<m​onerobull:monero.social> huh

<m​onerobull:monero.social> i banned the spammer nearly an hour ago

tx, can’t see on irc

<b​asses:matrix.org> not related to Monero, but I know there are many i2p fans here

<b​asses:matrix.org> tux.social/@Rhababerbarbar/113472389897098198

<b​asses:matrix.org> How to use i2p on GrapheneOS, using mull (firefox)

There is InviziblePro, you can get from f-droid:

it's dns + tor + i2p (enable/disable whatever you want

<n​erap:matrix.org> Now I can finally escape the creepy network admin, who said to me that he can see all the websites I visit.

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> He still can unless u use tor or a vpn

hello all, is it common practice to switch to priority=unimportant ? if not, is there a fiscal reason why?

hey quick question, is there any way to speed up sync? At 82% it's slow as a snail. Beginning sync was blazing fast

I suspect that perhaps a slow node is halting the process.

seen via the download speed*

<s​nowman:tetaneutral.net> Sync percentage isn’t related to blockchain size. Just block number.

<s​nowman:tetaneutral.net> Recent blocks are much larger than earlier ones but this has no relationship to sync percent other than making you think it’s syncing slowly

<k​evino:tchncs.de> yeah its normal to see that. Can't do much about it.

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> sync_info

hello

<j​ohndoe427:matrix.org> hello

<e​scapismgalore:matrix.org> are there any trusted bootstrap addresses to speed up syncing?

<e​scapismgalore:matrix.org> it'll take probably a week or so to complete without

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> sync_info

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Its likely not a "slow peers" issue, and is likely a slow storage device

<e​scapismgalore:matrix.org> it's really so i/o heavy? ok.

<e​scapismgalore:matrix.org> not syncing to an ssd and explorer is lagging so, seems plausible.

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Type this into the terminal window that runs monerod

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Yeah, hdd might take weeks

<b​asses:matrix.org> >When you connect to cellphone towers: You’re using the modem which has an IMEI identification number. Using a DeGoogled phone and a VPN does NOT change this from revealing info about the hardware TO the TOWER, such as where it was bought. And who bought it.

<b​asses:matrix.org> >If you buy it in Monero, that solves the problem. But other DeGoogled providers charge more, while as we charge LESS:

<b​asses:matrix.org> he literally doesn't know what IMEI is and how cell towers work

<b​asses:matrix.org> buy it "anonymously" doesn't change the fact it still exists and ping to cell tower

<b​asses:matrix.org> buying it "anonymously" doesn't change the fact it still exists and ping to cell towers

Your phone sends 16 IMEI numbers to the tower, one of which is yours, but the tower doesn't know which one. IF you call multiple times in a row, your phone picks 15 other fake IMEIs every time, allowing you to churn your calls and get more anonymity.

Shit. GPT: off.

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> I remember when you could use an Xposed shitty module on old rooted phones to modify your IMEI (it worked)

<b​asses:matrix.org> thought you were being serious lol

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> Full IMEI Membership Proof when ?

<b​asses:matrix.org> tested it?

<b​asses:matrix.org> reliable method?

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> yes

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> I think u still can

<b​asses:matrix.org> root + old, IMEI should be your last concern

<b​asses:matrix.org> root + old, IMEI tracking should be your least concern

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> But they made it paid? Proprietary? I dont remember. Was recent tho
