emily | if you mean the expression | 10:00:08 |
emily | the QML I think should require almost no changes | 10:00:19 |
K900 | OK holy shit this is disgusting | 10:29:36 |
K900 | Has ANYONE and I mean ANYONE read this fucking code | 10:32:07 |
K900 | OK no I can't do this | 10:40:16 |
K900 | I might just sit down and rewrite the fucking thing | 10:40:35 |
K900 | I've looked at it for like 30 minutes and I am now confident we need to scrap it | 10:54:00 |
emily | the QML? | 10:55:47 |
emily | consider that everything beyond the QML is also messed up | 10:56:02 |
emily | I wouldn't spend time on an installer that can't even show progress | 10:56:15 |
K900 | No, everything | 10:56:48 |
K900 | The QML is the least bad part | 10:56:53 |
emily | well | 11:07:30 |
emily | fundamentally Calamares is a bad choice for NixOS | 11:07:39 |
K900 | Honestly | 11:07:45 |
K900 | No it's fucking no | 11:07:47 |
K900 | * No it's fucking not | 11:07:47 |
K900 | We're just holding it SO WRONG | 11:07:51 |
emily | no I've like | 11:08:00 |
emily | read the docs | 11:08:02 |
emily | its model is just not good at what we'd really want | 11:08:08 |
K900 | 90% of it is genuinely perfectly fine | 11:08:14 |
K900 | We just need to replace the other 10% with our own shit | 11:08:25 |
K900 | Which they make easy | 11:08:28 |
K900 | Unless I'm missing something big | 11:08:39 |
emily | it can't even do /boot that works properly with disk encryption across both BIOS and UEFI. | 11:08:50 |
emily | though that's not a super NixOS-y thing | 11:09:01 |
K900 | That's not possible on legacy boot | 11:09:03 |
K900 | So don't care | 11:09:09 |
emily | what? no | 11:09:10 |
