<&McMartin>
Oh wow, I got an actual kernel crash of some kind from Win10.
04:44 * McMartin pulls out the memory dump to see what actually broke.
05:03
<&McMartin>
... NTFS.sys. That's not so great.
05:04
<&[R]>
D:
05:05
<&[R]>
Possibly corrupt hard-drive?
05:05
<&[R]>
There is that one exploit that's been disclosed
05:05
<&McMartin>
Possibly, but it looks like the flush-volume operation wound up with a garbage memory value
05:05
<&McMartin>
What's this? Is there a CVE?
05:06
<&[R]>
I'll see, I had read about it on my phone, so I'll have to google the stuff
05:07
<&[R]>
https://www.infosecurity-magazine.com/news/usb-in-locked-pc-triggers-denial/
05:08
<&[R]>
"Reported to Microsoft on July 2017, they did not want to assign CVE for it nor even to write me when they fixed it."
05:08 * McMartin found https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-0822
05:08
<&[R]>
https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/linux/its-2018-and-you-can-still-p0wn-your-linux-box-by-plugging-in-a-usb-stick/ <-- similar issue with Linux D:
05:09
<&McMartin>
I did repair a corrupted USB stick but it was FAT32, not NTFS.
05:09
<&[R]>
That one's different
05:09
<&McMartin>
That Linux one is much more embarassing D:
05:10
<&McMartin>
But yeah, that still could have possible put the system into a weird state on its filter chain or something. :shrug:
05:10
<&[R]>
Yeah, command execution is pretty bad.
05:10
<&McMartin>
Command execution based on *dollar signs in the volume name* is just facedesky
05:10
<&[R]>
But hey, Windows had that as a feature for how long?
05:10
<&McMartin>
Not that one :)
05:10
< Mahal>
1803 on win10 did some stuff with TPM
05:10
< Mahal>
??
05:10
<&McMartin>
I don't have 1803 yet

22:26
<&[R]>
I like a well done man page

Honestly I got less problems with arch than with my current windows install
22:29
< Degi>
Meh the lower part of that is not so good tho
22:29
<&[R]>
To be fair, Arch during the Judd years was amazing
22:29
<&[R]>
Unfortunately that doesn't exist at all anymore
22:31
< Degi>
What was there
22:31
<&[R]>
It was fairly stable
22:31
<&[R]>
I didn't have any breaking issues until Judd left
22:31
<&[R]>
I ran it for 2 years while he was maintaining it
22:32
<&[R]>
I really liked the bit where I never needed to install a -dev package, because Arch didn't split shit.
22:33
<&[R]>
That was one of the frequent frustrations I had when running Ubuntu. If there was a means to just automatically install the -dev package for everything I installed, I'd probably never have left Ubuntu.
22:33
<&McMartin>
That's an issue for all Debianoids, ime
22:33
<&McMartin>
As well as, uh, Fedoroids?
22:33
<&[R]>
Yeah, and Red Hat systems
22:34
<&[R]>
And then there's Void.
22:34
< Degi>
What are you running now?
22:34
<&[R]>
I'm actually running Arch technically, just with my own repo to remove upstream's brain-dead-ness.
22:35
<&[R]>
I tried Slackware, Void, CRUX, Gentoo and Frugalware for a bit.
22:35
<&[R]>
Anyways, Void takes the "let's split packages" to the extreme. Every .so file is its own package.
22:36
< Degi>
I tried to install i3-gaps on debian, failed and then went back to windows on my PC... On my laptop I got that working with Arch (because it had precompiled binaries)
22:37
<&McMartin>
"i3-gaps"?
22:38
< Degi>
It is like i3 WM but there is gaps between the windows
22:38
<&McMartin>
Aha, OK
22:38
<&McMartin>
I had this strange vision of "firmware patches to make Linux stuff work on Core i3 systems because otherwise it won't because ??mystery??"
22:39
< Degi>
Also debian didn't work well with the nouveau driver on my PC, maybe because I was too lazy to configure it...
22:39
<&[R]>
Slackware was really lacking for packages, and their package system seemed to be very incomplete. Void's package splitting was a deal-breaker for me. CRUX uses a ports system for packages, which isn't great, but it wasn't horrible. I actually liked CRUX the most out of the other systems. Frugalware was interesting, if you liked pacman, but want something that isn't Arch, check them out.
22:39
<&McMartin>
[R]: I can respect Void's ambition.
22:39
<&McMartin>
I think they're *wrong*
22:39
<&McMartin>
But if you have two binaries that only either work if they're both there, shouldn't they be *one* binary?~
22:40
<&McMartin>
pacman I must admit has not endeared itself to me
22:40
<&McMartin>
I prefer to spell "-Syuu" "upgrade".
22:40
<&[R]>
pacman is honestly one of the reasons I really liked Arch.
22:42
<&[R]>
Void's package management is fairly similar (in that the switches are similar for the most part) but also very, very alien if you've used pacman.
22:43
<&McMartin>
I've always been able to find my way around Fedora's repos best
22:43
<&[R]>
xbps-upgrade -S thingy # downloads the package manifest (-S) and installs the package "thingy"
22:43
<&McMartin>
I'm not sure why that is; it may simply be that they are smaller overall and thus the naming scheme is more enforcibly consistent
22:44
<&[R]>
Arch's package guidelines for package naming is "upstream is king. Only rename a package if you have no other choice"
22:46
<&McMartin>
That doesn't help when you're the tip.
22:47
<&McMartin>
Or the, uh, spring?
22:47
<&McMartin>
So you've got libSDL2 and libSDL12 which is incompatible but defines many of the same symbols and then is it libSDL_image12 because its's SDL_image 1.2 or libSDL12_image because "SDL 1.2" is the name of the product and etc etc etc etc
22:48
<&McMartin>
And I swear Debian's individual package maintainers all throw darts even within a suite of related libraries
22:49
<&[R]>
Ughhh, the package maintainer for Debian's AIDE package needs to be beaten with a clue-by-four
22:49
<&[R]>
Not sure if it's still an issue, but it pissed me off when I had to maintain Ubuntu servers.
22:50
<&[R]>
Also whoever thought it was a good idea for postfix's install script to launch an interactive prompt.
