<@TheWatcher>
No, the people who make the Foundation framework
11:12
< Vorntastic>
What'd they do?
11:18
<@TheWatcher>
6.4 uses flexbox by default, which is fine... as long as you don't have people using IE 10.
11:20
<&[R]>
Fuck people still using IE
11:20
<&[R]>
It supports /none/ of the new JS syntax stuff
11:20
<&[R]>
Let that shitpile die you assholes
11:20
<&[R]>
D:
11:21
<@TheWatcher>
Yep, totally.
11:21
<@TheWatcher>
Now, let me introduce you to a real office :/
11:21
<&[R]>
Yeah, I don't code for offices
11:25
<&[R]>
Also why even support IE after 6? This isn't the first time IE has been horrendiously stuck in the past.
11:27
<@TheWatcher>
One of these days, people will write a framework where I don't have to care about which browser people are using
11:28
<@TheWatcher>
ahahahaha, only joking -_-
11:28
<&[R]>
That'll only happen /after/ MS dies
11:28
<&[R]>
Since they're the ones who keep screwing that hope up
11:29
<&[R]>
Though jQuery meets your criteria
11:30
< Vorntastic>
At this point it's not even on Microsoft any more in a lot of ways. They can't go and get everyone on ie10 to upgrade
11:30
< Vorntastic>
They've tried that and get yelled at
11:31
<&[R]>
Fair, however they're the source of the problem.
11:35
<@TheWatcher>
Mind, I also need to deal with the fact that there's people out in the offices here who're using old versions of firefox and chrome, because they use the "managed" staff desktop, which only gets updated once every decieon or so.
11:36 * TheWatcher has that ; shot
11:37
<&[R]>
Like 3x-4x old?
11:44
< Vorntastic>
Like we yell at people who run old versions of any software with possible security issues and if there's any software with possible security issues it's browsers.
11:50
< Vorntastic>
(well, and antivirus)
12:00
< Vorntastic>
And then they go to work and it's all "IT is making us use a browser that's been out of support on our systems for two years" and...
12:10
<&[R]>
Having a /wierd/ network issue right now.
12:11
<&[R]>
Current setup is bunch of machines behind a firewall/NAT (OpenBSD) which goes into a cable modem.
12:11
<&[R]>
Currently I am IRC'ing over this very setup
12:11
<&[R]>
I can't connect to anything, I can't ping the firewall from inside, I can't SSH into the firewall, I can't ping out, I can't connect to websites...
12:12
<&[R]>
If I physically access the OpenBSD box's terminal, it works fine, I can log in, I can ping both internal and external hosts, I can SSH into internal hosts...
12:13
<&[R]>
I've power cycled the cable modem, just wondering if there's anything else I can do. (Worried that if I power cycle the OpenBSD box and that doesn't fix the issue then I'm going to have to hoop jump to get back onto IRC)

12:19
<&[R]>
Hmm...
12:22
< Vorntastic>
Well for me it sits there for quite a while
12:23
< Vorntastic>
Lasts a while, I don't know how long it waits but it's more than a minute

Yeah, looking at the logs reveals nothing out of the ordinary
12:26

Welp. Time to roll the dice, unless someone's got an idea of what I can poke/look at?

12:34

Yay worky

I can't even begin to guess why it'd just drop new TCP connections it didn't initiate

Linux Mint's version of GTK3 is hilariously out of date even on its rolling release, ANAICT
19:05
<&McMartin>
They're still on 3.18, and 3.22 has been the "final" release in that vein for many years.
19:06
<&McMartin>
(Also because GNOME, or possibly because semver, the final minor release deprecates common behavior in previous versions and introduces new behavior to replace it that is incompatible with all previous releases)
19:07
<&McMartin>
It's had 13 point releases to stabilize, guys

The most recent minor revision is the most recent version where code written to run on it won't run on earlier versions.
19:56
<&McMartin>
The most recent major revision is the version that removed all the things that were deprecated.
19:57
<&McMartin>
Writing to early minor revisions works, mostly, but with a bunch of deprecation warnings if you compile it on anything released in the past three years.
19:57
<&ToxicFrog>
I read "new behavior to replace it that is incompatible with all previous releases" as "stuff written for 3.18 won't work on 3.22"
19:58
<&McMartin>
It's more "won't work in your desktop environment"
19:58
<&McMartin>
"And the calls that will work don't exist in 3.18"
19:58
<&McMartin>
You're usually at "works well enough for an open-source UI" which is, uh, a grimly low bar, or it just flat-out is a no-op.
19:59
<&McMartin>
One of these I know is a Wayland issue, the other I suspect is one.
20:00
<&McMartin>
And by "a Wayland issue" I mean "Wayland uses a different enough architecture for compositing that X11 abstractions do not describe it and you cannot meaningfully shoehorn one into the other"
20:00
<&McMartin>
And instead of exposing the differences, or providing a different abstraction that both can use, GTK3 just provided the X11-like interface and made all the functions be no-ops.
20:00
<&ToxicFrog>
u,
20:01
<&McMartin>
Note that the "provide a different abstraction that both can use" is a sufficiently light lift that SDL2 does it.
20:01
<&McMartin>
Though what they had to do to make it happen fills me with a sufficiently small amount of girlish delight that I am in no particular hurry to replicate it.
20:03
<&McMartin>
(The issue is cases where you have a VM or emulated system with a mouse in it. The X11 way to do this is to hide the mouse pointer, confine it to the target window, and every time it moves, warp it back to the center. The Wayland approach is to confine it to the window's drawing rectangle (pointer confinement works Differently in Wayland and is not bound to windows) and then pay attention only to relative
20:03
<&McMartin>
mouse motion events.)
20:04
<&McMartin>
(Wayland's permissions model only permits the mouse pointer to be warped by a window when that window has focus and the pointer is already inside it, and only to places within the window. *WHICH WOULD BE ENOUGH* but since it's not fully general enough for the GNOME team's API, it's just a no-op instead of half-assing it.)
20:05
<&McMartin>
It's also harder to get angry at Wayland for this case because its API is unmistakably the correct one for the problem at hand.

Vornicus: Sorry, what I meant was 'If your IT policy is too conservative to just the latest release of your chosen browser, that's fine; just pick one of the LTS releases and stick with it for 5 years, applying the security patches as they come out. But for the love of god don't just install a standard release and then never update it at all!'
