Howdy there, partner! Welcome on into the Stacker Saloon.
Saddle on up to a stool and spill the beans about your day, fire away with them questions, or let loose and give us the lowdown on your wild and woolly life. We're all ears, so don't hold back!
We're open round the clock, so mosey on in whenever you please!
I'm scared of losing my cowboy hat tomorrow.

I saw the font type, color and part image and concluded Nirvana-esque and, looks like it's this one with ₿s as eyes:
Plus, although it looks like a trick of the light, and my surreal sense of humor; but JayZ looks like a space pirate with a patch.

At last, i rebuild my BTC full node on raspberry 4.
I wanted to install the latest raspbian version, Bookworm. But i faced an issue after reboot:
error message was : Begin: Running /scripts/local-block ... done. Begin: Running /scripts/local-block ... done. Begin: Running /scripts/local-block ... done. done. Gave up waiting for root file system device. Common problems:
  • Boot args (cat proc/cmdline)
    • Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
  • Missing modules (cat proc/modules: ls /dev) ALERT! LABEL=/dev/xxxx does not exist. Dropping to a shell! BusyBox v1.30.1 (Debian 1:1.30.1-4) built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands. (initramfs)
After digging on the web, the quickest solution was to build on the previous raspbian version, Bulleyes
Now it works like a charm :)

What if I told you that a rare sat is worth a lot?

This isn't for me, even if others believe in it. Are we talking about ordinals, right?
reply
This isn't for me, even if others believe in it.
Why wouldn't you trade a sat that looks the same to you for more sats that look the same to you? :)
Are we talking about ordinals, right?
Yes

which nostr client do you recommend and why?
reply
fast and not bad UI, I think it's the best Nostr client I've tried so far, but you need to use other as a backup too ( I use Snort for this ) , because Primal could be down or not loading sometimes.
Howdy!

Go Niners!
reply
I missed the mark, not zapping 49 sats to any pro niners comment so I went big and topped you up to 490.
reply
I can't believe it never even crossed my mind that you should be doing 49 sat zaps.
reply
Me either but especially on game days. I have set my default to 49. If they win how long should I keep it at 49?
reply
Suggestion: Keep it at 49 until they're no longer the defending champs.
reply
If they win maybe I will keep it until draft day. That is usually the unofficial start of the next season and then I can add it back on game days. Seems like a lot of work. But I have already accidentally given out multiples of 49 sats when I meant to zap once because I was so used to it being 10.

If you want to shit on the community then stick around and do it as part of the community.
If you want to leave then maybe just leave don’t come and drop occasional holier than thou pot shots to farm dopamine from your fans.
Or maybe build your own SN.

I am a bear now... is winter and just hibernate. Waiting for spring to come. I read SN but I don't want anymore to jump in to comment. Maybe only when I am really pissed off by some comment or somebody is calling me on an urgent matter. With some few exceptions, is just dust and shitcoineries... sad.

That’s fair - it’s not healthy to get too wound up about it though. You gave the warnings and did your duty. Now is the time for you to continue your journey…

The clanging of cymbals and pounding of drums reverberated throughout the still air of a nation celebrating Chinese New Year.
“Lion Dance!!!” my kindergartener exclaimed.
“Do you want to check it out?” I suggested.
His excitement was palpable. We held hands and dashed out of the house, never mind that he wore his scandals wrongly. There was no time to waste.
We strode towards the direction of the sound. It seemed to have come from the opposite block of flats.
I made a professional judgement.
The lion dance troupe should be on the 6th floor.
Except that I was wrong.
3rd floor!
Wrong again.
4th floor?
Mocked by the empty corridor.
Eventually, I got fed up and dragged my boy to the topmost floor.
The view was magnificent, but our target was conspicuously absent.
Down one floor.
Success! Well, not quite, because the lion dance performance had ended. But the gentleman who was acting as the lion was still around.
“Would you like to touch it?” he offered my kindergartener.
My son hid behind me at first, petrified of the giant-looking lion. He did pluck up his courage to touch its yellow mane.
We later took the lift with the lion. My boy must be overjoyed.
Because when he came home, that was all he could talk about. He asked me how to draw a lion dance and proceeded to draw lions spanning the whole spectrum of the rainbow. Never mind that his lions looked more like aliens.
He even attempted to write 舞狮. Actually I hadn’t meant to teach him that, but he wrote it erroneously as 五十, so I felt that it was my duty to teach him.
I’m glad that my bicultural kid Is enamoured of lion dance performances. This ensures that his self-identity wouldn’t be swarmed with all things Japanese.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! I got the worst notification you can get. After 136 days, your hat was stolen by a mischievous prairie dog. You won't catch the dog, but you can always find another hat.
I'll never achieve anything in life. I'm not even able to take care of a hat against prairie dogs. This is it. I'm done. I was doing the experiment of hiding the hat and I think that was not a good idea. Weekends are dangerous folks. Be careful out there. Take care.

There are many perils in these parts. Stay vigilant.

Out of sync with what?
We are fetching it from our own node.
reply
the fee - 13 sat/vB from mempool, showing 27 here 👀
reply
0 sats \ 4 replies \ @ek 11 Feb
You mean mempool.space?
I think they are running a node with a mempool larger than default (1GB vs 300MB). That's probably where the difference comes from.
Mempools are unique per node but I think you know that. We're just fetching it from our own node since that made more sense from a technical perspective. Maybe we should use the fee rate from mempool.space?
reply
Na... complex and depend of a 3rd party... keep with your node.
reply
I was thinking about using the mempool.space API first1 and use our own node as a fallback. This isn't the first question and won't be the last question where someone is confused about the fee rate we show. I don't necessarily like that everyone seems to use mempool.space to look up fee rates (myself included) but it is what it is.
Maybe we should "fall in line" and meet user expectations there.

Footnotes

  1. it was actually first considered to use it during implementation, but they weren't transparent with their rate limits. The answer in some Github ticket was only: "if you wonder about the rate limits, you're probably above them."
Maybe we should use the fee rate from mempool.space?
why not? the fee there is to help determining the action time right? 👀
