mx_mandelbrot42, thank you sir. yes i will look in to doing all of the following. though i am probably going to just experiment with gupax for now as i already have it installed

mx_mandelbrot42, i am still synchronizing atm, so it will take me some time to get started, but i am excited

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Gupax should have remote nodes in it

it does, but i'm trying to use the local one (once it is ready)

bensharara: "What are ban lists?" Usually another way of saying "blacklist" because a few deranged lunatics back in 2020 decided that the word is "racist".

synchronizing monero is taking a very long time.. should i just download the block?

<k​law:matrix.org> That happened to me as well. I just gave up after 15 days when it said the same amount of time remaining

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Ssd ~24hrs

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Hdd ~weeks

<q​uickex:matrix.org> we start to work on fixed rates tho, so wanted to know is it preferable option for monero community

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Definitely useful for paying bills

hey everyone c: was wondering if it's possible to compile the monero-wallet-cli with as little dependencies as possible?

<j​effro256:monero.social> Run `make -j${nproc} release-static` do use static linking

@jeffro256 that'll compile just the CLI version of monero wallet?

<j​effro256:monero.social> Oh sorry, I thought you meant that you wanted to compile `monero-wallet-cli` with minimal dynamic dependencies

<j​effro256:monero.social> You just don't want to compile all the other stuff in the repo?

yes c: I basically want the bare minimum necessary to get a wallet setup, CLI only

was browsing through the github page and noticed dependencies like boost and wasn't sure if that's needed

<j​effro256:monero.social> Sorry, there's not really an easy way to do that. Anyways, the wallet is the thing with most of the dependencies anyways (except maybe UPnP). IN the README, there's a column labeled "Optional", and any row with a "NO" is a required dependency

<j​effro256:monero.social> The boost dependency is definitely required, it's used everywhere in the code

<j​effro256:monero.social> Technically, you don't need `libboost-all-dev`, you can install just the boost modules you need, but it's quite a few

<j​effro256:monero.social> We use Boost's chrono, date-time, filesystem, locale, program-options, regex, serialization, system, & thread

just for clarification, the modules you listed are the ones I can install separately? or are they the only modules used within libboost-dev? Thank you for the help btw!

<j​effro256:monero.social> Yes, your package manager should let you install those seperately

<j​effro256:monero.social> For example, in the README, the Debian/Ubuntu install one-liner is: `sudo apt update && sudo apt install build-essential cmake pkg-config libssl-dev libzmq3-dev libunbound-dev libsodium-dev libunwind8-dev liblzma-dev libreadline6-dev libexpat1-dev libpgm-dev qttools5-dev-tools libhidapi-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libprotobuf-dev protobuf-compiler libudev-dev libboost-chrono-dev libboost<clipped message>

<j​effro256:monero.social> -date-time-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-locale-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-regex-dev libboost-serialization-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-thread-dev python3 ccache doxygen graphviz`

<j​effro256:monero.social> Instead of installing `libboost-all-dev`, which is pretty huge, you can install just `libboost-chrono-dev libboost-date-time-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-locale-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-regex-dev libboost-serialization-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-thread-dev`

fantastic, thank you! i'll get around to putting this together soon enough :D

<f​:monero.social> Are these Gitlab pipeline-/job-errors of any relevance to my CCS MR?

<f​:monero.social> repo.getmonero.org/fullmetalScience/ccs-proposals/-/pipelines

<r​ottenwheel:unredacted.org> [@f:monero.social](https://matrix.to/#/@f:monero.social) I think you could try adding a blank line at the end of your proposal description, like [here](repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/c…8a2d58f77949de904a55750c9d9a47_0_56).

<r​ottenwheel:unredacted.org> Line [299](repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/c…cffafc65021c259e1d6b03330815f_0_298), blank line.

<p​lowsof:matrix.org> dont worry about it for now

<f​:monero.social> Adding the newline seems to have been without effect.

<f​:monero.social> What's the job's intent?

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Dont listen to rotten

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> repo.getmonero.org/fullmetalScience/ccs-proposals/-/jobs/1643

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Looks like the runners are broken. (Listen to plowsof)

<p​lowsof:matrix.org> its just a pre-parser that checks formatting and other quirks of needing to display on the idea/funding pages. it runs on an external machine, which only i can run arbitrary code on because some people are mean :( workflow is green

<d​aknig:matrix.org> hey, what decentralized exchanges are recommended? what about bridges? recently I feel like the internet is dead, cant find good info anywhere, everything is crap generated by AI

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Haveno, basicswap

Well, there are not that many true DEXs right now in the first place :)

i feel like monero dexes are just buzzwords with zero actual trading volume

Trading volume on Haveno and BasicSwap is certainly still quite modest, but not stand at "actually zero real trading"

<j​effro256:monero.social> I've used it before for non-trivial amounts. Works quite level

<f​ijxu:nadeko.net> I use trocador.app

<f​ijxu:nadeko.net> It's a bit harder if you want to get your money into FIAT but you can just use a stable coin like USDT or USDC

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Thats now a dex

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Not*

<f​ijxu:nadeko.net> you are right

<d​aknig:matrix.org> but not pancakeswap?

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Right

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Pancake has nothing 2 do with xmr

<3​21bob321:monero.social> Can i eat it ?

<j​effro256:monero.social> Can I kick it?

<r​ottenwheel:unredacted.org> It shows in ideas though. :D ccs.getmonero.org/ideas

<r​ottenwheel:unredacted.org> 'Da' Crypto Vigilante with Rafael LaVerrrde and Jeff Berrrwick!

<i​ntr:envs.net> I see

"Synchronize a pruned node from scratch: You will download and sync only 1/3 of the full blockchain." - I think this bit is misleading

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Not really

XMR blockchain is about 220 GB now, but my node downloaded 170 GB even with pruning enabled. Granted, it still ended up with a 90 GB file which is roughly correct, but traffic-wise it downloaded a lot more.

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> ah, the "download" part

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Yes, it downloads 100% of the blockchain

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> And syncs 100% of it. It prunes after each batch syncs

I'd change "download" to "save", or clarify it further perhaps

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Yea
