 emily | we could also just self-host runners | 15:49:22 |
| emily | but those are going to have an additional charge at some point 🙃 | 15:49:32 |
 hexa | * @janne:hess.ooo we have two m1 minis in transit that we could allocate to ofborg | 15:49:41 |
|  jappie changed their display name from jappie to jappie @ 39c3. | 15:49:41 |
| emily | IIRC ofborg x86_64-darwin capacity is actual Intel Macs, right? | 15:49:58 |
| hexa | * | 15:50:02 |
| hexa | Mixed I think, but I might be mis remembering | 15:50:19 |
| emily | so nominally they're not taking away any compute from aarch64-darwin (but I agree it makes sense to not prioritize any further work there) | 15:50:22 |
 gabyx | self-host runners -> is still the shitty GHA, the question is more does nixpkgs want to stay on that system? | 15:50:34 |
| gabyx | * self-host runners -> is still the shitty GHA, the question is more does nixpkgs want to stay on that system? On that runner which runs with node and has all sorts of flaws like overwritting the $HOME env var in every container etc etc if you need containers ... | 15:51:24 |
 dish [Fox/It/She] | is there a better option for the needs of nixpkgs atm? there's been a very large push to use GHA for the moment, plus github is providing a lot of free compute we aren't getting if we move to another splution | 15:52:44 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | of course theres always a better option, but considering the limitations and benefits of using GHA at the moment... 🤷♀️ | 15:53:16 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | just my thoughts to be clear, not trying to speak for anyone else | 15:56:51 |
