CLI v0.13.0.2 'Beryllium Bullet' released!

https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/9na46l/cli_v01302_beryllium_bullet_released/

This is the CLI v0.13.0.2 'Beryllium Bullet' point release, which a user, service, merchant, pool operator, or exchange should run to be sufficiently prepared for the scheduled protocol upgrade of October 18 (for which more information can be found here).



Great, has there been any talk of when the pruning will take place?

It will probably be fully implemented in v0.14.

Smiley thx

They banned me from the discord channel bc I wanted to trade an 8 GPU 1070ti rig for a bcu1525. This upset them and they banned me. I see a lot of people wanting refunds I was trying to help out

Thats not a good enough reason to ban someone.
They need an attitude adjustment whoever moderate the discord channel.

Hence why I called the place a circle jerk, that and reddit you get modded away for dissenting non koolaid drinking views.

my 1st assembly language program was on a trs-80 model one.. it was pretty much this:

                            LOAD A, "E"
LOOP_OF_DEATH:  PUSH AF
                            GOTO LOOP_OF_DEATH

i did it to see how fast i could fill the screen with the letter "E" vs BASIC code (POKE x,y) as with BASIC you could see it fill as the loop executed.  with PUSH i figured the stack would grow till it filled all memory, including the memory mapped video screen. it did. not to mention overwriting itself eventually of course.

with the machine language code the screen was instantly filled and the machine locked up before i could even begin to take my finger off the RETURN key heh. i was impressed. helped me understand just how fast straight machine code was vs interpreted code.

Nice, I'm surprised the screen filled and the stack didn't crash the system quicker without popping those back off. Doh. Been awhile since I even thought of dealing with push pop and that was 8085 assembler for me.



Busted! Smiley

Zcash is a ship that is almost the same as Monero and his friends. Secondly, Kryto to present a confidentiality of payment instruments, is now also starting to be talked about in an industrial setting. Related to speculation the prospect of ZCASH is now increasingly rampant. proxy for zcash tokens where you can buy and trade them

Completely untrue, Monore is a 100% TRUSTLESS system while Zcash is a trusted setup as zn-snarks must be.

Seems insane to make such a large challenge when you plan on doing others.

I'd like to see the OP move the funds before i even bothered to start something like this.

IBM 650.

"The IBM 650 is a decimal computer made from vacuum tubes in pluggable units with magnetic drum main memory. The basic system consists of the computer itself with a front operator panel, the power supply which is the same size but featureless and the IBM 533 card reader/punch that was the input/output device."

...

No fair that doesn't fit in your bedroom!


I learned machine language 6502 on the Vic20 and later got the commodore64 which was 6510... I started on a Timex/ Sinclair ZX81.  Used to stay up all night programming.
Ah the good old days.


Did you have to build the sinclair?


I pioneered the JNR - jump never return whilst at university working with machine code

Cheesy

JW, Congrats on the win!

I was concerned that FitzMagic would get pulled and meant to swap him out but didn't get to it in time. I didn't find out until sunday morning that he was on such a short leash after putting up such great numbers. That and I wimped out and benched My Rams Wide outs because I expected the Vikings D to bounce back like big boys and not turn into the little girlies they stayed! Well those are my excuses and I'm sticking to them!

And your teams just smoked up the field, great match. Smiley

And another one! I can almost taste that sweet, sweet Barolo now. Tongue

Just kidding, I was not digging my team to start the year - can Newton and no good rbs, but automagic drafting working out again so far this year (I'm also in Vertcoin league where auto drafting not working out so well, 2-3 so far).

The stars are aligned!

Stinking OBJ did shit all year and then this week decided to catch up with the entire league in one game even throwing his own touchdown! I think he found out he was playing against me! Cheesy

what a prima-dona he is.

And the TI "Expansion Box". I  built a 12v/5v power supply, and added a *second* 5.25" floppy. I think it held 90k.

