awesome~!

tomman
wow, so much junk just for a little feature
-
tomman
(what the hell is an "epic" in Gitlab parlance?)
-
tomman
in the meanwhile, Gitlab doesn't care, they're too busy with their IPO

fantomas
hmm, github page doesn't look 100% working in 2.53.9
-
tomman
fantomas: are you using JustOff's addon?
-
fantomas
no, should I?
-
fantomas
I have some addons...
-
tomman
you should
-
tomman
it "unbreaks" Github because of Google WebComponents
-
tomman
-
fantomas
oh, great to know. I remember a few times sites got unbroke by upgrading SM
-
tomman
you also need it for GitLab
-
tomman
their official position is basically "legacy browsers don't exist CLOSED WONTFIX USECHROME"
-
tomman
eventually once we get WebComponents and a few other JS Chromeisms™, we may not need the addon anymore
-
tomman
...but by then, I guess they should have deployed more Chromeisms™, leading us to a neverending vicious circle
-
fantomas
yes USECHROME is like USEMSIE some 10 years ago
-
tomman
but worse
-
tomman
at least IE did things differently, but didn't reinvented the wheel every 6 weeks
-
tomman
IE stagnated the web, but Chrome is pushing it to the cliff
-
fantomas
(why) isn't that extension available on addons.m.o?
-
tomman
beats me
-
tomman
but JustOff is to be trusted, thankfully
-
tomman
...wait
-
fantomas
hopefully.
-
tomman
IIRC AMO no longer serves XUL addons
-
tomman
we're supposed to use Thunderbird's addon site nowadays
-
tomman
-
fantomas
well, SM addons page got me there and I see some justoff's addons, but not this one
-
tomman
would be nice to file a "please upload there" issue on its Github bugtracker then
-
fantomas
-
fantomas
looks like python2 is still available in debian 11 so the compilation was successful
-
tomman
Didn't Debian finished their Python2ectomy with Bullseye?
-
tomman
I had a couple of cellphone/networking applications die with the latest release because of Python 2 removals
-
tomman
(wammu and wicd)
-
tomman
...but to be fair, those have been abandoned upstream years ago, and all efforts to port them to Python 3 stalled hard
-
fantomas
I was thinking so but then I noticed they added python-is-python2 package with some symlinks... that's why I was able to compile SM now
-
fantomas
mozilla-devscripts still depends on python2, and two more pkgs
-
frg_Away
Getting rid of python 2 is in the works. Just need a few 48h a day weeks for all the stuff :)
-
fantomas
great
-
mahdi[m]
wau thanks for
github.com/JustOff/github-wc-polyfill/releases our company gitlab broke like two three weeks ago in SM and it works again :) cheers
-
tomman
mahdi[m]: suggest your company to migrate away from GitLab then
-
tomman
this war is going to continue, sadly
-
mahdi[m]
well we moved from p4 and jenkins, I have to say gitlab is huuge step forward (CI and all stuff around)
-
frg_Away
Well even in Credge it is slow now. Ang thinple things like keeping the position in the commit list when you use the go back button are not working. But I am sure the CE emoticons are great :)
-
frg_Away
Make it simple things. Just a thinple typo
-
frg_Away
mahdi[m] In theory I agree but at the mercy of an unreliable third party is not my cup of trea. Previously you at least had release cycles. Now it is just mud and constant upgrades and deprecation.
-
tomman
Move And Break Things Fast™
-
tomman
the sure way to an IPO
-
njsg
tomman: I'd say it's not even "legacy browsers", it's "other browsers"
-
tomman
the problem is that any browser that isn't Chrome is considered to be a "legacy browser" because it doesn't support the latest Chromeisms™
-
tomman
I guess that in protest, we should match Safari capabilities rather than Chrome's
-
tomman
modern webdevs love their Apples but hate hate hate Safari because it's "borderline legacy"
-
tomman
and they only have to deal with it because you've got no choice on iOS
-
njsg
remember the days IE6 sometimes actually prevented this kind of stuff simply by existing?
-
tomman
ironic, indeed
-
frg_Away
tomman well they are all the same now. On a company level you might need to go with the flow but personally I make sure not the spend a penny on services like the one gitlab provides and also not depend on them. Does not make a dent in their revenue but I sleep better and there is always another service for free. I even pay for some like my email provider :)
