the plan is to bump the required Java version at some point and use so many of the features people can't just compile with Java 8 again kappapride

#

ours is a hogepoge of garbage that just happens to work because we sacrifice virgins to it frequently

fortunately in minecraft we have ample supply

vernal moth
#

Well, once you get 1 to 2 and 2 to 3, you also get n to n+1

#

I wonder if new versions could be data driven in via

blissful wing
#

that would necessitate more code-as-data than we currently have

#

e.g. functionality would need to be in data, too

vernal moth
#

Like, extracting the current protocol definition is already possible

blissful wing
#

not just packet structures

mossy vessel
vernal moth
#

I never looked at via to be able to know how much is actually manually handled

blissful wing
#

I imagine it's a lot of pipelining

quasi valley
blissful wing
#

but still a human has to understand what the intent is behind "we received packet updateinventorysomething"

#

to build that pipeline

#

you could automate some of the menial stuff

#

"data type changed from int to long"

#

etc

#

but I don't think you'd ever get to a point where it "just works" automagically

#

unless it's a patch with a bugfix with barely any protocol changes

We all vaccinated so it was easy

Now drive through two countries, one of them being the one you're already in, to reach Croatia.

If you haven't a problem with non-existent highways.

#

Why do so many people drive to croatia

vale rune
#

Because an ocean doesn't divide us from it.

ill be honest i don't even know where croatia is

is it in the EU?

Don't think I've seen sand beaches in Croatia

We got a madlad bus driver who drove all the way here

THAT is even more cursed

(no bus, just car, but he's still the bus driver)

course

vernal moth

Well, we took small breaks and stuff but yeah

blissful wing
#

not as long of a drive, but as mad of a trip

vernal moth
#

We also all didn't sleep the day prior and drove thru the night to avoid traffic

blissful wing
#

rented a 16-seater van to get everyone from LAX to anaheim

#

and a big SUV for all the luggage

#

top memes

#

almost died like twice

#

i was the driver

#

Sand beaches are nicer, but the Croatian sea is much better than in the Netherlands imo

vernal moth
#

Oh don't get me started on the car situation, we planned to take my parents focus, cause it's a big car, but my sister drove to baveria and came back with broken servo pump, and the service center fixed it, but it leaked, and they didn't manage to fix the leak in 5 days

#

I haven't been to Croatia more than 2 times or so, but a looot of people I know go there each year/holliday

#

So we had to ask one of our grandparents to steal their car, I had to drive using a hybrid car now 🤮

#

But hybrids aren't as bad as I thought

mossy vessel
#

As long as they drive panda_shrug

vernal moth
#

Croatia is a beautiful country so I wouldn't mind going here each year, could get boring after a while tho

mossy vessel
#

And don't lose a tire

vernal moth
#

Well, hybrid means carrying a massive battery with you, it's really not efficient

blissful wing
#

depends

#

how the drivetrain works

#

some hybrids are electric drivetrain with an efficient small generator

vernal moth
#

Yeah, it charges downhill, it's really nice to drive thru cities here now

blissful wing
#

some hybrids use a combined combo drivetrain

vernal moth
#

Nah this is a German BMW so it's dum

blissful wing
#

ah yeah if it charges then it's a big battery

vernal moth
#

It's a plug in hybrid technically

blissful wing
#

yup

vernal moth
#

But only 30km range on electric

blissful wing
#

got a friend who has a non-plug in hybrid

#

just makes it more efficient

vernal moth
#

And we can't charge here, we only charge via recuperation

blissful wing
#

gets like 60mpg city driving

#

sadge

vernal moth
#

But since we on a hill so it still works

blissful wing
#

i can't live without my model3's torque

#

so much fun

vernal moth
#

Heh why am I not surprised you got a Tesla

blissful wing
#

and actually makes driving a bit safer

vernal moth
#

I wish I could drive an EV

blissful wing
#

being able to get up to speed or dart across traffic

vernal moth
#

I actually have the money now

#

But it sadly makes no sense since A) I want a really small car and B) I am in a flat with no on site parking, so no charging at home

blissful wing
#

my advice on EVs, do not buy them for the savings, you can get a really nice car for lower than an EV costs

