  Wow, is Monero blockchain THAT big?
• 05:35

  Doesn't it mean my internet connection isn't fast enough to run Monero node?

  Are you using a spinning HDD ? If so, don't and it'll be a lot faster.
• 05:40
  V-T60
  Yes, you're right. I need to get an SSD
• 06:04

  By the way I would like to check the internet connection bandwidth between my router and this computer too
• 06:05
  V-T60
  Seems that it might perform better

  I'd guess your connection to your router is much faster than your connection to the ISP, unless you're running really old networking gear.

  apotheon: what's the were bird? Has monero surpassed bitcoin yet?
• 18:00
  garth
  Has got to be any day now
• 18:01
  apotheon
  What does "what's the were bird?" mean?
• 18:02
  » moneromooo feeling a bit less stupid now

  If you're asking when the exchange value of 1.0 XMR > 1.0 BTC, I think it'll be a while. The hype-and-panic train of BTC is strong.
• 18:06
  apotheon
  Maybe garth meant to say "What's the word, bird?" . . .
• 18:06
  apotheon
  That's my best guess.
• 18:06
  garth
  That's what I meant yes
• 18:06
  apotheon
  If it's "What's the werebird?" I'd say it's probably a person who turns into a bird during the full moon.
• 18:07
  apotheon
  garth: Thanks for clarifying.
• 18:08
  garth
  I was more tongue in cheek asking about transaction counts :P
• 18:08
  apotheon
  ahh
• 18:08
  apotheon
  That's likely to catch up more quickly.
• 18:09
  apotheon
  As more and more BTC ends up in the hands of "HODLers", I expect transaction rates to drop off.
• 18:12
  apotheon
  I'm just making half-educated guesses, though.
