@sjw There are alternative implementations that don't require Java.

@sjw @xianc78 use the C++ version then https://github.com/PurpleI2P/i2pd

@twl @xianc78 Ugh

No.

I really wasn't looking for this much complexity. I'm tipsy so I'll stick to what I understand how to do,

I changed my hashing program a bit and now I'm getting much better hash rates.

How do you even get a vanity i2p address?

@sjw @xianc78 i2p addresses are set locally pretty much, you get a randomly generated .b32.i2p links like tor, but people add them to a local address book with a custom .i2p link, there are also sites that keep track of them (stats.i2p)

>Doesn't seem to be in ubuntu repos
you can just download the .deb from github releases

@twl @xianc78 Is there a program for generating vanity addresses? What algorithm is used for the addresses?

@twl @xianc78 NGL this is kinda out of sope to what I had planned.

@sjw @xianc78 nobody really generateds.b32.i2p because people just add the normal .i2p links to their address book, there are also "helper links" that look like http://sitename.i2p/?helper=atonofbullshitthattellsi2paboutthesite to automatically add it to the user's addressbook

also nobody uses i2p so its not too necessary to make a mirror for it

@twl @xianc78 Learning i2p is out of the scope of this project. Sorry.
If anything I'll add a .loki address next.

@twl @xianc78 Fuck it this is taking too long. My server has plenty of free threads. A nice -n 19 shouldn't hurt.

@twl @xianc78 Oh man! Even with a nice level of 19 the server (top) is getting so much better hash rate than my i7 laptop (bottom)!

@twl @xianc78 Gonna add my desktop into the mix

@twl @xianc78 Here's the hashrate of my desktop

@twl @xianc78 I guess I could also hash on my phone and my firewall....

@sjw @xianc78 patience is also valuable, how many characters are you trying to do?

@twl @xianc78 11

@twl @xianc78 I got an 8 an 7 letter one both in less than 6 hours on my desktop alone. I understand how exponents work tho. That's why I'm throwing so much at it.

@twl @xianc78 There's also a lot of luck based but I'm a lucky guy

@twl @xianc78 plus
