syntheticbird:monero.social: "Fun fact: Calcium is a metal." And also a nutrient.

One of the over 15 nutrients not found in any plants.

Kale shows similar calcium absorbability to that of milk

<h​ardhatter:monero.social> Vegetables tend to have a lot more calcium than meat. Meat has relatively little. Excessive calcium intake for adults is a bad thing

Kale has so many anti-nutrients in them, that so-called calcium absorbtion gets blocked, if it even is human absorbable calcium at all.

Green leafs in general also cause kidney stones.

If aten too much of it at least. 4 kg of spinache is enough to kill an adult human.

Who has died eating kale lol

I hope nobody is retarded enough to eat enough kale needed to kill you.

Spinach and similar blocking calcium absorption is way overblown

Great, we now have 3 off-topic channels :D

What we do know is that if you eat oysters (which are packed with nutrients), and then eat almonds (which have many anti-nutrients) within 2 hours, iron absorbtion gets halved. Eat both together, and iron absorbtion is almost nothing.

Is there a 3rd?

Community earlier today

And other days

Today only just started for me, because it's morning on my end.

wow so much science here

nutrition science is the best science ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

<i​mprevisto:matrix.org> anyone have advice on top few DEXes to swap to XMR?

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> Basicswap

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> Unstoppable swap (or something like that)

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> I do have experience with unstoppable.

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> I like it and it work fine assuming your net is reliable

<i​mprevisto:matrix.org> unstoppable came up as positive in other reading too

<a​mmortel:monero.social> I used trocador.app recently and it worked fine

<i​love9999:matrix.org> hey bros

<i​love9999:matrix.org> will fcmp solve everything?

<i​love9999:matrix.org> or will chainalysis still rape ppl

<r​avfx:xmr.mx> chainalysis will still rape peoples... that are using surveillance coins

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> A combination of Seraphis, Carrot and FCMP++ will solve many things.

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> Just out my blow for simplified versions:

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> kewbit.org

is seraphis still in play?

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> The white paper is completed

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> So is the implementation proposal

they may be completed but since seraphis, there have been a few new monero protocol upgrade proposals

afaik, we won't have the jamtis addresses that was slated to be introduced with seraphis

we won't have ringsigs that seraphis was going to increase the size of

what parts of seraphis are we going to have with fcmp++ + carrot is more apt to ask I guess

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> I’ll request updates from the research lab a post something

@k​ewbit:matrix.org yeah that would be nice

Probably as most of monero users I got lost about the monero protocol upgrade roadmap.

Which features, wen, what breaking changes, rust or no rust.. etc.

Also important, which previously planned upgrade proposals got shelved and why

hello all

I am new to this, I downloaded the Monero gui last night and created a wallet and let it download and setup the local node

today i tried telling it to mine, and it says connected + mining

but my cpu utilization is only 3% and it doesn't look like it's doing anything

how can i check, or get some better output?

Do you have a whole lot of cores ? It might thave started mining on just one thread.

32 cores

it's a amd 9950x

"0 blocks / 0 MB queued 0 spans, 0 MB " looking in the log the jobs say this

Sounds likely then, 3*32 is about 100. Check the settings for number of threads. If theres no such thinf, you can start mining in the daemon: starst_mining <ADDRESSHERE> N (N is the number of threads).

That is unrelated to mining.

ok

There's an "autodetect" mode for the best number of threads, check "help start_mining" it should mention it.

i had it set to use 28 cores

<k​ewbit:matrix.org> Yes, I’m actually making it my goal to try to simplify these things, not just with the Monero spec but the apps and ecosystem it’s clearly very complex, a lot of the math takes me a long time to get my head around but it’s important the benefits are clear so that people know what they are donating XMR for

moneromooo i.imgur.com/mWIdmLk.png

shouldn't i see a hash rate somewhere?

or some indication that it's actually doing something

Run "mining_status" in monerod. IIRC you can use the gui to send monerod commands, in settings somewhere.

This shold tell you the hash rate it's mining with.

thanks moneromooo

i hit stop mining, then start mining again and now it's working

displays a hash rate and like 70% cpu utilisation

K4r4b3y, read MRL

It was discussed the other day

Sounds like fcmp++ is feature complete, and faster than squashed seraphis as well. I'm not sure what unsquashed vs squashed means though.

ofrnxmr: "read MRL" <--- taking a look now.

"Carrot and Jamtis-RCT are for FCMP++" <--- Does Jamtis-RCT mean Jamtis-RingCT? If so, how is RCT relevant to FCMP++? I thought we were ditching the rings with FCMP++.

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> yes rct stamds for ringct. aiui, fcmp++ still uses ringct, but with a much larger ring.

reuben's comment, "Is there actually a compelling reasons for Seraphis after fcmp++" is probably shared by many monero users (me included).

<k​ayabanerve:matrix.org> kewbit: I wouldn't say that's the "combination" being discussed. Cryptographically, FCMP++ and Carrot achieve the security properties we want. Further wallet development and JAMTIS-RCT would achieve the rest of the UX. That leaves the Seraphis codebase as internal cleanup once it's moved over to the FCMP++ cryptography.

<k​ayabanerve:matrix.org> k4r4b3y: Honestly, I'd love to stop calling Monero RingCT and start calling it FCMP++ once it's deployed (just as we'd call it Seraphis). FCMP++ does replace rings. The thing is FCMP++ is backwards compatible with RingCT and was pitched as part of the RingCT composition (taking the place of the ring signature, not touching the balance nor range proofs). So despite defining a new c<clipped message>

<k​ayabanerve:matrix.org> omposition, and despite replacing rings, it's still kinda the RingCT system.

<k​ayabanerve:matrix.org> The intention for it to be compatible with RingCT even caused my own work to initially be called FCMP RingCT, and now when discussing JAMTIS yet for FCMP++, tevador named it JAMTIS-RCT (sorry if I'm not styling that properly) despite it being incompatible with the current RingCT system.

<k​ayabanerve:matrix.org> So that's a mess which may never sort itself out. The legacy RingCT composition being upgraded with FCMP++ into a new composition may still be referred to as RingCT.

Hi guys

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> Nohello.net

?

<v​tnerd:monero.social> dave.jp: it's arguably production ready now. Refactoring the I/o to be asynchronous will take some time, probably a few months to complete

"Honestly, I'd love to stop calling Monero RingCT and start calling it FCMP++ once it's deployed" <--- agreed.

<b​asses:matrix.org> people keep getting confused between Ring CT & Ring Signature

The "Ring" is the problem word here.

Everyone starts thinking in terms of "decoys" and then "the decoy amounts" whenever the word "ring" comes up.

This should be abandoned.

Monero, with FCMP++, shouldn't use the word decoy anywhere.

We should just say, all is encrypted (not obfuscated).

obfuscation == you can discern if you look hard enough

encryption == you cannot discern shit

holy cow. my fail2ban got a lot of activity today from my monero cnxn

just change the name to rabbit as it fits with carrot

FCMP tries to be descriptive but that doesn't seem to be working