#

but if you want them because you want them, go for it

vernal moth
#

My dad brought a second gen Nissan leaf when it got out, that's really nice

#

And he has solar panels so it's literally free energy

blissful wing
#

nice

#

yeah I'm considering doing solar at my house

#

got some quotes pending

#

but I need to see what the actual solar coverage is at my latitude

vernal moth
#

Plus gov paid extra for the car since he has solar, and the charger was fully free too

worn ember
#

Meanwhile in belgium: you gotta pay to put your energy back on the grid

blissful wing
vernal moth
#

We sell energy for half the price than we pay

blissful wing
#

I'm also hoping that solar density keeps the current trajectory

vernal moth
#

So not good but not bad

blissful wing
#

and we get 500W residential panels in a year or two

#

they're already up to 400W

vernal moth
#

But my dad has the EV and a battery too, so we use all our energy and never sell

blissful wing
#

powerwall-esc?

worn ember
#

yeah thats the best scenario

vernal moth
#

My dad has 7kw peak

#

Yeah kinda but cheaper and stuff

blissful wing
#

see I just don't want to be stuck in a scenario where I buy $20k of solar panels

#

and then in 2 years they come out with 30% more powerful panels for the same price

blissful wing
#

like right now if everything works the way it's supposed to, ROI is like 20 years for most residential installations

vernal moth
#

20k? That's expensive

blissful wing
#

I want to get that down to 5 years

worn ember
#

we wanted to put a windmill in our backyard but we werent allowed cuz it obscures the view (we have one neighbor in a 500m radius) meanwhile there are 3 full size windmills not even a km from my door kekwhyper

vernal moth
#

Don't panels cost like 200 euro each?

blissful wing
#

depends the density

#

I'd want 400W panels

#

because I have a tall house with not much roof compared to some

vernal moth
#

Panel prices went down crazy here, especially since Germany is actually producing them again

blissful wing
#

but I also use a metric shit ton of power

#

I think I used 3.2megawatt hours last month

vernal moth
#

You got a homelab?

worn ember
#

we have a building which is perfect but the roof is in too bad of a condition to put panels on it

vernal moth
#

As in, basement server rack

#

Or why is it that bad?

blissful wing
#

yes

#

among other things

#

yeah I used 3250kwh last month

#

lol

#

combination of:

  • server rack in the basement
#
  • model 3 charging
worn ember
#

dude casually using 3MW/month

blissful wing
#
  • I keep the aircon set to 19.4C
#
  • big house
vernal moth
#

A coworker brought a battery pack for his solar and now uses it just for his servers, replaced his usv, runs servers just on solar now

#

Oh aircon

blissful wing
#

yes

#

that's the bulk of it

worn ember
#

thats cool

blissful wing
#

lol

vernal moth
#

Well, with that kinda power bill, you can use all energy you produce so it should be a no-brainer

#

In Germany all big supermarket chains suddenly put solar on all their stores

worn ember
#

well gotta pay for it still

blissful wing
#

yeah but like I said, panels are expensive here

#

esp the high density ones

#

I also think I can only install on the back part of my roof

#

e.g. the part not visible from the street

#

because of HOA rules 😦

vernal moth
#

Not because they wanna be seen as green or smth, but because somebody did the math and they had a ROI of just a few years, lol

worn ember
#

probably get benefits from the state for doing so

blissful wing
#

some yeah

vernal moth
#

They also offer free charging for EVs at most places to get rid of excess energy, it's so nice

blissful wing
#

like I said I'm getting some quotes from diff companies

#

if it makes sense I'll go for it

#

but only if the ROI is <8 years

worn ember
#

how long do panels last anyway?

blissful wing
#

I think they're rated for the lifetime fo the roof

#

so 25y

wide chasm
#

We couldn't install panels on front either, but the installers said we could, so we were asked to remove them. Sued the government, somehow won, so now we have them on front and back :)

blissful wing
#

but they also decay in an inverse logarithmic curve

vernal moth
#

15+ years at least, yeah

blissful wing
#

nice @wide chasm

worn ember
#

when in doubt just sue them

#

and if that doesnt work, just appeal and sue them again

blissful wing
#

#murica

worn ember
#

its a EU thing too

vernal moth
#

If I had a house and it would made kinda sense, even with a kinda big ROI, I would still do it if I had the extra money, because it's the right thing to do

worn ember
#

here in belgium you can appeal 2x i think

wide chasm
#

Literally everyone seems to be suing the government here nowadays for some reason

blissful wing
#

oh I will 100% have solar in the time I own this house @vernal moth

vernal moth
#

And even if I lose a few percent of my money, at least am part of the solution and not the problem

blissful wing
#

for a variety of reasons

#

it's more of

#

"if a brand new macbook pro is about to be announced, don't buy the current gen"

#

lol

vernal moth
#

Oh yeah you wanna do it right

so what, 3 watts per square cm?

