Install Tampermonkey (Chrome, Brave...) or Greasymonkey (Firefox).
I can confirm that Tempermonkey extension is available for Firefox (and Librewolf) browser as well, and Bitcointalk UserNotes works just fine with that.
Greasemonkey was not updated for years and I am not sure if anyone works on it anymore, while Tampermonkey was updated few months ago, but I think it's closed source.
I have only one request if possible, can you somehow enable easy option to export and import notes with member usernames?
Thanks again for great work!
3882  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: [β] BPIP Extension: user info & extra features add-on/extension, Firefox/Chrome on: August 29, 2022, 02:34:11 PM
Where's BPIP extension's source code? I want to read how to add content on a loaded forum page (e.g., "View Archive"), because apparently stackoverflow doesn't seem to help.
It's on suchmoon's hard drive aka cloud Cheesy
Maybe you should contact ibminer or suchmoon and ask them if they can give it to you or release the code in public.
I don't think they ever released BPI extension as open source software.

PS
I want to make one more suggestion to add this TryNinja script for putting personal notes on members:

This was originally posted here.

It adds a note field on each user's profile and posts. You can click the note itself to remove or change it.

P.S: Notes are only stored LOCALLY and will be lost if you uninstall the extension. Only you can see your notes.





Installation

- Install Tampermonkey (Chrome, Brave...) or Greasymonkey (Firefox).
- Add a new script and paste the code:

Code:
// ==UserScript==

"Enforce"? How has WasabiWallet enforced anything? Or are we each using a different definition of enforce? Because if Wasabi/nopara73 didn't accept the trade-off to block outputs from "illegal transactions", the government would still enforce "their regulations".
I think case with Mara mining pool was much worse than with Wasabi that still didn't implement any restrictions as far as I know, and we didn't see nearly as much complains in forum about that.
There was probably some insider information that regulators are preparing to ban all privacy related stuff, and it's only a matter of time when this happens to Bitcoin.
Instead of complaining about wasabi all the time, it's much better to work on stuff that would make wasabi obsolete... like protocol based privacy in bitcoin.

You would need to accept the coins, deposit them into a Wasabi CoinJoin and if Wasabi declines them, send them back and keep the bike.. Cheesy
Sounds like a lot of fun! Honestly, I don't see people switching from fiat to Bitcoin if that's the intended (by Wasabi team) way to accept Bitcoin..
Well it's not something so strange, and I see no difference with what's happening every day.
People return stuff purchased for cash all the time for bunch of reasons, paypal cashbacks, people don't like bike, people changed their minds, card declined, tainted stolen cash bills, fake cash bills...
Maybe guy who pays don't even know he is using stolen marked dollars, so he needs to accept return and pay with real dollars.

Anyhow, the Gerber files are below and will also upload design files shortly.
Who designed this and made Gerber files, you or someone made this for you?
It looks very cool and you even added your own bitcointalk username on PCB, nice touch Wink

I will continue to work on this project, so if anyone wants to chime in and / or help in this project (for example working on the power supply), don’t hesitate to comment or DM me! Any suggestions are welcome.
I am afraid that I am not even nearly enough skilled to help with power supply or asic miners, and I can only work basic electronic fixing, soldering, etc.
Maybe you should try contacting guy who is working on Computer Module 4 raspberry pi devices, for running bitcoin nodes.
He is called Mirek and you can also find him by the name MirkoPC.

3885  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Biometrics as private key? on: August 29, 2022, 01:09:59 PM
It also allows mass physical surveillance to be far more effective. Cameras monitoring an entire crowd are one thing - cameras monitoring an entire crowd linked to a handy database which already includes multiple scans of every single citizen's face are much better.
It's opening a can full of worms, and if you include payment in this combination than you are getting perfect tool for controlling and eliminating people.
You can probably turn off people with single push of a button and disable him any access for traveling and paying for anything, if he was not obedient enough.

