02:13:57 thanks everyone who helped decide whether to use a payment gateway 02:16:17 we're set up now so we'll probably be ready to add the farm to the merchants list some time soon-ish 02:16:24 :-) 02:18:33 nice 02:33:49 what are the bottlenecks when syncing? I have a 3950x, 150mbit/s symmetric internet connection, and a ssd with a 88SS9188 controller, but nothing seems to be saturated 02:42:22 boogerlad: what's your sync progress currently? 02:43:08 92500 blocks left after a couple hours. I'm not complaining, it's going much faster than what I read online (several days) 02:43:26 I'm just curious as to what the bottlenecks are 02:43:32 the last blocks are without checkpoints so they take longer 02:43:48 usually ssd read latency is bottleneck 02:45:15 interesting, so does that mean if I had did this in a ram drive or with an optane ssd, it would be significantly faster? 02:46:33 during verification a lot of historical tx / blocks have to be looked up, which is a lot of random reading, not sequential 02:46:44 yes should be faster, not sure if significant 02:47:42 it only takes multiple days with HDD 02:49:37 thank you for answering :) 03:00:33 is syncing / verification multithreaded? 03:09:22 as much as it can be 03:10:30 well, there's probably more optimizations to come boogerlad , but yeah, it downloads a chunk of stuff and then does what it can with the chunk, afaik. and i could be wrong 03:11:14 but based on the fundamental fact that if your transaction A references a transaction B from 10 blocks in the past, you need to process B before you can process A 03:11:21 process meaning verify 06:02:32 bros... I have an issue that isn't related to monero but 100s of thousands of dollars are on the line here 06:25:06 and it has to do with this tweet 06:25:08 https://twitter.com/ytyvy/status/1377767813394395139 06:25:14 which way is this dude facing 06:53:07 fwiptables is a script to configure a firewall 06:55:33 the account that posted it mentions donating in xmr 07:03:23 If only one of you gave Papa ChooChoo some TLC when I wrote a faster miner, instead of ignoring him, things could have happened differently https://np.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/5lsfgt/_/dbz0jnp/ 07:50:27 xmxpfwv don't leave us :( 07:51:03 also which idiot uses np.reddit links anyway 08:14:29 Does anybody know why monero links on html (a href="monero:...") doesn't work for cake wallet while they do on mymonero? 08:35:31 how would you expect them to work? Send third-party some coins on click without any confirmations? 08:36:22 just copy the address and paste it in your wallet 08:41:27 open a monero wallet 08:41:37 astreknet, that's a function of the OS 08:41:56 Or maybe a function of the browser... 08:42:13 Either way, you'd have to set it up to do it since it's still a non-standard 08:44:08 astreknet, you're talking about mymonero in the browser right? 08:55:32 no sending coins, opening the link from safari, or firefox on the wallet 08:56:40 as i said if you have muun or mymonero instaled on the device, the browser asks you if you want to open it in mymonero or muun 09:03:49 astreknet, https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/allowing_apps_and_websites_to_link_to_your_content/defining_a_custom_url_scheme_for_your_app 09:03:58 thanks 09:24:42 My testnet daemon is down from its usual 50 peers or so to 4 ... nobody running testnet daemons on this holy day, all people off to look for easter eggs? :) 09:29:32 don't you do that on the sunday? 09:31:42 can someone give me some advice on finding a person who has stolen between 129-1600 BTC. They run a fake exchange. I have... literal evidence of fraudulence. 09:33:01 The irony is the person who registered the ... domain name, a fake identity no doubt but the number correlates to an area of a whatsapp number from a person who did the actual stealing, I traced the transactions, from my foolish brothers' account to a 90 BTC account and then into a 1600 BTC account. However there are direct wallets that are quite large also connected to other fraudulent transfers. I'm just looking for advice. 09:33:02 in the same country as you? 09:33:09 haha nope US. 09:33:31 I'm quite amused because I recall Dread Pirate was extorted of 7022 BTC back in the day by his very victim/assassin. 