<m​lopes:matrix.org> Where are the guys that spoke about freedom of speech and privacy??

<m​lopes:matrix.org> ?Hidden like mice?!!

<m​lopes:matrix.org> Wouldn't it be time to get together and start doing something to put an end to this nonsense bs?

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Redox?

<i​ty:itycodes.org> & Jeremy Soller ? Or which Jeremy

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Redox is not a distro, but idk any other Jeremy that works on PopOS, Cosmic, and smth that starts with Re-

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> I'm on RedoxOS channels and I haven't seen Jeremy soller

<i​ty:itycodes.org> 👀

<i​ty:itycodes.org> He's the lead dev & BDFL of RedoxOS

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Lol

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> fuck why do every great technical project have to be handled by woketards. (i'm saying that but maybe it was a mistake from rando, I never had any issue and they seems nice)

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Woketard? That's a very random word

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> oh wait maybe its libtards. I don't remember

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> Fireship said it in its last video

<i​ty:itycodes.org> What

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Highly doubt that Fireship said -tards anythinf

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Highly doubt that Fireship said -tards anything

<i​ty:itycodes.org> And if yes, he was probably making fun of 4channers

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> youtu.be/QYVucud3ptc 1:03

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> yes most probably

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Ah rofl

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Certainly.

<i​ty:itycodes.org> ^

<i​ty:itycodes.org> In any case, Jeremy is just a regular asshole, powered by greed a pretty big drop of narcissism

<i​ty:itycodes.org> The rest of the dev team honestly seemed cool though

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Sad that the BDFL is not

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> Unless he find someone in his life, it's most certainly going to end like a linux torvalds v2

<i​ty:itycodes.org> \/shrug

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Torvalds improved since his shouty days

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> yep. I like the actual torvalds

<h​ardhatter:monero.social> I don’t mind him but he’s bought by corporate

<c​rispycat:matrix.calitabby.com> russian haxxor linyos torovoldos?

real_glitch:matrix.org: Because systemd is bloat, buggy, messy, filled with security exploits the developers outright refuse to fix (and often even see as features), too much Windows-like, and it tries to become the a full replacement of both GNU, and Linux in a slow boil fashion. And it's a Red Hat product, which is owned by IBM, which is heavily controlled by the US military industrial complex.

syntheticbird:monero.social: I would agree if it was served as an option, rather than the only way.

hardhatter:monero.social: I actually prefer OpenBSD to remain small. In the Linux space we've all been whining about Linux not getting any recognition for decades. Now it finally got recognition, and look at how much of a mess it has become since then.

<h​ardhatter:monero.social> Yea I agree with you hahah. My sentiment is more that it’s a shame it has to be that way. More people can’t have nice things :(

ravfx:xmr.mx: The only use case I have for a Glibc distro is to play video games, because Steam only works on Glibc distro's. Apart from that, Musl for the fucking win!

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> If you are going to reboot for game, then just have a windows partition, it just work better.

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> Linux got a change to make it better using Gallium3D state trackers in the past, they got native DX11 and 10 implementation that they scrapped and DX9 implementation that was nish and unsupported (a lot faster than windows implementation).

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> All scrapped to make corporation (nvidia and apple) happy

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> So instead we transcode and waste cpu ressources

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> and so electricity

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> for a lesser experiance, while it could have been the opposite

Nah, since I only play indie games, just a Glibc distro works well enough.

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> (only opensource drivers, like AMD and Intel, did support native DX API)

For emulators it often doesn't matter. Musl has all the emulators, and OpenBSD has most of them as well.

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> so Wine and friends continued to transcode to make the closed source world happy

And electricity is relatively cheap here in Japan, so that's not a worry for me.

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> A waste is a waste.

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> 50W extra for half the fps is a waste

I run an entire compile server park in my house, and barely even hit the 10,000 yen a month mark.

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> While using the native api that got scrapped, it was same power for 10-20% faster than windows (with windows games on patched wine)

Without that server park, it's only 2,000 yen cheaper.

