<bridgerton[m]> "<Himington> How do i buy like..." <- Have you tried LocalMonero? CashApp should work well if you're in the US.

Hey there, how can I gracefully shutdown monerod when PC is shutting down, if its run from systemd?
-

<ofrnxmr[m]> "Example bbeing "btc in elsalvado..." <- Is the El Salvador experiment sustainable, and why has no country tried something similar with xmr? Don't want to get political, just curious
-
k4r4b3y[m]1
My guess is lack of awareness
-
k4r4b3y[m]1
Many people do not know Monero exists.
-
k4r4b3y[m]1
For example, in he high fee event, people flocked to using LTC, and not XMR.
-
xfedex[m]
side-trips[m]: I'm glad that no country tried to do what El Salvador did with BTC
-
ofrnxmr[m]
k4r4b3y[m]1: ltc fake af vokume
-
xfedex[m]
El Salvador's "bitcoin" wallet is just custodial, centralized garbage
-
ofrnxmr[m]
Tons of micropayments
-
side-trips[m]
k4r4b3y[m]1: I've always wondered why initial influences that pulled me into crypto thought so highly of ltc
-
k4r4b3y[m]1
xfedex[m]: I think the question should be "why has no COMMUNITY tried something similar with XMR?"
-
side-trips[m]
Cuz community is kill
-
k4r4b3y[m]1
Instead of wishing to government mandate for enforcing monero usage, we should see comminities on the meatspace trying to adopt XMR.
-
k4r4b3y[m]1
Example: Orania, South Africa.
-
xfedex[m]
k4r4b3y[m]1: Probably because it's not big enough yet
-
k4r4b3y[m]1
They already have created their own paper money, outside of the SA state.
-
k4r4b3y[m]1
Why didn't they pick XMR?
-
ofrnxmr[m]
Cucks, obv
-
ofrnxmr[m]
The world is a stage
-
xfedex[m]
Monero's active community is only a few thousands of people, and Bitcoin's real community (those who want it to be actually adopted) is just like 2-3x larger
-
ofrnxmr[m]
butcoin active comm&nity doesnt use btc
-
ofrnxmr[m]
They talk a lot and know nothing about what they talk about
-
ofrnxmr[m]
Showing that they clearly have never used btc
-
side-trips[m]
xfedex[m]: For real? How'd you get to this conclusion?
-
ofrnxmr[m]
Th recen push and acceptance for custodial or trusted solutions shows btc users never cared
-
ofrnxmr[m]
side-trips[m]: Reddit etc
-
k4r4b3y[m]1
ofrnxmr[m]: The recent article praising the custodial btc adoption for the sake of front-running cbdc's is an example of this.
-
ofrnxmr[m]
Theres far more normies in btc, thats for sure
-
k4r4b3y[m]1
Custodial bitcoin is not using bitcoin.
-
ofrnxmr[m]
But "in" btc.. on coinbase
-
ofrnxmr[m]
These days "btc users" disagree
-
ofrnxmr[m]
Custodial is the ONLY path forward
-
ofrnxmr[m]
lmao

S*th

Most people in Bitcoin never actually used it, they have it only for gambling
-
k4r4b3y[m]1
ofrnxmr[m]: This your opinion or you being sarcastic?
-
xfedex[m]
i did a very very very rough estimate
-
xfedex[m]
k4r4b3y[m]1: He's sarcastic
-
xfedex[m]
you don't know ofrnxmr i guess :)
-
k4r4b3y[m]1
xfedex[m]: I am new around here
-
side-trips[m]
Bros y'all are so right. I'm also new lurker and the xmr community scares tf outta me
-
k4r4b3y[m]1
<xfedex[m]> "Hey there, how can I gracefully..." <- Btw ping me if someone answers this. So far I have been letting systemd shutdown monerod. But I don't know if it has been doing that "gracefully" or not.
-
xfedex[m]
afaik when you shut down the system, systemd services are terminated
-
xfedex[m]
not sure
-
side-trips[m]
Gotta be way to see in sysd logs right?
-
xfedex[m]
my blockchain had corrupted and i had to resync, it's kinda annoying
-
ofrnxmr[m]
Resyncing was indeed annoying
-
ofrnxmr[m]
But now keep 2 copies lol
-
ofrnxmr[m]
And once a week run a cron job on a second monerod with --add-exclusive-node=activenode --data-dir=different/folder
-
xfedex[m]
what why
-
ofrnxmr[m]
so if the active once corrupts, i have a copy less than a week old
-
ofrnxmr[m]
Idk if i can copy the blockchain file while its in use so it from sync from myself
-
ofrnxmr[m]
So i just sync it from myself*

[P2P7] INFO global src/cryptonote_protocol/cryptonote_protocol_handler.inl:1686 Synced 53760/2885976 (1%, 2832216 left)
-
George[m]
If that ^ was printed to my log, why would get_info's height show 53760 and target_height not show 2885976. Sometimes it's showing 0 and I've also seen target_height be non-zero yet also below height's #. Why?
-
ofrnxmr[m]
probably checked get_info before your peer mde outgoing connections
-
ofrnxmr[m]
Targerlt shows 0 or stops counting aftrr fully synced or if you havent recieved the top height from peers
-
ofrnxmr[m]
below height = node finished syncing
-
ofrnxmr[m]
My code smthn like 'if .target_height -lt .height echo synced else .target_height - .height end'
-
ofrnxmr[m]
* My code smthn like `if .target_height -lt .height echo synced else .target_height - .height end`
-
ofrnxmr[m]
And only does the calc after having > 2 peers
