00:01:17 Gm 06:24:33 You were talking to me I’m confused. Now is there cybersecurity risk if u run a fully open node accessible from the internet 07:01:42 You can safely open port 18080 (or whatever is the p2p port if not default). Do not open 18081 unless you know what you are doing. 08:39:43 And for port 18081 is it if I want to build explorer ? 08:41:58 What can go wrong with, how dangerous? 09:14:55 An explorer will need 18081, yes. You'll want to use --restricted-rpc, since the whole RPC set is not intended for hostile use. 09:15:35 I *think* it should be enough. It'll block things like mining, stopping... 09:16:12 oh just open your ports@ it's fine 11:19:39 whats the smallest / lightest linux distro that monero "just builds" on? Arch? 11:33:35 debian? 11:33:55 also Arch yeah 11:33:57 ig 11:43:20 Maybe alpine? but will have to install some dependencies ofc 12:48:30 Can anyone recommend a good linux distro to run on old macbooks? 13:18:11 Can you please further explain what is the risk of opening 18081, please 13:27:27 milas900 https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/jdms4b/comment/g99k0fr/ 13:28:11 18081 could be the restricted port of your node, depending on config 13:29:03 mooo has already answered this, how far would you like to go 13:59:07 Alpine is slow at update and it requires dedicated patch to build and work properly 14:11:52 at updating monero package i mean 16:10:37 While patch are required there in there apk git. Did manually build 0.18.3.4 without an issues with them. Will do 0.18.4 soon 19:06:40 Tbh I wouldn’t recommend Alpine to someone for lightweight dev work just because of musl :( 19:07:11 It's nice for server and stuff 19:07:34 Arch might be your best bet 19:07:34 Well, actually your better bet (the literal best bet would probably be some Linux from scratch shenanigans) 19:07:48 It’s a godsend for that stuff tbh 20:07:46 Solaris is way better just saying 20:23:19 i saw someone running fedora on an old macbook 20:23:35 https://www.reddit.com/r/Fedora/comments/x89lse/the_2015_macbook_pro_i_mentioned_in_my_first_post/ 23:04:14 I'm paying out contributors to my website in Monero. I just emailed 17,000 of my users about how to be paid in Monero for contributing to my software engineer interview preparation site. https://getcracked.io/submission 23:23:59 spam 23:27:20 Spam? 23:27:22 What spam?
