evanjs: check if your gaming works inside wine ;)
<evanjs>
avn: I use proton when I can but games like Witcher 3 definitely get angry
<eyJhb>
joepie91: you awake? I seem to remember you recomended something else than Google Analytics
<joepie91>
eyJhb: I may have mentioned Piwik. though less data collection in general is better, ofc :)
<eyJhb>
I just need something to show me page views/hits. If I could get something basically like AWStats I would be happy
<avn>
evanjs: I have plans merge dxvk to nixos' wine, but my video is pre-vulkan. which stop me ;)
<eyJhb>
joepie91: I need to host it myself then, else I have to pay for it... And then the project somehow looses meaning
<joepie91>
eyJhb: that's the idea, yes, keeping the data on your own infrastructure
<joepie91>
eyJhb: but if you only need basic data, just parsing access logs should be enough
<joepie91>
sec
<eyJhb>
joepie91: hosted on Gitlab Pages, I do not have access logs :p
<joepie91>
one of the many reasons not to use blackbox hosting things like github pages
<eyJhb>
Eh, I kinda like it. Free, don't have to pay, updates itself, etc.
<joepie91>
once you've bought into the "look at this free stuff! (oh btw we're a commercial company that collects user data)" ecosystem, you'll be limited to what it has to offer, which is generally highly privacy-invasiv ve
<joepie91>
invasive*
<eyJhb>
But this is one downside
<joepie91>
eyJhb: turning on unattended upgrades on an ubuntu box also updates itself
<joepie91>
and doesn't have this problem
<eyJhb>
joepie91: different kind of upgrades here :p Updating of the data. I like not having to worry about keeping a VM alive, etc. I just setup a repo with Gitlab, turn on a schedule and pages and it works. Plus continues to do so for years, without me having to do anything
<joepie91>
eyJhb: this is true of a VM at a reputable hosting provider too
<joepie91>
pick a reputable provider, install Ubuntu LTS, enable unattended upgrades, set up a timer for updating the stuff or a hook or whatever, and you pretty much won't have to look at it for years either
<joepie91>
these costs are all one-time setup costs, and it will save you a lot of hassle in having to find tools that fit within github pages' extremely limited model
<joepie91>
(with all the cascading privacy issues that usually derive from that set of tools)
<eyJhb>
But the price is also bigger than 0.00 EUR, where this is just a nice-to-have thing
<joepie91>
yes, it is. you're using infrastructure, which costs money to run. so if you're not paying for your infrastructure, you should wonder about where the money is coming from
<joepie91>
ie. wonder about what currency you're really paying with for your hosting.
<eyJhb>
But does that make you stop using Freenode, Github, Gitlab, etc. joepie91 ?
<joepie91>
eyJhb: I don't use Github or Gitlab, and Freenode only because that's where channels are.
<joepie91>
so: yes :)
<joepie91>
none of my own projects land on github nowadays, I pretty much only use it for forks/patches (because you pretty much have to)
<joepie91>
sphalerite: worth noting that I don't do monorepos and that skews the numbers a bit when you compare to monorepo-using projects
<sphalerite>
fair enough
<sphalerite>
Also, I'm annoyed at security right now.
<sphalerite>
I bought some smart sockets a while back and flashed esphome onto them over-the-air thanks to a security bug in the stock firmware (it downloaded updates via unencrypted HTTP and without signing or anything). Bought another set of them, and those are fixed to use HTTPS at least (not sure about signing and stuff). But now I can't put esphome on them :(
<eyJhb>
sphalerite: complain ! ;)
<joepie91>
sphalerite: some more background on the monorepo thing... I follow the "one module per responsibility" model in JS, which means that I end up producing a lot of generally-useful modules while implementing a single 'end-user project' -- sometimes many of those modules belong to the same set of utilities, like a streams spec I'm currently working on... but I keep every stream in its own repo rather than having a single repo
<joepie91>
with all the streams, because despite the claimed benefits of monorepos (which are really just deficiencies in github, but I digress) they make it *really* difficult to selectively fork and adapt packages, because you draw in a big pile of other crap that you don't care about when forking a repo
<joepie91>
and ultimately my goal is to contribute towards building a public commons, which means that it's important not to have that issue; forking a package and creating a new one (competing, slightly different purpose, whatever) needs to be low-overhead, and someone should only get the package they were looking to get
<joepie91>
but a good amount of other projects value management convenience over the building-a-public-commons thing, and so they do use monorepos
<joepie91>
</ramble>
<sphalerite>
eyJhb: I just emailed support. Bet they'll be really helpful :p
<eyJhb>
joepie91: I think I am somewhat at fault here as well... :/
<eyJhb>
sphalerite: of course! "Please make your things less secure, it is inconvenient for me" :p
<sphalerite>
joepie91: yeah I'm familiar with your arguing against people who complain that raaaaghh nodejs ecosystem is awful because so many deeeeps
<sphalerite>
;)
<joepie91>
sphalerite: that... actually was not what the background was about :P
<joepie91>
that was just context
<sphalerite>
joepie91: but it's quite strongly related! ;)
<joepie91>
the other projects I mentioned do the same thing, many single-responsibility packages, they just glob them together into a monorepo
<joepie91>
and that's the thing I was addressing :P
<eyJhb>
So my own browser blocks Matomo, nice to know :p
<eyJhb>
Don't even think there is a reason not to use Google Analytics, as the website already uses Google Maps.
<evanjs>
Alright, so the number one way to free up space for rebuilds so far is to remove windows. Any other ideas? Maybe make a top level arg that forces xorg and a bunch of other big stuff off so I can just pass it in with --arg when I need to?
<joepie91>
have you GC'd?
<evanjs>
It doesn't go far enough haha
<evanjs>
autoOptimise and tmpOnTmpfs are on 😃
<joepie91>
evanjs: then the only remaining recommendation I have is "a filesystem that supports block-level dedupe, like ZFS"
<evanjs>
Using F2FS right now because it's just one drive and it's an SSD. Going to change soon once work lets me upgrade but idkkkkk

