America without European discovery

'Discovery' was fine; it was always going to happen that the two hemispheres would find each other again

The genocides, colonisation and land-grabs were the great tragedy, and those didn't need to happen

I first read it to mean you lacked determination to do them.

No just enough determination and stubbornness to get them done

Crazy numbers.

I kind of think the recent rally has yet to penetrate normie consciousness, too. For example, Google search trends are rather low relative to price:

I wonder how ‘burnt’ retail are feeling after last time… I guess google may be an indication. Certainly not many mentions in the conventional media to get people’s interest yet.

that's funny....maybe "skip life" too 😂

curious to hear what Bitcoiners thinks about Valentine's Day? I think the modern-day Valentine's Day is more like marketing for sales, I remember I once asked the guy to throw the flower away ( when I was super young ) because a. it's stupid holding it, b. extra stupid paying so much on that day... 😂😂😂

412 sats \ 13 replies \ @0xbitcoiner 14 Feb

😂 edit: 😂😂😂

21 sats \ 12 replies \ @Natalia 14 Feb

for real, why do men think gifting flowers in public is romantic? It's catching so much unwanted attention...I would much rather receive sats with cool msg over LN. 😂

To be honest, you are not the typical woman. I'm not saying that's good or bad, I don't judge that.

269 sats \ 3 replies \ @BitByBit21 14 Feb

What about some sats with a flower emoji? 💐

1489 sats \ 2 replies \ @Natalia 14 Feb

can be more creative than that! like sending sats over LN, with a message with detailed steps guiding how to find a handwritten love letter:)

should I offer my romantic idea as a service 🤓

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @BitByBit21 14 Feb

That would be a really a romantic proof of work 😄

oh def, a real handwritten love letter is way better than flowers ( can't use chatGPT! ) 😎

Fine! Then make a @saloon VIP section. Cowboy hats only. This concept infuses value into the mythical hat.

learned a new trick in Zeus last night - speed up transactions.

I was closing some channels yesterday, and something interesting I noticed: even though you set the fee instead of auto, it will still use another fee other than the one you set. 🤔 quite strange, like when I set it to 13 sats, but the TX was showing 9 sats, how on earth will this fee get confirmed anytime soon? And no option in Thunderhub to pump it...

But then you can speed it up in Zeus, just copy the TX and click speedup, done! 🥁

it seems some recent comments are not showing up in the profile? Like mine is all gone after Feb11. 👀

Cold and windy morning. Prime hip breaking weather for the old. Kind of empty in here. We need @carlosfandango, @Natalia to show up, and @DarthCoin to return.

597 sats \ 1 reply \ @Natalia 14 Feb

I just managed to find 160k missing sats back in an old Blixt node with the help of @DarthCoin 🤓 ⚒️ ( due to my recklessness and inexperience in the early time they went "missing" )

And wow so much fun with all the detective work, from all the way figuring out the Aezeed and Tarpoot addresses, and the most tricky part is because not many wallets supported them - you think you might lose the sats, but they are still THERE just most wallets can't read it.

should be a pretty fun article coming up soon!

Hey @siggy47 - I’m lurking. Mind yourself out there. I took a tumble yesterday; first thing check myself to see what’s broken, all good…next thing check who saw me do it….

Oh man. Glad you're ok. I took a nasty fall last week on a cement landing. Skinned my knee and I think I broke a few toes. Luckily nothing too bad. Sore for a day.

I deserved it. I was wearing really cheap old crocs! I was carrying a heavy box of debris and one of the crocs slipped off. Everything went flying. If anyone had seen it they would have enjoyed the show.

Damn. Lesson learnt I hope….. let your butler do that sort of thing lol.

Fake crocs are a thing? I’m learning everyday it seems…

Definitely a great list. I may have some Rust work coming up in a few weeks time. Not full-time but enough to keep someone busy for a few hours a day. I'll be sure to zap you a SN payment with more details in March, once I've had enough time to finalise/organise my thoughts.

In the name of decluttering, I finally read to extract the key insights my EQ report I had received a decade ago. Funny how age helps me to immediately zero in on the pertinent points. I learnt that in order to increase my EQ, I need to:

recognise my successes
use my strengths to identify growth opportunities
be more optimistic

Well here’s one success I recognise: more than 50 days of wearing my cowboy hat 🤠

Saloon doesn't show up in the home recent filter ? @sn

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @ek 14 Feb

Mhh, that is probably not intended behaviour. It should show up there but it probably doesn’t since it’s such a special item (has no territory).

171 sats \ 4 replies \ @Public_N_M_E 14 Feb

I think it's got something to do with the Pin mechanics. Nothing I've pinned shows up in recent only in Hot.

(A recent post still shows, but without the pin icon next to it)

21 sats \ 3 replies \ @siggy47 14 Feb

There was some pin code change yesterday, right?

We fixed items pinned in territories not showing up in home (without the pin icon).

Mayhaps, I don't see the saloon in my territory feed like I used to. It's only in the home feed.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @ek 14 Feb

That’s expected behaviour.

We plan that every territory can have their own saloon if the founder wants so.

And the current way of showing the global saloon in every territory was confusing to some founders.
