[07:02:40] <orbitarchius52> Something seems to be broken with this site, and I think it is chromas.

[10:31:28] <chromas> One hundred million wingwangs to the person who gets into the kernel a switch to allow killing D processes
[10:44:55] systemd_ is now known as \
[11:16:17] -!- \ has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[11:44:43] <fab23> chromas: it will never happen, as processes in disk wait never will be stoppable. The only cure is a forced reboot.
[11:45:58] <chromas> Right, so I'll give lots and lots of fake internet moneys to someone who manages to get a feature into the kernel allowing them to be killable
[11:47:46] <chromas> I haven't seen any legitimate reason to make them unkillable
[11:48:05] <chromas> oh noes! a file might get corrupted! same thing that would happen with a force reboot anyway
[11:48:32] <Ingar> i'd rather be able to kill the process, unmount the disk and check it
[11:48:39] <Ingar> good morning chromas
[11:48:49] <fab23> It is because at that moment the process itself does not have the control and is waiting for response from the disk driver.
[11:48:56] <Ingar> and fab23
[11:49:04] <chromas> in my case...this time ;) ...I tried rendering with the GPU while stable diffusion was running and that borked both python and blender
[11:49:09] <chromas> g'day Ingar, fab23
[11:49:32] <fab23> Its already lunch time here :)
[11:49:46] <Ingar> I'm on sunday rythmn
[11:49:52] * fab23 too
[11:49:56] <janrinok> Have just finished my lunch - and hello to Ingar and fab23 too!
[11:50:10] <Ingar> hello janrinok !
[11:50:37] <janrinok> I've been away in the UK for the last month - but I am glad to be home again!
[11:50:44] <fab23> :)
[11:50:51] <chromas> almost 4 in the morning here; about 6 Fahrenheits outside. That's -🐿️ in metric
[11:51:21] * fab23 goes to get his awakening espresso :)
[11:51:25] <Ingar> we had a few days of icecold clear weather, but it has reverted to the usual drab now
[11:51:46] <chromas> the process may not have control, but the kernel does, and the kernel should be able to murder anything it wants
[11:51:49] <Ingar> did snap some fancy images though!
[11:51:54] <chromas> noice
[11:52:17] <Ingar> http://ingar.intranifty.net
[11:52:26] <janrinok> yep, the clear but cold nights has to be good for something...
[11:52:53] <chromas> does that mean the shutter was open for 6½ hours?
[11:52:54] <janrinok> that is a long exposure time!
[11:53:24] <fab23> Ingar: who is the ghost on the right side? :)
[11:53:29] <Ingar> chromas: it's a combination of 41 300 sec exposures
[11:53:49] <janrinok> 5 minute exposures are not to be sniffed at either!
[11:53:56] <Ingar> fab23: it's the dark silouhette of aristarchus, blocking the nice red glow of the soylent nebula
[11:54:05] <janrinok> lol
[11:54:08] <fab23> :)
[11:55:42] <Ingar> janrinok: the trick is to have a second, small camera, which tracks the starmotion and rotates your machinery accordinlgy. otherwise there's no way to get a stable 5 minute exposure

[11:56:38] <Ingar> (well, there is, but at a price)
[11:57:15] <Ingar> today I should do computers though
[11:57:21] <Ingar> got my hands and the raspberry pi 5 !
[11:57:26] <Ingar> *on the
[11:59:55] <janrinok> who wrote the software? Yourself or is it available online?
[11:59:59] <fab23> .oO( the new SN Soylent Nebula )
[12:01:53] <Ingar> janrinok: there are a number of softwares available, FOSS and other. most notable NINA on windows and kstars/EKOS
[12:02:38] <Ingar> I do raspberry/linux/kstars
[12:03:10] <Ingar> it's one of those programs where at first, you feel like you got dropped in Houston mission control
[12:03:18] <janrinok> :)
[12:04:18] <janrinok> can you leave it running without having to do anything, or do you have to manage it all during the 6.5 hours?
[12:05:39] <Ingar> Setup is manual, I need to polar align and focus, and not forget to take the cap off. but after that it's putting in a sequence and it just runs
[12:06:04] <Ingar> e.g. those 6.5 hours was over two nights
[12:06:31] <janrinok> for a moment I had visions of you standing outside wrapped in multiple layers of clothing cursing between shots!
[12:06:46] <Ingar> janrinok: well you aren't far off
[12:07:03] <Ingar> setup can take an hour, two hours depending on what I need to do
[12:07:08] <janrinok> of course, you have NEVER forgotten to take the lens cap off.....
[12:07:33] <Ingar> tbh, the lens cap, not so much. the focussing mask on the other hand.. all the time :-D
[12:08:07] <janrinok> the pictures are worth your effort. Do you share them on an internet site, either your own or someone else's?
[12:08:42] <Ingar> I mostly put them on social media
[12:08:52] <Ingar> I should write a website for them... but lazyness
[12:08:56] <janrinok> You could have told me that the image has been taken by Hubble and I would have believed you!
[12:10:12] <Ingar> :)
[12:10:41] <janrinok> lazyness? Nah, we all have the problem of too much to do and too little time.