I just remember our teacher akwardly telling us about his first time
<eyJhb>
Not a fan
<sphalerite>
lol
<sphalerite>
I think mine was alright
<ashkitten>
honestly tho consent education is so important and nobody seems to teach it properly
<eyJhb>
I remember we had some of that ashkitten ! But it seems like it should be basic
<ashkitten>
the main thing is, if you don't teach it, people end up looking to what they think is correct based on what other parts of the world have taught them (movies, tv shows, etc)
<ashkitten>
and uh, you'd be hard pressed to find an *explicitly* consensual sexual interaction on tv
<eyJhb>
ashkitten: but are we talking consent education in GENERAL or as in "do not force people to have sex with you"?
<ashkitten>
i mean generally
<ldlework>
eyJhb: written consent is the only kind that's gonna work in court
<ashkitten>
there are other ways to pressure people into doing things
<ldlework>
just carry a condom AND a pen
<ldlework>

<eyJhb>
ashkitten: Yeah, that's true... It's just, there is occasions where consent, without trying, will "not happen"
<sphalerite>
ldlework: aw, sorry to hear that. Did you know there's medicine for that?
<ashkitten>
wow that card is heteronormative as hell O_O
<ldlework>
sphalerite: classic switcharoo
<infinisil>
You should use a consent token with an expiry date
<ldlework>
just get a stamp
<ldlework>
easier to stamp than sign in the heat of things
<sphalerite>
ink fingerprints
<ldlework>
this would make an effective political cartoon hehe
<eyJhb>

makefu: you need to put cloud in somewhere
<sphalerite>
eyJhb: oh, you mean _written_ consent?
<eyJhb>
Ahh, then how ? I might be misunderstanding !
<ashkitten>
why would you require written consent
<joepie91>
<freenode_sph "consent blockchain!"> someone has, unfortunately, already done this
<eyJhb>
Verbal is find as well
<eyJhb>
fine**
<ldlework>
it's the only consent that will stand up in course
<ashkitten>
ldlework: that's ridiculous on the courts' end, especially considering that giving consent once in written form doesn't mean you can't revoke it at any time
<makefu>
eyJhb: seems like reality went ahead of satire again
<ldlework>
ashkitten: that's what the stamp and pre-printed forms are for
<joepie91>
eyJhb: look at the guy's (because of course it's a guy) public comments about the criticisms, it's worse
<ashkitten>
ldlework: what?
<joepie91>
he doubled down on it
<ldlework>
ashkitten: you stamp as you go, with other stamps and forms for revocations
<ashkitten>
ldlework: and what happens when you want to revoke it and can't because the other person has taken the form away?
<ldlework>
that's theft
<ashkitten>
how can anyone prove it?
<ldlework>
you'll need a camera ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
<ldlework>
or a lawyer present
<ashkitten>
this is unproductive
<ashkitten>
i'm done here
<ldlework>
you'll want to ask your partner for consent first though
<sphalerite>
ldlework: so in future, I should only have sex with lawyers. Understood.
<ldlework>
(for which you'll need forms and stamps)
<eyJhb>
sphalerite: that seems okay to me, especially when at university
<sphalerite>
actually

I have a really simple solution

the grain of the lossless compression isn't as good as true lossless bits going over your gold-plated optical SPDIF connection

I dunno, ubiquity? The tool rips things as wav so there's no real reason for me not to offer those as output?
<sphalerite>
the size though!
<__monty__>
Imo there's also no reason to use mp3 and the only reason to prefer aac over opus is hardware compatibility. But I figure people might still *want* it. My tool *is* opinionated when it comes to bitrates and vbr though ; )
<__monty__>
Kinda conflicted myself tbh, I don't hear a difference between any of the formats so the number nut in me wants to save everything as opus. But the future proofing nut in me want to save everything as flac.