09:33:51 This account which now has 1600 btc has had around 133 000 BTC pass through it. It seems like a disgruntled early adopter in my opinion. 09:34:52 i thought it was the (rogue?) fed agents that posed as the assassins? 09:35:23 haha no. the actual victim 09:35:26 "victim. ahem cough cough 09:35:58 "Actual victim" / scammer who rattled the living shit out of poor Dread... what a fool. I could smell it a mile away even before the VLOG revealed the facts. 09:40:02 anyway, only through legal means you can get the payment behind the domain exposed 11:21:46 i think the papa choochoo one is my favorite 11:21:52 good ol' papap choochoo 12:12:49 guys are there charity chans? 12:12:58 i got robbed of my savings which were like 12 btc 12:13:17 i need help or i cant finish my masters where can i find a philonthropist who will help me plz 12:16:00 my BTC address is bc1qm8x0cd0gmslxxp3ec08t5kzp3mte8qjpkc6779 12:16:11 please help i need around $14 000 to finish my studies. 12:16:36 i dont know where ti hep a scammer obbed my bro. of 16 000 GBP Im trying to track him but now he wont pay for my course anymore and i cannot afford the Honours 12:16:56 I need to get my PHD the next 7 years and have 0 help please can someone direct me to a chan where someone can help me. 12:17:49 I want to doa dissertation on psycholinguistics and the origin of language in comparison ( a synoptic analysis) to animal and synthetic language constructs I feel it could reveal much regarding human development. 12:18:25 I need around 14-15 grand .o fuck 12:21:00 dai klein perdjie gee nie meer om nie en het te veel holhare om 'n haar vir jou te gun, klarblyklik. 12:21:35 cool story bro 12:21:47 also it's a monero channel, so at least beg with a monero address :D 12:21:50 your story is cool too 12:21:52 hahaha 12:21:55 rich one 12:21:57 lol kayront 12:21:58 good point 12:22:10 i lost btc 12:22:13 12 btc 12:22:22 i am tracing a site which has over 16000 stolen BTC... 12:22:27 i mean 1600 12:22:38 one wallet has 129 stoeln, the next has 1600 12:23:02 directly from stolen trades 12:23:12 > savings 12:23:12 > BTC 12:23:12 Well there's your problem 12:23:29 1600 is a lot of btc its seen 133 000 + BTC that wallet. 12:23:33 i'm almost too afraid to ask how did you manage to lose 12 BTC 12:23:35 what do you mean, endoir? 12:23:44 I went othe local bar and gut smashed 12:23:47 nothing fancy, Kayront 12:24:07 my concern is my brother getting robbed of 16000GBP 3 years after 2014... 12:24:18 being rekt seems to run in the family 12:24:23 You don't put your savings in BTC, or any other crypto 12:24:24 during that epic 2017 dec pump n dump situation 12:24:34 whwere do u put them 12:24:47 you're tryling to profile me which is incorrect but edifying AND entertaining :) 12:24:51 appreciated 12:24:56 In anything less speculative and volatile 12:25:20 Dude nobody's gonna give you money here, move along 12:25:20 which is why you are here? hahaha ok 12:25:29 really why no 12:25:35 are you so greedy 12:25:57 or justified in your own self-owned private property - that ou are not willing to donate... 12:26:03 I'm here to contribute, not to speculate 12:26:18 can you suggest .

And congrats :) 14:15:41 it disappeard, seems to be my old balance :( 14:38:30 https://reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/micevf/would_you_like_to_be_able_to_use_bisq_to_buy/ 14:38:47 Please show support there if you’d like to see another KYC-free fiat on-ramp for Monero! 14:45:32 i'm all over this. one of the reasons i've not gotten deep into bisq 15:01:46 sethsimmons: Do you recall when I mentioned a cavalry charge in Brussels? https://images0.persgroep.net/rcs/PbyhI2eMpwQtIqYSoLdlH-7cKAc/diocontent/201530247/_fitwidth/1240?appId=93a17a8fd81db0de025c8abd1cca1279&quality=0.9 15:02:19 sethsimmons: Notice the guy getting run down by horses. 15:03:03 . . . or wait, that's a woman. 15:03:15 In any case, it's someone getting run down by a cavalry charge. 15:04:00 moments before: https://images0.persgroep.net/rcs/GG7BOWOJcKhtf73BCsVYZ5dVc2o/diocontent/201530245/_fitwidth/1240?appId=93a17a8fd81db0de025c8abd1cca1279&quality=0.9 15:04:11 gotta love Belgian "authorities" 15:08:17 got a taste of some democracy 15:17:53 demoncracy 15:43:44 "democracy" 15:43:53 Then populism walks in 16:15:39 apotheon: I live in Belgium too, what's the problem? 