@k900:0upti.meK900It's kind of the only open source thing that works at VERY LARGE scale13:29:05
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)datacenter scale?13:37:04
@just1602:systemli.orgjust1602Yeah, the only place I know about use open stack is OVHcloud and the university in my city, which has multiple datacenters and also sell VPS and managed kubernetes to public org. 13:37:10
@just1602:systemli.orgjust1602* Yeah, the only place I know who use open stack is OVHcloud and the university in my city, which has multiple datacenters and also sell VPS and managed kubernetes to public org. 13:37:36
@k900:0upti.meK900 Like four digits nodes 13:37:38
@truh:matrix.orgtruhI think LIDL uses it for their cloud too13:42:51
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)they have their own cloud??13:43:54
@k900:0upti.meK900I mean they are massive13:44:18
@truh:matrix.orgtruhit.schwarz13:44:34
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)what is their tld 😭13:44:56
@k900:0upti.meK900Over 12800 locations according to wikipedia13:45:53
@k900:0upti.meK900At that scale you basically have to run your own infra13:46:08
@just1602:systemli.orgjust1602For a fancy homelab that ressemble production like env with UI and everything I'd look into incus + garage or something like that13:47:08
@ginkogruen:matrix.orgginkogruen

I’m using the git version of lix from nixpkgs on my mac. But I somehow don’t get a cached build (which I think I did previously) and it fails during building when running tests.

       > FAILED ../tests/functional2/commands/test_build/test_reference_checks.py::test_regression_partial_build[files0]
       > FAILED ../tests/functional2/commands/test_build/test_reference_checks.py::test_structured_attrs_discard[files0]

Is this something known because I couldn’t find issues (on nixpkgs & lix) regarding that so far?

@marie:marie.cologneMarie it's the name of the company 13:52:21
@marie:marie.cologneMariethey have their own tld because they have too much money13:52:30
@truh:matrix.orgtruhclaiming a color for your company tld is almost as annoying as .fox13:53:44
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusif you are private cloud shaped, OpenStack makes sense14:11:47
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusceph is a filesystem technology14:11:53
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariuscontainers is one way to offer compute, it's orthogonal to openstack14:12:04
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusyou compare OpenStack to like commercial products that VMware offers14:12:19
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariuson mac, we know there are issues with macOS14:13:20
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusespecially on Tahoe14:13:27

Thanks for pointing me to the issue :) This will arrive in nixpkgs relatively soon right?
14:17:13
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusthere's no true fix for now14:17:21
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusthe workaround is to do doCheck = false; or retry frequently enough14:17:30
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariuswe are a bit blocked because introducing the shebang breaks things and we need to introduce the shebang i feel like14:18:00
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusi have no idea yet how we are going to overcome this14:18:05
@ginkogruen:matrix.orgginkogruenMaybe I’ll pin lix then until it’s fixed.14:18:17
