03:20:17 Yo 09:45:35 https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/qa12ja/new_buy_monero_with_sepa_and_credit_cards/ 09:45:42 Looks like a nice project that will further benefit adoption 13:24:49 Two more proposals are now open for funding! 13:24:49 https://ccs.getmonero.org/funding-required/ 13:24:49 My thoughts/recommendations: https://nitter.sethforprivacy.com/sethforprivacy/status/1450086654094479371#m 17:23:10 thx for the summary and publicity sethy 17:51:33 Heya 17:51:48 Figured I'd ask, is there a framework for starting some sort of local Monero usergroup? 17:52:10 I would love to have in-person meetups with fellow users. 18:01:23 I hate meeting people, got dragged out on Saturday night and for no reason this hyper masculine guy suppressing his sexuality started trying to start a fight with me 18:28:56 sethsimmons: Lightning not fun? And here I was thinking about testing it out 18:29:55 Dude, so bad... 18:30:00 I gave up today 18:30:10 go on... 18:30:35 Probably a perfect storm of me having little reason/motivation to get it working and the normal self-hosted, FOSS tooling being very meh, but wow was it not a good time. 18:30:56 If you want to run Tor-only, use FOSS, non-custodial wallets with your own node, etc., good luck. 18:31:07 I'm sure custodial is fine but that's because its.... custodial. 18:31:41 Amazed how easy it is to just use Monero w/ own node vs using LN. 18:32:28 Seth For Privacy: You should post your experience in r/btc . I guarantee you they will eat it up. (Note: _not_ r/Bitcoin . You would be banned immediately, I'd guess.) 18:34:57 Seth For Privacy: on a different subject, have you tried spinning up a piNode-XMR yet? 18:36:57 (BCH's flagship wallet, Electron Cash, is FOSS, non-custodial and includes an option to run everything over an integrated TOR proxy.) 18:37:59 crypto_grampy[m]: Nope, running all my nodes via Docker along with other things, and don't like using ARM for nodes/software, personally. 18:38:51 same... it looks incredibly feature rich though 18:39:59 Agreed! Would love something similar thats just packaged as a Docker Compose or other cross-arch package. 18:44:50 on tje topic of Docker - how is NextCloud working out? any good drive/dropbox replacement? 19:05:49 "on tje topic of Docker - how..." <- Incredible, my most used app by far. 19:05:49 https://github.com/sethforprivacy/self-hosted-services 19:06:18 I use it for mobile backups, photo backups, doc storage, calendar, contacts, tasks/Kanban, and more. 19:24:25 As it so happens, also easily supportable on TrueNAS as well: https://nextcloud.com/blog/nextcloud-now-officially-supported-on-truenas/ 19:31:24 cool