16:17:33 Btw, good example of how to wear a "mask" properly 16:19:03 Is gang rape democracy ? 16:27:15 Yes 16:29:27 mikoto-chan: I'm not sure what you're asking me. 16:33:08 apotheon: The picture you sent, where did you find it? 16:33:25 A friend in Belgium found it. 16:33:33 I think it's a frame from a video, but I'm not sure. 16:33:50 Ah, I live there too, very corrupt government but luckily I don't live in the bigger cities 16:34:21 All phone numbers are tied to your real ID to prevent "terrorism" 16:34:24 Friends in Belgium keep telling me about the insanity going on in Belgian politics and so on. 16:35:33 Where do you live? 16:35:53 I'll packing my stuff and moving as soon as I got my degrees. 16:37:02 I just heard someone in a video pronounce iOS as a two-syllable word rather than three letters. 16:37:29 I'm guessing that's not correct. The same person pronounced GNU as "G N U". 16:41:10 aye-yoss? 16:49:14 PapuaHardyNet: yep 16:54:00 Hey I'm looking through the logs and suddenly all the fire ice uk bots haven't been posting, when did that happen? 16:54:29 do you miss them already? 16:54:33 i thought I was the only one 16:56:49 Well it's like once you set up bots there's literally no additional effort needed to keep it going, why would he stop here then start his other attacks on the monero devs? like that's kinda weird, right? 17:01:40 One got past my /ignore rules just yesterday IIRC, they're still around. 17:01:49 Ahhhh 17:03:33 Ironically I've been thinking that the aggressor - community model increases the community's emotional resonance with the Monero project, as in by attacking Monero devs using dirty tactics, he increases community involvement and community sentiment positively overall. 17:03:56 We bond over attacks! 17:03:58 ;p 17:04:01 Some truth to it, yes 17:04:06 Every story needs a villain, right? 17:08:02 The most amazing thing to come out of the Monero community, I think, is the zero day Christmas day attacks. Like when Satoshi learned that wikileaks accepted Bitcoin, and another community member said "bring it on" Satoshi said "no, we're not ready for this, we assume we're not being attacked in most of the code, we're in early beta, we're not 17:08:03 ready for this" then he fucked off for all eternity. 17:08:03 But here is an example of a government paid entity attacking the Monero blockchain resulting in no down time and a stronger community because of it, and it's really one of the first examples of such a thing happening, other than like tor. 17:09:08 That's kind of fucking awesome. 17:12:14 We bond over attacks! 17:12:20 *cuddling intensifies* 17:17:40 WillSellBody4Xmr: It strengthens my attachment to Monero by prompting me to think about the substance of the attacks and, upon confirming they're basically crap, realizing that what I've learned as part of the exercise is actually positive toward Monero. 17:18:12 Some of the statements seem interesting at first glance, in a way, but investigating reveals that they're presented deceptively. 17:19:37 The "it" that strengthens my attachment is, of course, the campaign of spam-attacks. 17:21:54 Preaching to the choir. 17:22:32 Who's preaching? 17:26:08 It's an expression, means everyone is in agreement. 17:27:20 I know the expression, but it implies someone is trying to give people some kind of standard to follow, convince people of something, or someething along those lines, and I'm curious about who Mochi101 means is doing that. Preaching to the choir is basically trying to convince those very obviously already convinced. 17:28:41 You're reading too much into it apotheon 17:28:49 Don't worry, we're on the same team. 17:29:18 I'm going to guess by what you just said that you were addressing me. 17:29:23 . . . which is all I asked. 17:29:35 no 17:29:54 okay 17:29:58 I still have no idea, then. 17:30:28 It's ok, we've all been there. 17:48:07 nobody understands you Mochi101 17:48:55 mizz understood 18:31:14 is there a free and opensource ide for qt/qml? it's not clear to me if qt designer has a free version or just free trial 18:33:41 qt creator* 18:35:59 qt.io 18:38:02 could u paste the direct link? all I see is buy qt/try qt 18:38:13 thanks 18:48:54 sorry don't have it, can likely persue the site 19:22:38 n00b here, verified the Monero GUI wallet zip file and it doesn't match the hash 19:22:43 What am i doing wrong? 