Time to react!!

Why not take a standard format iso8601 which has same features and has built-in functions to work with?
I use the "basic format" of iso8601

hbelusca Z[J]=∫𝒟𝜑 exp(ⅈS[𝜑,J]/ℏ): Chungy Nexen: Does it work on Wine? (re. the internet explorer installation)
Chungy
Chungy
It did require a 32-bit-only prefix. I dunno if a 64-bit installer even exists (though XP and 2003 include a 64-bit version of IE6)

hbelusca Z[J]=∫𝒟𝜑 exp(ⅈS[𝜑,J]/ℏ): ouiiiiiiiin !!! 😭 Why does it "work" on Wine but not on ReactOS??!! 😭😭
Chungy
ReactOS isn't Wine :P
Anas
Pfft virgin wine
Chungy
in general Wine has a far higher compatibility rate than ReactOS anyway... it shouldn't be all that surprising
Anas
ReactOS is the real thing
Anas
Chungy
and a lot more complete support for NT 6.0+ ABIs
Anas
The steam deck is going to make wine even better
Tobiyo
Tobiyo
You already said that
Anas
Yea
Anas
Because Linux is more popular than ReactOS
Chungy
Why is that anyway?
Wine's a lot more complete and has the hardware support from the base OS (whether that's Linux, or *BSD, or illumos.... )
Chungy
Probably most of the development goes toward getting games to work, but there's other aspects constantly being worked on too
Tobiyo
Chungy
Wine left beta in.... ~2005? it's pretty mature software.
Tobiyo
Probably most of the development goes toward getting games to work, but there's other aspects constantly being worked on too
Yeah the focus on games is pretty noticeable atm
Chungy
There aren't many other Windows programs that are considered "must have" these days. Almost anything else has native ports anyway. :P
Tobiyo
I dunno autodesk software and adobe software seem to be fairly stubborn
Anas
Well, windows also has the most drivers I think
Anas
So ReactOS will have better hardware support than Linux
Anas
Hehehehe
Tobiyo
Have you seen the install instructions for autodesk maya
Tobiyo
My goodness :V
Anas
Is it not true that all windows drivers would just work on ReactOS?
Tobiyo
No, Is it big?

Tobiyo
This is just horrendous :V
Chungy
Hypothetically they will, assuming ReactOS has a perfect kernel implementation. And the drivers are made for the right kernel ABI that ReactOS implements (presently 5.2)
Anas
14 steps? Mein gott
Chungy
There was a time that hardware support would have been an appeal but those days have long gone.

won't it just work in wine?)
Chungy
that's almost as bad as MS's instructions for installing SQL Server on Linux
Tobiyo
Somebody gotta bonk autodesk on the head for this
Tobiyo
that's almost as bad as MS's instructions for installing SQL Server on Linux
It can't be worse than this.......can it?
Chungy
won't it just work in wine?)
https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=1489
Chungy
Probably not, but all those tests are for old versions of both Maya and Wine
Chungy
It can't be worse than this.......can it?
There's a lot of worse instructions than what you posted. Some people/companies just don't want to bother with packaging
Chungy
"Garbage" classification might still allow a main window to display, but if you can't use it, it's garbage
Tobiyo
Chungy
It can't be worse than this.......can it?

Tobiyo
Honestly they should just snap it 😏
Chungy
Yeah probably
Chungy
same for autodesk
Tobiyo
That.....isn't as bad as autodesk
Tobiyo
That's a simple thirdparty repository setup
Chungy
SQL Server and Exchange both take a bit of an interesting approach though, mainly because SQL Server and Exchange mostly didn't get ported.
Tobiyo
The rest is configs
Chungy
Microsoft instead ported the base Windows libraries and basically made their own Wine, but with the real Windows code
Chungy
main benefit is that you can use all the DLL plugins from the Windows version without change
Tobiyo
Autodesk takes 8 steps before you even get to installing the actual package
Tobiyo
Chungy
They should think about either a Snap or an AppImage. both would solve a lot of problems
Tobiyo
Interesting
Tobiyo
Tobiyo
Appimages are more for portable apps tho
Chungy
and?
Chungy
they'd solve a lot of install problems
Chungy
"Download and run this single file"
Tobiyo
I don't think autodesk and friends want it to be portable
Mark
I think this chat can better be renamed to 'lunix fanbois'
Mark
There is more talk about that and wine....
Tobiyo
wine has some cross pollination with reactos fwiw :3
