<b>aaron:</b> April: Cron and a fetch + copy script.

April: that'd require a backend server

April: the script I'm writing is js/html only

April: either generate it with JS, or find a public/official listing I can fetch from

April: :\

<b>aaron:</b> I'll be you there's already a JavaScript library to do just that.

<b>aaron:</b> *bet.

April: I've been looking, I can't find anything

April: the problem is that the list of leap seconds needs to be fetched from an official source

April: I'm guessing that to keep time the OS downloads it as well when syncing with the ntp server, so I'd imagine there's a way to calculate it just using the terminal

April: however, I don't know if there's a way to access that with JS. I think it's just limited to Date

aaron: Well, right now you're a slave to the base OS you're running on for that. I assume you're running this on top of NetBSD?

April: it'll be running on whoever's computer accesses the site

April: which may or may not be netbsd

<b>aaron:</b> So you're always going to be a slave to the various system time implementations.

April: yeah

April: unix time afaik is specified to not count up for leap years, so that's consistently behind

April: not really dependant on implementaiton

April: ugh, this whole project is starting to be a pain

April: I have a whole mess of stuff with pre-1970 dates as well

aaron: Look inside your timezone files?

April: ?

<b>aaron:</b> They're installed somewhere under root. Maybe "apropos timezone" will turn them up?

April: I'm not sure how that'd help

<b>aaron:</b> That may have the list of leap second/leap year adjustments.

April: can I get that from javascript?

<b>aaron:</b> Well, you said website, so just serve the file from your server.

April: no backend

April: has to be pure JS

aaron: Can JavaScript make filesystem calls?

April: I can easily include a list alongside the js, or even just hardcode in the 27 days

April: but then it's stuck not updating

April: if unix time wasn't absolutely retarded, this wouldn't be difficult

aaron: (You said something about CORS, I have no clue about the download policies though when running local.)

April: cors prevents fetching from certain sites through js

April: namely: literally anywhere I can find an official list of leap seconds

aaron: Wikipedia?

April: timeanddate.com has a php script that shows the TAI time. However, it's blocked by cors

April: I don't think I can use jquery to fetch from wikipedia...

<b>aaron:</b> I'll bet someone has a hobby site with all proposed leap seconds out to 3.000.

aaron: https://www.ietf.org/timezones/data/leap-seconds.list

<b>aaron:</b> Everyone seems to use the IERS bulletin as authoritative.

<b>April:</b> Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leap_second. (Reason: CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ missing).

April: wikipedia didn't work

April: ietf.org blocks with cors

<b>aaron:</b> You may need an actual JavaScript help channel here, or to just mirror that file on github or something.

April: yeah I'll have to go to a JS channel

April: I just meant to ask about unix timestamps here

Alright errors... any help is greatly appreciated on this for mounting the usb JBOD.

anyways, any help would be appreciated

@W3bfly on FreeBSD?

@W3bfly on FreeBSD?

Correct... Freebsd 10.3

Tried everything from here ? https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/usb-disks.html

Yes. Even from man pages of ntfs-3g and googling... It's gotta be something simple. The mundane details Peter

<b>Horia:</b> April: try response header "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" value '"*" env=IS_CORS'

Yes. Even from man pages of ntfs-3g and googling... It's gotta be something simple. The mundane details Peter

Keeping FAT USB works easily though :P

So not sure what I'm missing to get the OS to mount them

Someone on #FreeBSD on Freenode will definitely know ... have you tried on 11.xx versions?

Or check if any modules from GhostBSD can auto mount

Or check if any modules from GhostBSD can auto mount

Trying to see if it can be done in freebsd. Any ideas going to be banging my head a keyboard.

April: Horia: response header?

April: I thought response headers were done on the server side

<b>aaron:</b> W3b Fly (Telegram): The big FreeBSD channels are on efnet. But someone who actually uses NTFS can probably answer.

more then likely true, but didn't hurt to at least ask ;P

Guys

Works fine blender on freebsd?

Cause some of X apps sucks on openbsd

But supposed freebsd has focus on desktop

I'll try

<b>aaron:</b> W3b Fly (Telegram): I meant vs the freenode channel.

Horia: April: for your CORS problem, ie. wikipedia, maybe I misunderstood

Horia: April: if you control the server...

April: I do not have access to any server

Horia: How do you load the script?

Horia: U can change headers in browser, also

April: it should just be the equivalent of loading the .html file in your browser with no modification

<b>April:</b> though there is a wrapper outside of my control that I can't touch

April: but I can escape the frame if needed

April: no server stuff

Horia: You use file://my.html I guess

Works fine blender on freebsd?

Haven't used blender for heavy work on BSDs but it should work

April: more or less, yeah, Horia

Follpvosten: Is anyone using FreeBSD on a TP X230 with UEFI boot? (Yes, that is very specific)

Out of 17 people here... High estimate is no... What's going on?

<b>Follpvosten:</b> Nothing too important, i'm trying to dual-boot FreeBSD and Linux on my X230 and sadly chose to boot using EFI when i first installed the latter, which should not be a problem in theory; but the boot process of the FreeBSD install media hangs at a very early point when i try booting via UEFI

<b>Follpvosten:</b> Since i'm running a rather old BIOS/UEFI version, i'm wondering if an update to that could fix the issue