I wanna buy a house too

I wanna buy an apartment first but that's impossible

And house for me alone doesn't make any sense 😂

We got a bit of regulation against shit like that

worn ember
#

yeah we got those popping up here too

vernal moth
#

Yeah don't think you can pull that off here

city governments are somewhat onboard with it

they'd rather be negotiating with a single corporate entity

#

Like the home owner association shit

worn ember
#

its not like murica is short on ground

blissful wing
#

yeah HOA is really weird

#

it's a real legal entity that I own a single share of

#

a regulated legal entity, in fact

#

there's an entire statute in the state law about what an HOA can and can't do

vernal moth
#

We got that small scale for apartment buildings

worn ember
#

are those the guys that complain if you paint your fence the wrong color?

blissful wing
#

oh yeah it makes a lot of sense if you physically share a wall with someone

worn ember
#

just paint your own side

blissful wing
#

because you kinda need an arbiter

vernal moth
#

Yeah also for roof, basement, outer walls etc

#

But for neighborhoods it's stupid

broken rampart
#

Did someone mention hypixel or something

blissful wing
#

fundamentally the HOA boils down to "I don't really care what you do, but I want to be able to sell my house for the highest possible value whenever I feel like it, so don't do anything weird"

yes originally @broken rampart

our neighborhood has rules about exterior parking yeah

"must be street-legal"

vernal moth
#

I would embrace that and buy a creepy van and paint it funny

blissful wing
#

"must not be a commercial vehicle"

so no vehicles with ads or commercial markings

vernal moth
#

Man, I would be such a terrible neighborhood

in america at least

There's no opting out of xfinity guest

you have to just bring your own router

if you use theirs, it broadcasts it

no opt-out

plenty of time to give each one a special name

peak ginkgo
#

I hate codenaming servers I never remember which word is which

blissful wing
#

we just name them miniX

#

where X is the number

ashen cliff
#

We don't even name stuff anymore, just Location-MAC.

peak ginkgo
blissful wing
#

yup

#

instance T on mini761

little frost
#

then are mega servers on different hardware, or just less instancing?

peak ginkgo
#

so i actually died immediately after taking that screenshot

#

no comment.

blissful wing
#

identical boxes, but separate pool

#

with only 5 instances per host

#

rather than 22

little frost
#

understandable

blissful wing
#

also proportionally more RAM

#

same 32GB for the host, but higher per-instance allocation

worn crest
#

22 instances so 1gig for a mini instance?

blissful wing
#

roughly yeah

#

I think 1.1?

#

and then we save ~500mb for the host OS

ashen cliff
#

That's a lot left for the OS.

worn crest
#

22 * 1,1 = 24,2 or like that 😄 much for debian

peak ginkgo
#

Infrastructure is really hard I just ping Michael

ashen cliff

Infrastructure is easy, unless you go and complicate it for no good reason.

it's not just the OS

#

sorry bad ping

Sir, we don't need triple redundant networking.

peak ginkgo

what if my minecraft server goes offline >:(

twin lagoon
#

Bro.

#

Kubernetes.

blissful wing
#

sshd, some logging daemons, salt minion

broken rampart
#

triple redundant networking is easy, the real dealbreaker is when they don't have triple redundant roofs

blissful wing
#

and if we're syncing maps or something that needs a few hundred mb of ram

whole prawn
ashen cliff
#

You could fit that into 21 MB. kekwhyper

ashen cliff
peak ginkgo
blissful wing
#

triple redundant roofs are easy, the real dealbreaker is when your DC burns down because they can't replace a power cord

ashen cliff
#

They wanted everything, sockets, APs, switches, ...

void void
peak ginkgo
#

Yes

blissful wing
#

just a git pull

void void
#

i see

blissful wing
#

but the minis are happy as is, giving them each 20MB more RAM won't change much

@void void basically regenerate a world and make a backup of the existing one?

yeah they only own "Hypixel Studios", which is making Hytale

charred sleet
#

Riiiiight

blissful wing
#

"Hypixel Inc" which runs the MC server, is totally separate

#

although we're all friends

peak ginkgo
#

The studio and minecraft server are two different entities if it wasn't clear

#

Hypixel 🤝 Also Hypixel

charred sleet

That seems, weird

vernal moth

Wasn't hypixel friends with riot before all this too?

