L1[01:49:30] <Amanda> I shall zzzmew, but first I shall %splash @Forecaster with mutable green potion

L2[01:49:31] <MichiBot> You fling a mutable green potion (New!) that splashes onto @Forecaster. @Forecaster turns into a salmon wolf until they have some bacon.

L3[01:49:49] <Amanda> Night girls

L5[05:16:50] <Forec​aster> What's with all the wolves michibot D:<

L10[08:13:12] <Forec​aster> %sip

L11[08:13:14] <MichiBot> You drink an ommitted lime potion (New!). Forecaster feels like one particular wasp has it out for them suddenly.

L12[09:20:42] <Forec​aster> %tonkout

L13[09:20:43] <MichiBot> Awesome! Forec​aster! You beat Va​ur's previous record of 13 hours, 19 minutes and 52 seconds (By 1 hour, 8 minutes and 34 seconds)! I hope you're happy!

L14[09:20:44] <MichiBot> Forec​aster has stolen the tonkout! Tonk has been reset! They gained 0.014 tonk points! plus 0.013 bonus points for consecutive hours! (Reduced to 50% because stealing) Current score: 2.08635. Position #1

L16[11:22:57] <Forec​aster> You can't say that!

L17[11:28:11] <Amanda> Watch me!

L20[11:39:32] <MichiBot> You fling a mutable orange potion (New!) that splashes onto @Forcaster. @Forcaster turns into a shark girl until they have a smelly pink potion.

L21[11:39:44] <Amanda> Bah

L22[11:40:09] <Amanda> Close enough, shark girl forecaster

L23[11:54:45] <Amanda> .. she makes beach forecasts for when there will be a good riptide to pull unsuspecting hoomans into their domain

L25[12:26:28] <Forec​aster> D:

L27[13:15:38] <Spider ​EveryOS> %tonk

L28[13:15:39] <MichiBot> Sard! Spider ​EveryOS! You beat Forec​aster's previous record of <0 (By 3 hours, 54 minutes and 56 seconds)! I hope you're happy!

L29[13:15:40] <MichiBot> Spider EveryOS's new record is 3 hours, 54 minutes and 56 seconds! Spider EveryOS also gained 0.00392 tonk points for stealing the tonk. Position #2. Need 0.0577882 more points to pass Forec​aster!

L30[14:05:23] <Amanda> Oh good, I'm catching up on renovate PRs!

L31[14:05:25] <Amanda> https://matrix.camnet.site/_matrix/media/v3/download/camnet.site/ZtaasAOikiXZCPMpMevzjZsN/image.png

L32[14:27:30] <Spider ​EveryOS> You have to unaccept a merged pull request

L38[15:38:54] <Forec​aster> Rude, after I bribed I mean motivated her to accept that pull request

L39[17:09:41] <Lili​rine> Isn't bribing I mean motivating people to accept pull requests just a job at the NSA with extra steps

L40[17:10:21] <Forec​aster> How did you know where I work I mean no.

L41[17:10:40] <Amanda> let's see how much my ansible roles fail under lxc

L42[17:11:28] <Lili​rine> Also, (assuming that is GH), github has some... *other* weird "bugs" https://discordembeds.pc-logix.com/live/1718212288643.png

L43[17:11:37] <Lili​rine> I say "bugs" because it's not *really* a bug - but it IS funny

L44[17:11:59] <Amanda> Nah, that screenshot's from Forgejo

L45[17:12:10] <Lili​rine> Ah, looks similar

L46[17:12:23] <Lili​rine> But yeah, according to Github I'm a time traveler now I guess

L47[17:12:42] <Amanda> Your clock is probabl yoff

L48[17:14:22] <Lili​rine> might be, I do live in the far reaches of the southern hemisphere as well so that probably doesn't help (GMT+12)

L49[17:14:45] <Lili​rine> My today is most of the world's yesterday

L50[17:15:10] <Lili​rine> except for Japan, Australia, and... some parts of Europe, probably

L52[17:16:40] <Lili​rine> Oh, while I'm here; what IRC clients do you guys use? I forgot to reinstall Konversation after reinstalling Arch on new boot drive and figure I might see what else there is

L53[17:16:58] <Amanda> I'm using a Matrix <-> IRC Bouncer

L54[17:17:07] <Amanda> ( Heisenbridge )

L55[17:17:57] <Amanda> Which is why when I send a screenshot it's url is matrix.camnet.site/...

