05:05:52 <marmulak[m]> monero is good but hard to sync
05:20:40 <niocbrrrrrr> !tip marmulak[m] 1 SSD
05:22:18 <marmulak[m]> You are too kind
05:24:00 <marmulak[m]> I have a little box with an SD card for storage. Trying that and it's going alright actually, but it is tight on ram. Much experimentation later it seems the best I can do to control its memory use it limiting the network transfer rate.
05:24:54 <niocbrrrrrr> SD card does not last as long as a ssd
05:26:27 <niocbrrrrrr> I've heard of them wearing out in a couple of years with that type of use
05:26:47 <niocbrrrrrr> still want to sync from scratch on my good machine to see what it will do
07:53:06 <marmulak[m]> niocbrrrrrr: I figured a large block chain once written to the disk will stay hopefully mostly static (of course with updates to the db), I thought perhaps the SD card would get full sooner than it would fail from too many writes
07:57:09 <marmulak[m]> But anyway with this box in particular not much else I can do but will just keep a backup and replace the SD card whenever it fails
11:35:46 <hyc> should last 2-3 years anyway
13:14:12 <guernsey> hello
13:16:18 <guernsey> can anyone explain what kind of check is here (!m_hardfork->check(bl)
13:43:20 <UkoeHB_> guernsey: sounds like it's checking if the block matches current hardfork version
15:51:10 <d4ndo[m]> 1 XMR ~ 1g of gold.
16:55:39 <d4ndo[m]> But i wouldn't recommend to buy 1 piconero of gold.
