Here's Rucknium's latest article about the infamous #monero 18-block reorg: What happened, why it matters, and what it has to do with the annoying 10 block lock. If I could understand the whole thing enough to be able to do the diagrams, you can do it as well! But seriously, give it a read. It's important if you care about (and want to understand) Monero's inner workings and quirks better:

Monero

On September 14, 2025, a malicious mining pool successfully performed an 18-block “blockchain reorganization” of the Monero blockchain....

I've been using gupax.io for a week now, it really is easy and every hash makes #monero a tiny bit harder to mess with.

Interesting how we went from getting lambos to avoid starvation as crypto marketing:

If you haven't already, pirate the shit out of your favorite films and music. There's a chance you might not be able to access it in the future.

I stumbled upon a surprisingly fresh take on privacy by James Hoffman (the British coffee guy) on this interview: They way I understood it, keeping some of your endeavors to yourself kinda ensures that the reason you're doing them is truly yours, and not another seek for external validation. I've tried it myself and I consider it a very effective hack.

I managed to verstehen they're talking about meine vorstellung at min 30' but I need zwei more jahre auf klassen für verstehen if they liked it or nein. View quoted note →

Heads up Xenumonero's 's recap of the last day of #MoneroKon is out: I encourage people that speak other languages to do the same, it'd make the topics way more accessible to the rest of the world, increasing the chances of someone finding #monero. Ideally one video per topic, so for example someone searching for 3D printed guns will find your greek-spoken recap of Joseph The Parrot's kon talk and be one step away from #monero itself. Once the talks are out I'll do the same myself in Español probably at @cafemonero , so I do what I preach. Don't be shy. You can make it audio only. You can even make it text-only or voiced by an AI. But do it. Nowadays there are less and less excuses.

I kind of don't believe in free will, life feels like a movie that became self aware. Like those closed loop time travel movies when you were supposed to do what you ended up doing and causing the outcome you intended to avoid.

That's why I sound like an italian speaking spanish 🤌

Just listened to latest episode from @npub1s0th...l3mn with xenumonero, good conversation, nice companion for your daily chores. Check it out, I cannot understand episodes auf Deutsch, but the English ones are gold:

Holy shit using #deepseek with the DeepThink on is mesmerizing. 😶

That's a great game on the Epic store that you can claim for free just for today: https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/hell-let-loose-03f036 It's a "realistic" WW2 shooter, which teaches you how likely was that you'd died very fast on a real war.

I knew it!

Watched "Here" by #bobzemeckis last night and with that fixed camera camera and the characters fading in and out brought back memories of The 7th Guest.

For women to enjoy sex they need to feel it was their idea. For men to enjoy helping out or solving a problem we need to feel it was our idea.
