Right - I had to buy one last year. I don't have a particular recommendation, but there are plenty of such things on eBay.

joepie91: Had a epiphany when I went to bed, which also meant I couldn't sleep.... - But basically, weights on price, area, rooms, facilities and then scoring each apartment on how good a match it is from green to red
<eyJhb>
So basically, no it should be X, Y, and Z, but rather this is X important, this is Z important, etc.
<jasongrossman>
eyJhb: What's the purpose of the service? Can my wife use it to find somewhere to rent in Odense?
<jasongrossman>
(Sorry you couldn't sleep.)
<eyJhb>
jasongrossman: nope, only Aalborg sorry. It is basically a extension of AKU-Aalborg, which everyone in Aalborg agrees on, is properly the worst site to ever come into exsistence

Sorry! And it only functions for AKU-Aalborg (student apartments), so every other site in Aalborg isn't included :p

Anybody up for a little discussion? How would you go about finding idle, unused, not needed, might not have a purpose anymore sites, servers, VMs, domains, subdomains, credentials to backends, etc. in a big organisation? Where most is undocumented? - Just had this discussion yesterday with someone, and finding a solution to such problems seems quite hard -
<Taneb>
eyJhb: kill them at random and find out who complains? :P
ajirx has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<eyJhb>
Taneb: that is like, basically what I proposed too :p But like, the counter argument is, someone might not like that
<eyJhb>
Like the only basic universal idea would be, find the critical services (which should already be known), email everyone in the company specifiying to call out if they have anything, and then just massively shut down everything else in waves
<joepie91>
that just sounds like "kill them at random and find out who complains" with more steps :P
<joepie91>
you'll definitely still get angry people with that procedure, who somehow believe that you should've magically guessed which servers were theirs and they have no obligation to reply to your call-out etc.
<joepie91>
I would recommend not caring too much about angry people :D
<manveru>
traffic analysis, see which ones receive traffic from where and who's responsible for the traffic :)
<joepie91>
I think that it *would* be useful to send out an advance notice/request first, but just because it reduces the amount of people bothering the IT desk, not so much because it results in less angry people
<manveru>
if you don't have that in place yet... it's probably a good idea to setup anyway
<eyJhb>
Yeah, basically there is NO way to not get angry people when doing anything in IT, and especially not when killing servers :p But yeah, traffic analysis and last use of credentials is properly useful
<eyJhb>
ANybody have experience doing such a operation?
<Taneb>
Only on a much much smaller scale
<sphalerite>
eyJhb: I accidentally turned off the staging server for a website at work once?

Well then you just listen here! Don't.
<eyJhb>

<Taneb>
eyJhb: about 8 people

Ahh, I am talking scales/companies of 50.000 and above....
<eyJhb>

<manveru>

tilpner has joined #nixos-chat
<manveru>
you have anything like OpenNMS?
<eyJhb>
I would not assume so no
<eyJhb>
But properly something else
<eyJhb>
Are you thinking monitoring?
<eyJhb>
Problem is with external things that access inwards
<manveru>
at least to get an inventory
<eyJhb>
It was also just a general idea, I think I will have a hard time pulling this through where I work
<manveru>
yeah, don't have a good idea for that :|
<eyJhb>
But fun thing, they are discussion the plan for critical systems at the office right next to me. I was just looking at it :p
<joepie91>
eyJhb: hm, not sure I understand how weights replace limits
tilpner has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
<eyJhb>
Minimum pricing for a apartment, 1000 DKK, maximum pricing for a house 10000, lowest is better. So if a apartment is 1000 DKK a month, then it scores a 10, if it is 10000 a month, then is scores a 1. Combine this with how much it is weighted for a user, e.g. 7, then take 7 * 10, e.g. and you have a score on how "good" it matches the criterias
tilpner has joined #nixos-chat
<joepie91>
eyJhb: hmmm. I'm not sure that matches up with eg. the practice of setting a particular minimum because you want to eliminate impossibly cheap broom closets (not sure if this metaphor translates well :P)
<eyJhb>
It should end up with something useable, e.g. price 7, area 5, pets 3, kitchen 5, everything else 1
<eyJhb>
But I was thinking of it more as nice-to-have, and a extra feature. E.g. a tab between the two filter types :D
<joepie91>
right
<eyJhb>
But this might be one of those, not going to happen things

