03:58:26 <m-relay> <i​axat:matrix.org> A small query - to mine P2Pool do i need a dedicated software or can be done using Monero GUI?
05:51:55 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> GUI includes p2pool. P2pool includes a miner. P2pool's miner is (by default) a bit slower than xmrig
05:52:33 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> If you want peak hashrates, use xmrig or gupaxx, otherwise you can just use gui
11:49:46 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> how do i setup a wallet?
11:50:55 <hv-bridge> <wearethelifersyetagain> wallet.mymonero.com for a web wallet (insecure), or monero gui wallet (sync blockchain to hard drive)
11:51:08 <hv-bridge> <wearethelifersyetagain> yes, literally called "monero gui wallet"
11:51:30 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> so does itt give me a wallet id?
11:51:36 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> sry im js running the setup rn
11:51:46 <hv-bridge> <wearethelifersyetagain> yes
11:52:09 <hv-bridge> <wearethelifersyetagain> wallet.mymonero.com is easier to use doesnt require installing anything but dont store large sums of money in it atleast D:
11:53:14 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> tbf im probs gonna just mine on an old opeiplex
11:53:28 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> not gonna make money but atleast wont burn my house down like my space heater
11:53:44 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> like the cables burnt my carpet 😭😭
11:54:17 <hv-bridge> <wearethelifersyetagain> then you're fine with it
11:54:23 <hv-bridge> <wearethelifersyetagain> write down your resulting passphrase
11:54:28 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Prob a waste of electricity
11:54:48 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> yea
11:54:55 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> but itll warm my room
11:55:06 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> possiblly
11:55:15 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> i mean its a intel core i5 7500
11:55:27 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> it cant do much
11:56:20 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> i wouldnt use mymonero unless you have data(bandwidth) constraints
11:57:38 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> also should i run it with linux or is windows good?
11:58:43 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> linux is a better idea
11:59:09 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> You can just use a mobile wallet too tho. No need for desktop
11:59:24 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> alr, i dont wanna be switching hdmi cables hella so i should setup ssh huh
11:59:51 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> For wut
12:00:10 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> to setup the mining
12:00:33 <m-relay> <s​yntheticbird:monero.social> -=D3V1L=-: Best profile picture ever encountered hands down
12:01:18 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> let me add in another ssd to it, it has a windows 500gb, hackintosh 250 gb, and im adding in a 500gb drive for linux
12:01:43 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> i kinda want to add a gpu to it but its a sff so not rly possible :(
12:01:47 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> cheaply
12:32:18 <m-relay> <j​ulian145:matrix.org> so apparently the ssd i put in the thing already has olpen ssh so we're in luck
12:43:59 <m-relay> <p​rivacyx:monero.social> Happy kwanzaa🥳
14:51:12 <rahl> I'm trying to get sha3 hashing working for dealing with xmr addresses. Trying to use https://codeberg.org/maandree/libkeccak at the moment. Seems I'm getting bad output when comparing against a decoded test address from a cli wallet
14:51:44 <rahl> Looking at the c++ source for xmr's keccak implementation I can't determine what specs have been used
14:52:56 <moneromooo> Monero (via Cryptonote) uses pre-SHA3 Keccak, as the standard did not exist just yet at the time. IIRC the differences are minute.
14:54:01 <moneromooo> Keccak's also a small bit of code. You can just lift monero's if the licence is to your liking.
15:09:44 <rahl> ack, thanks moneromooo 
15:09:52 <rahl> Good to know
15:12:41 <rahl> The license is probably not an issue for me so might just do that...
19:32:07 <m-relay> <i​su0:matrix.org> Hello, I’m just getting started with Monero 😊
19:32:08 <m-relay> <i​su0:matrix.org> Right now, I use a Visa card -> Metamask -> SimpleSwap -> Monero to buy XMR, but the fees are adding up because I’m using a few different services. Is there a more affordable way to do this?
19:32:22 <m-relay> <l​oeasy6:matrix.org> Hello
19:32:45 <hv-bridge> <wearethelifersyetagain> localcoinswap?
19:33:42 <m-relay> <l​oeasy6:matrix.org> Personally I started mining monero to get it but you could try atomic swaps, If I ever buy XMR, I would simple swap to buy it then btc -> monero
19:34:46 <anonim> You can buy litecoin from cake wallet (mobile), then easly swap it to monero.
19:43:10 <m-relay> <i​su0:matrix.org> Thanks 😊
19:43:23 <m-relay> <l​oeasy6:matrix.org> You're welcome
19:44:07 <BlueyHealer> One of the latest releases of Haveno says it now allows buying XMR without a deposit...
19:44:24 <BlueyHealer> Haven't tried though.
21:06:10 <m-relay> <p​rivacyx:monero.social> That is correct there is a limit to max of 1 XMR but it will open up the path to Monero for new users.
21:12:17 <m-relay> <w​illiamfargo:tchncs.de> What do you guys think about gnu taler? EU financed project for anonymous payment customer-side
21:12:25 <m-relay> <w​illiamfargo:tchncs.de> Independent of currency
21:24:27 <BlueyHealer> From what little I've listened about it on Libreplanet, seems like that is not quite equivalent to XMR, it's more of a card replacement with the lack of receiver privacy.
21:24:51 <BlueyHealer> So they'd apparently need to coexist
21:25:14 * BlueyHealer just remembered a paper she wanted to read on it but there's no time now
