<kevino:tchncs.de> dies this update fix that dns check warning in monerod?

<kevino:tchncs.de> does*

<kevino:tchncs.de> what does the dns warning actually mean ? anything to be concerned about ?

<rbrunner7> Yes, that update so shortly after the previous one was done to fix that DNS problem.

<rbrunner7> I would say just update to have the issue go away. But anyway, the problem does not seem to be too catastrophic; you can find technical details here: monero-project/monero #11537

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> @rbrunner7: the biggest issue is probably the loss of the dns blocklist

<ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> so a privacy issue for those who used it

<p4xxus:matrix.org> I saw my first don't buy monero sticker in the wild today (or at least where I was consciously aware of) :o

<p4xxus:matrix.org> I haven't really found any where to buy them, is it smarter just printing them somewhere or is there some monero merch shop somewhere haha

<thomasbuilds:matrix.org> are u saying u made that sticker 🤨

<pw:xmr.mx> theres someone in France who posted pics and and info on some stickers he made/printed. someone here might remember who it was and could tag him, incase your also.in France.

<thomasbuilds:matrix.org> monero doesn't need a sticker

<pw:xmr.mx> if you know you know

<p4xxus:matrix.org> @thomasbuilds:matrix.org: no no, I meant that it was the first I've seen

<p4xxus:matrix.org> @thomasbuilds:matrix.org: but its still kinda cool imo

<muffin:catgirl.cloud> based things don't need commercials

<muffin:catgirl.cloud> but just showing off what you love isn't a commercial

<muffin:catgirl.cloud> if its a community project that is

<pw:xmr.mx> @muffin:catgirl.cloud: be a diffent story if a well hung guy just whipped out his chopper in public here and there though

<ofrnxmr> You love well hung guys?

<is0d0pe:matrix.org> What

<pw:xmr.mx> @ofrnxmr: fuck sake. i see how my message come across now after your comment, and reading my comment again.

<pw:xmr.mx> i already buy your OF feet picks... so I guess the next step is due? if you are, yano....  :D

<pcre:matrix.org> Is there an xmrsigner channel here?

<pcre:matrix.org> I'd like to know in what format unsigned and signed transactions are transmitted: Base64, hex, or binary?

<plowsof:matrix.org> xmrsigner uses github.com/Foundation-Devices/foundation-ur-py , what option is raw bytes?

<pcre:matrix.org> Ok. monero-wallet-rpc transfer returns a hex value: "unsigned_txset": "4d6f6e65726f20756e7369676e6564207478..."

<pcre:matrix.org> I could use xxd -r -p unsigned.hex > unsigned.bin

<pcre:matrix.org> to convert the hex value into a raw byte.

<pcre:matrix.org> I prefer HEX over raw binary. HEX is also safer for terminal-based workflows over SSH. It works reliably with shell variables, pipes, text-processing tools, and copy/paste. Raw binary may contain NUL bytes or terminal control characters, making it unsuitable for some shell operations.

<pcre:matrix.org> Downside double the data. - fair point but raw bytes are probably a poor design decision. Stick to the UNIX philosophy text streams.