L56[17:18:10] <Forec​aster> Chug chug chug!

L57[17:19:19] <Amanda> Seems to be stuck or taking awhile on an apt-update

L58[17:19:33] <Lili​rine> Also, speaking of new boot drive, I wonder why hdparm reports the speed as significantly less than what it was before I reinstalled to it

L59[17:19:34] <Amanda> I should probably set up apt-cache-ng on my LAN

L60[17:19:49] <Amanda> * for

L61[17:19:58] <Lili​rine> It *should* be ~5GB/s but it's, uh, not (and it *was*, before)

L62[17:20:18] <Amanda> Did you do a different partition system/enable FDE?

L63[17:20:19] <Lili​rine> I wonder if I could boot off of RAID 0, though. My other drives are part of one and *wow* it's fast

L64[17:20:23] <Lili​rine> Nope

L65[17:20:38] <Corded> > <Lili​rine> Oh, while I'm here; what IRC clients do you guys use? I for…

L66[17:20:38] <Mic​hiyo> HexChat

L67[17:21:03] <Lili​rine> Same partitioning layout and system (ext4/FAT32 ESP./GPT)

L68[17:21:11] <Lili​rine> and I don't use FDE

L69[17:22:46] <Lili​rine> I don't think there's much of a point, at least not for a desktop

L70[17:23:14] <Lili​rine> (besides, the machine itself would be worth *far* more than the data on it) https://discordembeds.pc-logix.com/live/1718212994138.png

L71[18:04:24] <Va​ur> %tonk

L72[18:04:26] <MichiBot> By my throth! Va​ur! You beat Spider ​EveryOS's previous record of 3 hours, 54 minutes and 56 seconds (By 53 minutes and 49 seconds)! I hope you're happy!

L73[18:04:27] <MichiBot> Vaur's new record is 4 hours, 48 minutes and 45 seconds! Vaur also gained 0.0036 (0.0009 x 4) tonk points for stealing the tonk. Position #3. Need 0.0906336 more points to pass Spider ​EveryOS!

L74[18:06:17] <Corded> > <Lili​rine> Oh, while I'm here; what IRC clients do you guys use? I for…

L75[18:06:17] <Liizzi​i-chan> Occasionally use Konversation/hexchat, though mostly i just use my self-hosted TheLounge instance

L76[18:06:32] <stephanj> Amanda: how can i make an insurance claim against your chaos invoking friends? they broke my server! despite trying to bribe you with scritchies!

L77[18:06:50] <stephanj> weechat connected to irssi as a bnc

L78[18:07:24] <stephanj> both running on my shell host

L79[18:07:52] <Lizzy> if i was more active on irc, i'd probably have written my own client by now so i could tailor it to what i want

L80[18:08:01] <Lizzy> but alas, i do not

L81[18:08:30] <stephanj> top10 things to burn out on: writing an irc client

L82[18:09:12] <Flamei​ngsoul> Hey, computer nerd

L83[18:09:17] <Flamei​ngsoul> Nerds*

L84[18:09:23] <Flamei​ngsoul> https://discordembeds.pc-logix.com/live/1718215762908.jpg

L85[18:09:26] <Flamei​ngsoul> Have some spaghetti

L86[18:09:52] <Lizzy> i double it and pass it on to the next person

L87[18:09:58] <Flamei​ngsoul> ~~courtesy of my IT room that I am now re-doing all of as per teachers request~~

L88[18:10:53] <stephanj> please a few strategic subtle cuts and then have your friends try to figure them out

