01:40:31 <jeffro256[m]> Hey y'all, have any of you guys made an attempt to reclaim the monero snapcraft package? It hasn't been updated in 4.5 years. I would be willing to try filing a dispute and continue maintaining it if no else desires to. 
01:42:30 <jeffro256[m]> I know a lot of people when wanting to download packages will open up their favorite package manager and try installing the first package will the name of the thing that they want
01:45:36 <jeffro256[m]> If you look at https://snapcraft.io/monero, you can see that the most popular distribution that has the package installed is ubuntu 20.04, which is a rather new distro, which means a lot of users blindly installing Monero 0.11
01:53:58 <jerfo> I posted this on Matrix, but idk if I set it up right bc Matrix is still pretty new to me:

02:48:34 <selsta> jeffro256[m]: we removed everything snapcraft related from the repo
02:52:35 <jeffro256[m]> Wouldn't a maintainer still be able to publish a working monero snap regardless (i.e. in the repo's current form)?
12:55:45 <Halver[m]> <Halver[m]> "I didn't notice, but _get_info_..." <- synchronized - boolean; States if the node is synchronized (true) or not (false).
12:56:11 <Halver[m]> I tested it a bit, and it seems to do the job. 
13:54:03 <selsta> jeffro256[m]: I'm not familiar with it
15:04:54 <NikitasMichael[m> hey everyone, Ive just downloaded the gui wallet to solo mine but everytime i press 'start mining' it comes back with an error saying 'couldnt start mining'. I've checked the log and it says 'specify wallet for start_mining' how do I resolve this?
16:03:52 <Halver[m]> <NMN[m]> "hey everyone, Ive just downloade..." <- You must (obviously) have (created) a wallet before mining. Did you do that ?

16:04:16 <Halver[m]>  * You must (obviously) have (created) a wallet before mining. Did you do that ?
16:04:58 <Halver[m]> This kind of question is also probably better suited for the Monero or Monero Community rooms.
16:07:05 <Halver[m]> s/Monero/Moneo/, s/or/Mining/, s/Monero Community rooms/room/
16:07:12 <Halver[m]> s/or/Mining/, s/Monero Community rooms/room/
16:19:58 <NMN[m]> <Halver[m]> "This kind of question is also..." <- Ive tried joining there but it says there's no available server for some reason
16:20:45 <NMN[m]> <Halver[m]> "This kind of question is also..." <- Well I think so, i set up the wallet in advanced mode like i needed to start mining. Unless I am doing something wrong?
17:11:40 <merope> NMN: is it #xmrmine:matrix.org that you've tried joining?
18:28:52 <sgp_> Has #6410 been discussed in more detail? I need some certainty before we can move forward with Thorchain https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/6410
18:37:34 <spirobel[m]> woodser: I was reading this issue: https://github.com/monero-ecosystem/monero-javascript/issues/58 does this also apply to createWalletFull? Can I only open one wallet at a time? Or did I read this part of the test right: https://github.com/monero-ecosystem/monero-javascript/blob/ff92010b0d2df89025166f54ec1d00ce88357b60/src/test/TestMoneroWalletFull.js#L170 seems like many wallets are opened and synced in a for loop and then they run in
18:37:34 <spirobel[m]> parallel until close is called. What happens when close doesnt happen and the program crashes? https://github.com/monero-ecosystem/monero-javascript/blob/778473a4e081f03c74697e6ace3a0d416fe03888/src/main/cpp/monero_wasm_bridge.cpp#L1221 it is just a clean up to prevent memory leaks, right? so it should be no big deal.  
18:59:47 <gingeropolous> i don't know if 6410 has been discussed in more detail. it seems to be at this standstill of "obviously we shouldn't make txs distinguishable" and "but muh DeFi!"
19:04:05 <gingeropolous> but then there's also this weird in-between perspective of "well, if we remove the ability of users to write things into the chain, then the functionality of stuff will be entirely dependent on devs"
19:04:56 <gingeropolous> which is somewhat addressed with the notion of allowing users access to some block header space, so that user-data can be stored by miners in some block header
19:05:31 <sgp_> indeed, let's not forget the opportunity to use tx_extra for anything right now exists. So this is basically saying "can you come up with a better alternative, or should we default to a custom tx_extra field?"
19:08:01 <gingeropolous> well i would lean more towards the first option in that or statement. 
19:08:47 <gingeropolous> but i dunno. im just a dude that pastes stackoverflow bash snippets together
19:16:08 <woodser[m]> spirobel: you can open more than one full wallet at a time
19:17:34 <woodser[m]> if it's not saved before closing, any data since the last save would be lost
19:22:55 <spirobel[m]> <woodser[m]> "if it's not saved before closing..." <- thanks! this makes a lot of sense! I saw the wallet.getData() call in the wallet save method. https://github.com/monero-ecosystem/monero-javascript/blob/fcc00324538975817d4524b9a337e95a9b68f441/src/main/js/wallet/MoneroWalletFull.js#L1911 still need to research how I would reopen from this data ... 🙂
19:24:39 <woodser[m]> can just call monerojs.openWallet() with the path
19:37:10 <spirobel[m]> <woodser[m]> "can just call monerojs.openWalle..." <- hm...maybe I will not have a path...just get the data out of wallet.getData() and drop it into chrome.storage.local
19:38:20 <woodser[m]> ah, that can be done too, by providing keysData and cacheData to the openWallet() config
19:39:20 <woodser[m]> https://moneroecosystem.org/monero-javascript/global.html#openWalletFull
19:40:51 <spirobel[m]> woodser[m]: Great! Thank you so much! 🙂 
19:41:03 <woodser[m]> np :)
20:12:43 <jeffro256[m]> selsta: if it cost no extra time to the dev team, would a maintained monero snap be something that you would like to see?
20:14:29 <selsta> I'm not familiar with it, I just know something snapcraft related got added to the repo a while ago but it was never maintained
20:14:41 <selsta> I removed it again a year ago or so
20:20:12 <jeffro256[m]> Ah I see. Do you know who the maintainer was?
20:28:46 <jeffro256[m]> His name on Snapcraft is greyfaze
21:13:39 <selsta> jeffro256[m]: https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/1068
21:13:52 <selsta> honestly, the less we have to maintain ourself, the better :D
21:45:12 <wernervasquez[m]> Nevermind, I see it is 64 bytes in jamtis spec
21:50:28 <chowbungaman[m]> Hi All, I have been contacting some
People individually to ask if they want to participate in MoneroTopia.com But I just want to put this general message out their to all Monero devs/researchers/contributors to please reach out to me if you would like to be a speaker or know someone you believe I should reach out to. If so, please message me.
