Tradeogre might work 03:21:33 Also for p2p maybe localmonero 03:21:51 Not sure how active it is there 03:25:41 Tradeogre should work but watch out it sometimes get flagged at high risk! 03:26:08 as* 03:32:22 ive done 2-3 sales on localmonero 04:32:54 Just going to share because this is kind of sad. I had some other people try the PinePhone I got for a few minutes to ask what they thought about the usability of the phone. All of them said that it has all of the features they need for a reasonable cost. I was amazed until almost all of them ended with "I'm going to keep using my iPhone/Android Phone though. I think I'm upgrading again when my contract expires". Society 04:32:54 scares me. I'll mention as well that they all know how to use Linux. Unfortunately using Linux doesn't always translate to caring about privacy or reasonable tech prices. 04:36:49 Phones are a status object. Like having a certain car, or certain sneakers. 04:37:32 Samsung and Apple have worked really hard to socially engineer this perception on people. 04:38:14 i lost my phone while drunk 04:44:00 Maybe in some countries but not mine. Only among stupid kids is it one. 04:48:47 Good for you, but in my experience it is like that everywhere, even in poor countries 04:49:07 Can I ask in which country it is not like that? 05:27:41 Sorry, had to play with my cat for a while. I wish phones and shit were not status symbols. I drive an old ass car that most people look at and think of it as a rust bucket and use lots of older technology where possible because it's just better than modern equivalents. For example, my landlord's washer and dryer is old enough that if anything goes wrong, we can buy parts without a single issue, fix it, and it's good for 05:27:41 quite a few more years. Same goes for older fridges and freezers, and even phones (although modern phones like the PinePhone and others allow you to repair your device easily). People see that as extremely weird but I don't care about status symbols whatsoever. 05:31:13 The funny thing is that my devices, appliances and vehicle can easily be repaired when they break for extremely cheap. Everyone that has newer hardware in my area has a tendency for it to break within a couple of years and they'll just buy a new one because it's apparently cheaper than repairing it. Hell, I've seen people walk out of stores with a brand new phone and within a week have the entire front and back completely 05:31:13 cracked. They then just use Apple Care or other equivalents to indirectly throw it out and get a new one. 05:45:04 I guess the Threadripper and the Epyc CPUs are quite similar as long you don't need lots of lanes. If this is true the Threadripper should be the better option. 05:47:20 Why? 05:48:18 I asked some questions at https://forum.monero.space. It seems the forum is very inactive. 05:49:31 Where is the biggest Monero community? On Matrix? Justin talked about bringing all people to Matrix. What room is the best for Monero related questions? 05:49:54 * anonmon777[m] < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/MSUDeytmuacSeLsbPEVlEreu/message.txt > 05:50:07 Copy of: https://forum.monero.space/d/88-monero-payment-deployment-questions-monero-inner-workings-question 05:50:33 Go to "Join Room" and just type "Monero". It's basically the most populated rooms on Matrix that are the best for getting responses to your questions in a timely manner. 05:50:53 Oh, wait. Are you on IRC? 05:51:30 No. Is IRC the better option? 05:52:23 matrix is bridged to irc so....... 05:52:46 No, I was just wondering because I saw the # beside your name which confused me for a moment. If you're on matrix you can just do what I said above and you'll find a community pretty much instantly. 05:53:28 This was meant for IRC? 05:55:10 The biggest community I found is this room. 05:55:22 I am new to Matrix. Please help me out. 05:57:13 Add room -> Explore public rooms -> Change Matrix Rooms to All Rooms -> You should see Monero Mining as one of the top results followed by many others. Steps I provided primarily work if you are on the matrix.org homeserver. 05:58:11 d 05:58:29 Explore public rooms"> Exactly. Thanks. What room do you recommend? I have some technical development and Monero inner workings questions. 05:59:24 XMR mining sounds like not the best room choice. 06:00:37 I'd mainly recommend rooms which are more general like Monero Community, this room, and others that are similar. 06:02:22 At Monero Community I don't have permission to write. Is this a Matrix thing? 06:03:48 Generally speaking those communities will have something in the description along the lines of "If you can't type in chat, follow [link here]" or write it out in the room information itself. Just depends on the room. 06:09:44 Nope. Can you join and write in the #freenode_#monero-community:matrix.org or #monero-dev:matrix.org or #freenode_#monero-dev:matrix.org ? 06:12:15 Do I have to wait before I get write permission for preventing spam? 06:12:15 Oh, it's one of those servers. I think for the #freenode servers you either need to be assigned permissions or in some they require you to sign up for an IRC account and somehow link it. Don't ask me how that works because I've never done it in all honesty. 06:13:02 Because you use IRC and be fine? 06:15:26 I used to use IRC but I abandoned it a while back. I was able to talk without an account for many months without an issue and suddenly every single server required me to make an account to talk or join, hence me leaving. Now I just use Matrix because it makes more sense in my case. 06:25:46 * anonmon777[m] < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/BFbPgdaehrfTAFmUxNaZcNaG/message.txt > 06:50:43 Did you know that all witdraw-buyer-seller-depoist chains are trackable in Monero?

