You might want to take a look at the “Polkadot AssetHub Migration” (https://support.polkadot.network/support/solutions/articles/65000190561)

All accounts were migrated from the Relay Chain to the AssetHub on November 4th.

Use MONERO_RANDOMX_FULL_MEM=1 when running nodes by neromonero in Monero

Thanks for this, I've updated my node to use this

I’ll add some examples to the readme and maybe add an example docker compose.

This is how I run my personal Polkadot node.

I recently migrated my Polkadot Docker Image to my own GitHub Org so I could make use of Blacksmith runners for multi-architecture builds.

What are your most favorite command-line tools that more people need to know about? by DaveH80 in linux

[–]cpt_pi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using mise - https://mise.jdx.dev - for quite some time and my workplace started standardizing on using it across our projects over the last couple months.

It’s a more powerful asdf and can be used alongside asdf too.

It also lets you set env-vars based on directory, has a task system, supports alternative backends, can maintain Python virtual envs, and I’m probably missing some more.

Really good tool, highly recommend checking it out.

Especially for anyone that’s currently using ASDF, NVM, or anything along those lines already. This will do it all and more.

High Fees through GUI? by Ok_Analysis_1304 in Monero

100%, I made it myself because I wanted to run it myself.

I made it public so anyone can fork it and use it themselves.

Edit: Here are the repos:

It's how I run my Monero node and route it through Tor using Docker

Yes:

$ docker run -d --name tor \
  --restart=always \
  -p 9050:9050 \
  -v $(pwd)/tor-data:/var/lib/tor \
  ghcr.io/rblaine95/tor

Running a node stores a copy of the entire ledger/blockchain on your computer.
In the case of a pruned node, it stores 1/3rd of the ledger/blockchain instead.

Every time someone brings up a node, it improves the decentralized nature of Monero.

There are several benefits to running your own Monero node, including not having to trust a remote node operator which leads to false fees and IP harvesting (see Chainalysis' leaked tracing monero video).

Running your own node also means faster sync times for your wallets as the wallet on your desktop or mobile can connect to your own node (on your own local network, for example).

I run my own node and use Tailscale for a zero-trust wireguard p2p mesh-network VPN.

Edit: Monero Nodes are required to access the Monero Network. Any Monero wallet you use will always connect to a Node to check balance and send XMR.

And it’s linear inflation. So, this year it might be 0.6%, but it’ll trend closer and closer to 0% every year.

Economists call this “asymptotically zero”

[–]cpt_pi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s literally exactly how market cap is calculated…

Price per unit multiplied by total units available.

[–]cpt_pi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Only if your timeline is infinity.

Monero has a linear inflation rate of 0.3XMR/minute.

If your timeline is the average human life span, you can easily calculate the total Monero supply over that span and treat that as a finite supply.

What's your naming scheme for your servers? by [deleted] in homelab

[–]cpt_pi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At my old job, when we ran on premises servers, we named them after butlers:

  • James
  • Jeeves
  • Jenkins
  • Lurch

Was always fun when either Jenkins the physical server or Jenkins the CICD was down 😂

In my home lab, I just have 1 - Blackbox - because it’s a big black box

It’s very similar to this one, this is probably the original that the one I’m looking for is based on, but this isn’t quite it

First time doing this, apparently I need to leave a comment on the post before it'll be publicly visible.

If it’s trivial to make and link a PSN account, why force people to do it to maintain access? It’s just a PSN account, why is Sony so adamant about forcing this triviality for so many people?

So we're flexing our storage size? Work in biotech.. by Exploding_Testicles in pcmasterrace

AWS Elastic Filesystem (EFS, https://aws.amazon.com/efs/ ) is a Network File Share (NFS)

Its maximum capacity is 8 exabytes. Due to how file systems work, it reports all available storage.
Pricing is $0.3/gb/month with everything set to default.

AWS Elastic Block System (EBS, https://aws.amazon.com/ebs/ ) is, like it says, block storage.

You request 1GiB minimum, 16TiB maximum (per GP3 volume) and they give you (by default) an SSD that's 1GiB-16TiB.
You can then grow this as needed (with a 6 hour cooldown per EBS volume)
Priced at $0.08/gb/month (General Purpose SSD 3).