Can anyone recommend some sort of software for managing computer logins over a small-ish office (~15 computers)?
<Taneb>
So I can say in one place that everyone in the office has accounts everywhere
<__monty__>
Taneb: Sounds like kerberos.
<Taneb>
__monty__: yeah, that looks about what I'm after
<eyJhb>
joepie91: any good ideas on making the buttons more visible?
<andi->
it would help A LOT if providers would establish prefix filters to peers where it is feasible..
<andi->
I did that at my old employer with lots and lots of back pressure since it isn't exactly cheap on crappy hardware but protects your customers from leaks like these (to some degree at least)
<joepie91>
"ATI produces titanium and titanium alloys, nickel-based alloys and superalloys, grain-oriented electrical steel, stainless and specialty steels, zirconium, hafnium, and niobium, tungsten materials, forgings and castings.[1] "
<joepie91>
a metal alloy producer just shut down half the internet
<joepie91>
gotta love BGP...
<pie_>
people on about dns and ddos and shit
<pie_>
just hack some bgp
<andi->
"hack", buy some transit on any of the big providers and tell them you can't have import filters on their sides because your customers come and go on hourly basis.. Tada no more worries about being unable to annouce some crap.
<pie_>
"They aren't the original leaker.
<pie_>
Sorry, I may have been wrong. Hard to see clearly in the fog of BGP. "
<pie_>
joepie91, ^^
<joepie91>
ah :P
<pie_>
wait except apparently it is?
<pie_>
googling ASN 396531 from the next post says it is...
<pie_>
lol " I realized that it would be an issue like this when downforeveryoneorjustme.com didn't load either. "
<pie_>
also lol " As an aside, there is something to be said about the size of Cloudflare when global network problems are reported as being Cloudflare issues. "
<pie_>
anyway move along folks, nothing wrong here
<manveru>
hmm, looks like discord is broken too
<joepie91>
pie_: yeah, I didn't expect to ever have to come to cloudflare's defense, but here we are

I wouldn't really have known it was tumblr if it weren;t pointed out to me
* gchristensen
did, but holds a certain expertise
<eyJhb>
colemickens: as soon as you need the search function, or need to add a website you will :\
<eyJhb>
gchristensen: e.g. you have no clue, if they might have fixed it, and the only way to know, is by commenting
<eyJhb>
Have been playing with the thought, of implementing my own on Gitlab. But I don't really know, if it would be cruel to require a Gitlab account. Better than Tumblr I would assume (but that is just me)
<eyJhb>
gchristensen: how does the graham bot function e.g. for new comments on issues, and knowing when a new comment has come in? Is it just constantly pulling?
<gchristensen>
on github?
<gchristensen>
it receives a copy of everything which occurs on the NixOS org an GitHub
<gchristensen>
no pulling/polling, but instead filtering
<eyJhb>
"it receives a copy of everything", webhooks??
<gchristensen>
right
<eyJhb>
Hmm... Seems like the right solution, if one has a server available/want to use a server
<gchristensen>
are you wanting to do something similar?
<eyJhb>
Considering using Gitlab Issues with Prefix `Offender:`, and then having something in the format of a HTTP header to describe the offender.. And then running a gitlab ci every X hours/days for updating tickets, validating, etc.
<eyJhb>
So webhooks can't really be used, would need to safe the last time the CI was run, etc.
<gchristensen>
yeah you'll probably need state for that
<gchristensen>
oh maybe not
<eyJhb>
Enlighten me :D
<gchristensen>
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/api/events.html lets you spelunk through the event log, so maybe you could have your system look for some event which indicates it doesn't need re-running
<eyJhb>
But unless I want to loop the whole log, then I still need to know at which time, I did something last
<eyJhb>
I will properly have a file that I update each time a new event happen. So I could use that as a base date, and then continue onward from that each time, until something new happens
<gchristensen>
yeah
<gchristensen>
probably best to keep a little sqlite db or something around
<eyJhb>
My idea is to generate a yaml, json, csv file, and then build a static website from that
<eyJhb>
Kinda like the AKU thing, where i have a CI which generates the data.js each time something is updated
<eyJhb>
