Carrot (…) is an upcoming upgrade for Monero’s FCMP++ protocol.

that’s interesting to say. isn’t FCMP itself an upcoming upgrade?

edit: did not intend this as a response

Though on the other hand giving fake info will make you look more unique and trackable.

will it if it’s not obvious? how?

hmm, I think it wouldn’t be really useful for monero mining. even with p2pool mini you need hours on a simple machine to find a block, and you are waiting just for a short time on these bot verification pages/menus.

Like at least if they could be given work units to very briefly preform micro prime number calculations, at least there is some mathematical value in that.

if you can adequately verify the correctness of the results, that could be worth something yeah

to be more specific, I have read in monero circles a few times that it was a deliberate decision that a miner can’t be implemented in WebAssembly

as I understand that doesn’t work on the web, with Monero, because of a Monero design choice

I was listening to it a few weeks ago, but vaguely there are auditing companies in the Netherlands that need to verify companies above a certain size whether they are handling their money properly. As I understand it includes tax accounting.
These auditing companies don’t like cryptocurrencies. There are several of these that don’t agree to audit Proton even because they are accepting Bitcoin, but none of the remaining would accept it if they were also accepting a second cryptocurrency.

Now that I think of it, it might have actually been the reason they don’t accept Monero as a payment? In that case, the reason for Proton Wallet being bitcoin only has something to do with another wallet’s developers having been jailed recently for handling multiple cryptocurrencies.

I recommend you to listen to it though, if you understand english speech. There were interesting topics (and Opt Out generally has interesting episodes).
This episode is 54 minutes, audio only. You can find it here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1790481/15505787-proton-wallet-w-andy-yen.mp3.

they can only support one coin legally. for details check out the Opt Out podcasts’s episode about this topic

Spend it where you can, not many places.

there’s a surprising amount of sites where you can buy gift cards with Monero, for a lot of services. there’s also a few where you can buy a prepaid card

But to be honest - it’s only IP and phone number.

what guarantees they won’t hand over chat history? if police requested that, could they say no?

posts on durov’s channel have been like that for some time

the libgen channel was practically eliminated in the last week

and they do so legally,

the problem lies right there

i understand, and sorry if I offended you. my problem was you were referring to a legal expectation as if that should be everyone’s personal expectation

maybe no legal expectation, however I ask you when were you or any other common person asked about legal expectations. don’t come with “everyone at election”, because everyone knows its not true, in any sense

in my understanding offset is technically the “relative index”, or how much you have to go further

you aren’t. to me this is just PR

I’ll try this, thanks. but to fill in some missing context from my part, this is what I have been experiencing for the little more than a year I’m running an I2P router.

the catch is that you don’t own that camera, only the manufacturer does. besides requiring an account and a connection to china to be able to use it, they have access to both your network, and to the camera feed. they’ll use the network info to gather info about you, and the camera feed to train their face and gait recognition AIs, possibly also for intelligence

oh that was it, the account requirement was what I wanted to remember but couldn’t! was sure it was something even worse, thanks for the help.

yeah if I would buy such a TV by accident, I would bring it back within the return period and tell that it was faulty, because it is.
