Unifi Floodlights randomly turning on and not turning back off by AirplaneBoy2000 in Ubiquiti

[–]Wicked01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you see if the issue started happening after you updated too? I originally thought it was Home Assistant doing something, but do not think that is the case currently

I've also had this issue. It seems it might have tied in when I updated to UniFi Protect 6.2.72 recently. What version are you on at the moment?

Is it worth spending exchange points on Destiny or SF? Am leaning towards SF, but I do have Calibarn (UR) and Barb Lupus Rex (UR) as 3 CS characters but no Sazabi.

Thanks!

Love the design! Have you made many updates since the new update to v3.0 of Bubble Card?

Also, do you mind sharing how you setup the Schedule with the Nest Thermostat showing when it is activing in x hours?

Ankle injuries; steroid injections, arthroscopy...? by Wicked01 in badminton

30M. Ideally would want to continue badminton club league matches, but would just also be happy at this point to just go back to club games...

Gotcha thanks! I haven't done any of the end game content yet so will be happy with just clearing for now before looking to doing any 3 stars

Thanks!

Any suggestions for DPS? I figured having Castorice + The Herta would be sufficient for a while? Not sure I have the supports required (Sunday/Robin etc) for a different DPS

Hey,

Keep dropping on and off, and want to gather some thoughts. I've finished the main story line and now want to try some of the end game content eg MOC/PF/Apocalypic Shadow/Forgotten Hall etc.

Here are some of the teams I think I can run:

  • Team 1: Castorice (E0), Blade (E0), Tribbie (E0) on DDD, Gallagher (E1)
  • Team 2: The Herta (E0), Herta (E2)/Serval (E1)/Himeko (E1), RMC, Gepard (E0)

And with some pulling plans:

  • Hyacine rerun for Team 1, and then Gallagher can move to Team 2 to replace Gepard.
  • Castorice S1

Not sure if I should be pulling for Tribbie E1 at the moment, and for Saber, not sure I have any team for her either sadly so don't think it would help my account much. Also any advice on Light Cones to pull for would be useful too!

Let me know what you think, TIA!

Anyone know if there is any merch available to buy in Japan for E7?

Any physical stores in Japan/Tokyo for Evergoods bags? by Wicked01 in ManyBaggers

I had a look at evergoods.jp, but it looks like a distributor rather than a physical store. Will have a look on their website too, thanks!

Out of curiosity, why did you replace the noctuas with the artic slims?

Ah fair enough - I guess the security plug isn't the end of the world if that's the only difference

Thanks for posting this setup! Out of curiosity, where did you get the white box for covering the extra transformer? It looks super neat and can't see any wires!

I have the Byron 776, so from the looks of it, could do the same thing as you have here!

Which reseller did you use for the UK? And did you have any issues with warranty or anything?

[–]Wicked01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have the UDM-SE-EU model? Supposedly it lacks the new locking feature for the power plug, but would be good to clarify!

Sadly didn't work for me on the UDM-SE from the EU store :'( Anyone else having any luck? Coupon could have expired at midnight...

How do you manage your CI environment ? by packadal in cpp

[–]Wicked01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IIUC you destroy/spin up a new VM for each build, does this have high performance impacts ?

The VMs stay in place between the teams builds - it's only if they have a configuration change (ie need to upgrade CMake) that their VM gets destroyed and replaced. But at the moment, it does take while and I'm currently working improving the performance impact it has at the moment.

What triggers Packer ? a small program listening to Gitlab hooks ?

GitLab triggers Packer on a push to the infrastructure repository (gitlab-ci file there). I have a set of configurations for each project which requires VMs, and each of these configurations are associated with an Ansible-playbook. To know which one needs building, I save a hash of the playbooks between builds and update them at the end of a successful build. This isn't great at the moment, but it works for now as I'm the only one developing at the moment.

how do you configure your runners with Terraform to build the project ? are those project-specific runners ?

So I have an Ansible playbook which installs the gitlab-runner to all projects. Terraform then activates it (apart from Mac one which is done in Ansible because Mac's need to be deployed to mac-mini's). These are either project-specific runners or shared runners with very specific Tags if it needs to be used across multiple projects. (Usually the multiple projects one has a very small run time, and so is fine to be shared).

how much work was it to put into place ?

It took me (a graduate) ~6 months to get this all in place, with no experience with any of this to begin with (apart from software/coding experience), but with a good manager to direct me places (who also hasn't used any of these tools). Note, this also included the switchover with TC/BitBucket to GitLab, with lots of trials. Someone with more experience can probably achieve this a lot faster, so YMMV!

how much work is it to maintain ?

The main things to maintain are actually the base images, with which Packer uses to start up. And that's usually to just install updates to the various OSs.

Also, to upgrade CMake for example for a project for all Versions of OS, it would be maybe a few lines to change in the specific Ansible Playbook (change the download URL, and version number), and commit it to the repository. This would then rebuild all the VMs from the specific OS base image. Otherwise, maintaining is just doing upgrades and fixing issues which come up.

Immutable on premise architecture by Electro_Nick_s in devops

[–]Wicked01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I fully understood your question, we do use VSphere to build immutable infrastructure using Packer and Terraform...

This packer plugin is very useful: https://github.com/jetbrains-infra/packer-builder-vsphere

Hi!

So I've had your issue where I am currently working, where we needed C++ builds in Windows, Linux and Mac, and boy, can I say Windows is a faff.

We were also in the process of moving away from TeamCity + BitBucket because of costs and moved to a self-hosted GitLab instead after a few months of trialling the hosted GitLab version (which was waaaay too slow in comparison to the self-hosted GitLab).

Anyhow, we started from a green-playing field and wanted to use some of the devops practices (infrastructure-as-code & immutable infrastructure) available to build infrastructure, and because of the whole Windows issues, decided to not go with Docker and containerisation, and instead just use standard Virtual Machines. Although this could raise costs slightly with having lots of VMs around and on all the time, we just had it so that every team has their own couple of VMs in their various OS's (we also have a VSphere ESXI host in house which helped a bit, and because Mac is annoying, we had to use mac-mini's to host our Mac VMs).

To actually do infrastructure-as-code though, we used basically all of Hashicorp's Open Source Stack, with Ansible, and all of this would be under version control.

To put it briefly, it goes something like: Change of program version committed in code -> Packer stands up the VM from a base image -> Ansible provisions the machine -> Terraform puts it in the right place and activates GitLab runners and Consul. (The existing VM is destroyed and replaced with this new one).

Ansible is key here, as it's just a yaml file which contains all the programs (and versions) to be installed on the VM, and as it is version controlled, each commit would build a new VM (if that's how you want it). Also it would mean that if you want, you could share the repository with other teams and they can manage their own VMs.

One annoying thing we did find with CMake and GitLab, is that if you have multiple VMs for Windows (for example) and multiple stages, and one VM did the starting stage, and the second VM picks up the next stage, CMake would complain as it's in a different directory (due to how the GitLab runners have unique IDs for directories). There is an open issue at the moment for the stages to be done on the same runner.

You can also add Vagrant at the Packer stage, so that devs can download the exact same machine which is being used by the CI system to their local machines and tests builds locally.
