ⭔ | I'm at MRMCD and WAMP though, would love to chat with people about AOSP and stuff | 19:43:09 |
| pentane ⭔ | oh and NixCon ofc | 19:43:25 |
| matthewcroughan | Ah, will see you there | 19:43:32 |
| matthewcroughan | maybe you can teach me something | 19:43:36 |
| pentane ⭔ | nice :) | 19:43:41 |
| matthewcroughan | I'm primarily interested in mobile linux though, and lack a lot of understanding on the android side | 19:43:51 |
| matthewcroughan | I'm best at the boot flow itself, but not android software | 19:43:57 |
| pentane ⭔ | In reply to @matthewcroughan:defenestrate.it
maybe you can teach me something oh, contrary to what it might seem like, I have no idea about AOSP either | 19:44:11 |
| pentane ⭔ | maybe we can dig up some good resources together ;) | 19:44:21 |
| matthewcroughan | the boot flow itself could be considered "android" though since ABL and all the stuff that gets you to executing a kernel is sadly android contaminated and controlled | 19:44:28 |
| pentane ⭔ | i mean, I don't really have any issues with that | 19:45:01 |
