08:23:08 Hello. Is the site https://sideshift.ai/ considered trustworthy by the community? Unfortunately it does not load with the TOR browser (gives a JS React error) Are you aware of other (good) alternatives? 08:27:35 I hear "Sideshift" is legit, though no idea of that domain is the correct one. 08:31:00 I found out about it/them in the homepage of Monerujo, so I guess it's legit. But I just contacted them and they say they do not support TOR. 08:31:56 That sounds like a lie. You don't need to do anything to support tor. You have to do extra work to prevent tor from working though. 08:32:14 Unless they mean a hidden service. 08:32:39 In this case, it is a JS error, so I guess it's possible (at least in principle) that their code breaks with the TOR JS limitations. 08:32:40 Evil assholes like cloudflare make it easy to block tor though. 08:32:48 it's not a IP ban. 08:33:04 but I am disappointed by the way the answered: "we do not suppor TOR." lol 08:33:11 Well, possibly they load JS or other from other sites which block tor themselves. 08:34:14 right. In any case I am looking for the most privacy-preserving way of converting some (small amount of) eth to xmr. If you have any suggestions, please share 08:34:34 makkiato: as far as I know, they delisted monero ages ago 08:34:57 maybe I'm mixing them up with a different website 08:35:08 shapeshift ? 08:35:12 oh right 08:35:18 that was shapeshift 10:48:54 In case people missed it. Haveno's CCS to fund the user interface: https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/295 10:49:03 on reddit: https://old.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/tg6y5i/ccs_proposal_haveno_ui_funding/ 14:59:47 Hm, so the Monero GUI app is unfortunately not usable on my windows system. It gets to about 70% of the block chain sync'd and then corrupts, twice now 15:29:54 is it actually corrupting, or just running out of disk space 16:07:28 hyc: It has approximately 6.8 TB of free space, it's not running out 16:17:27 JoBbZ_: what happens exactly at 70%? 16:17:47 daemon crash? 16:27:01 That's an excellent question. It causes my system to reboot 16:53:55 https://revuo-xmr.com/issue-112.html 17:18:49 JoBbZ: could be broken computer hardware? 17:19:15 monero has no code that causes your computer to restart, that shouldn't happen 17:28:42 could it be memory pressure? 17:34:08 shouldn't be, only using 30% of my 32GB of RAM. Both times I've let it sync, it has ended up rebooting at approximately 70%. 17:34:20 unless monero eats up the other 70% of RAM while running 17:34:41 I still wouldn't expect it to cause the system to reboot uncleanly 17:35:14 I don't have this issue with MyMonero, either 17:56:53 Event Viewer shows nothing? 18:00:40 not for what I originally filtered on, but I see one from bugcheck, putting the dmp file into windbg now 18:03:11 double fault abort 18:04:31 I wonder if it made my CPU overheat :P 18:05:40 JoBbZ: mymonero doesn't do any syncing / scanning 18:05:47 so it's not CPU intensive 18:06:21 there are stress tests you can run to check your hardware health 18:08:12 some can correct me if I'm wrong but rebooting means either a bug in windows or some hardware issue, a bug in an application shouldn't completely shut down the whole OS 18:09:20 JoBbZ: bitlocker enabled? 18:10:39 bertvvvs: no, I have bitlocker turned off 18:11:25 selsta: yeah, the article I'm reading indicates potentially a damaged CPU or not a current microcode version. I'll have to see if this happens w/o monero running. 18:14:23 try downloading the raw blockchain: https://www.monero.how/tutorial-how-to-speed-up-initial-blockchain-sync 18:14:55 thanks! 18:21:57 that will still require verification, which is CPU intensive 18:30:05 yeah, I'm going to run the intel cpu diagnostic tool see if it finds anything 18:44:46 selsta, yeah the IPs that were showing up on those logs look... familiar 18:45:26 gingeropolous: as far as I know the first person tried with ban list and it didn't help 18:45:32 hrm 18:45:32 but maybe it's other IPs 18:45:38 so still worth a try 18:45:51 but isn't it odd that it would sync up to a certain height? 18:46:00 well, i guess an attacker would want it to look normal for a bit 18:47:46 I tried syncing up with a fresh VPS and no ban list and didn't have any issues 18:48:49 no issues found by the diagnostic tool 18:51:11 i wonder if seed nodes are borkt 18:51:38 well, that wouldn't explain y u can syn with no issue. did u try syncing with a new ..... yeah fresh VPS. hrm 18:52:12 my one seed node is blowing these everywhere: 2022-03-17 18:51:54.225 [P2P0] ERROR net contrib/epee/include/net/abstract_tcp_server2.inl:777 Setting timer on a shut down object 18:53:02 eh ill just run master 19:11:29 gingeropolous: seed nodes are unrelated 19:11:52 they are able to sync to a specific height, at this point seed nodes aren't used anymore 19:12:03 also the message you posted is harmless IIRC
