01:49:05 <fibonacci> Where's Ricky Ricardo?
04:56:19 <mmxxx[m]> ?
04:56:20 <mmxxx[m]> who is ricky ricardo
05:15:16 <Dean_Guss> a cuban conga drummer
05:15:57 <riceandbeans> sigh, I hate how I forget to sync the daemon sometimes and I fall behind and it takes forever to catch up, I'm 119 days behind because I lost track
05:16:34 <riceandbeans> Also good god I feel old because you don't know who Ricky Ricardo is
05:16:46 <riceandbeans> That was my childhood
05:18:18 <Dean_Guss> riceandbeans yes and it seems the newest gui crashes (at least when using a remote node and far behind)
05:18:40 <Dean_Guss> I had to revert to the previous version
05:18:43 <riceandbeans> GUI? I don't do GUIs so I don't even know.
05:18:53 <riceandbeans> What happened?
05:19:25 <Dean_Guss> It crashed multiple times with hundreds of thousands of blocks to go
05:19:32 <Dean_Guss> using a remote tor node
05:20:08 <Dean_Guss> Whatev.  problem solved for now :)
05:20:38 <Dean_Guss> but ya I agree the cli is the way to go.  Monero's api is fun
05:20:54 <Dean_Guss> even funner than bitcoin's
06:11:27 <riceandbeans> I just like to live in the terminal in general
06:38:11 <mmxxx[m]> terminal is easier tbh
06:38:13 <mmxxx[m]> simpler
06:58:13 <d4ndo[m]> https://postimg.cc/67dpPDRC
06:58:35 <d4ndo[m]> A lot of transactions are done at 3:00 am.
06:58:44 <d4ndo[m]> CET that is.
07:00:20 <d4ndo[m]> From 01-01-2019 until now.
07:01:18 <syntax_> I'd appreciate some recommendations for exchanges. I currently use Coinbase but I'm increasingly wary of it and looking for better alternatives (at the same time I'd really like to avoid going through the same typical verification process. I'd like a reliable, safe way to buy XMR anonymously, but I know this is almost impossible if you're not willing to send cash in the post.
07:03:11 <d4ndo[m]> syntax_: cash deposit on localmonero works fine.
07:03:29 <d4ndo[m]> If you live in the EU
07:05:45 <syntax_> I like the idea of it, I'm just not sure I'd want to risk it. I guess the safest way is to buy as little as possible until you can trust the seller...
07:05:49 <d4ndo[m]> The tradeing partner sends you a barcode. You can use it on your smart phone to make a cash deposit in the super market. rewe, dm etc.
07:06:14 <d4ndo[m]> Pretty anonymous - if you ask me.
07:06:38 <syntax_> thanks for the tip
07:10:16 <d4ndo[m]> The cashier thinks you send some money on your own debit card. So he/she assumes he knows your identity. They never check for counterfeilt money. I paid with 200 EUR. They dont care.
07:10:59 <d4ndo[m]> Usualy the freak out if you pay with 200 EUr
07:11:35 <syntax_> I wanted to try buying with prepaid cards (bought from stores), with fake billing details etc., but then a lot of sellers require selfies etc.
07:12:43 <d4ndo[m]> Yes - it is a pain.
07:16:12 <d4ndo[m]> Same thing with sim cards. KYC is needed for sim cards.
07:17:28 <syntax_> I'm wondering if it's worth just staying with Coinbase if only to avoid going through the same awful verification steps with some other exchange. I can't seem to find any cash trades on LocalMonero based in my country...
07:20:52 <d4ndo[m]> You could try Bisq.
07:21:15 <d4ndo[m]> But it only does BTC <-> XMR
07:21:24 <d4ndo[m]> And fiat to BTC
07:23:38 <syntax_> do you know what the account setup / verification steps require?
07:24:03 <d4ndo[m]> On Bisq?
07:24:14 <d4ndo[m]> There is non.
07:24:26 <syntax_> ah yes, decentralised, just opened their site and saw that
07:24:35 <syntax_> thanks
07:25:12 <iizegrim[m]> Hi ... any tech here? Anyone use or tried mms?
07:26:00 <iizegrim[m]> ... or multisig in general?
07:26:13 <d4ndo[m]> m&m's
07:32:26 <selsta> Dean_Guss: any more info regarding crash? Which OS?
07:32:34 <selsta> Which remote node did you use?
07:32:46 <selsta> Will try to reproduce
08:05:59 <d4ndo[m]> Median Transactions on the hour: https://postimg.cc/67dpPDRC
08:07:18 <d4ndo[m]> > 300 txs/h @ 3:00am
08:07:54 <d4ndo[m]>  *  greater 300 txs/h @ 3:00am
08:09:00 <d4ndo[m]> Probably a lot of people buying weed on the darknet at 3 am.
08:09:00 <sech1> what time zone is this "3am"?
08:09:15 <d4ndo[m]> CET
08:10:01 <sech1> it's probably minerxmr payouts (they're made every 24 hours)
08:10:06 <sech1> it's 13k miners there
08:10:31 <d4ndo[m]> ah ok
08:13:47 <d4ndo[m]> But it is sort of a unified distribution. So Monero is adopted world wide.
08:27:01 <d4ndo[m]> not adopted it is »used« world wide.
