[RSS] Random BSODs on ASRock Z170 Extreme4: Fixed by Disabling CPU C-States

I recently had to deploy a change to #Debian Code Search to limit the amount of memory used during indexing a single package — because of #Firefox, which now ships as 388_859 files, totaling 1.78 GB! The resulting search index is 2.76 GB. Doing this entire indexing in one go is just too much for typical servers.

So now we flush into intermediate index files and merge them in the end: https://github.com/Debian/dcs/commit/8e76d5b9408cd12cfb6b728c1f1f3a96a9775310

The resulting drop in max heap usage is nicely visible on the graph by now :)

@n_dimension @cstross "any large family gathering will contain 2-3 human spam generators the will jibber-jabber nonsensical human-like speech constantly." - I'm so glad I'm not the only one with this feeling! :D On the other hand human intelligence was never properly defined. IMO shifting goalposts here indicate that we have an improved, yet still incomplete understanding about how intelligence may be defined, rather than dismissing intelligence because we don't like the looks of it.

But then I discovered https://github.com/builtbybel/Winslop. A tiny tool helped a lot in disabling all of that crap. Nice and simple and it gave me a feeling of control. Thank you Belim! :)

(Yes, this is a lesson in empathy with the user and pretty much accidentally a metaphor that somehow connects to my employer and their main product. No, I will not take any further questions.

P.S. I would prefer arkenfox as a config system over any kind fork)

Really, no one?

@pinkflawd Some ransomware would be a great addition to @cfgbot don't you think @tmr232 ?

@freddy if I understand correctly this is not even a fix, but a workaround for non-compliant behavior for a large enough site?

@freddy move fast and fix things!

@320x200 @qaris @hobbs Thank you!

@320x200 Could you please ELI5 for me what a "permacomputing collective" is? This brewing metaphor is cool but a bit too abstract for me to imagine what is happening in such a group.

Part of the reason of every service turning shit is that some technical writers assume that shit can only ever run on k8s...