L89[18:22:30] <Flamei​ngsoul> Haha

L90[18:23:30] <Flamei​ngsoul> No, I am having them deal with the spaghetti monster to wire up this

L91[18:23:32] <Flamei​ngsoul> https://discordembeds.pc-logix.com/live/1718216612192.jpg https://discordembeds.pc-logix.com/live/1718216612378.jpg

L92[18:23:55] <Flamei​ngsoul> I manage the server and code, they deal with power and lan

L93[18:26:50] <Flamei​ngsoul> ~~means I learn to deal with apache as my teacher is making us switch to linuc server from windows and I am the only person who has experience with linux~~

L94[18:41:36] <Amanda> stephanj: See @Nadja, but generally: no refunds

L95[18:42:44] <Amanda> I need to make a small shell script to scrape info from my ansible inventory/the IaC code backing it to query hosts so I can more easily mass-apply basic shit like restarting consul

L96[18:42:59] <Amanda> unless ansible has a way to do this

L97[18:43:13] <Amanda> in which case I just need to make a small shell script to invoke ansible for doing that

L98[18:43:17] <Amanda> whoops, getting kitnapped again

L99[19:02:34] <Amanda> Neat!

L100[19:02:46] <Amanda> https://matrix.camnet.site/_matrix/media/v3/download/camnet.site/YlbOynZzPEPPvNMZvyoYyXft/image.png

L101[19:03:20] <Forec​aster> or is it?!

L102[19:03:27] <Liizzi​i-chan> you can restart services through ansible

L103[19:04:44] <Liizzi​i-chan> https://paste.pc-logix.com/iqovaheray

L104[19:05:13] <Amanda> Yeah, I was meaning more from the commandline

L105[19:05:54] <Amanda> Though I should probably make my ansible role for consul restart consul when the version is updated

L106[19:58:56] <stephanj> Amanda: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/command_guide/intro_adhoc.html

L107[20:16:35] <Re​nno> I think I've found a bug with the server rack. I have connected something to the left side, but the computer on the left side cannot access it. But when I change it to the right side, where there is nothing in the world, the computer can see the component

L108[20:17:27] <stephanj> Amanda: nonono! I would never try for a refund I like my human existence very much(atleast enough not to try my chance with alternatives)! i kinda just wanted to air my grievances!

L109[20:19:51] <Corded> > <Re​nno> I think I've found a bug with the server rack. I have conne…

L110[20:19:51] <Forec​aster> Left and right is from the facing of the rack, not yours when standing opposite it

L111[20:20:13] <stephanj> (the server shot itself once when i wrote the initial message a couple weeks ago on a thursday, then had random memory errors logged in dmesg and just after i wrote Hetzner support, they suggested a multi hour outtage or a hardware swap + taking over the disks into the new server, it died again. as KVM is useless on these boxes when its not connected at boot(no image) - no debugging possibility

L112[20:20:19] <stephanj> nothing logged, next step would have been network crash logging... but it died again and i choose the swap option, so now i got error free stuffs!)

L113[20:23:53] <Amanda> I wonder if there's a way to tell apt not to auto-start postgres when it's installed

L114[20:24:24] <Amanda> I just spent like a computer-hour fighting patroni wondering why it was failing fast with a db id mismatch

L115[20:26:00] <Amanda> I'm prototyping moving my patroni cluster from vms to lxc containers

L116[20:26:23] <Amanda> Let's see if anything ignites if I failover to the lxc patroni!

L117[20:27:09] <Amanda> oh good, it's smart enough to stop me from foot-gunning via trying to failover to a node still being provisioned

L118[20:30:12] <Amanda> stephanj: oh nice re: ansible ad-hoc

L119[20:31:31] <stephanj> Amanda: https://jpetazzo.github.io/2013/10/06/policy-rc-d-do-not-start-services-automatically/ & https://major.io/p/preventing-ubuntu-16-04-starting-daemons-package-installed/

L120[20:32:25] <stephanj> also evil hack: systemctl mask <packagename> before install will block starting of a package but might cause a postinstall script to barf

L121[20:37:18] <Corded> > <Forec​aster> Left and right is from the facing of the rack, not yours wh…

L122[20:37:18] <Re​nno> mmmmmmmmm fair enough

L123[20:55:15] <CompanionCube> Izzy: Skye: https://ahti.space/~samis/mute-close.jpg https://ahti.space/~samis/mute_scene.jpg

L124[20:55:54] <Amanda> stephanj: will mask work for services not yet installed?