08:51:25 <d4ndo[m]> https://decrypt.co/31552/pentagon-war-game-generation-z
08:53:58 <d4ndo[m]> The Pentagon is planing a wargame since 2018. In that scenario the GenZ will steal moneay from big coorps and banks and transfer the wealth to Bitcoin and GenZ. ^^
08:54:27 <d4ndo[m]> Move it out of the system so to say.
08:56:11 <d4ndo[m]> Another link https://stockshours.com/2020/06/08/pentagon-war-game-envisioned-a-generation-z-rebellion-funded-by-bitcoin/
08:58:04 <d4ndo[m]> For that to happen GenZ has to stop using Apple products.
09:00:16 <d4ndo[m]> Start using Open source hard and software. Build up mesh networks.
09:17:46 <charolastra> “Zbellion”
09:18:19 <d4ndo[m]> Yes. #Zbellion.
09:18:48 <charolastra> it's not like those dollars disapear. they are just transfered somewhere else
09:19:41 <d4ndo[m]> It is a wealth redistribution - sort of.
09:20:41 <charolastra> bunch of boomers who lost contact with reality ...
09:21:19 <versionsix> you don't need to be a boomer to lose contact with reality
09:21:34 <d4ndo[m]> XD
09:21:42 <charolastra> right, but the chances are much higher when you're an old fuck
09:22:51 <d4ndo[m]> I wouldn't say that. You are not willing to learn as much - when you are old.
09:23:15 <charolastra> exactly. a lot of people stagnate
09:24:00 <d4ndo[m]> A lot of Boomer don't like computer. They do  NOT understand them
09:24:27 <charolastra> and for boomers that stagnation happened long before cryptocoins were on the horizon. those are the people that had issues setting the clock on their VCRs
09:24:53 <d4ndo[m]> ^^
09:25:31 <versionsix> so these boomers ignored to use the digital media when the paper legacy transition system was still active
09:26:12 <versionsix> when they let go of the transition system boomers get mad that they can't use the paper transition system anymore
09:26:37 <d4ndo[m]> But a lot of the boomer have great people skills. They use that to control the GenZ. But the power shifts into the digitasl world.
09:27:20 <versionsix> ever spoken to a GenZ in person, they are totally different individually compared when in group
09:27:52 <d4ndo[m]> ok
09:29:13 <d4ndo[m]> Didn't notice that.
09:36:58 <d4ndo[m]> Ok- I am admin now in the irc channel #zbellion
09:37:23 <d4ndo[m]> I created the channel
09:38:52 <charolastra> do zoomers use IRC?
09:39:20 <d4ndo[m]> No - They use Tik Tok.
09:39:50 <charolastra> right, it was a rethoric question
09:40:31 <d4ndo[m]> I think GenX uses IRC- don't they?
09:40:59 <d4ndo[m]> And GenY
09:41:29 <charolastra> sure. what are you?
09:41:53 <d4ndo[m]> I'm somewhere inbetween
09:45:18 <d4ndo[m]> What  are you?
09:47:04 <philogy> ?
09:48:01 <charolastra> just old enough to remember reality before 9/11
09:50:19 <d4ndo[m]> 9/11 was the birth of the surveillance state.
09:55:50 <Inge-> Zbellion!
09:56:19 <d4ndo[m]> XD.
10:02:39 <d4ndo[m]> 2025 zbellion
10:10:57 <Steven_M> Hi all, can monerod be set up to run through tor?
10:11:44 <asymptotically> Steven_M: https://github.com/monero-project/monero/blob/master/ANONYMITY_NETWORKS.md
10:17:14 <Steven_M> asymptotically: thanks, I think I'll use it once it's out of the experimental stage.
10:30:47 * Steven_M has to sleep
11:08:47 <magnum90> hello
11:20:37 <magnum90> when genesis is started with block number +0 new chain dont start
11:20:57 <magnum90> if genesis start with block 0 everything is ok
11:21:57 <magnum90> strange because there is code that fulfill this choice
11:26:03 <azy> onion-monero-blockchain-explorer, @ api/outputsblocks, do you get to see the specific subaddress/integrated address xmr is being sent to? i dont see anything like either listed in the example results
13:56:52 <fibonacci> Everyone please stop spamming the channel. This one is for silence
14:10:15 <binaryFate> lol
14:44:37 <endor00[m]> Ah yes, that's what modern communication tools were made for: silence...
14:59:59 <KrishnAncap[m]> hi
15:00:21 <KrishnAncap[m]> what do you think the "average non-crypto normie" would think about monero?
15:05:59 <d4ndo[m]> Nerds.
15:24:06 <endor00[m]> ^ +1
15:51:34 <moneromooo> They'd most likely think whatever it is is the prevalent view in the media.
18:30:02 <Copenhagen_Bram> So what will kovri be like?
18:30:24 <Copenhagen_Bram> Will Kovri work on Tails OS?
18:34:32 <riceandbeans> When upgrading wallet cli and daemon across versions, is there anything to be aware of? Are there any upgrade procedures or just change the binaries and you're done?
18:40:13 <selsta> riceandbeans: updating the binaries is all you have to do
18:49:55 <d4ndo[m]> Just for fun: https://postimg.cc/67dpPDRC
18:51:14 <d4ndo[m]> Median transaction on the hour.
19:10:10 <riceandbeans> selsta: That's kind of what I thought, I guess I'll kill the daemon and start the new one later today
19:16:30 <riceandbeans> I need a better way to mine :\
