Mic92 | I could maybe adapt https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Varnish_caching | 06:42:07 |
ners | Hello, as members of the EC, @RossComputerGuy and I would like to request vault access to set up SMTP for the election. Is this the right place to ask? | 14:07:43 |
Jeremy Fleischman (jfly) | I don't know if the password is stored in Vaultwarden. IMO, it would be better for it not to be stored there and instead for the EC to generate a new password for each election. There are instructions for that here: https://github.com/NixOS/infra/tree/main/non-critical-infra/modules/mailserver#mailing-lists | 14:25:14 |
Mic92 | Nginx-based fastcgi caching seems to do the trick. | 17:58:07 |

raboof | Likely not something that has a quick fix, but perhaps something to take into account next year: people seem to be running into session expiration issues with the survey: https://snug.moe/notes/acnkov8yosyrs62c | 11:23:45 |

lennart | big oof, it's a 2018 Intel :( | 11:06:36 |
Mic92 | hexa (signing key rotation when): BMG want's to join the infra meeting tomorrow to show his progress on his gc infra. | 11:13:09 |
hexa | sure, why not | 11:13:46 |
hexa | the meeting is open anyway | 11:13:49 |
Mic92 | Just a heads-up, so it's not just me talking to him :) | 11:15:01 |
BMG | 👋 I know Jonas Chevalier has been chatting with you guys about what i've been working on the last few months, but I think it's at a stage where it's worth showing where I've got to, where I'm going and get some input | 11:15:57 |

Vladimír Čunát | The 240M /boot on the haumea machine is a real pain. | 06:41:33 |
Vladimír Čunát | Oh, nixos-rebuild copies some stuff in before cleaning up the obsolete files 🤦 | 06:46:18 |
Vladimír Čunát | * Oh, nixos-rebuild copies some stuff in before cleaning up the obsolete files, so it's unable to recover without manual deletions 🤦 | 06:46:39 |
sterni | vcunat: I ran into this as well in the last month and diagnosed it to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/commit/f2ca99055823b3c2ce762ea2d4a315086a530c3d | 11:42:47 |
sterni | i.e. this used to not be a problem since it would always re write everything | 11:43:25 |
sterni | I am planning to write a patch for the failure mode where it copies a file and runs out of disk space by just deleting the partially copied file; haven’t gotten around to it yet probably will do so on the weekend | 11:44:27 |
sterni | but I’m not sure this would fix all possible ways in which this can break | 11:44:42 |
Vladimír Čunát | 🤔 I thought these were 25.05 systems, though, i.e. before that commit. | 11:44:45 |
sterni | ah you may be right | 11:45:26 |
sterni | well then at least you don’t have the issue that a partially copied initrd is never re-written and the machine kernel panics on boot :p | 11:46:00 |
Vladimír Čunát | But now on another 25.05 system it did recover from df of zero. | 11:46:03 |