This is a downside of biometrics in general. If your password is compromised or lost, it can be replaced. If your biometrics are compromised or lost, then tough luck. If I think a password, PIN, access card, physical token, etc., has been stolen or duplicated, then I can log in/phone up/visit/whatever the entity in question and rescind and replace whatever it is. If I think my face has been stolen from a database, then I'm screwed.
Exactly!
You can't replace and change your finger, I mean maybe you can with some huge reconstructive plastic surgery, but this would make drastic changes in your life.
I guess they could always create some backup and reset method, but imagine if (or when) hackers steal this information.
Talking about this subject, how do you think would Black Alien Project and Diablo Praddo pass any biometric verification?  Cheesy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSf1bko4iZg

By the way it would be interesting to have LN wallet based on NFC, where you may pay without camera/qr code scan.
I think it's idiotic and stupid to turn your body into antenna for any reason... because this is what NFT is.
But I am not surprised seeing some people puting horns, permanent paint in their eyes, and all other crazy stuff.
3886  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: [Megathread] Bitcoin Layer 1 Privacy - concepts, ideas, research, discussion on: August 29, 2022, 12:55:26 PM
Nothing unusual there.
Not unusual for shitcoin shenanigans  Tongue
It's just a company with workers and all other crap.
If I start to name all the shady stuff in zcash I would probably need days to finish exposing everything.

If you want to talk about shady history, look at Monero's Cryptonote origins with the Bytecoin scam [2] and the purposely obfuscated inefficient miner software [3]...
If you look my previous posts you will see that I said the same thing for monero, but they are still better than zcash in almost everything.
Some people even say that one country secret service (I won't name the country) is actually the one who is behind everything done in zcash.
Now if you look at nationality of some  scientists who worked on zcash and place they worked, you will understand better, it's not some anonymous guys like in case with Bitcoin.

Which is exactly why enforced improvement in privacy doesn't necessarily translate to improvement in utility or improvement in fungibility. Banning Zcash from exchanges due to it being a "privacy coin", means that all ZEC are essentially tainted.
Let's face it, nobody is using that crap for privacy, and you can easily confirm this onchain comparing number of transactions with everything else.
You can also look in Bisq exchange markets and you will see zec having zero volume there Smiley
3887  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Privacy Tips: Don't send round amount on: August 29, 2022, 10:22:20 AM
Paying $100 to miners seems like a waste of money for a very small potential improvement in privacy. There are better things to do with that amount: send it to a paper wallet for long-term storage, or use an instant exchange to turn it into LN funds.
Even some centralized exchanges are using Lightning for withdrawals and deposits, so it would be interesting to know if they can somehow track you and connect that with your identity.
So far I didn't see any way how they can do that, and we can always exchange LN back to bitcoin in different amount of coins.

Even better than this is to make your change a round number and your payment not a round number.
I think there is something in human nature that likes rounding numbers, but you can always donate few more sats and donate when you are paying for something.
If something is 0.01 BTC you can pay something like 0.010018642 BTC or any other random number, and I think this little trick would also work.

3888  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: A rooted phone for a crypto user safe ? on: August 28, 2022, 08:24:51 PM
I lost my phone days ago and now I got a used phone, the problem is this phone is rooted, I hope this doesn't carry any danger to crypto related security? Either wallets or stuff? I am careful not to import my recovery seed on the phone first, not before having a answer, I've also reformatted the phone through recovery mode but root is still present. Any Danger?.
What phone model are you using?
I would not used rooted phones for anything serious, but maybe you could install something like Divest OS or Lineage OS if you want more privacy with less bloatware.
Best thing would be to use any google pixel phone (even used) and you can easily install Graphene OS in no more than ten minutes, following simple instructions.
Than you should add good unique password and use only open source bitcoin wallets , but I would only do this for pocket money and small amount of coins.
More coins should be kept offline on cold storage of your choice.
3889  Other / Off-topic / Re: Recommended 2FA app for Windows on: August 28, 2022, 07:59:38 PM
I do not want to have both 2FA and my exchange accounts on the same device. Is there any 2FA app that is recommended that I can use on Windows?
KeePass would very good option like PowerGlove said, and you can use it as best password manager as well.
There is one application for wiNd0ws called WinAuth that is open source, it is not maintained anymore but it works just fine:
https://winauth.github.io/winauth/download.html

However, I would suggest switching to linux os (fedora or debian) for several reasons, and they have different applications like OTPClient, Authenticator, etc.
It's even better to use different device only for 2FA, this can be your old smartphone with Aegis app installed.

3892  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Krux DIY Hardware Wallet on: August 27, 2022, 08:44:19 PM
This week I finally had free time and I finally managed to flash one of my M5StickV device that was collecting dust, and I installed Krux firmware.
Whole procedure is very simple and it takes only few minutes to complete after downloading latest firmware 22.08.1 from Krux github page.
Nice thing is that you can do this easily on most operating systems like Linux, Mac and wiNd0ws, following instructions from Getting Started page:
https://selfcustody.github.io/krux/getting-started/



Turning on device for the first time shows you menu screen, so you can than Load Mnemonic or create new one using D6 (standard six-sided die) or D20 dices (20-sided die).
Loading Mnemonic can be done via QR codes (easiest option), or importing Text, Numbers and Bips using BIP-39 standard.
Note that importing seed words manually is time consuming, so I suggest generating seed words offline in any method you like and importing it with QR code.
Ian Coleman's BIP-39 Tool is able to generate mnemonic with QR code you can import to Krux, but you need to select 12 or 24 words.
After this you can Add Passphrase if you want, and choose between Single-key and multisig.



