Mochi101: Would you say it's still safe to use?
 
- 
Mochi101
Steven_M, yes
 
- 
Mochi101
Personally I won't use something like that, but you must have your reasons.
 
- 
Steven_M
Mochi101: It's just temporary until I get the problems with my own node sorted.
 
- 
Steven_M
Mochi101: Cool, just to confirm, the URL is 
mymonero.com, right?

endogenic
ask me
 
- 
endogenic
i built it
 
- 
endogenic
i cant maintain it anymore
 
- 
endogenic
no access
 
- 
Steven_M
endogenic: I've never seen you in here before.
 
- 
endogenic
not sure what to tell ya
 
- 
Steven_M
Can anyone vouch for endogenic?
 
- 
endogenic
no need
 
- 
endogenic
my code is public even if it was washed over
 
- 
endogenic
as are my talks and irc records
 
- 
endogenic
only question is how do you know i'm not actually chatgpt ?
 
- 
endogenic
has anyone actually seen endogenic alive in the last X years?
 
- 
Steven_M
endogenic: no offense, I've just never seen your nick.
 
- 
endogenic
i may have seen yours once or twice
 
- 
endogenic
you must have been here early
 
- 
endogenic
not many people remember mymonero
 
- 
endogenic
so, opposite of offense taken

endogenic

- 
Mochi101
Steven_M, yes
 
- 
Steven_M
Mochi101: Yes to the URL question, or yes to vouching for endogenic?
 
- 
Mochi101
both
 
- 
Steven_M
Mochi101: Okay, thank you :-)

» Steven_M has to go now, I'll be back later.

Does anyone have a link to the "private" block explorer project
 
- 
xmrfn[m]
Quite a few.
 
- 
xmrfn[m]
First. Impressive as hell. They claim to be able to factor integers in O(m/log m) physical qubits.
 
- 
xmrfn[m]
From a cursory read, looks plausible. Naively for RSA2048 that would be ~617 qbits. The paper claims (and I believe them) it will take only 372. 
 
- 
Mochi101
modern day snake oil
 
- 
Mochi101
having your cake and eating it too
 
- 
xmrfn[m]
Best today are just shy of 100. It gets exponentially harder to manage as the number of bits goes up. But that's plausible in the 10-20 year future.
 
- 
Mochi101
the cat is alive and dead
 
- 
xmrfn[m]
They also claim breaking RSA2048 will take a depth (number of sequental gates/"run length" of quantum program) of "thousands". I'm not sure what the state of the art is for depth, or how quickly it's likely to improve.
 
- 
xmrfn[m]
So yes, this is impressive, unexpected, possibly YUGE, and means RSA2048 probably has a shelf life of a few decades.
 
- 
xmrfn[m]
But **no impact to Monero**, AFAICT
 
- 
xmrfn[m]
This paper is all about factoring large numbers.
 
- 
xmrfn[m]
Ed25519 is based on elliptic curves over finite fields, rather than the factorization of large  numbers. 
 
- 
xmrfn[m]
Edit: After reading [Scott Aaronson’s post](
scottaaronson.blog/?p=6957) I see this almost certainly **isn't** a big deal -- likely won't scale to larger numbers

Hi All :-)

Steven_M
Is it normal for the same https website to be verified by different CA's in different browsers?
 
- 
Steven_M
getmonero.org is resolving to www.getmonero.org instead of its usual web.getmonero.org, should I be worried?

Steven_M: yes it's still operational; mymonero.com -> scroll to the bottom and you'll see that we still operate the web wallet although we strongly discourage its use

DanIsnotthemanBr
Maybe curl or dig  the website address to verify chain

 * Hello guys,
 
- 
user23434[m]
 New monero user here. I was wondering what pc (pre-built as unfortunately I can't make one myself) should I buy to mine monero. My electricity price is about 0.22usd/kWh. Budget should ideally be less than $2000 but is flexible. Main concern is profitability.
 
- 
user23434[m]
 Thank you in advance for your help.

i don't know much about mining but i think what you've just said is missing the entire point of 'RandomX' / 1cpu1vote

plowsof11: That graph is kinda pointless, this one is better: 
moneroj.net/efficiency 
 
- 
merope
Unfortunately, at 0.22 $/kWh you're gonna lose money
 
- 
merope
(unless the Monero price goes up significantly
 
- 
merope
In this context, profitability = (your mining efficiency / breakeven efficiency) - 1
 
- 
merope
so a profitability of 0 means that all your mining income is spent on paying for the electricity you used

Jack[m]
any good reads on why I should host my own node?

ahh, I started watching that series

got too boring by part 3
 
- 
Jack[m]
I'll check this out though, thanks
 
- 
merope
tldr: better privacy, and much smaller chance of malicious stuff happening (like the node telling your wallet that you should pay 1 xmr/byte in tx fees

16:35:20 <FuFo> Hi there, forgot my token number to see my history...
xmrvsbeast.com/cgi-bin/p2pool_bonus_history.cgi any hope to generate it again? sorry guys...

endor00: plowsof @plowsof:matrix.org:  found this one the other day 
poolbay.io/crypto/23/monero

ofrnxmr[m]
Also shows pool hashrates etc like minerpoolstats, though its missing a couple pools
 
- 
FuFo
nice pools...but I still trying to access to my own history after I forgot my token 
xmrvsbeast.com/cgi-bin/p2pool_bonus_submit.cgi ...How can I get the Token number again?
 
 
- 
ofrnxmr[m]
#p2pool-mini:libera.chat  and ping xmrvsbeast
 
- 
ofrnxmr[m]
Or #xmrmine:matrix.org 
 
- 
ofrnxmr[m]
After those two, you will have collected all of the infinity stones and reposted the same message. Best time just add a header IMPATIENT

Next time*

ofrnxmr nicer-looking plot than bitinfocharts, but revenue per kH/s means fuckall on its own
 
- 
ofrnxmr[m]
Yeah, just below is a calculator too :P
 
- 
merope
it's all about efficiency, which in turn tells you exactly how many $/kWh you can earn by mining
 
- 
merope
yeah, I mean the plot
 
- 
merope
because you can't really learn anything useful from it alone
 
- 
ofrnxmr[m]
Overall I like that the site seems to merge a few different sites feature into one (minerpoolstars, bitinfochsrts )

<merope> "That graph is kinda pointless..." <- That's why I told Morpheus to add this ^ to his site

You should use a computer you already own to mine it
 
- 
xfedex[m]
i recommend p2pool-mini as a mining pool, and xmrig as a mining software
 
- 
RavFX[m]
Mine with everything you already own, it's what I do too.

What happens if I first synced with prune-blockchain=1, and then remove this parameter and start monerod?
 
- 
sech1
blockchain will remain pruned
 
- 
sech1
and new blocks too
 
- 
llacqie[m]
And where does he keep the information that the blockchain is pruned? In lmdb file?