Noxi is ex rito iirc

#

part of the purpose of our original investment round was to unburden the MC server, remember we operated two companies with just the profits from the MC server

which wasn't sustainable with how MC was trending downwards in the end of 2018

heady spear

but we're too dumb to call his bluff

screen

:3

twin lagoon
summer barn
#

its not a major focus for mine. just a side activity

ashen cliff
#

Legit, why overcomplicate stuff?

void void
#

🚮

blissful wing
#

everything for Hytale is kubernetes-native because we want realtime automated scalability in various on-prem and off-prem clouds

#

but Hypixel MC has no need for that

#

so they just use python scripts that start up screen, unzip some stuff, and get to work

heady spear

@waxen panther Mr. Hipickle is telling us that Michael and Jackson have been scamming us all along

I'm sure one of our 10 devs can figure it out at some point

#

maybe I'll start bribing them with donuts

blissful wing
#

don't get me wrong if you're the size that you need dynamic scaling k8s and docker are great*

#

but practically nobody in the MC industry needs dynamic scaling

#

you spend more in development time than it costs to just have the servers up 24/7 with static configs

ashen cliff
#

kekwhyper [redacted] has a fully working setup with it. Even rents more servers when needed.

twin lagoon
#

i'd say that's debatable

#

because it really isn't that much work to get kubernetes + minecraft going with dynamic scaling

blissful wing
#

depends how your MC cluster management works

vernal moth
#

If you know kube

blissful wing
#

and who you're getting servers from

twin lagoon
#

if you know kube yes

worn crest
#

i have my cloud that starts single mc instances and stops it after a round, thats fine for me 😄

twin lagoon
vernal moth
#

Knowing kube is a rather high barrier to entry

twin lagoon
#

stuff like https://agones.dev/ makes scaling pretty easy

ashen cliff
#

To be fair, we don't use containers on that project, just scripts.

vernal moth
#

Do ppl use agones for mc?

peak ginkgo
twin lagoon
#

yes

wispy blade
#

it's michael

twin lagoon
peak ginkgo
void void
#

agones more like agony

#

tbh k8s would be great to use if it still wasn't stuck on cgroups v1 ffs

twin lagoon
#

depends on how you deploy it reeeeeeeee

#

on the other hand i can't care less about cgroups

#

mostly because i don't know the diff between v1 & v2 KEKW

void void
#

yeah you need to take a look at it by yourself if you want to know

blissful wing
#

it also depends your workload

#

are you running untrusted code on your hosts?

#

if not, most of the security stuff for multi-tenant doesn't matter

#

like running a multi-tenant kubernetes installation with untrusted clients is 100x more difficult

#

than "i want k8s to manage my software for me"

#

also depends if you're operating your own kube cluster

#

or deploying into someone else's

#

for Hytale I plan to operate our own HA kubernetes cluster on our bare metal hosts

#

so there's a lot of glue to get a HA cluster running smoothly when you have no magical cloud LoadBalancer service

twin lagoon
#

yes

blissful wing
#

and no persistent volume support

twin lagoon
#

weeeell

#

there's longhorn for that

#

or k3s' local path provisioner

blissful wing
#

I use neither

#

:3

#

I choose pain.

twin lagoon
#

no persistent volumes at all or just hostpath?