Device has miniature battery so it can work without any cable connection, it has camera with light, but there is no way to see how much battery is charged and I don't like that.
It's easy to open device with unscrewing two screws and you can see everything inside, replace battery, camera or any other part.
Navigation is not that great and it's done with two plastic buttons on both sides of device with main confirmation button that is on front side below screen.
To put things into perspective I have to say that device dimensions are very small: 48*24*22mm.

I will test how everything works, pair it with different wallets and post updates in future.

Feel free to ask us any questions you might have.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated!
I see you are not using cloudflare, so what protection you have against ddos attacks?
And what is maximum amount of Bitcoins people can mix on your website, or to rephrase it more correctly, how big is your Bitcoin fund?

Yes sure you're right it's a big claim, but we think currently the most centralized mixing services are scams, have too high fees or do not work reliably.
One mixing service I know is very reliable, constantly under attack and they don't charge any fees except accepting voluntary donations.
Very hard to beat that.

In 2017 we started our first mixing service on the Ethereum blockchain but we recently took it down because of the recent events in relation to tornado cash. Our bitcoin mixer was linked there as well and I can send you more information about that in a private message. We don't want to announce the exact name on here publicly because of legal reasons.
That would be like I open a beef stake shop, selling premium cuts in 2022, but few years before I was selling donuts in 2017 with different brand name.
I can't say that I am selling stake since 2017 or I would mislead customers, and it's even worse if I tell them some vague story of my first business.

3895  Other / Meta / Re: Additional security measures to keep account secure on: August 27, 2022, 03:37:32 PM
There should be option for high rank members to activate email verification. From time to time, when the member logs in using the username and password, it should send an code to the email to be entered on bitcointalk for login. While login, there should be option to trust the device for some days so that it does not affect user experience.
I don't want to use something like this connected with any email, especially if it's going to be mandatory.
Unless you are running your own server with email, there is always a chance that email could be unavailable temporary or permanently, they could be flagged as spam, or they could be shut down.
Only option for securing accounts I would cosnuder using is 2FA or fido hardware keys.
3896  Other / Off-topic / Re: LastPass - Notice of Recent Security Incident on: August 27, 2022, 03:29:33 PM
That depends. What you just described is not as secure as it would be if you started with KeePass from scratch without using passwords that originate from other software. If LastPass stores passwords or vault information on a centralized server somewhere (encrypted or unencrypted), exporting and importing that data elsewhere would be like exporting your seed from a hot wallet and importing it into a cold wallet and considering it to be cold storage from now on. It isn't.
You can't simply stop using all those passwords at once because you will lose access to all your accounts.
That is why I said to import them all, and you can later change them one by one, if you think something is compromised with lastpass.
Data should be encrypted and not exposed but I would follow what happens next with lastpass case.

KeePassXC and KeePassDX aren't the only fork/modification of Keepass though. Keepass website also mention several fork at https://keepass.info/download.html.
Yeah sure, you can use any keepass fork you want, but it's best to pick something that is updated on regular basis.
Important thing that forks should be compatible with each other with file formats.

Honestly, I have been thinking about alternatives to LastPass for some time. KeePass is a logical choice, but the only thing that's holding me back so far is the fact that I want to use LastPass on multiple platforms. I still have to explore reliable options to do this with a KeePass password manager.
KeePassXC for all desktop OS (LIN,MAC,win), KeePassDX for AndroidOS, there are extensions for Firefox and Chrome browsers, and you just need to remember (and backup) one master password.
KeePass allows importing of CSV files import (export it from LastPass); than you can keep KeePass database locally on all your devices, use your own server for hosting, or  some cloud for that (less secure).
Simple, secure and easy to use.

For all other open source alternatives you can check here:
https://alternativeto.net/software/lastpass/?license=opensource

I think that is why I do not use a password manager. I keep my password in the safest place on earth(My mind). Though I do use an external device to keep my password safe in case I forget them which usually does not happens.
If your mind is your safest place than you are just a time ticking bomb waiting to explode, and it's impossible to remember hundreds of passwords, but maybe you are using one more revolutionary (bad) thing - one password for all websites  Tongue
