Which is precisely why it cannot ever be shown in Scotland. Our broadcasting is only ever allowed to tell Scots how shite they are at everything.

I haven’t owned a TV set in decades, and I don’t do Netflix or any of those scams. I’ll use my own ways of getting whatever movies I want until the commercial entities start servicing me properly, instead of e.g. blocking paid subscriptions when people travel. The Finnish paid for by taxes internet TV is also a sad joke. E.g. they won’t let me use a VPN at all if I want to watch their stuff, so they can just keep it. There are other ways.

@chriso is there a way to specify node location other than .safe/node/local-node ? Can’t find anything as such in safe node join --help

OK don’t sweat. You have put in a hard shift. Maybe we should just wait until the merge and try again on the 24th.

Thank you for all your efforts.

If you have time, please DM me the command you used to set up the genesis node.
I will then attempt to run this on a single node on an AWS t2 micro and try to connect from home to double check the --public-addr ip:port issues I tried to commnicate to @chriso earlier.

Everything is down right now and it is of course the moment my wife starts feeling as if I am not participating in raising the kids.

There’s a --node-dir-path argument that points to the directory where you’ve installed the node. Otherwise it’ll assume it’s at the default location, which is ~/.safe/node.

Is that what you mean?

Go do family stuff - it’s usually a smart move, short or long-term.

No, sorry, I meant a flag to indicate where node chunks would go, which by default is .safe/node/local-node

Ah ok, thanks.

At the moment, the --root-dir argument (poorly named in my opinion) of the binary is not exposed on the node join command. We can add that (though I would prefer to call it something like --data-dir-path). We aren’t exposing --log-dir either on node join. Perhaps on the node join command, we can have:

  • --data-dir-path for the path of the data directory
  • --bin-dir-path for the path of the directory where the binary is (at the moment this is called --node-dir-path, but I think the word “node” is redundant in this context, since if we’re on a node join command, we know the argument relates to the node)
  • --log-dir-path for the path of the logs directory

That’s probably what I’d prefer. Not sure it will get done on this side of the year though. Maybe this week if I get time, but I’m gonna take a holiday after this week.