void void
#

.g zfs-localpv

limber knotBOT
void void
#

that's what i used last time

blissful wing
#

the only thing that needs persistent storage anywhere is our databases

twin lagoon
#

oh huh that's a pretty interesting one

blissful wing
#

so we host-pin the DBs to particular nodes

#

and hostPath them

twin lagoon
#

oh yeah no same story here

blissful wing
#

I prefer to know where the fuck my DB files are

twin lagoon
#

i just plan on using local path provisioner so i can just use PVCs

blissful wing
#

oh yeah that's what I'm doing as of like two months ago

#

it's quite easy actually

#

thought it'd be more challenging

twin lagoon
#

the load balancer stuff can still be done if you have the luxury of BGP

#

then again nothing prevents you from host-pinning to certain nodes & using hostport though

blissful wing
#

I don't even host-pin

#

I just hostNetwork: true

#

and dynamically update DNS to point to whatever matches the selector

twin lagoon
#

hostnetwork & hostport are the same for me

blissful wing
#

they shouldn't be

#

they're very different

twin lagoon
#

in k8s by default yes

#

i don't use kube-proxy though

blissful wing
#

hostPort opens a port on all hosts and uses clever (but totally un-scalable) iptables forwarding

#

ah

#

I do

twin lagoon
#

so hostport goes over the eBPF datapath

blissful wing
#

with a calico overlay

twin lagoon
#

i used calico at first but had major issues running minecraft for some reason

blissful wing
#

yeah but you're still consuming additional network resources

#

aren't you?

twin lagoon
#

don't think so?

blissful wing
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

oh

#

eBPF

twin lagoon
#

yes

blissful wing
#

I read that as eBGP

#

lol

twin lagoon
#

to be fair i have no clue what the fuck eBPF does but it does what it should be doing

#

cilium is epic

blissful wing
#

calico is pretty wild at scale

#

BGP'ing within your own network

#

virtual routing appliances

#

nutty

void void
#

calico is pretty nice yea

blissful wing
#

and it gets even better when you've got modern physical network appliances

void void
#

even outside k8s

blissful wing
#

switches and such

#

because it can just.....work

#

tag the traffic with the right VLAN and the physical switch knows how to get the data to where it should go

void void
#

i wrote my own game server orchestrator based on containerd, since i went with CNI for networking then calico was pretty easy to introduce

#

also weavenet is pog

twin lagoon
#

for some odd reason calico just wasn't the way to go for me

void void
twin lagoon
#

like random timeouts, noticable ingame lag

blissful wing
#

I tried weaveworks for a bit

#

but I don't like the whole "OSS but pay us for advanced features" thing

#

my goal for hytale deploy was $0/mo in licensing fees

#

exclusively paying hardware and ops fees (power, bw, etc)

void void
#

i just pay using my time :(

#

and write/glue most of the shit i need by myself

blissful wing
#

you guys know about CNCF landscape right?

void void
#

yep

blissful wing
#

really fucking useful if you haven't heard of it

#

afk for a bit

void void
#

should look into swapping out my CI

#

Concourse is nice but i'd love to use something better

#

been looking at Drone CI, but not sure how good it is

twin lagoon
#

proxi uses it

void void
#

@minor badge try selling me drone ci

twin lagoon
#

feel like concourse is too complicated

void void
#

it's ok, but it doesn't have much batteries included

#

it's like glorified cron

#

as in it does not provide a way to store build artifacts anywhere etc

minor badge
#

drone is ass

void void
#

and you can't do scripting in flexible way

#

also i'd like to swap out Harbor with something simpler

#

probably have to write one by myself...

minor badge
#

yeah i wanna do that too

void void
minor badge
#

but i dont have anything to warrant it as i have GH Actions now

twin lagoon
#

how's harbor

#

was going to use it at some point

void void
#

it's ok

#

but i don't need 75% of the features it provides

twin lagoon
#

fair

void void
#

i simply need OCI image hosting

#

with ACL

#

and harbor is pain to maintain if you need to make changes to its docker-compose.yml

#

e.g i want it to use data volumes instead of bind mounts

What is the best warp plugin?

potent fossil

@willow robin Have not heard but from a cursory look let me tell you why to reconsider:

  • registered domain less than a year ago
  • not a registered business anywhere (that I can see)
  • site looks like a modified template
  • terms of service is written ambiguously (clearly did not contract a lawyer to write or review)
  • return policy in footer does not actually exist (lends to modified template idea) and redirects to TOS
  • privacy policy also does not exist (big fucking yikes)
  • $1.25/gb smells heavily like overselling
  • no info about geographical location of servers
  • logo is so stretched out that it looks blurry on a large monitor

that initial fast zoom is unavoidable, but afterwards you can see how it speeds up, then slows down
