<s​tarlingfarchecker:monero.social> “Some altcoins cannot compete even if they have perceived advantages such as throughput or privacy” my fucking ass lmao

<s​tarlingfarchecker:monero.social> I feel so betrayed i’m an owner of four proton mail accounts 🥲

<m​cneb10:envs.net> "altcoins can't compare to bitcoin even though they are technologically superior in every way because we invested way too much into bitcoin already and cant pull out"

<m​cneb10:envs.net> average bitcoin maxi mindset

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> dont support this shitty company

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> addy.io is $12 a year

Do you use it?

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> yeah

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> its great

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> sure you can have my email for this giveaway

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> and once you annoy me, ill just turn it off

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> it's also a bit of a boost for job applications if you can hand out custom domains all the time

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> sure, you can do that with your regular domain but it's very simple through addy

Nice.

Haven't looked at such services before but this one is affordable, would look at its discussions now.

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> you need your own domain to use it properly, i'd recommend using orangewebsite and getting a very cheap one since it will never actually show up anywhere

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> i have to pay like 35€ per year for a domain because i initially thought i would send stuff from it

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> but now everything goes through addy

I am limited in what I can use for domains because I am restricted to crypto - getting a foreign bank card would be expensive. Although you can get prepaid ones for Monero, but I can't know for sure whether any given registrar would accept them.

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> orangewebsite accepts crypto

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> i think LTC

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> use payment mode trocador.app/?ref=YFJL36Szy7

Ye, saw that on Porkbun too.

Saw some people recommend it so maybe would renew there next year.

zk-proofs in bitcoin, anyone know if it's any good? x.com/BTC_OS/status/1816180788938870815

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> fuck yes

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> if this allows EVM-style smart contracts on btc it's going to become even more useless

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> (for payments)

<c​t:xmr.mx> 4 hours later we got monerica2.com 👀

<c​t:xmr.mx> man I knew that we are a hydra but sometimes you guys surprise me

<c​t:xmr.mx> not sure if its legit or not tho

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> ive messaged them with what should be an easy fix

<r​ottenwheel:kernal.eu> Do we know who's running that one yet?

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> its behind cloudflare and on top of that down :P

<c​t:xmr.mx> ewww

<c​t:xmr.mx> I mean it loads for me?

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> so if it comes back without cloudflare, you can thank me ;)

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> ah its bcs it doesnt auto-redirect http to https

<c​t:xmr.mx> I kinda thought the new one was you 😬

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> nah that would be scummy lmao

I'm skeptical of cloud hosting, have heard of people getting surprised by huge bills after traffic spikes

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> no

a dedicated server is cheap and if a service isn't making lots of money it's better to go down temporarily than to go bankrupt

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> that is sErVeRLeSs cOmPuTiNg

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> the scam term is sErVeRLeSs cOmPuTiNg

<r​ottenwheel:kernal.eu> It loads for me too, but who's running it?

My association with "serverless" is something like Briar.

minth, that's why you pay in crypto)

<n​ononynous:monero.social> Serverless don't exists

<n​ononynous:monero.social> Theres only client side things

yeah the word serverless is a lie, it's not serverless unless it's something that runs on the client without an internet connection

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/…matrix.org/djQXxKMUGJkPPtKxapcWmpwh

nononymous, well, Briar does not have servers, for example. But that comes with usability drawbacks, and you can have sorta-server in form of a "mailbox".

okay wrong comparison it is more like a bouncer but you get the point

<c​t:xmr.mx> not sure. Got a message on simplex and thought I relay it here. Thats why I wrote "not sure if its legit"