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Since XMR is designed to be untraceable; would it be safe to assume I could buy any coin (e.g. BTC/ETH) from any exchange, swap it for XMR and then use that whilst staying anonymous?

<b​asses:matrix.org> yes

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Alright, thank you.

<b​asses:matrix.org> but don't spend the same exact amount immediately

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Naturally

<m​odul8:matrix.org> where would you send your btc to get monero? remember you have kycd your bitcoin and the implications of that'

<b​asses:matrix.org> can be correlated

<b​asses:matrix.org> trocador

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Naturally I'd buy from an exchange without KYC

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> KYC is too much of a hassle regardless of security

<s​trawberry:monero.social> The risk is that whoever receives your BTC spends it on illegal stuff and you get the blame

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Well at that point I already have plausible deniability, don't I?

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> The legal system where I live isn't as bad as the U.S.

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> Centralised exchanges come with KYC procedures, if not currently the case on some of them, rest assured it's coming. You can acquire your monero on a decentralised exchange instead

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> I buy my monero from haveno-reto.com personally

<s​trawberry:monero.social> I don't know how the law applies here and it probably depends where you live, but from a purely technical standpoint if they see this illegal purchase and there is no coinjoin/whatever between it and you withdrawing from CEX, it'll look exactly like you were the one who made that purchase

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> No AppImage/Flatpak?

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Eh, I guess I can just build from source.

<m​odul8:matrix.org> they are both in the works. you can just extract the .deb and it works like a portableapp

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Fair enough.

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Can I make haveno use my already running system TOR service instead of starting it's own?

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> Yes

<m​odul8:matrix.org> i dont think so. to run it on tails you need to run a provided script for it work. theres a guides somwhere for whonix that people claim they work. i havnt had the patience to try them yet.

<m​odul8:matrix.org> oh it dos? nice

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> Use flags —torControlHost —torControlPort and if nessesary —torControlPassword (non hashed)

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> Not to be confused with the socks proxy port

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> And this is part of the newest builds, so you may need to build from source yourself to use this atm I think

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> managed to get it to work

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Managed to get it to work

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Latest release has it

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> ```

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Haveno --torControlHost=127.0.0.1 --torControlUseSafeCookieAuth --useTorForXmr=ON --torControlPort=9051 --torControlCookieFile=/var/run/tor/control.authcookie

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Right now I'm also just waiting on my own full node to finish it's initial sync

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/…alous.news/DYwnotUPRZOOOyZesHjqsGsm

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Right now I'm also just waiting on my own public full node to finish it's initial sync

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> Mine finished about an hour ago, but what’s the fancy GUI? I want it

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> Reminds me of grafana

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> Yea it is

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> That's because it is

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> github.com/semyon2105/monerod-exporter

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> Oooo thx

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> I'm using [this](github.com/lalanza808/docker-monero-node) docker setup to run it

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> I’m using a similar one but I made a custom stack so that it’s impossible for the monerod node to make any connection that is not proxied through tor and alongside it also having its own inbound hidden service

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Ah, nice

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> I'm running a tor proxy on a separate server actually

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Address is `anews6cvoazwg7tyk53dxsm2bkvwrk5eoansphb4zwpgx47ffeqfyqyd.onion` if anyone wants to use it

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Alternatively you can use `xmr.anomalous.news` (with optional SSL) for clearnet connections

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> cool. free node for the grinder

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Wouldn't recommend using it yet, won't be fully synced in the chain until another 6 hours (give or take)

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> (deal or no deal)

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Seal.

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Seal!

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/…alous.news/eIoXswsXPYTWnQDbJucAtaDG

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> lmao

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> `monerod` says 3 hours but it also said 8 hours last night so I don't trust that number

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> indeed don't trust it

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> It's not like the server's bad either, it's got 128GB of RAM with a 32-core CPU

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> Lilith is rich confirmed. An AGM-158C LRASM is underway to your location.

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Oh, no, it's only about 100€/month.

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> damn whats your host?

