Fucking finally. Maybe we can have an operating system without a political affiliation and deliberate back doors.

Year of the Linux Desktop amirite ololol.

I did do it myself but the point is I shouldn't have to.

I didn't write new backend, that's for masochists. Instead I wrote some loopback glue that makes things appear normal to all interested parties while pushing buffer contents around. It's fragile, but less fragile than running four fucking sound servers when we should only have one. As a bonus, the extra latency is minimal.

Capture still doesn't work well, but at least it works for some sources vs the non-solution in >>39 which turns off all non Jack sources.

I'm not a low iq nigger so I write my own personal sound server in an afternoon (for my own os) and blow away the competition including apple.
Vinyl is better anyways.

That's some nice shitposting, would you please step inside the gas chamber?

Why do you believe that you can have a flexible sound server that will handle all situations? Jack is a special purpose sound server while PA+ALSA are general purpose sound servers.

Because it's possible.

Why do you think I should have two sound servers you describe as general purpose?

FYI, Jack and ALSA are more similar than you think. Most of Jack's functionality is a wrapper over ALSA functionality, including the low-latency stuff.

IQ is not a measure of intelligence.

Having a two-digit IQ is an undeniable way of telling when someone is a nigger, though.

Africans are not Americans, you idiot. These are two different continents.

I'm downloading Gentoo right now. Damn, it's so small, only about 200 MiB for the bootable and another 200 MiB for the install image. That's nothing compared to the 4.5 GiB bloatware that I had to download for Debian and Arch.

What are you on about? Debian base systems are usually about ~180MB.

I used their "jigdo" shit and it was 4.5 GiB.

Uh huh, try not doing that. All you have to do if you want a small image is: download the small image.

If they're supposed to be a small distribution, they shouldn't have a misleading large version. How is anyone supposed to know they have a choice about that?

But why do they present that shit as the best way to download?

The "jigdo" scheme allows you to pick the fastest out of 300 Debian mirrors worldwide for your download. It features easy mirror selection and "upgrading" of older images to the latest release. Also, it is the only way to download Debian DVD images for all architectures.

It's not. It's supposed to be about as big as you want it, like Gentoo. You just asked for a big gulp and complained about how you can't finish it.

A big gulp of what? Human cum?

Sure, why not.