L125[20:56:03] <stephanj> jup

L126[20:56:14] <stephanj> look at the second half of the second post

L127[20:56:16] <Amanda> Oh that'd probably be better then, since I'm disabling it anyway so patroni can manage it

L128[20:56:37] <stephanj> systemd mask is essentially ln -s /dev/null /etc/systemd/systemd/...

L129[20:57:04] <CompanionCube> got it a few days ago, but i selected the best ones and screwed around with a photo editor but did nothing (first upload was upside down because oops didn't keep that exif tag, lol)

L130[20:57:39] <Amanda> oh bah

L131[20:57:51] <Amanda> I guess the lxc container contains different locale shit than the VM I've been using

L132[20:58:04] <Amanda> Jun 12 20:57:18 bai-hu-lxc-a patroni[7651]: 2024-06-12 16:57:18.069 EDT [7651] patroni_su@postgres FATAL: database locale is incompatible with operating system

L133[20:58:06] <Amanda> ... long message truncated: https://matrix.camnet.site/_matrix/media/v3/download/camnet.site/liPyeUPbBMtJnSgmEmEgNklZ (3 lines)

L134[20:58:49] <Amanda> how tf do I install the locale

L135[20:59:15] <CompanionCube> brightness in the second one kinda sucks, but it's the best angle and the others like that aren't better. Also using the 400 is a bonus given its hostname, it's actually rendering the image directly onto the framebuffer

L136[21:00:35] <stephanj> Amanda: localegen? debconf-set-selection+the right incantion as input(ansible can do it too!) + dpkg-reconfigure locales with dpkg frontend set to non-interactive

L137[21:06:19] <Amanda> stephanj: danke, found https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/community/general/locale_gen_module.html with relevent terms

L138[21:08:58] <Forec​aster> I only want irrelevant terms

L139[21:11:13] <Amanda> Time to YOLO a failover to the new LXC node

L140[21:11:55] <Forec​aster> but the node is immortal

L141[21:14:42] <Izzy> CompanionCube: cooooool

L142[21:20:54] <CompanionCube> Izzy: *Mute Security Systems, briefly protecting a different mgunghwa :p

L143[21:23:47] <CompanionCube> (the one with my desktop is too boring to post because she doesn't fit on the top which would be cool)

L147[23:30:33] <Amanda> So, you may have guessed, it didn't work

L148[23:30:46] <Amanda> not because of lxc or anything, but because consul is having a fucking stoke in the latest version:

L149[23:30:51] <Amanda> https://matrix.camnet.site/_matrix/media/v3/download/camnet.site/hoySCvIrJNZtSiCZrmXrDRGn/image.png

L150[23:30:55] <Amanda> All four nodes are _not_ tagged as the primary

L151[23:31:12] <Amanda> took me until like 15m ago to figure that out

L152[23:57:18] <Spider ​EveryOS> %tonk

L153[23:57:18] <MichiBot> Darn! Spider ​EveryOS! You beat Va​ur's previous record of 4 hours, 48 minutes and 45 seconds (By 1 hour, 4 minutes and 7 seconds)! I hope you're happy!

L154[23:57:19] <MichiBot> Spider EveryOS's new record is 5 hours, 52 minutes and 53 seconds! Spider EveryOS also gained 0.00535 (0.00107 x 5) tonk points for stealing the tonk. Position #2. Need 0.0524382 more points to pass Forec​aster!

L155[23:57:47] <Spider ​EveryOS> %sip

L156[23:57:47] <MichiBot> You drink a hot red potion (New!). Spider EveryOS recovers some mana.
