lw, ping

@releng3.nyi.freebsd.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/GENERIC amd64

sorry about that, pasting error

y'know as far as pasting errors go that was pretty innocenet

innocent

kevans: yeah, thankfully.. i am excited.. i got current working in a bhyve, thanks to the help here

found out bvcp < vm-bhyve

but i have too many tmux sessions open

jbo: unless you have another suggestion i'm probably going to resubmit the patch with the suggested IGNORE for python <3.10, and you'll just have to testport it as @py310 i guess (i'll check that works, obviously)

it's kind of disappointing that USES=python:3.10+ doesn't make this magically work, but perhaps that's deliberate so people don't end up with multiple copies of every library unless they explicitly ask for it with the py310 flavour

voy4g3r2: you mean you think bvcp seems better?

rtprio: no, the vm-bhyve package was much easier to get operational. the bvcp setup, i could not get the "bridging" to work with the vm's to the host.

how do you delete a folder which is named '-p' ?

(something went wrong, clearly)

rm -- -p

?

it is a directory

well rmdir -- -p

thanks

so -- disables interpretation of - as parameter?

-- causes argument parsing to stop, so everything after it is interpreted as argument, not option

er, option passing to stop, i mean

ok thanks

or rm ./-p

dch: do you have any article available on how your tailwind build is setup?

escapting and tab completion still seems safer.

o_O

Escaping

CrtxReavr: you can't escape options like that (if you mean something like 'rmdir \-p'?)

Sure you can.

'course. . . in ~33 years of using UNIX, I can probabaly count the time I've used rmdir on one hand. . . rm -rf, yo!

you actually can't do that

no you can't: le-fay.org/tmp/30d/q0feLn.txt

heh, i just had the same thought the other (re: rmdir vs rm -rf)

day

CrtxReavr: \- doesn't do anything here because the option is being parsed by the command (rm/rmdir), not the shell, so adding \ makes no difference, the command it passed '-p' as the argument either way

if the file was called '*', then \* would work...

(and it it was called '-*', you'd need both, rm -- -\*)

s/it it/if it/

otoh, if that's the only file with a leading hyphen... :-)

heh, true

(not that I'd advise someone asking a question like this to just take that risk, of course)

use Dolphin :-)

kevans: don't you put - at the start of all your filenames to confuse potential hackers though?

"damnit, why can't i exfiltrate this data, it keeps saying bad option!"

aha

Yeah. . . I guess filenames starting with - is a wonky corner case.

i'm actually surprised how often people ask how to delete a file beginning with -, i don't think i've ever created such file in my life

Escaping and tab completion does work in other case, as you alluded to.

i guess it could happen as a result of a shell script error

I like to mess with people by running 'dd if=/dev/urandom of=/lib/\*' on their systems.

It's not destructive by itself, but what they do to "fix" it certainly can be.

is it still the done thing to call time() once per iteration of your event loop, or is gettimeofday() fast enough now (with the vdso stuff) that this is not necessary?

drobban yes but it’s not possible to build more recent versions they fucked it up so badly

drobban this is it docs.skunkwerks.at/s/WvHJP8OB_ I have a more recent version somewhere

Title: Porting tailwind cli to FreeBSD - HedgeDoc

let me rummage around a bit more I got as far as 3.3.1 IIRC

aah yes git.sr.ht/~dch/tailwindcss-builder

Title: ~dch/tailwindcss-builder - helper script to build FreeBSD-based tailwind-css modules for Phoenix - sourcehut git

drobban: honestly it really turned me off tailwind in general, I loved the idea but I think I'm better off just getting some css skills

dch: =) well.. Wouldnt say its a skill issue question. =) for me its more about keeping a coherrent design and theme with sane naming.

dch: thanks for the links

drobban do you know any recent news about their rusty work? I am hoping it will include something like lightningcss.dev and we would just have it build natively and forget the pain and suffering

Title: Lightning CSS

that would be awesome. No havent heard any.

can the freebsd version of pf filter traffic based on the jail it's coming from?

(or going to?)

if it's sending spam and running wordpress, my guess is it's an insecure wordpress plugin

er, wrong channel
