how come @ekzyis sleep so little, reading someone's long discussion at 2am 👀

or did you even sleep at all?

guys, have a try at Turkish coffee, so easy to make it at home and nice being self-sufficient:)! and Starbucks is bad.

and Starbucks is bad.

The one I already drank actually tasted quite good, I just didn't know I was supposed to drink it with a straw so I spilled half all over my room lol :)

Didn't see there was a hole in the cap and tried to shake it ...

But that was also fun :)

Who drinks coffee with a straw? Even if it's iced?

People can be weird sometimes :)

Idk, exciting times for SN and having so much fun on SN rn :)

Not sure when the last time was I had so much fun over extended periods of time, maybe never :)

or did you even sleep at all?

I did sleep, I just did wake up feeling like wow, that was a good sleep, let's see what time it is

It's been 2 hours

Well... lol :)

wtf, just lost my draft response to this using snort for the second time for some unknown reason ... probably pressed something which immediately closed the reply. i can't be the first one, right? right?

going to try primal now.

does definitely not feel good if you're finally willing to interact more with nostr

and then stuff like this happens lol

i know, it's not the fault of the protocol. but come on guys, snort is a big popular client, no?

is the snort dev on SN? lol

omg I believe nostr is a meme xD

early days of nostr, so much fun to use!

and clients be like:

let's play a game. you'll press confirm 10 times in a row to do some action with your keypair or just use "remember my choice" and we'll never ask you again because we now have full control ;)

was able to create a post in the nostr territory about this experience now at least :)

oh wait, I misunderstand it , it's more like the founder share 50% of the 10%

Still have to look at median image fees (and other stuff I wanted to look up but I forgot) but every day I forget to do it, we're gathering more data so the query will become more accurate, lol :)

maybe I put everything into a new post later, it's so much change lately, I'm trying to catching up:)

here might be a better explanation

in original subs: 90% goes to the poster/commenter, 10% goes to the pool and will be rewarded back to top stackers.
in other subs: 90% goes to the poster/commenter, 50% of the 10% goes to the founder, 50% of the 10% goes to the pool and will be rewarded back to top stackers.

so it's always good simply being a good stackers; For founders, they should make the territory fun and attract more posters to come 🧐 much hard work and commitment.

I am also using Phoenix for login and it works fine. But I am using legacy mode.

They told me I can send them a mail if someone has a problem with their Phoenix wallet max every two months. That was their response when I asked if it's okay if I write them if a stacker has a problem with their Phoenix wallet and it might also be in their interests to respond on SN - or at least let me forward their response :)

And it will be 2 months in 10 days, so I can't do this again currently, haha

But maybe you can just write them? :) support@phoenix.jitbit.com

They seem to respond pretty quickly :)

You could potentially even just send them a link to this thread potentially haha

But be polite! You're representing SN now lol

Learning about bitcoin and holding btc is empowering especially when price goes up. But theres a downside too. Price can drop and peoplecan fud it and it doesent feel so empowering.

So I have been researching health and diet. And made some changes in my life. And that is actually empowering. Losing weight, looking better, feeling better. There seems to be no real downside.

One recipe,

Read, does it make sense?
Re-read, change
Read it some more

Sometimes you've subconsciously written something that when you read it again refers to something important. The body 'n' mind are truly a great combination.

Oh yes, also throw in a large bunch of thyme.

am I not allowed to say something like that? I can say or predict whatever I want, why should I be forced to play those games?

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @ek 7 Dec 2023

you're not forced, i am just referring to this

To predict what? That the people are dumb? I will never use my sats for gambling.

if you have good reasons for a prediction (like you may have with yours here), putting sats on it does not make it suddenly a gamble.

again, not saying you should put sats on it. just saying you should maybe question your definition of gambling.

I simply do not play games with my sats. And I have this rule from long time ago, from 2014 when I was about to lose some but in the last moment I retracted. And I did well. From that day I promise myself I will never ever put my sats in a game. And here am I, with all my sats intact.

I had to disable those notifications a few days after I started really using SN. I know I'll miss some important notifications, but I couldn't keep up. This way, I make sure I'm notified when someone replies to me directly, and then I can read all the replies when I have time.

No worries, I think the current notification that was indicated above actually solves it for me then. Catches conversations I'm no longer apart of. It might catch others that might pertain to me too but I'll take it.

A trust is defined as "A legal relationship in which one party holds a title to property while another party has the entitlement to the beneficial use of that property." Essentially sort of a glorified contract. Trusts ARE AMAZING and have a lot of interesting things you can learn about, but for the sake of this post we will only cover the two major elements only: trustee and beneficiary.

The trustee is the one who is basically working to keep the trust working and going, whereas the beneficiary simply benefits from the exchange and does not have a direct hand in the operations of the trust.

ALL ACTIONS IN LIFE ARE TECHNICALLY TRUST ACTIONS... EVERY SECOND OF EVERY DAY. BY YOU READING THIS POST, I AM THE TRUSTEE AND YOU ARE THE BENEFICIARY: MY JOB IS TO ENSURE YOU ARE GOING TO BENEFIT GREATLY BY READING IT AND I NEED TO FIX IT IF YOU AREN'T.

So, for example, when you have an encounter with a police officer, because they are the "public servant," then they are the trustee and you are the beneficiary... Their responsibility is to “serve and protect,” but the problem is that it often doesn’t quite go that way.

