03:21:27 <m-relay> <k​ayabanerve:matrix.org> plowsof: I did see I'm in a very unfortunate position regarding the community meeting timeline (or very favorable, if it would take about two weeks to solicit opinions and this meeting is right at two weeks after my posting). Would you mind raising if I have issues actively present/letting me know what else I should do before the next meeting?
03:21:34 <m-relay> <k​ayabanerve:matrix.org> I posted the CCS proposal to both MR{Lab, Lounge} and here.
09:04:41 <m-relay> <s​upercryptonoob:matrix.org> I think I used to see some podcast/youtube channel that explain monero in a very technical way, but I cannot find it anymore
09:05:02 <m-relay> <s​upercryptonoob:matrix.org> Can somebody post the links, thanks
11:31:11 <m-relay> <r​ottenwheel:unredacted.org> moneroj.net goes open source! https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/s/abMUkGDV7K
11:37:10 <m-relay> <1​7lifers:matrix.org> "basic html, css"
11:37:11 <m-relay> <1​7lifers:matrix.org> let's go
11:42:41 <nioc> rotten is there a light mode setting so that I can blind myself?
11:42:54 <nioc> .lenny
11:43:17 <nioc> is the swap exchange feature functional?
11:47:25 <m-relay> <r​ottenwheel:unredacted.org> nioc no.
11:47:29 <m-relay> <r​ottenwheel:unredacted.org> nioc yes.
11:50:09 <nioc> nothing seems to happen when i put in a number on one side of the trade
11:50:37 <m-relay> <r​ottenwheel:unredacted.org> nioc ask me if I care...
11:50:47 <m-relay> <r​ottenwheel:unredacted.org> it's open source. I'll be waiting for your PR. :)
11:52:16 <nioc> but is says Revuo so I thought you cared
11:52:41 <m-relay> <r​ottenwheel:unredacted.org> I guess I don't. 🤔
11:52:51 <m-relay> <r​ottenwheel:unredacted.org> how dare I... lawsuit!
13:04:31 <m-relay> <3​21bob321:monero.social> 😑
13:09:07 <m-relay> <h​bs:matrix.org> isn't that simply a trocador widget?
13:52:32 <m-relay> <f​iatdemise:matrix.org> With the finality layer, if a bad actor owns a lot of Monero, what damage could they do?
14:27:43 <m-relay> <r​ottenwheel:unredacted.org> Yes, it is.
14:52:52 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Halt the chain
15:01:21 <m-relay> <u​ser2570:unredacted.org> Can someone please quickly explain this dns checkpoints solution?
15:01:23 <m-relay> <u​ser2570:unredacted.org> Or give a link..
15:04:13 <m-relay> <r​ucknium:monero.social> user2570: See `--enforce-dns-checkpointing` at https://docs.getmonero.org/interacting/monerod-reference/#server
16:12:24 <n1oc> [CCS Proposals] kitty rawr opened merge request #605: Edit rawr_xd-playing-the-videogames.md https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/605
16:51:02 <m-relay> <r​ucknium:monero.social> Supporters coming out of the woodwork: https://sporestack.com/blog/posts/2025-08-11-save-monero-from-qubic.html
16:51:03 <m-relay> <r​ucknium:monero.social> > In response to our most private payment option being threatened, we've launched savemonero.info (which has more details) and we are investing 0.01 BTC (About $1,200 USD) into Monero mining on miningrigrentals.com. We do have one of our infrastructure servers mining with p2pool as well.
18:50:48 <plowsof> If only promoting and funding mining rig rentals wasn't detrimental to our future , a double edged sword that will become sharper over time 
19:22:33 <m-relay> <3​21bob321:monero.social> Isnt that what qubic is doing anyway
19:24:11 <m-relay> <3​21bob321:monero.social> Also has monero batman twatter account twatted rucks website ?
19:47:57 <plowsof> Rucknium have there been any KISS solutions of lifting suggested defences against selfish mining from published papers? Like instead of first seen, lick the winner at random? 
19:48:27 <plowsof> s/lick/pick :( 
19:54:26 <tokr> What would you use as consensus random source ?
19:58:57 <plowsof> Surely monerod can obtain something random, eeny, meeny, miny, moe? Block hashes? I dont know, most likely a 50/50 decision. Its a proposed defence, there are others in published literature, seems sane to look what has been suggested already rather than coming up with something novel 
19:59:40 <plowsof> Btc has no such defences and also uses first seen afaict
20:02:11 <tokr> What's stopping me from setting up my node to pick at "random" to suit my needs ?
20:16:47 <plowsof> True, would require more control of the network, or fake sybil nodes to do just that. There are other more recent papers such as "publish or perish" - ive only read the title ofc      https://arxiv.org/html/2307.00529v2
20:24:22 <m-relay> <r​ucknium:monero.social> plowsof: I think that would set the gamma parameter in the selfish mining computations to 0.5
20:24:23 <m-relay> <r​ucknium:monero.social> It could hurt or help the adversary, depending on what their gamma is now.
20:34:40 <plowsof> s/more recent/2017 
20:35:09 <tokr> How resilient is the p2pool scheme to selfish mining ?
20:39:33 <sech1> p2pool supports uncle blocks, so you can't orphan them so easily
20:40:05 <sech1> it's designed to be able to run with fast block times and many possible reorgs
20:46:03 <tokr> Exactly, - but I guess processing actual transactions would get messy
