    VERY IMPORTANT: I was incorrect, the guys at r/Monero let me know that this is actually a more secure Hot Wallet, not a "dedicated air-gapped device" like what I said in the video. Check out the thread for the most up to date information here: www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/177thwm/i_built_my_own_monero_hardware_wallet_with/
    Also, a more secure way to do this is to generate a wallet seed with the networking disconnected. That would be optimal.

      it isn’t just a vm… It’s a windows vm running inside of a debian vm running inside of a qubesOS instance hosted on a 1984 server (payed for with mined monero), which I ssh into remotely from a burner laptop I bought on craigslist with counterfeit money (only ever handled with fingerprintless gloves) which was purchased off the dark web with silent-crypto-miner botnet ravencoin.
      Also, those “personal files” are fakes autogenerated with an LLM I wrote myself, in a programming language written by me personally (based on javascript), to mitigate deobfuscation of my operation selling kidnapped / stray dog feet pics to furries on deviant art.

    I missed the point where you installed your feather wallet on your large SSD. It appeared to me that you installed the wallet on your 16Gb tails flash drive. What was the point of the 1Tb SSD?

    • @NickTheHuman
      @NickTheHuman  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      good catch, I used a vid from something else for that part. you can put tails on the external ssd just as well. The point is: having enough storage space and speed to host the monero blockchain locally, which is THE way to do it if you actually value the project and it’s philosophy. Also, it’s the safest option for interacting with the network. it’s 100+ gb and increasing every day.

    • @NickTheHuman
      @NickTheHuman  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      first thing in my head: research linux terminal until you can navigate, then utilize ps command to see what's going on a bit more. when things freeze up it feels like its always related to memory consumption / cpu usage.
      Better answer: type "freezing when right clicking tails" into google

    • @NickTheHuman
      @NickTheHuman  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      idk what part of the vid ur referencing specifically; but generally in regard to zero-sum adversarial conflicts, defense-in-depth (layered stacking of defensive measures) is correlated with desirable outcomes historically from the perspective of the defender. This truth can also be applied with great success to systems / operations you wish to protect from adversaries within the digital battlescape.

    • @aijokker
      @aijokker 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@NickTheHuman Understood, the emphasis on defense-in-depth highlights the importance of multi-layered security. However, if the Monero wallet 11:43 itself is a vulnerability within Tailwind OS, it makes me question the overall efficacy of surrounding it with extensive security measures. Essentially, doesn’t a vulnerable core compromise the integrity of the entire system, despite the layered defenses?

    • @NickTheHuman
      @NickTheHuman  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      @@aijokker What you say is true, however: There's a good graph that displays an exponential curve, where as you increase security of a system, usability goes down, until you have the most secure, least usable security protocol. Every system is going to be vulnerable in some way, shape or form; you just have to calculate the amount of risk you are willing to incur. In the pinned comment, I linked the reddit post for this video: Go there if you wish to see the hyper-secure airgapped methodology. Definitely worth it for large sums of crypto, but way less usable

      My speech: That which I use to alter the world around me. To express my soul.
      No man at all, I think. I would cease to exist.
      For fun; if I should "self-censor", what shall I use to judge whether or not I ought to say some thing or another?
      Currently, it is the degree in which I laugh and smile. Do you have a better metric to go by?
      In the end, I shall die, and no one will remember me.
      I, as a speck of a speck in space held in focus for a meaninglessly small moment in time, will not disrespect the Gods and hold my tongue in fear of that negative outcome which resides within your imagination. If my words do indeed end up causing harm or death or destruction of my fellow man, so be it; I cannot see the future anyway. It is the will of whatever determines all things and their outcomes.
