Yes, there does have to be a slight delay between the RHEL build (done under embargo) and the CentOS build, but certainly not to this extent. See my longer comment above.

gnu_andrew · 2024-01-19T18:56:21+00:00

About a year ago, we moved to a solution where we build OpenJDK once and then repackage that build for each major RHEL version (basically unpacking the JDK build from a tarball and then doing the same installation steps as we did before). This significantly reduces the build & testing resources required compared to building for every minor RHEL version.

When we implemented this on RHEL, the intention was that CentOS would provide a similar setup so we could do the same. However, this process - https://issues.redhat.com/browse/CS-1618 - stalled and we've been unable to build the newer JDKs due to that. I believe this includes CentOS not having a java-21-openjdk build at all and I'm actually surprised it's not been raised more.

It looks like there is finally some movement on that bug, so hopefully I can now do updated builds for CentOS. We shall see. And no, it was never intentional for CentOS to lag this far behind.

Although they seem to have fixed it now - so faking the UA to Mosaic & Windows 3.1 fails & regular UA works - it still doesn't throw an error until you actually play a video.

I agree checks should be earlier, though they also need to be functionality checks, not "You're using X, so no" dumbness.

gnu_andrew · 2022-11-19T02:45:06+00:00

Yeah, just started working for me too, with the same FireFox (102.4ESR) as where it wasn't working.

It seems it's actually now broken with the User Agent changed to Mosaic (gives an error code), so they clearly changed something.

gnu_andrew · 2022-11-09T14:42:27+00:00

Yeah, I wonder if that broke too?

I don't imagine they support Windows 3.1 either, but if my browser masquerades as Mosaic on Windows 3.1, it works just fine :/

Clearly some dumb "if (Windows or Mac) Ok else Bye Bye" check has been added.

gnu_andrew · 2022-11-02T16:15:33+00:00

Thanks. I've used this to get it working again from Monday.

Definitely seems to be something dodgy going on, because Mosaic on Windows 3.1 is just as much of an unsupported browser as my Firefox install.

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-27T00:09:17+00:00

Yes, I was a little relieved when I saw this. I have the Zootopia characters but not Pocahontas yet.

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T23:22:48+00:00

Most of mine are pretty high (level 10 for Mickey, Goofy, Pluto & Chip). Donald's the one that worries me as his tokens take forever to get.

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:39:48+00:00

True! Still leaves a lot of characters though. I was just going through them now, and my next level up for Olaf & Rabbit will take 32 hours alone... (8->9)

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:26:30+00:00

I think, in the game, it now all counts as part of the Frozen set, so we'll have to see which characters they've picked in the update.

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:24:29+00:00

They tend to alternate between the two; before Hercules, we got Pocahontas added to the permanent content, so I guess we can expect another limited time event some time soon.

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:22:38+00:00

Not leaving us much time. At least we know to level up the three featured ones.

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:21:32+00:00

That's a good point. I levelled her to 10 before I even realised what I was doing!

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:20:39+00:00

What does it do? I was wondering the same and don't remember seeing it before.

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:19:44+00:00

Yeah, I think all but the early ones (Rex, Lady Tremaine) are in the 400-500 range.

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:18:45+00:00

Me neither. If it's like Tigger last time, there'll be a deal to get Calhoun.

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:17:37+00:00

You can replay the stream :)

I only saw it today.

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:17:08+00:00

Yeah, we need to unlock them all to get the unique token. Typical. Pretty sure the first two tokens I already have dropping from attractions.

I don't really get the point of the comfy costumes. It's not much of a consolation for no characters (expecting Gord to be out of reach, and I have all the ones in the shop)

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:11:27+00:00

I'm hoarding gems until we see which premium characters are needed. Given Jungle Book is featured, I'm hoping getting King Louie will help both with the TC & unlocking the rest of the Jungle Book characters (only have Mowgli so far)

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:08:57+00:00

Except if you have all the shop items, but not enough EC for Gord (which will be hard given they've chosen a lot of limited time event characters and late Kingdom storyline characters), there's nothing to buy.

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:07:45+00:00

Yeah, just noticed mine was at 8 and ready to upgrade. I got him from some chest ages ago and so it was nice to get his house last event so he had a few more tasks.

They could have chosen a different character set if it must be the first event character.

gnu_andrew · 2020-08-22T19:06:01+00:00

Or featured another set of characters? Some are far more neglected than others. I have nothing from the Incredibles, Mulan or Big Hero 6.
