People improve through making mistakes. Free people make their mistakes faster. Nostrich since 761114.

I'll have to take your word for it.

Mysu has Moneroちゃん though so no contest.

sorry

too many big words

NGU maxis suck regulator cock

better?

How had I never used cakepay.com before?

Create an invoice for the gift certificate you need of the amount necessary.

Pay it with monero.

Receive gift certificate to Simplelogin alias.

Spend at your favorite store.

The whole process took 10 minutes (3? confs before they send the gift cert).

I probably wouldn't do it for daily stuff

but for those times you REALLY want to spend your XMR or BTC at some fiat-only merchant 👍

have fun seeking approval from rent seekers for your fiat gainz

in your exhaustive research, what properties of monero make you conclude it was shitty?

yeah I have hosted miners instead since running an asic at home is not really an option.

i mean

you could get a 50x in your lifetime...

but otherwise the ROI is like 100 yrs

yeah forget it.

I live off grid and all my electricity is from solar. you're talking like 70k USD in infrastructure investment to just run a single S21.

but if you have the setup anyway and some computers lying around,

you might as well mine monero 😁

I installed it after their big update to try it out.

It did not just work and I couldn't be pissed to screw around with it

I have fucked around with computer since the beginning of time and have never owned an Apple product.

He also informed me that this exists: https://news.bitcoin.com/ciphertrace-enhanced-monero-tracing-capabilities-governments/

So when people ask me "Then why does chainalysis have an LN risk assessment tool?" I can answer "For the same reason ciphertrace has one for monero: because exchanges will pay for it even if it doesn't work well"

cool

here's the CEO going on a monero podcast and explaining that they have NO determinisic tool for monero txs.

but you already knew that didnt you?

I use Kagi. Just bc I don't want to selfhost another thing.

Concerns are payment privacy and leaking your ip. but if you pay in obfuscated btc and use a vpn it should be ok for most threat models.

I live off-grid in the sticks

which is great and everything

but I need to be able to call someone if I drop a tree on myself
