liberodark | ? | 15:11:13 |
Gaétan Lepage | What liberodark would like to do is to let nix-community be the admin of his machine.
Is that a thing that could work out zowoq ? | 15:13:54 |
emily | that's the list for the Darwin builder fwiw, the Linux one is separate | 15:15:14 |
emily | there's already an x86 Linux builder though, it's AArch64 that's missing now | 15:15:24 |
liberodark | Sorry my bad | 15:15:33 |
emily | (though I guess if there's a funded x86 Linux builder maybe the funds being used on the current one could go to AArch64 instead?) | 15:15:35 |
liberodark | Yes have possibility to help on this. | 15:15:52 |
liberodark | What is the spec needed for aarch64 ? | 15:17:09 |
emily | "some Ampere" :) | 15:17:32 |
Gaétan Lepage | "please Santa" | 15:17:49 |
Gaétan Lepage | ;) | 15:17:53 |
liberodark | Currently I have mostly x86_64 available for other needs so I thought I would make one available. | 15:17:54 |
liberodark | Yep im go to work on this later | 15:18:14 |
liberodark | But for now ? | 15:18:18 |
emily | it's tricky because there's a pretty big divide in AArch64-land between single board computers and huge expensive server hardware, and it's definitely the latter we need. Hetzner sells 80-core Amperes though, so maybe if your x86 Linux builder works the funds for the current x86 Linux builder could be redirected to that | 15:18:32 |
emily | FWIW, the current x86 builder has Ryzen 9 3900, 128 GiB RAM, ~3.5T disk | 15:19:17 |
liberodark | I don't have any funds per se.
It's more about being able to help on community builders.
I'll look for ampere but I don't have any available. | 15:21:32 |
emily | I meant, the Nix Community organization is currently paying for that Ryzen | 15:21:47 |
liberodark | Yes, for me it's that kind of builder too. | 15:21:56 |
emily | so if we can replace it with your box (what's the specs?), then that money could go to AArch64 instead | 15:22:01 |
emily | and we'd have both | 15:22:03 |
emily | so it could work out :) | 15:22:29 |
liberodark | I offer free hosting of this one. | 15:22:34 |
emily | anyway it's zowoq you'd want to talk to I believe | 15:22:58 |
liberodark | Ok i understand | 15:23:04 |