W0w I thought 16k was the shit !


olde skool stuff heh. well older, anyway.. used a pdp-11 in school. 12 bit i think. 8 inch floppies. no vacuum tube stuff though. THATS olde skool for sure.

had a timex sinclair 1000 too. with 16k expansion pack and the sparky printer. breath on any of it and instant lockup.

never had the ti-99/4 though. i should buy one just for my collection Smiley

Don't forget to get a GE cassette deck for storage. Tongue

Oh wow cool is that really a movie or just some fan made video? I would give a lot of bitcoin to watch a movie like this. Needs to have Dan Radcliff as the protagonist though. Would you like a merit? I am giving you a merit.

Why thank you. Smiley

They are raising funds I believe to make it.

99% that almost anything under this line is a scam that will ending @ zero in the next 5 years ?? ??  Roll Eyes




100% chance that 99% of anything under that line is a scam. Cheesy

JUST saw this one : Expecting a big $btc move over the next 30 days and then a whooooole lotta chop. let it be i'm always in for a pump




Beautiful sight that is.

Better than 6502. I think the whale that is running the market was a VIC20 owner.

wasnt it a 6510 in the VIC20. it had added some dedicated i/o pins vs the 6502 or something IIRC.

or maybe that was just the C64.. i had both.

fun times but i got more into the TRS-80 line with CP/M and such after.

An order that Copytrack be entitled to trace and recover the 529.8273791 Ether Tokens received by Wall from Copytrack on 15 February 2018 in whatsoever hands those Ether Tokens may currently be held.
seems legit Roll Eyes


our pants
must be returned acc. to law of Canada

I read about half of that and said wtf am i wasting my time for. Is that an order to hardfork their chain?
Interesting that the guy died in the middle of the proceedings.
Those ETH tards have set precedence that they don't consider their chain immutable.
They set themdselfs up for this. Smiley

Sidechains are bringing ICOs to Bitcoin. In this case RSK brings ETH to Bitcoin.

I thought that is what Tether is on Omni?


Nice Lambo in Sydney



I know that it's McLaren 570S

McLarens are my Favorite Lambo's !!! Cheesy

Definitely would love to have one.



Edit:  Tentatively, I don't have any reason to believe that the information on that website is cooked, as bitserve suggests...   but I am definitely wiling to consider evidence to show that the information is "cooked"


If you really believe there are 1.6 *TRILLION* USD already parked on the exchanges waiting to buy BTC (at whatever price, no matter how low) then it is ok. I, on the contrary, would need to be shown evidence of that outrageous claim to even consider it a remote possibility.

Other than that I guess it's just a matter of faith.

I have to agree that I don't believe those numbers (not just the BTC) and since I was unwilling to enable the JS on that site I didn't spend much time trying to vett it.

In Communist China, Bitcoin hodls you

WHen he gets out those coins will have made it worth it. Cheesy

Upcoming Bulletproof update should definitely make some excitement. Many will say it is already priced in, but i cant be really. There will be publicity about it and that publicity will be exactly about what is best in Monero.

This was exactly what I was discussing in another channel. A lot of people come and talk about better privacy coins and start comparing stuff to Monero, then they realize actually Monero is in constant development and catching up very quickly in some of the tech,,, just that they were not aware about it until they learnt. Monero has this thing that it makes headlines very well without marketing, because the adopters are happy to share.

And definitely,,, none of this is priced in until the spikes happen!

That, or it's already priced in cos there are no spikes happening...  Think about it.  Bulletproofs is already public knowledge.

It may be public knowledge but the major impact this upgrade will have is probably hard to quantify until put into practice.
People need to experience bulletproofs and talk about it to fully understand. Honestly, I fall into this category.

Don't get me wrong, I go back and forth on this. It may not even be a blip on the radar come Oct. 18th.

We had  quite a long discusion on it when it was bring pushed to be included before proper vetting and that is probally why we have not been discusing it as much right now.

It is a HUGE improvement and should effect the entire Eco system as nodes can be run in many more locations now. Synch times with such a large chain have been an issue for alot of people and although I havn;t tried it on a rasberry , I doun't doubt it can be a hair pulling experience on a poor connection.

Speaking of which @Jwintern, did you ever get the node running on that Orange?
