02:04:52 <libre[m]> I just started mining today. I was hesitant at first because I have “little” hashing power.
02:05:01 <libre[m]> I wanted to share with you what changed my mind
02:06:00 <libre[m]> So. I only have about 5KH/s. I thought it was a waste of my time and resources to  mine only 0.001 xmr per day.
02:07:12 <libre[m]> But then I thought. If I really believe in a future where monero replaces bitcoin wouldn’t you want to be mining the equivalent to 100,000 sats per day?
02:07:57 <libre[m]> Then it was a no brainer. I just made the sat parity. I really believe monero to be a better Bitcoin. So instead of thinking of my xmr in dollar terms I thought about them in sat parity terms.
02:12:15 <libre[m]> Now I regret not starting mining months ago 😂
02:19:27 <Torr> libre[m]: Nice
02:20:42 <Torr> libre[m]: How is your power consumption going?
02:24:40 <libre[m]> No idea. The utilities come included in rent. So for my case it doesn’t matter… yet
02:27:33 <Torr> Very nice
02:45:21 <entry1[m]> <libre[m]> "So. I only have about 5KH/s. I..." <- Is it a dual core pc? What are the specs
02:50:47 <libre[m]> I had two pre m1 MacBook pros that were sitting idle
02:51:43 <libre[m]> 8-core intel i9 2.3ghz. Maybe I’ll turn them into Linux this weekend to get more juice out of them
02:52:06 <libre[m]> Now that I’m hooked with the sats xmr parity idea
02:52:15 <entry1[m]> Gotcha, hey may as well. $73 in today's dollars annually. Could be $1k in the future, may as well. Or just sell one and buy some lol
02:52:24 <bridgerton[m]> <donkeyballs> suggestion, mine on http://mini.p2pool.io with low HR
02:52:34 <entry1[m]> I would like to do some small mining for fun too
02:53:04 <libre[m]> What computer do you have?
02:53:18 <bridgerton[m]> s/<donkeyballs> suggestion, mine on http://mini.p2pool.io with low HR/<donkeyballs> suggestion, mine on https://p2pool.io/mini/#pool with low HR/
02:53:34 <libre[m]> CPU wise
02:53:58 <bridgerton[m]> <donkeyballs> if you have newer AMD procs, you'll get higher HR than Intel
02:55:37 <libre[m]> I’ve seen that but I gotta buy new hardware for that. I like the idea of putting idle stuff to work. May not be worth much today. But sure as hell will be worth a lot tomorrow.
02:56:54 <entry1[m]> I only have super dated spec stuff so I would definitely be losing with electricity, but it would be fun to do it
02:58:53 <bridgerton[m]> <donkeyballs> I mine with several different types of procs, for instance VM's running on Xeon E5-2680 v2 using 8-cores (DDR3-1866 RAM) gets around 3.5KH/s.  AMD Ryzen 5 3500X 6-Core (DDR4-3600 RAM) gets 4KH/s, AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (DDR4-3600 RAM) gets 17KH/s
03:00:12 <entry1[m]> Very nice. Super nice for people who got good deals on the hardware or bought pre-covid or even 2021 lol
03:00:44 <bridgerton[m]> <donkeyballs> actually, since AMD Zen4 is coming in 2022, Zen3 proc prices have dropped
03:01:23 <bridgerton[m]> <donkeyballs> just purchased a AMD Ryzen 9 (Zen3) 5950X build for $1200 on newegg this month
03:03:59 <bridgerton[m]> <eli> Lmao that's not implicit bias that's explicit bias aka racism
03:10:15 <entry1[m]> <bridgerton[m]> "<donkeyballs> just purchased a..." <- Nice. How much for the entire build?
03:11:05 <libre[m]> <entry1[m]> "I only have super dated spec..." <- For fun and securing the network via p2pool. The other interesting part is there is a hash raffle where you get boosted by 5KH/s in p2pool.
03:13:11 <bridgerton[m]> <donkeyballs> are you sure the XvB raffle boost is only 5KH/s in p2pool?  I've received many 3MH/s boosts in p2pool.io/mini in the last couple weeks
03:16:55 <libre[m]> I didn't have the exact amount on my mind lol I guess I rounded it up for practical purposes
03:17:14 <libre[m]> Monero being mentioned again on "What Bitcoin Did" in super good light btw
03:17:17 <libre[m]> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ml3B3ssQX7Y&t=4400s
03:19:40 <libre[m]> Latest episode. The guest ask the host "What technology solves centralization, censorship, ever changing laws?". Peter answers: "1 for sureee.. and argument for Monero" 
03:22:12 <bridgerton[m]> <donkeyballs> <libre> About XvB raffle, I think you missed what I said.  I received several 3000KH/s (3MH/s) boosts in p2pool.io/mini in the last couple weeks
03:22:41 <libre[m]> I did missed that, holy shit that's a lot.
03:22:56 <libre[m]> s/missed/miss/
03:23:05 <bridgerton[m]> <donkeyballs> yeah, definitely was fun to watch shares start rolling in like mad
07:38:06 <libre[m]> I know Monero doesn't need any government permission nor it wants it but
07:38:20 <libre[m]> What's your prediction on which country is gonna be the first to make it legal tender
07:47:17 <libre[m]> I think I just found the perfect place
07:47:26 <libre[m]> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montevideo_Resolution
07:48:42 <libre[m]> The United Nations recognized the Esperanto Language in Uruguay. 
07:50:08 <libre[m]> Uruguay has a 97% green energy supply. So we can mine there without issue. Plus, it's next to Argentina (high demand for non-inflationary assets). And the fact that it is in Latam can provide competition to Bitcoin dominance in the region. 
07:51:40 <libre[m]> * United Nations officially recognized the
08:04:45 <midipoet> Uruguay is supposed to be a lovely country
08:07:49 <libre[m]> EL CITADELO
08:21:52 <libre[m]> Other synonyms in esperanto would be
08:22:15 <libre[m]> ELIZEO
08:22:18 <libre[m]> EDENO
08:23:02 <libre[m]> Monero Edeno has a nice ring to it

08:48:42 <libre[m]> Welp that's it. I sold myself into the idea 😂
15:17:36 <msvb-lab> That's a very well made article escapethe3ra[m], and I even like the way it prints on paper. I did that from curiosity (printed to PDF.)
21:14:39 <rojiro> does anyone know who runs localmonero?
21:16:21 <jwinterm[m]> Alex
21:21:23 <rojiro> thank you
21:22:19 <jwinterm[m]> Not sure it is the Alex in here, but in reddit they are alex_localmonero or something
21:55:19 <escapethe3ra[m]> <msvb-lab> "That's a very well made article..." <- Thanks! Nice to hear that it looks good on paper.
22:06:44 <lous1F> <escapethe3ra[m]> <msvb-lab> "That's a very well made article..." <- Thanks! Nice to hear that it looks good on paper. 
22:06:51 <lous1F> ^just missed it I guess. Which article? I'm curious
22:07:53 <escapethe3ra[m]> https://www.monero.observer/verify-install-update-monero-cli-wallet-linux-guide/
22:09:05 <lous1F> ty
22:10:02 <escapethe3ra[m]> Sure
22:19:49 <msvb-lab> It's a good one, you will like it.