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> looks like a deal

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> royalehosting.net/store/dedicated-servers

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Cryptomining isn't allowed though, keep that in mind.

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> obviously yes

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> thx for sharing

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Naturally I also don't condone using their services for or in support of any illicit activities.

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Naturally I also don't condone using their services for, or in support of, any illicit activities.

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> Do they accept monero without any kyc ?

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> (Just to know if they should be added to kycnot.me)

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> I don't think so

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Registration requires personal details as well as a physical billing address

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> Ok rip

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> But FYI the dedicated server we rent for nowhere.moe is rented through servers.guru, with monero and no kyc

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> (50euros monthly)

<b​asses:matrix.org> would be 250-300$ per month to reach the same power of Lilith VPS

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> Nah less I think. You can send them the server you want wherever it is

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> Probably 130eur monthly I'd say

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> Nah less I think. You can send them the server you want wherever it is (cloud reselling)

<b​asses:matrix.org> servers.guru thoughts? how much it would cost for a server with 28GB of RAM with a 32-core CPU?

<b​asses:matrix.org> servers.guru thoughts? how much it would cost for a server with 128GB of RAM with a 32-core CPU?

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> just one more middleman bro, just one more

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> If your opsec demands anonymity, you gotta do with what you have at your disposal

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> how is it more secure than just servers.guru

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> I think you misunderstood the message

<3​21bob321:monero.social> How come there is no middlewoman

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> oh yeah

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> sorry

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> i though nowhere.moe is a serversguru reseller

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> lol

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> women is an illusion

<3​21bob321:monero.social> I has a drawing of one

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> Yea just motivating people to rent their servers using monero, with no kyc :)

<n​ihilist:nowhere.moe> IMHO its good to practice anonymity here and there

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> I guess I must be a hologram then

You pay with Monero for anonymity. I pay with Monero because my card is sanctioned. We are not the same.

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> ? aren't you it/its

glad to be here tho

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> its said on your website

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> LLMs are rapidly improving

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> There's more to me than I tell on my website

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> I see.

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> then yes you are an hologram

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Am I even real? Who knows.

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Maybe I'm just an experimental large language model made by OpenAI

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> the moral guideline however is always as biased

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> I should totally set up a bot some day

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Matrix bots are surprisingly easier to do than you'd expect

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> That just yaps

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> look at moo bot repository in cuprate organization

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> No I meant local LLM

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> That's even easier

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> why not the two?

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> github.com/open-webui/open-webui

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> I hate python

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> I hate you

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> You're not gonna like the AI world then

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> I like mistral.rs and llama.cpp

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Like 90% of the most popular programs are written in Python

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> yeah because data scientist are bad programmers

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> that need C FFI to make things run but they don't realize

<b​asses:matrix.org> matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/…matrix.org/RKFQosqjamyBFcUAJMDnoPgw

<b​asses:matrix.org> "people" made this meme true

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> On the Internet, nobody knows you're a large language model made by OpenAI.

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> ah but you said you were one

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Did I?

<b​asses:matrix.org> lie, It is Electron

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> hold on I'll just grab some bypass real quick

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> I'll test @nyxaris:anomalous.news

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> ah nevermind deleted the file

<h​ardhatter:monero.social> Mainstream AI algorithms are naive anyway

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> i'm not against an hologram woman chatGPT member i guess

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> welcome to the club

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/…alous.news/AkqBxwYTsaObnHATlVaabOyA

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> On the topic of modern design

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> that is why UX team is as important as the rest of the company

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> i bet that summary of this and every other article with this title will be:

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> internet is bloated(i agree)

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> but i disagree with HTML only websites

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> indeed HTML only do not make a website cleaner

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> You'd be surprised how much style you can get with minimal design

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> stop being a PHP enjouer you old school boomer

<m​onerobull:monero.social> Man I nearly invested time into learning langchain as someone who doesn't really know any programming languages already

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> HTMX can solve this to some extend, thats why prefer it to most of the popular JS frameworks

<m​onerobull:monero.social> I feel like langchain is already dead

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/…alous.news/ZMYKjczRViWpRKUaBLZHsoCE

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> HTMX can solve this to some extend, thats why i prefer it to most of the popular JS frameworks

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> An example

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> AI framework appear and disappear as fast as JS frameworks

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> fuck, my eyes

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> People still make JS frameworks?

