01:46:18 <br-m> <gzx:metropolis.nexus> I knew it couldn't have just been the country! Thanks nioc—will have to watch now since 80's will always be the most golden age of moviemaking
08:11:42 <br-m> <sentryprivacy:matrix.org> I plan to convert most of my funds into XMR in the future.Is it safe for foreigners to buy XMR from Kraken?
08:11:42 <br-m> <sentryprivacy:matrix.org> Will they prevent withdrawals after depositing funds,Or proactively report it to the government so they can cause you trouble.
08:20:37 <br-m> <pyratevevo:matrix.org> In any case, you can just buy LTC from them and then go to Trocador and swap to XMR.
08:22:37 <br-m> <dufebo98> May I ask why LTC instead of USDT or BTC?
08:22:49 <br-m> <pyratevevo:matrix.org> Or if your threat model is that high, go get shafted by the RetoSwap sellers.
08:23:06 <br-m> <pyratevevo:matrix.org> @dufebo98: No reason, just an example.
08:24:49 <br-m> <dufebo98> Thanks
08:29:23 <br-m> <pyratevevo:matrix.org> It is quite fast and has low fees. Personally never experienced trading btc or Tether yet.
08:31:53 <br-m> <sentryprivacy:matrix.org> Thank you. I'm not considering using the mixer for now because of the exchange rate loss. My funds are currently clean.
08:32:27 <br-m> <pyratevevo:matrix.org> What mixer ?
08:34:24 <br-m> <pyratevevo:matrix.org> The exchange rate shouldn't be more than 2% last I checked.
10:12:55 <br-m> <milas900:matrix.org> How can AI help me to explore more about monero ? Maybe link it to GitHub or what’s the best thing to do
10:21:57 <br-m> <kayabanerve:matrix.org> An LLM cannot. You should read about Monero via community documentation which has been reviewed and revised for years
10:23:10 <br-m> <intr:unredacted.org> also, pester the devs, relentlessly
21:16:00 <marsupialSoup> this where the cool kids hangout?
21:16:26 <btcdwed> not anymore.
21:16:28 <br-m> <gan:skhron.org> Ahem, CIA agents, that is.
21:16:34 <br-m> <gan:skhron.org> Sure
21:16:43 <marsupialSoup> is the element matrix more active?
21:17:01 <br-m> <gan:skhron.org> what that supposed to mean?
21:17:27 <br-m> <gan:skhron.org> There's nothing that's called Element Matrix, Matrix is a protocol and Element is a client
21:18:11 <marsupialSoup> is matrix more active then?
21:18:22 <btcdwed> DYOR
21:19:00 <br-m> <gan:skhron.org> Depends, certain IRC channels aren't bridged to Matrix, while others are
21:19:11 <br-m> <gan:skhron.org> furthermore I'm writing from Matrix by the way
21:25:11 <marsupialSoup> cool, thanks
22:02:46 <br-m> <snjya:matrix.org> An opinion based question to people who interact with more people than me: how many in the general folk (so called Normies) do you think know about xmr?
22:04:51 <br-m> <snjya:matrix.org> Also, why are so many people so hyper specialised? Is it just my personal impression or does anyone here share it?
22:07:45 <br-m> <snjya:matrix.org> I wanted to have a small chat about digital Id, cbdc and stuff with my younger employees after a coffee meeting, they looked at me like I am a Swahili speaking boomer.
22:09:13 <br-m> <snjya:matrix.org> They are younger than me, they should have known more about the likes of Microsoft trying to trackour whereabouts and all that!
22:10:07 <br-m> <snjya:matrix.org> I felt stupid after that conversation.
22:11:06 <br-m> <snjya:matrix.org> As if I was speaking gibberish to those vape smoking children in suits.
22:15:48 <btcdwed> join #monero-offtopic
22:18:36 <br-m> <snjya:matrix.org> Okay, joined, thanks
22:21:37 <marsupialSoup> is that where all the cool kids went to?