19:23:03 eell: post the exact command you used 19:23:38 I have \Desktop>certUtil -hashfile monero-gui-win-x64-v0.17.1.9.zip 19:23:50 you need SHA256 19:24:06 add SHA256 to the end of the command like in the tutorial 19:25:41 wow ok. i really am that dumb. this is why there is privacy-by-default xD 19:25:46 thanks 19:26:24 a lot of people seem to overlook that :D 19:43:46 which one is a miner? monerod or monero wallet cli? monerod and wallet cli both take background mining related arguments 19:44:51 the wallet can tell the daemon to mine 19:46:45 what happens if im connected to a remote node like node.moneroworld.com, would it mine on their server? 19:50:14 if they left their setting open it would 19:50:25 That's why they'd set --restricted-rpc 20:52:29 .faucet 20:52:30 strike: First nu​mber in 69 20:52:33 6 20:52:33 strike: @bonuspot tipped 0.0000016 XMR to strike [775921c1] Wait ≈23 hrs 54 min before trying again. @bonuspot: 0.01223058 21:34:07 working on a PR to my docker-monero-node project to setup tor hidden services out of the box: https://github.com/lalanza808/docker-monero-node/pull/4 21:34:17 if anyone wants to test... :) 21:57:38 Anyone else having problems with Monero and Trezor hw wallet on Arch? It seems to crash when there is a need to interact with the hw device, but the official AppImage works fine 22:06:22 Could be https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/7336, merged about a month ago. 22:35:52 as far as I understand it the official release works but the arch repository binary does not work 22:51:53 For reference I just did this myself using Docker Compose, might be useful to you: 22:52:55 Just exposing RPC as a HiddenService, though, not p2p etc. 23:23:58 hey I'm wondering what's the most comfy way to aqcuire monero without having to do kyc (which defeats the purpose ofc) 23:24:53 crypto atms are nice but not always reliable 23:26:00 Maybe bisq. Or sideshift or a few others of that kind. 23:28:59 mining maybe??? 23:30:10 Zichi: probably only profitable by joining a pool? might be a good idea tho 23:30:56 you won't make much but it is something 23:31:12 maybe the mining is not the solution 23:31:24 im not looking to earn crypto 23:31:30 but move fiat into xmr 23:31:40 already earnt fiat* 23:32:19 and also its not something like i have a bag of dollars ready to go, rather contemplating a stable routine for the future 23:34:44 like as in, say i want to save 50 dollars every month on a xmr account 23:36:53 fiat to crypto generally requires kyc 23:37:09 there is localmonero 23:39:26 yeah i know 23:39:54 wouldn't it be nice that you could buy crypto gift cards with fiat ;-) 23:43:12 k3LV1n, you can see the effort/capital requirement of mining as the price to pay to avoid the 'kyc' fascist nonsense. It might be worth it as long as you don't lose too much. 23:44:46 ive had that thought too, but there must be comfier ways to rebel :D i remember times before kyc (had funds frozen a few times..) 23:45:50 im sure many are against kyc , so i was wondering I wasn't missing any businesses that might found a way around it and making it their USP 23:47:15 i also had the though to start a webshop and earn crypto, not fiat 23:48:12 that would be great 23:48:13 these bitpay kinda services, dont to kyc on customers who pay fiat do they? 23:48:30 so what if you buy your own stuff with fiat and earn crypto :p 23:49:18 im sure, if it would work it would already exist tho 23:56:39 k3LV1n: In the US, at least, crypto ATMs are KYC anyway. 23:57:31 23:31 < k3LV1n> but move fiat into xmr 23:58:27 Mining is moving fiat into XMR by way of electricity. In fact, you're taking out a loan and paying it back with negative interest, generally, because the value of your USD is likely to drop ever so slightly between use of electricity and paying the electric bill. 23:58:57 good point, i didn't look at it that way 23:59:15 That's only because you're not as weird as me. 23:59:35 :-) 23:59:42 I also come up with crazy ideas like "It turns out that cryptocoins are actually reputational tokens earned by people who perform work for the good of the community."