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Well that's kinda the drawback with TOR isn't it

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> yeah they still don't want to understand that SolidJS is the superior solution

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> You don't get fancy dark mode addons or the color-scheme css selector

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> And dark mode only websites are bad for accessibility

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> There is #monero-site:monero.social channel if you wanna follow meetings about the new monero website being worked on

I hated dark mode right until now.

So dark mode only is BOOO

Also, can't you make such a button via html+css?

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Well the site is still in development

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> I could probably add a dark mode selector pretty easily

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> just style it a bit with HTMX, some coloring for side bars and top main heade

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> add dark mode option or make it default

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> GG

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> I could probably add a dark mode toggle pretty easily

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> no random animation running on your screen👍️

<s​trawberry:monero.social> Why do all websites report xmr supply as 18446744? It's always this number, doesn't change when a new block is found, so it must be wrong

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> No JS.

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Site must be compatible with strictest mode in TOR

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Site must be compatible with safest mode in TOR

<b​asses:matrix.org> it is called Tor support.torproject.org/about/why-is-it-called-tor

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> is it just tor? or its same with i2p?

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> No I2P eepsite yet.

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> what about Freenet

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> jk

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> i mean, is it strict as tor?

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> this thing should die

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> didnt know that its still alive

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> I don't care what the feds say I'm calling it TOR

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> its not it has been forked but i don't remember the new name

<b​asses:matrix.org> >Note: even though it originally came from an acronym, Tor is not spelled "TOR". Only the first letter is capitalized. In fact, we can usually spot people who haven't read any of our website (and have instead learned everything they know about Tor from news articles) by the fact that they spell it wrong.

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> That's what the glowies want you to think.

<b​asses:matrix.org> bullied by feds

<b​asses:matrix.org> lol dude it is the naming

<b​asses:matrix.org> you are using it

<b​asses:matrix.org> so they already won

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> but i think i2p is better option than tor

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> tor is centralized to some degree

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> if anon community supports the i2p, it will easily solve a lot of its current problems and it will be way superior to tor

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> anon wise ofc

<b​asses:matrix.org> >tor is centralized to some degree

<b​asses:matrix.org> wot?

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> image.png

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> what wot? Tor is completely centralized

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> I win

<s​trawberry:monero.social> new nodes need to be manually approved

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> the authority directory is directly managed and approved by the Tor project

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> There are advantages as well as caveats

<b​asses:matrix.org> deter forensics

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> i was wondering why relay count is fixed for few years already until i found this lol

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> *remained fixed

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> the fact that all of the core devs are part of the DEI system is not helping it at all

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> cant trust tor tbh

<s​trawberry:monero.social> Can't trust Tor project, but you also can't trust random nodes getting added in their thousands clearly being run by the same actor

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> thats why i said i2p is better but with some limitations for now

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Yea, esp cuz VT often has false positives

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Ig they tried their damn hardest

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Or, VM detection hm

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> VM Detection tends to be detected, ironically enough

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Hmm

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Imteresting

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Doesn't seem to use SSL though

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> So we could totally spam them with fake data

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Eheh

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> reqdump.pcap

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Here's the raw data if anyone's feeling mischevious

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> It's a copy of the `stealc` stealer

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Presumably Russian Malware-as-a-Service, alleged developer goes by the alias Plymouth

<b​asses:matrix.org> Looks like there are bots spreading malware on Github issues comments microsoft/vscode-copilot-release #1497

<b​asses:matrix.org> looks like info stealer

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> That's been going on for a while now.

