chronod on Mac – High CPU Use & Network Access Requests Explained
Some Mac users occasionally discover the ‘chronod’ process in MacOS is either consuming a large amount of system resources, or is requesting access to network connections. Sometimes chronod is flagged by overly zealous anti-virus apps as well. While there are plenty of people who ignore this kind of thing, another curious type of Mac user … [Read More](https://osxdaily.com/2024/07/25/chronod-on-m … ⌘ Read more

@prologic@twtxt.net @abucci@anthony.buc.ci my /tmp is fine now, no avatars there. I have to drive my daughter to a birthday party now, but I keep things running and I’ll check when I get back.
@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no / @abucci@anthony.buc.ci My current working theory is that there is an asshole out there that has a feed that both your pods are fetching with a multi-GB avatar URL advertised in their feed’s preamble (metadata). I’d love for you both to review this PR, and once merged, re-roll your pods and dump your respective caches and share with me using https://gist.mills.io/
@prologic@twtxt.net I got it working, I reinstalled go under home (instead of where go wiki tells me to install it), and pointed to that, as well as the variables you mentioned, that enabled me to compile it. deleted the old yarnd , and made sure I run the new one.
Thanks for the help (as always :) ).
@prologic@twtxt.net hm, I installed latest go (vps did not have that intalled), I then did make deps, then make server, when I use the last command it said minify was not installed, I assumed minify package was the one to get, but it fails with that. (debian).
@prologic@twtxt.net Ok, good to know. So the issue is the same ‘avatar in tmp’ issue filling up the disk. I did not check the dates on the avatars there, but it worked fined earlier yesterday, and was full today, so it seems to be the same issue mentioned earlier on here. I’ll keep an eye on it. I have not updated yarnd for a while, so I run v 0.15.1.
@prologic@twtxt.net hm, it seems to be full disk that’s the issue, same problem with the avatar in tmp it seems that’s mentioned earlier here. I deleted them now. I regained 33% space (9GB).
@prologic@twtxt.net hm, okay, not sure what to do with it though. If I remember correct - I’ve just forwarded the subdomain to yarnd’s port - and that’s it.
This is the config:
`server {
server_name yarn.stigatle.no;
location / {
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;
proxy_redirect off;
}`
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org hm, that’s weird, not sure what’s going on there to be honest.
