03:14:24 <Inge-> "MRL researcher not impressed by HALO2 announcement,  Needs more implementation and fewer press release s"
06:34:18 <nodlr> What should I set my max incoming/outgoing connections to? I have 150/10 megabits on a fibre -> ISP -> cable
07:02:13 <dEBRUYNE> nodlr: Do you intent to run the node 24/7?
07:58:37 <alexanarcho[m]> When is the next Monero Space Meet?
09:27:41 <binaryFate> <selsta> binaryFate: please update xmr.to testnet node infra to latest master, we forked the testnet to CLSAG <-- ack thanks will do
11:40:47 <azy> is there a best practice to backing up my chain? just cp .bitmonero somewhere?
11:41:24 <moneromooo> If you have the space, can't hurt. Either do it when monerod is down, or use mdb_copy.
11:42:05 <moneromooo> I have a feeling mdb_copy might not quite work with custcom compare functions so cp :)
12:07:37 <Polemos_> Hi everyone
12:08:29 <Polemos_> i am in the process of recovering my wallet into a fresh install /comp
12:09:07 <Polemos_> I overwrote the database from another computer so I do not have to redownload the whole blockchain
12:10:10 <Polemos_> In the process of recovery, do I have to specify a blockheight or set the pat to the blockchain somewhere else than the default location ?
12:10:16 <Polemos_> Thanks in advance
12:10:55 <selsta> If you restore your wallet it is recommended to set a restore height / restore date.
12:11:08 <moneromooo> A blockheight will speed up early wallet sync, as long as it's not past your first tx for that wallet. 0 is safest.
12:11:10 <selsta> If you have the blockchain in the default location you do not have to set the path.
12:12:30 <Polemos_> thanks guys, beign the restore height just the date of today I understand?
12:13:41 <selsta> no, the a date that was before you first received a transactino
12:14:03 <selsta> so e.g. 2020-07-01 if you first received Monero in July 2020
12:15:01 <Polemos_> I see selsta thanks, I do not recall frankly. I have been using Monero for a while now
12:15:33 <Polemos_> I would need to check that from the other comp where I installed Monero for the first time
12:15:37 <selsta> Approximately
12:15:52 <selsta> e.g. 2016-01-01 if you know it was sometime in 2016
12:15:59 <selsta> else just enter 0 as restore height but this will take longer
12:17:52 <Polemos_> thanks selsta I understand now
12:52:52 <anicow> zcash is boo boo!!!
12:53:03 <anicow> tell groceryboy i said it!

18:04:08 <ponga2112> not cool: https://downloads.monero.org/
18:06:37 <moneromooo> What's on it ? It gets rejected due to old cert here.
18:06:59 <dsc_> That subdomain is empty, but monero[dot]org/downloads shows downloads, version 0.11
18:07:08 <moneromooo> If you're thinking this is our site, it's not. Not sure if it's that or not.
18:07:28 <moneromooo> getmonero.org is ours. The one you linked is a squatter from years ago.
18:09:05 <ponga2112> gotcha. sux that the squatter still has posession of that domain :(
18:10:42 <moneromooo> Possibly still has hope of getting a bribe :D
18:11:42 <dsc_> I've met people who used that as their CDN, and were under the impression it was the official website
18:13:51 <selsta> CDN?
18:16:20 <dsc_> as their place to download binaries from*
18:18:19 <selsta>  at least they don’t serve malware (yet) :/
18:19:43 <dsc_> it would minimize their chances of being able to bribe the core team
18:19:49 <dsc_> :')
18:44:32 <yanmaani> You should really do a UDRP on the domain
18:44:35 <yanmaani> or try to sue its owner
18:44:53 <yanmaani> you have good chances of succeeding, and odds are they are not gonna dox themselves
18:45:36 <yanmaani> (you have to dox yourself to contest anything in court)
18:46:37 <fluffypony> yanmaani: it's actually legit hard to do that
18:46:44 <fluffypony> because (1) we don't own the trademark
18:46:49 <fluffypony> and (2) we can't prove they're malicious
18:46:56 <yanmaani> you have a common law trademark, though
18:47:01 <yanmaani> Suing someone in court is probably easier, yes
18:47:10 <moneromooo> Blackmail for 10k monero. No record of this ?
18:47:12 <yanmaani> you have to file something, send them an e-mail, and wait for them to not show up
18:47:24 <yanmaani> win default judgement, forward to godaddy, done
18:49:51 <yanmaani> Same goes for UDRP, it seems. Most UDRP cases are never contested.
18:50:17 <yanmaani> Unless your guy is willing to put up a few thousand dollars and dox himself to the general public, you'd win by default
18:57:49 <yanmaani> https://cyber.harvard.edu/udrp/process.html
18:59:02 <yanmaani> also sue for copyright infringement
18:59:10 <yanmaani> https://www.getmonero.org/resources/moneropedia/address.html vs https://monero.org/monero-glossary/address/
20:16:58 <fluffypony> yanmaani: thanks for noodling on this, I've passed those thoughts on to the lawyers to put into action
21:08:42 <dEBRUYNE> moneromooo, fluffypony: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1608865.0
21:08:48 <dEBRUYNE> May be worthwhile to add
