this one is running Z2M, since I have the USBs disabled on the APU and want the coordinator central~ish
I need to try and fiddle with the 2nd one again. It got USB-OTG and I wanted to setup USB-boot with a block device that's backed by NFS for some test-automation with real hardware

Only thing i have done with raspberries so far

So my neighbors can listen music with me even if i am showering

thats still probably one of my favorite and most simplest automations.....automated music when in the shower

and if you ever have guests staying over and they dont know about that automation, it can lead to some funny stories 😛

Must be written the same person that wrote the emergency work-around for the Exchange bug that took down mail servers on January 1st

#

For the uninitiated: Exchange stores malware definition date-stamps weird, and January 1st 2022 overflowed the column... so the work-around involved Microsoft setting the date-stamp to December 33rd, 2021.

how the hell does opensense/pfsense not have some automatic method of curbing the net data before it completely fills up your drive

curbing what data ?

#

are you doing squid caching ?

I didn't even set anything up, it's whatever the default netflow shit that's in place

they state in the docs it's manual only deleting the db but it's dumb they haven't figured out some auto method

netflow default ?

did you set something up tho? changing the default

emmc has gone down in price so they can charge you premium price for something you can't upgrade yourself

I guess space Vs design. Then again the tray only extends few mm with m.sd

flash production price is lower than 100 usd per 1tb

Then again sim will also be phased out for battery space and esim

Would be nice, then they could remove the little slot for cards in your phone, so less water can get in

Hello, I know there are a lot of wizards here and I hope you can help me with this as google didn't 🙂

I am trying to periodically restart a docker container

It is an http server for one of my integrations but after a while it stops communicating and the only fix is to restart the container or reboot the host

that is a weird fix

docker restart httpcontainer should do

this is offtopic for this channel btw

Please use a code share site to share code or logs, for example:

Please don't use Pastebin, since it can randomly add spaces to the main view. Please also don't share text as images since it makes it harder for people to help you. Remember that others may have colour blindness, impaired vision, etc.

They knowingly had an XSS vulnerability open in the canary client for months, they didn't want to patch it just bc to exploit it you needed a modded client, the others who'd be targets of the attack didn't need a modded client. Which showed they don't care shit about their users

#

You seem to have lost a few 9s on the way

strange crag
#

that may be because I retired from that game a few years back. At that stage it was 4x9 and not 5x9 or 6etc

#

probably a decade ago - my how time flies when you are having fun and not doing that shit! lol

clear ferry
#

We've done 6 9s as default for the last 15+ years, for special deals we do 8 9s

#

And we deliver 100% for some systems for the last 3 years

strange crag
#

yeah - that would be tough - 6 9s is like 1 hour downtime in a year I think.

glacial knot
#

do the 100% never update, or is that 100% over a cluster of systems?

strange crag
#

have to be over a cluster

clear ferry
#

It's storage systems with multiple nodes

#

Six 9s for a service is easy, for a server it is still doable

strange crag
#

no hosting company in their right minds would agree to all those 9's without it being a cluster as they have to take it down for patches and of course there is murphies law to take into account as well

glacial knot
#

I wish we had at least 2 9s for the cluster at work

clear ferry
#

I have multiple systems with 700+ days uptime for the service

#

That is not rare

#

I've had standalone systems with 10 years uptime

strange crag
#

do you deal with windows boxes? atx? that is rare for them

clear ferry
#

Yes

#

Windows runs on itanium too

#

I've managed those with years of uptime

strange crag
#

still needs a lot of patching and that requires a reboot and 5 9's means basically you cant do it

clear ferry
#

Doesn't need patching if it isn't internet connected

strange crag
#

ahah! I knew there was a catch!

clear ferry

But yeah

strange crag

then its not much of a service is it!

glacial knot
#

atx, have you ever seen a raccoon in a DC? 🤔

clear ferry
#

To elaborate on the 100% uptime @glacial knot it has to be internet connected so we can patch it as needed, systems are part of a global ai system that tests Out patches on early adopters and then either rolls those patches out or reverts them if a known bug is found

that way it dosen't distract your eye but still gives the blank background some fill

currently it's one of two types of pages. one where the table is stretched 100% and the other where the table is narrow. I personally wish the tables would be relatively the same sizes but atleast the pages where the tables aren't stretched the background would look better than blank lol

yes - as systemd starts on boot and if any timers are missed during the downtime then it will start them off too

dusky plank

and cron.. does not run on boot?

clear ferry

It can surely do that

strange crag
#

cron runs on boot, but will not start any missed jobs

dusky plank
#

lol, i dont want my container to restart 18 times then

rare night
#

I really don't need it to do missed jobs

glacial knot
#

cron can, but systemd allows to set timers that run if the timestamp was missed

rare night
#

As I see for me Crontab didn't start after reboot

#

Adding it to start-up applications is a solution?

dusky plank
#

0 0,13 * * * docker restart prana should be enough

#

if you mess it up, cron wont run

#

there is really no need for systemd for such a one liner

strange crag
#

there used to be a nice littel command "at" that could be run "at 5pm (job to run)" but that seems to have vanished these days

dusky plank
#

you can still do @reboot

I was under the impression that cron will be deprecated at some point

glacial knot

nah

I'm gonna guess sometime after 2525

What do you mean by not trusting them to get the documentation right?

They pissed me off royally last time

#

moving to a computer for more comfortable ranting

#

They have no problem tacking on the 25% VAT demanded for cool stuff shipped to Norway, but if you get an ignorant merchant they won't list that charge in the documents, resulting in the courier doing their thing and adding VAT plus charges on top.

#

In theory it should be possible to get those back, but last time the courier the merchant used handed the package off a bunch of times to other companies before it got to me, so when I handed in my receipts for having payed the VAT twice to the Ali claims desk, they were like: lol dafuq is diz, k tnx

#

What's really sad is that all they really have to do is list the VOEC code for AliExpress with my address and it would have worked out fine