Makes you think they're just doing nice things, making sure everything's properly setup etc. We should rename the STASI Community Life Compliance Office. 13:25:16 Such a nice ring to it :D 13:25:28 You'd make a great minister of propaganda, moneromooo 13:25:58 my dumb ass read it as "complaint" *facepalm* 13:26:10 heh 13:26:39 that's some nosy shit though.. 13:27:27 Easy fix: you're supposed to read with your eyes. 13:27:30 * moneromooo flees 13:28:19 lol 13:28:51 what happens to such "dirty" bitcoin in the future? will they just be discarded? 13:29:21 Hopefully (for the owner) another pool mines them. 13:29:38 But it likely will start to mean delays/higher fees in the future. 13:33:04 eventually they'll be unmoveable, as soon as "compliant" pools get 51% and start orphaning non-compliant blocks 13:33:50 some say that only 30% is enough for the chain reaction. Other pools won't want to lose money on orphaned blocks and switch to be compliant quickly. 13:34:59 shit! I have so much to learn and read about 13:35:06 we all do 13:36:56 Read these :) 13:37:25 Basically if compliant pools are >51% Bitcoin is dead 13:37:26 Have Fun Staying Censored 13:37:28 When that happens, Bitcoin's path to the dark side will be complete 13:37:52 maybe you will get BTC.West and BTC.AxisOfEvil 13:38:06 sethsimmons 51% is not required, I saw some game theory paper that claimed 30% and a threat of orphaning blocks is enough to flip other pools 13:38:24 Yes, I linked above 13:38:33 It actually starts at 10% in theory 13:38:49 But there is a good rebuttal of the <51% arg linked above as well 13:39:18 there's always a chance other pools will team up and orphan "compliant" blocks :D 13:40:38 Yes, once the gain a higher and higher share of global hashrate they can push game theory further and further towards incentivizing compliant mining for purely financial reasons 13:43:25 one has to ask how much miners favor ideology over profits though 13:43:28 Many prefer the latter 13:43:53 In any case, this problem can only be addressed by addressing the root cause 13:44:08 The rebuttal from 6102Bitcoin implies that <51% miners remain (in most situations) more profitable by blindly mining the highest fee TXs and not censoring 13:44:58 Yes, this starts to break down the entire game theory of mining (incentivize "good" miners through financials) and starts to split up miners based on ideology 13:45:24 Crazy to see what we've been talking about for ages coming true 13:46:10 didn't the two btc pools that together were >51% take ideological action to reduce their hashrates? 13:46:30 Wasn't even two pools lol, ghash had >50% for quite some time 13:55:14 Jimmy Song: "Bitcoin doesn't NEED to change anything to be successful" 13:56:24 sounds like the rallying cry of every legacy system that ever existed 14:03:26 My testnet-only Monero learner's web wallet went fully public: https://old.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/n67wx1/techwallet_a_new_and_quite_special_monero_web/ 14:03:35 Let's see how long my servers hold ... 14:05:04 This is awesome 14:05:56 hm, i can't reach server, conn timeout 14:09:05 No problem (yet) from my place 14:16:33 fun 14:17:27 aaand I got a tx into the testnet mempool 14:20:10 Yeah, testnet sure can use some more transactions. As TechWallet can show rings, I saw how often my own outputs occur as decoys, simply because not much to use is around :) 14:20:12 sethsimmons: hey, just want to say that your blog posts got me interested in monero 14:20:21 thank you for effortposting 14:20:55 Glad to hear it, entire goal is just to make sure people are educated and informed and can make the right decision for them :) 14:21:08 I, obviously, believe the right tool for most is Monero, and so focus my efforts there. 14:26:16 PapuaHardyNet: what's rbrunner's blog? 14:26:36 No, sethsimmons has a blog ... 14:26:46 oops sorry.. 14:27:28 Maybe this: https://sethsimmons.me/ 14:27:58 thanks! 14:30:13 Looks like somebody is already stress-testing my poor technet daemon with a 51-input tx. Good :) 14:35:14 lol 14:35:29 oh cool I can get the keys for the wallet. 14:36:26 rbrunner: is the code available on github or similar as well? 14:38:51 No. It's quite far from "publishable" still. And there is quite some infrastructure behind it that's not trivial to set up, 2 daemons, 6 RPC servers, 2 block explorers 14:39:49 But nothing against open-sourcing it, in principle. 14:44:38 And I consider it an open question whether there is real demand for something like this. My earlier website "Play with Monero addresses and seeds" (the root https://monerotech.info) was an utter failure in this regard. 14:46:20 rbrunner: testnets are always nice to have, but very complex to set up, right? 14:48:37 Well, it's mostly getting all those command-line parameters for the Monero daemon right. It's not even a real net in my case, a single daemon running somewhere is enough to support TechWallet. 15:02:40 Well done, technet block 1869131 hit the limit of 300 KB. Looks like the wallet still needs some more rate-limiting, too easy to escalate. 16:51:36 lol.

Then I would encourage you to look into how any other cult works. They aren't populated by stupid people. Aum Shinrikyo was almost exclusively university professors and graduates. For Pete's sake - they had the know-how and means to make WMDs. 23:35:04 As to Monero, I would encourage you to look at Jonestown mass-suicide. You know why Jones killed them all? Because he was afraid he is loosing control over them. People like that will burn everything around them rather than give up control. Being smart doesn't make you immune to being in a cult. This is the most valuable lesson Monero taught me. 23:38:19 lol 23:39:33 I am amazed their still think that FUD is working.