All court cases, all interactions with other humans, all letters or communication are ALL trust actions. All of life is a series of trust actions. Someone is always the trustee and another is always the beneficiary... and if that LAW OF GOD is violated at any point then that particular interaction will fall apart in flames.

A "reverse trust scam" is when someone like a judge or police officer act as though YOU are the trustee and they are the beneficiary...

"Legal conventions since Roman times mandate that living people must be described or denoted in all small letter names. Under Roman Civil Law they only lose that status when they become debtors, at which point a free man partially loses his status and is named using upper and lower case style conventions. Slaves are named using all capital letters." -Anna Von Reitz in the book Disclosure 101

One of the ways you spell your name to differentiate it from your public corporation is like this: brandon-joe:williams. The name is in all lower case. It's [firstname]-[middlename]:[lastname].

You can spell your human name in any possible way you want - the choice is yours. There is no set way to do it. I’m just giving you an example. It’s YOUR name to write as you please. You could do Williams, Brandon-Joe, willams; brandon joe, etc. Anything you want is fine… it’s your name!

fun fact, I don't like the name my parent gave me 🤣 I used to think why do I need to use a name that is not chosen by me? Isn't this my own life? so I barely use it, pretty detached from that "company" in a sense.

Many people want to create their own territories, but only a few want to actually run it.

Also I don't understand why people don't do a simple post to test the "market" first, it's almost like trying to register a company without testing the demand, haha.

I know I don't have the time for my own territory. It would be nice but its not very smart creating something you won't manage. That's just a bad look and annoying. I just hope those who create their own territories understand that it takes a ton of work managing it.

It may be a mistake to give maintainer/creater of territory portion of sats generated there.

It is a good incentive but there will always be those who abuse the system. At least the community will gravitate towards good territories that are managed well. My territory for now is the Saloon. ;)

Don't speak like that buddy. Just know that you are loved. In your personal life and in the cowboy community. There's more than one way to be free. Just ask @Natalia and @DarthCoin. I admire the way they live because to me that's what freedom looks like. I would recommend striving for a life like theirs.

You are all good caring people. Don't worry about me. Every day I post a snippet of a song lyric I like. Today's was from Jimmy Cliff's The Harder They Come. Thank you very much for your genuine concern. I'm fine.

Working on it.

Although how has no one created clown-world or fiat-life yet? I’m tempted but want to focus on the light side.

Was thinking of walking about my city posting pictures of beautiful architecture next to modern towers and eyesores. Sound vs fiat architecture. I’ll probably stop by @birdeye21’s crib in earth for that this weekend.

better focus on the one you want to see the most - many restaurants fail because they want to serve many dishes 👀 for me, I'm gonna create "nothing" ( no territory for me, at least not now) but actually focus on the creating.

Gonna do a hamam today while waiting for the noise to go away - anyone want to learn how to hamam like a pro? 🤓

It makes your skin like babies after each visit! Because the lady or gent who works in the bathhouse will scrub your whole body with a kese to peel out your dead skin ( the kese is like sand paper ) a bit hurt but acceptable, then with a deep massage, aw so good, pain then heaven!

And then, depending on the location, some hamams even with healing water! I had some skin problems due to food allergenic this summer, but I didn't do anything, only make sure I didn't eat the wrong food again and kept going to the hammam and drinking the water, and all is gone now - not sure how much it helped tho, as it could also due to the change of emotions because everything is connected.

One of the perks of living in Turkey is that I can go to Hamam anytime I want. I even went all my way to different villages to dig for the most natural soap and the most absorbent towel, and I even made my own bathrobe last month:) haha, don't underestimate the force of truth-seeking! and part of me want to do a long post like @davidw for Turkey, but damn, this beautiful land is too much for me to cover, maybe I would share it bit by bit as I explore more:)

0 sats \ 2 replies \ @davidw 7 Dec 2023

Really want to understand more about Turkey. Chunk it up, if it’s easier. Starting with food and drink may be the easiest way to pull us in.

There’ll be stuff you wish you included and you’ll be editing for days if you’re as bonkers as me. Enjoy your scrub!

omg, the food and drink can go on for months to talk about! haha, like even small details serving water with coffee when guests coming, which one would they drink first tells different things:)! 😳

I bet. I love how most is eaten with the hands over there too.

It tells you a lot about a culture when you see manners and trust like that. Giving you more than asked for.

Like going to a restaurant and being served delicious fresh bread and sauces, before you’ve even ordered your drink. Pay it forward has an impact on our psyche.

I would never humiliate my dog by making her wear clothing! I'm half kidding. I understand the smaller breeds my need protection in really cold climates, but I never owned one like that. How are things going? Do you get a break from classes for the holidays? Time to catch up on things?

Enjoy whatever down time you can. Re territories, I was really excited about them. Then I made that post of my daughter's gecko and realized what a mess would be made of the home sub. If you notice, I asked for a mute sub option in meta almost immediately! I'm torn. I have faith in Keyan and I think he's thought it through. Whatever form it ultimately takes should protect the experience of those only interested in talking about bitcoin. On the other hand, we're here to disrupt the status quo. Massive change is usually messy. Having weird territories all fueled and rewarded by bitcoin is exciting. Right now it's chaotic, but I imagine it gets sorted out. I for one got a lot of pleasure from the Stacker News of even a few months ago. It was a cozy space where I could share my thoughts with people I like. But, if bitcoin is going to tear down walls I can't expect my little space to stay the same.