Cheap, somewhat good uptime, not logging every action

<joepie91>
eyJhb: right :P and how cheap is "cheap"?
<joepie91>
(in $/month)
<eyJhb>
I have no lower bounds, but cheaper than DO at 5 USD/month
<joepie91>
eyJhb: and are you looking for cheap in the sense of "few dollars per month", or in the sense of "more resources for your dollars"?
<eyJhb>
Few dollars a month ;) Nothing I will be running requires much. The "biggest" thing I run is my VPN
<joepie91>
right, ok
* joepie91
spinner.gif
<eyJhb>
Which is a 100 Mbit/s VPN basically, so nothing huge
<joepie91>
if you need very little resources, https://tinykvm.com/ is a cheap option, at $15/year (and a very reliable provider) -- however, those resources will NOT be enough to run NixOS
<joepie91>
the traffic limit may also be an issue

Should have added, NixOS is a requirement. Sorry!
<joepie91>
(a stripped-down Debian system will run fine on it though, for example)

BuyVM is an option, as you've already mentioned, though their stock is not always available
* joepie91
thinks
<joepie91>
RamNode is not an option, because $5/1GB RAM
<eyJhb>
Yeah, my only problem with BuyVM is the history of CONSTANT DDoS attacks (four times a day sometimes), and I have had a disc fail silently on me, which they didn't notice
<joepie91>
eyJhb: no first-hand experience, but I've recently heard good things about Hetzner: https://www.hetzner.com/cloud
<joepie91>
2.49 EUR/mo for 2GB RAM
<joepie91>
(I only have experience with their dedicated, not VPS)
<adisbladis>
Even their 2.49 EUR offering is pretty damn good
<joepie91>
(Hetzner network is quite good)
* adisbladis
is using irc from their 4.90 instance type
<adisbladis>
And doing builds on bare metal
<adisbladis>
Mostly a good experience
<eyJhb>
adisbladis: _only_ irc?
<eyJhb>
I have ever only had a dedicated server at hetzner, worked without a problem
<adisbladis>
eyJhb: Not _only_ irc :)
<eyJhb>
Might look at the joepie91 ! Thansk :D
<adisbladis>
More like "this message was written using a hetzner instance"
<eyJhb>
Are you running NixOS on it adisbladis ?
<eyJhb>
Ahh
<eyJhb>
Makes sense
<adisbladis>
eyJhb: Yeah
<adisbladis>
I used the kexec method to get nixos on it
<eyJhb>
Easy to install?
<joepie91>
eyJhb: OVH also offers a VPS with 2GB RAM (10GB SSD) for 3 EUR/mo
<joepie91>
hidden behind a million pages of ~cloud instances~ nonsense
<joepie91>
eyJhb: hm. actually, come to think of it
<joepie91>
if you use morph, you can probably get away with less RAM
<joepie91>
because it builds everything locally
<joepie91>
you just won't be able to do rebuilds on the machine directly
<joepie91>
that does present some caveats for recovery situations, ofc
<joepie91>
in that case, RamNode has 512MB RAM for $3/mo
<eyJhb>
Will have to look at it, I will probably need to fire up 3 VPS

Does anyone have an example of dead simple shell.nix for python? All I need is python with pylint/pytest/flake8.
<__monty__>
Thanks. I thought python3.withPackages returned a set with an env attribute I could just use?

Looking for a language pedant. "Moving mp3s to destination." Seems to work for s/mp3/wav|flac, somewhat for aac but not for opus. Help me form understandable plurals of each of these?
<__monty__>
opuss is the most problematic.
<__monty__>
I guess capitalizing works but that's so UGLY.
<samueldr>
moving $ext files to destination
<samueldr>
no way to twist your mind into making each extension work
<samueldr>
no need to*
<joepie91>
__monty__: the problem is that ${ext}s only works for genericized extensions
<joepie91>
ie. where the extension has become a self-sufficient noun for files of that type
<joepie91>
that's true for MP3, WAV, and FLAC (depending on circles) but not Opus
<joepie91>
it also won't be true for a lot of other formats that are more obscure from an end user perspective
<joepie91>
so yeah, what samueldr is the solution to that; don't use the extension as a noun, use it as a modifier *of* a noun ("files")
<joepie91>
what samueldr said*
<__monty__>
I don't like adding files though. Files are for nerds. ; )
<__monty__>
Went with "opus encodes", special cased it though because this is totally worth the code complexity >.> <.<
<joepie91>
'files' are for nerds, but 'encodes' are not? eh :P
<__monty__>
Obviously. Only words average windows users understand are for nerds : )
<samueldr>
when making interfaces, lying or lying by omission is a good way to ensure the user will not gain knowledge :^)
<hyperfekt>
I keep getting confused by the flakes proposal :< Somehow it's so many things at once.
<qyliss>
you and me both
<qyliss>
and I'm on the shepherding team ;)
<hyperfekt>
You have my condolences! :'D
<hyperfekt>
Currently watching the require.nix talk hoping to grok the bigger picture and now there's types D:
<hyperfekt>
My best guess atm is that it's basically a way to move what would currently be accomplished by import-from-fetchgit-derivation into Nix-the-tool?
<hyperfekt>
(i love types but that's like the 14th aspect of flakes and there's a size limit to the concepts my brain can work with)
<infinisil>
Wait flakes has types?
<infinisil>
I can't see anything other than the different "types"/kinds of flakes
<samueldr>
I think a typing scheme, and other features were talked about in the nixcon talk about flakes
<samueldr>
but the actual proposal is pared down compared; I think the other features for the future of nix are for later
