 steveej | anyone familiar here with nix-snapshotter? i'm trying to manually run an image with nerdctl and it cannot find resolve the image:
$ sudo -E nerdctl run --privileged --rm "nix:0$(nix build --impure .#image --print-out-paths):latest"
warning: Git tree '/home/steveej/src/steveej/infra' is dirty

if i use an image that was previously loaded into the snapshotter via k3s i can run it manually as well. how can i manually load an image?

i figured this one out. it needs to be loaded first:
sudo nix2container load ./result
| 12:09:44 |
| steveej | still figuring out how the rest of this should work. i'm point the container to
entrypoint = "${self.nixosConfigurations.default.config.system.build.toplevel}/init";
and when starting that thing can't find any binary. probably it's not setting up the mounts of the nix store paths right.

it almost works fine now. except the systemd credentials mechanism is broken. the credential directories all show up empty. any idea what the root cause could be there? | 19:30:51 |

| @adam:robins.wtf | any NVME recommendations? | 13:53:19 |
 hexa | consumer disks? | 13:55:37 |
| hexa | low end? high end? | 13:55:51 |
| @adam:robins.wtf | well i don't want to pay enterprise prices, but i want enterprise durability :) | 13:56:10 |
| @adam:robins.wtf | lifespan is probably more important to me than high end speed | 13:56:36 |
| hexa | do we even know the lifespan of NVMe drives? 😄 | 13:56:54 |
| @adam:robins.wtf | how about TBW :) | 13:57:01 |
| hexa | ahh ok | 13:57:09 |
| hexa | Samsung is the obvious choice, when you don't want to compare anything and money is shrug | 13:57:56 |
| hexa | I tend to stay away from WD because they've exhibited bad business practices on multiple occassions now. | 13:58:23 |
| hexa | The last drives I bought were from Kioxicia | 13:58:42 |
| hexa | * The last drives I bought were from Kioxia | 13:58:44 |
| hexa | peak TBW for 2TB is ~1.3PB, and for 4TB around ~2.4PB | 14:00:36 |
| @adam:robins.wtf | yeah that's pretty good | 14:01:19 |
| hexa | kioxia offers 800TB at 2TB | 14:02:08 |
| hexa | with the excercia pro | 14:02:25 |
| @adam:robins.wtf | last one i bought was https://www.predatorstorage.com/products/predator-gm7000-pcie-4-ssd.html | 14:04:49 |

do we even know the lifespan of NVMe drives? 😄 Unfortunately, yes. | 15:33:19 |
| abyxcos | What exactly are you looking for out of a drive/card? | 15:35:10 |