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> I'll run a triage

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Not a clean analysis unfortunately

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> tria.ge/240826-qvt37awekh

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> huh akshually Plymouth is not a hacker, it's a software for boot animation on linux

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> A lot of C2's on this one

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> All on ".shop" domains

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> And all behind cloudflare

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> Source? I played a ton of game using d3dx9 native api, it work extremely well (it's also still there and usable assuming you want to waste more time to patch wine and do the winetricks to install the d3d9_xx.dll and d3d_compiler43.dll). No, d3d9 api is complete on linux and better than the windows one. Specially now that a lot of theses old dx9 game wont work on windows 11.

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> Dxd10 and 11 where incomplete and that the one that also got trashed.

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> As gallium being deprecated, what the real problem? Opengl and dxd9 is still using it for the radeon and nouveau(afaik). Intel was the first to implement it and trash it. Was it because when you implement an API, you endup giving the api support to all other opensource gpu drivers? You know, the people working on the gpu drivers are the corporation that make these cpu, do you thin<clipped message>

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> k it's in there best interest to give API support to all the competition... For free?!?!?

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> Was kind of funny on my thinkpad X200, Had opengl 4.3 support thanks to AMD doing free implementation for everyone. Then intel yanked Gallium3D support so downgrade to OpenGL 2.1 because Intel did not bother implementing proper opengl for that GPU...

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Full node almost synced

<4​aqzij3ffxwemucm:nowhere.moe> What node package is this?

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> ...A monero blockchain node.

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> Grafana

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> monerosuite.org

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> or

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> github.com/lalanza808/docker-monero-node

<i​ty:itycodes.org> What are you even going on about there

<i​ty:itycodes.org> What do you even mean by *opengl and dxd9 is still using it for the radeon and nouveau*

<i​ty:itycodes.org> The nouveau gallium driver was deprecated in favor of Zink. The radeon gallium drivers are buggy. Only the Intel ones work reliably.

<i​ty:itycodes.org> And nobody wants to work on anything Gallium anymore

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> I love little fan websites like this

<i​ty:itycodes.org> I forgot the name of the amd radeon driver lol. Sec

<i​ty:itycodes.org> In classic gallium fashion

<i​ty:itycodes.org> matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/…ycodes.org/CmbXmluZdbRbHCRvkKrCfXSr

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> "Zink is a Gallium driver that emits Vulkan API calls instead of targeting a specific GPU architecture."

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> So it'

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> So it's an extra abstration, so instead of doing OpenGL->Gallium, we are doing OpenGL->VK(Zink)->Gallium.

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> Nice improvement of efficiency that we only see in Linux Desktop space 😂

<f​ede:xmr.mx> some desktop applications are using WebGPU as graphic driver, and embed a WebGPU -> whatever real-time translator

<i​ty:itycodes.org> No, that is not correct

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> Or it's the opposite

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Zink is a Gallium driver

<f​ede:xmr.mx> for those apps, it's 1 extra abstraction

<i​ty:itycodes.org> OpenGL -(Zink)> Vulkan

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> OpenGL -> TGSL(Gallium) -> Vulkan

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> anyway, more abstraction layer better they say

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Yes, it's less maintanence effort

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Yes, it's less maintenance effort

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Mesa is already incredibly understaffed

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> Yep,, less effort, I know

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> It's like JS, make stuff less efficient and slower, but easier on the dev

<f​ede:xmr.mx> monerosuite contains MoneroBlock? 😍

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> Tranquil Ity yep yep, lets aim for inferior stuff because the corporation don't care about Linux Desktop funding and everything is underfunded/under staffed. If the Linux Fundation could divert like 2% of there "AI" funding or "20% of there Covid contact tracing funding, into Linux desktop instead, it would fix a lot of funding issue.

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/…oad/xmr.mx/UCzwoeVfHHomPoovLItRhbBi

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> Zink is better, but we are still transcoding from one api to another one

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> Actually if one look at phoronix benchmask, you can see that Zink outperform classic radeonsi in most benchmarks, But actual games get eater a little more FPS or literally half of the FPS

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> And that was the last phoronix Zink news : phoronix.com/review/radeon-zink-summer23

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> Default for Radeon is to use RadeonSI (Gallium), not Zink

<system> file 121418219413.mov too big to download (3174831 > allowed size: 1000000)

<v​elviqs:nope.chat> 121418219413.mov

<i​ty:itycodes.org> Wdym inferior stuff ?

