00:04:35 Am I just misremembering things, or was there a time when much more stuff could be directly used with a SOCKS proxy? It like a lot of programmers just decided that supporting SOCKS proxies was bad for some not-really-articulated reasons. 00:04:52 s/It like/It seems like/ 00:06:51 my memory is hazy as well but i seem to remember socks proxies being a lot more common (e.g., were the only way to access the internet at many workplaces.) 00:07:09 the last 15 or so years i've only heard of socks in connection with tor. 00:10:03 One thing that especially annoys me about the diminished support for SOCKS is that it makes tunnelling through SSH much harder -- and, of course, using arbitrary things with Tor and I2P. 00:12:27 yeah. this tsocks thing is supposed to make arbitrary things work via LD_PRELOAD, but i couldn't get it to work earlier today 00:12:41 make arbitrary things work with Tor, i emant 00:14:45 The most frustrating part of this whole "we don't need no SOCKS" shit is the fact that polipo quietly fell out of support. With polipo, you could make pretty much anything work with SOCKS. 00:15:22 I didn't even know it was out of support for several years. 00:17:19 I thought about stripping out the unnecessary functions for SOCKS proxying to make a more purpose-specific tool that was easier to maintain, but I never got around to it. 01:19:31 Dear fireice_uk. I must strongly object to you reporting our great Monro community members to Freenode for racism AND getting people K-lined as a result! i.imgur.com/R0T9GGY.png THEY ARE NOT NEO-NAZI!!! THEY ARE JUST SAYING NEO-NAZI THINGS!! i.imgur.com/JYu44As.png I know this because they have been nice to me and made me their Magical Crypto Friend! If you don't cease immediately I shall throw another tantrum! 01:19:31 Monero Community Member PS. You are interrupting my session of masturbation to The Man in the High Castle. 02:10:35 .faucet 02:10:35 N​orkle: How many le​tters in SOON 02:10:42 4 02:10:43 Norkle: @bonuspot tipped 0.0000005 XMR to Norkle [0c67be0b] Wait ≈1 day 15 sec before trying again. @bonuspot: 0.01520394 02:38:59 Hi, everyone! I am new to monero and just created a wallet on MyMonero 02:39:16 what should I do next 02:40:04 I would like to try using monero with $1 worth of it 02:40:44 but it seems that Binance don't accept such a low amount of monero transaction? 02:46:23 not sure what the minimum amounts are for the various exchanges 02:46:49 but actually they only accept $10 or more 02:46:56 per transaction 02:49:58 I learned from https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/1564/is-there-a-list-usable-monero-faucets that "if you want some spare change to play around with, people on IRC will generally give you some monero", is that true? 06:01:57 I guess Dice9923 was too impatient to wait for an answer. 08:24:54 Reminder that we have a village staff meeting today Saturday at 18:00 UTC. It is a public meeting that anybody can attend, to plan our appearance at Defcon 29 (5-8 August 2021 in Las Vegas) with topics in the agenda https://github.com/monero-project/meta/issues/579/ 08:25:30 To attend the meeting find us on the IRC channel (in Libera) #monero-events. 09:49:30 There are multiple psychological hooks to keep Monero community members in place. Here is one: 09:49:30 https://vimeo.com/272691039 09:49:30 Notice that Scientologists don't stand on street corners saying "Would you like to talk about our Lord and Saviour, Xenu?" 09:49:30 Put yourself instead in the shoes of someone who spent $10,000 and 2-3 years of their life on their courses 09:49:30 And you get a bunch of bad sci-fi - you have two choices: 09:49:31 - either swallow a very bitter pill that you wasted a pile of money and a portion of your life 09:49:31 - or swallow the sci-fi, and from that point on, you will swallow _anything_ they tell you. 09:49:32 In the cult trade that's called "insider doctrine". 09:49:32 Would you like to talk about our Lord and Saviour of NASA, Howard Chu? 09:49:33 https://medium.com/@crypto_ryo/senior-nasa-engineer-calls-out-howard-chu-hyc-symas-monero-developer-on-being-a-fraud-db0b46688041 11:07:57 .faucet 11:07:58 un​derscore: Ho​w many total letters or numbers in BITG 11:08:02 4 11:08:02 underscore: @bonuspot tipped 0.0000014 XMR to underscore [98af5dc1] Wait ≈23 hrs 58 min before trying again. @bonuspot: 0.01520254 13:58:31 .faucet 13:58:33 Mo​chi101: Of ​2 <-> 7, which is 2 13:58:37 2 13:58:38 Mochi101: @bonuspot tipped 0.0000133 XMR to Mochi101 [68f1a0c9] Wait ≈23 hrs 57 min before trying again. @bonuspot: 0.01518924 14:02:15 <\x> wallet beg 14:02:16 ​\x: How many colours in the list: brown, white, purple, green, black an​d pub 14:02:25 <\x> 5 14:02:25 \x: @bonuspot tipped 0.000001 XMR to \x [3855c48b] Wait ≈23 hrs 55 min before trying again. @bonuspot: 0.01518824 17:12:27 I think everyone here knows that most Monero exchange withdrawals and desposits are traceable (Breaking Monero - poisoned outputs). How does it feel to go out and lie to people that they are private and then earn less than holding BTC on your bag? 17:33:24 Reminder that we have a village staff meeting in a half hour (at 18:00 UTC) on #monero-events.
