<321bob321> No year announced

<laptop3037:matrix.org> Damn I wish I know sooner there were Android app dev bounties sooner.

<ofrnxmr> ?

<laptop3037:matrix.org> @ofrnxmr: Like this bounties.monero.social/posts/25/3-8…er-app-for-running-xmrig-p2pool-etc

<laptop3037:matrix.org> I am an android app dev

<ofrnxmr> thats been completed for years

everyone is an android app dev

<ofrnxmr> But yeah, bounties arent for core development, theyre for all sorts of monero ecosystem things

<ofrnxmr> There are some caveats, of course. Like you csnt make a bounty to add features to someone elses program unless you receive prior approval that the feature will be accepted

<ofrnxmr> Like "add monero to zodl wallet"

<laptop3037:matrix.org> I gave it as an example > <@ofrnxmr> thats been completed for years

<laptop3037:matrix.org> plowsof: You can tell if someone is specialized in android dev or not.

<laptop3037:matrix.org> I've had to fix a lot of terrible android code in my contracts.

<ofrnxmr> Nice

are you able to show any of your previous works?

<laptop3037:matrix.org> I have not contributed to open source repos unfortunately. Only for my client portfolios. And they are private repositories.

<ofrnxmr> 2 rooms you should probably join: #monero-community-dev:monero.social and #monero-bounties:monero.social

<laptop3037:matrix.org> The most downloaded app I worked on is Garmin Connect

<laptop3037:matrix.org> With version 5, the home screen/module was completely rewritten in jetpack compose. That was the last thing I worked on there.

sounds good, sadly people go on the internet and tell lies so 'do not trust, verify', or wait for contributions, there are existing FOSS monero wallet apps in the ecosystem

<r4v3r23> very nice. will look more into CG > <@4rkal> CypherGoat SafeRoute page is now live! It features everything you should know about the saferoute smart split algorithm and includes the MoneroKon 6 presentation cyphergoat.com/saferoute

<jpk68:matrix.org> GTA 6 is a psyop and it will never come out <— still coming before serai tho

<hbs:matrix.org> geonic: Will serai come with a physical disc?

if we’re back to using discs in 2050, yes

:)

<kayabanerve:matrix.org> geonic's trolling aside, I actually really wanted to see physical PC games premised on USB 3 m.2 SSDs be done by _someone_.

<kayabanerve:matrix.org> The abandonment of physical media is an eternal shame.

Even if it's physical media you also get day0 updates to get them workable

<diego:cypherstack.com> I was pinged

<diego:cypherstack.com> but I was in Amsterdam at a conference

<pw:xmr.mx> @diego:cypherstack.com: a search shows it was space kitty on a rant. DW about it, she's banned again for now

<pw:xmr.mx> from here > <@ofrnxmr> @diego:cypherstack.com you were mentioned

<diego:cypherstack.com> ah ok

[CCS Proposals] Lee Clagett opened merge request #684: Mark vtnerd 2026 Q2 Part2 Completed repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/684

<jpk68:matrix.org> At least physical media for music is making a comeback... seems like it's here to stay at this point

<jpk68:matrix.org> According to some potentially questionable sources, 61% of Gen Z and 53% of Millennials consume music on physical media

<jpk68:matrix.org> I guess GOG is the best we have for games though :P

I still have 78rpm records

<hbs:matrix.org> nioc: any 8 tracks tapes?

No, they were bad from the moment they were invented

<hbs:matrix.org> nioc: I remember cars with 8 tracks players

<pw:xmr.mx> I remember cars having radio/cassette player inside but CD/multi CD players were for some reason in the trunk

<pw:xmr.mx> if you were really lucky, you may get one in the glove compartment

Yeah cd players were new and expensive

@seen offtopic

<pw:xmr.mx> would have collections of 8pack cassettes in old VHS style boxes, but people with sticky fingers would take the good ones leaving the shit, so would always have to record cassette to cassette for the car and leave the original tape pack in the house :D