<i​ty:itycodes.org> OpenGL is dead

<i​ty:itycodes.org> OpenGL drivers are legacy support

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> It's been transcoded an extra time

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> And if you look at actual game benchmarks (not synth), if often get half of the fps compared to the native implementation it replace

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> that would be inferior for me, at least on where there is already an actual working driver

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> (like radeon cards).

<i​ty:itycodes.org> I personally prefer a bit slower but reliable over fast and buggy

<i​ty:itycodes.org> I quite often run games on my 7900 XTX with Zink because the Gallium driver is buggy

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> I personally just run my game on Windows (dualboot), anoying but it actually work as intended.

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> I gave up a long time ago with that gaming on linux mess, including newer hardware like your on where the drivers are often subpar

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> any suggestions for good linux video player?

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> something that is not useless like VLC or Gnome video player

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> and MPV where you need to sit and configure it like a nuclear reactor before making it usable

I had issue with wi-fi drivers, that's why I ran Ubuntu-based Mint instead of Debian for a while.

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> I do use the nuclear reactor actually, best video player imo

The only game I play now runs well on Linux natively, and a couple others work very well via Proton.

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> im too lazy to sit and configure every single system in my whole family

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> i wish potplayer had linux version

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> best VP ever

<r​eal_glitch:matrix.org> im too lazy to sit and configure every single system in my whole family

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> good job

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Also finally finished syncing

<n​yxaris:anomalous.news> Only took 3 days :P

<d​arkhappyman:monero.social> wow this is hot ! It's a fast node than we can use ? :)

<d​arkhappyman:monero.social> I just bought a 500GB M2 ssd, I hope it will be enough for running a monero node

<d​arkhappyman:monero.social> I just bought a 500GB M2 ssd, I hope it will be enough to run a monero node. 😇

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> More than enough

<s​trawberry:monero.social> Way more

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> Need 4tb /s

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> 500gb should give you some good headspace (probably a few years) for a pruned node

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> I would even say ten years at least

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> for a pruned node

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> fifteen years* my bad

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> Not at stressnet volume

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> We hit 27gb pruned in a cpl months

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> ?

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> were you talking about stressnet?

<s​trawberry:monero.social> that said, FCMP tx are bigger

<d​arkhappyman:monero.social> let's gooo ! <3

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> No, im saying stressnet volume wasnt too incredible. About 30tps at times makes for some relatively fast growth

<d​arkhappyman:monero.social> and full node ?

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> I missed the part about consolidation tx. Are those smaller?

<s​trawberry:monero.social> They are, not sure what net effect that will have

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> full node could probably hit 500GB in 5~10 years if transactions volume increase

<s​trawberry:monero.social> If the chain is 99% P2Pool consolidations, yes blocks will get smaller

<s​trawberry:monero.social> but I don't think that is the case

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> From what I did heat, FCMP will prune better, while being bigger TX normally

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> s/heat/hear/

<d​arkhappyman:monero.social> oh okay thanks

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> s/s\/heat\/hear\//I hate sed syntax/

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> SyntheticBird It's for IRC people

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> Not simply p2pool, but regular volume prefers 2in put, not to mention "pocket change (or dust)" occasionally consolidation multiple outputs

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> ik but i'm racist of IRC

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> Currently a p2pool consolidation csn be up to 100kb at 148inputs

<s​trawberry:monero.social> 2/2 txs are still bigger I believe

<s​trawberry:monero.social> unless you meant something else

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> were on the same page

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> Im just saying (but not sure) that other tx are all/mostly smaller

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> Multi output tx(?), multi input tx(?)

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> Example a 148/2tx and a 2/16 tx

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> Other thing aside from size is verification time
