00:07:01 <nikg83[m]> This is bad, can’t the wallet itself select decoys while scanning blockchain and save it in a db locally ? Which can be used later on while sending payment; can also request decoys from remote node but use a mix of locally sorted decoys and ones sent from remote node.
00:14:48 <selsta> nikg83[m]: use your own node
00:15:33 <selsta> anyway, I think the node sends a list large list of decoys and the clients ends up selecting which ones it chooses, the reddit link is outdated
00:17:59 <nikg83[m]> selsta: Node will know same ip broadcasting a tx which has unknown (real) decoys 
00:18:21 <selsta> obviously the node will know the ip
00:18:27 <nikg83[m]> selsta: Yah one day when cake supports tor nodes, as my node is behind nat 
00:18:49 <selsta> that's why you should either use your own node, or use a trusted node
00:18:58 <nikg83[m]> selsta: I mean real spent on that tx
00:19:03 <selsta> otherwise they can try to spy on you in various ways
00:19:53 <selsta> I don't know whaat you mean with "broadcasting a tx which has unknown (real) decoys"; but that discussion is better for #monero
00:25:21 <nikg83[m]> Ok
01:15:01 <anarkiocrypto[m]> Thanks for the info. I need to use onion remote nodes because I can't host my own node for multiple reasons. I already guessed remote nodes could see txid and possibly decoys, just wanted to know for sure.
01:20:44 <Rucknium[m]> But can the remote node know which of the ring members are decoys and which are the real spends, or does the wallet query both types of ring members in the same way?
01:35:25 <anarkiocrypto[m]> I heard some months ago, if the remote node says TX failed, don't try to resend it immediately because it could find out the real spend. IDK if this is still up-to-date.

17:16:54 <Halver[m]> <joe-molested-hun> "Since it is so difficult to..." <- Using Tor, you can create a tutanota email.
17:16:54 <Halver[m]> Once you have this tutanota address, use it to open a GH account.
17:49:00 <qumon[m]> hi, is this the right place to ask questions about swap issues?
17:50:42 <Rucknium[m]> #monero-swap:monero.social  is the right place, I think
17:51:06 <qumon[m]> thx

22:04:47 <selsta> can someone review 8055 / 8056? it's a version bump for hidapi, we sometimes have strange issues with ledger not connecting on some systems, updating hidapi might help here
23:30:26 <Elijah[m]1> yo
23:31:06 <Elijah[m]1> How come the device verification for matrix has a shield without a border for the desktop app and a shield with a white border for the mobile app??? I clicked the shields were not the same the first time lmao and it said verification cancelled.
23:31:33 <Elijah[m]1> Does anyone know how to disable that entire process and just verify all logins or make it use a 2FA app instead?
23:31:34 <Elijah[m]1> But anyways
23:31:48 <Elijah[m]1> https://github.com/monero-project/monero/issues/8058
23:32:00 <Elijah[m]1> I had some feedback for the UX when using the RPC wallet
23:32:10 <Elijah[m]1> the change is 1 or a couple LOC
23:33:04 <Elijah[m]1> just a log message on the default log level that would let users of the wallet-rpc know that the wallet needs to be synced and is being synced rather than making us do hours of debugging
23:33:28 <Elijah[m]1> would've saved me 5+ hours and will definitely save other developers a lot of time!
23:49:27 <RustyIcicle> Hey guys :) I want to include official wallet code, namely blockchain scanning and transaction generation. does anyone have any experience with where to "cut" the codebase, or if it's even feasible?
23:49:54 <RustyIcicle> for example "simplewallet.cpp", is that relatively self contained? it looks quite complete.
