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!

Lately when ever I get scared to do something I think of @DarthCoin spiral of trying and failing and stoping yourself from trying new things.
With that said I think I’m going to start my own fedmint using LNbits
reply
it's even more fun once you create and then delete the mint, a full bankster experience 😂

who is the coolest person on SN, be honest
reply
any skateboarders ??
reply
I used to skateboard but I never managed to do an ollie despite trying for two summers iirc. The best I could do were backside kickturns on a ramp like in this video:
At least that meant I could ride continuously on a ramp. That was already pretty fun :)
Are you a skateboarder?

<10,000 blocks.

Somehow I've avoided directly interacting with Perl all these years. Finally getting some with pg_sample.

Ordered from Dell because they are local, thinking I was doing Texas a favor. It's been on transit to me for 10 days from 40 miles away, a week over the expected date, and the dell rep says contact shipper, shipper says contact dell.

Call local shipping company hear a guy say "ah crap" then get hung up on. Got someone in Dallas on the phone. They said it's sitting on a truck in California (I guess distribution isn't local as reported in the carrier logs ...) and hasn't even been moved by the carrier yet. They can't give an estimate as to when it will move either.
Is this how you all are fighting the robots?

i hope you paid by credit card :)

Another day, another half billion of net inflows into the BTC ETFs... 🥱
I'm a little disappointed HODL and BRRR aren't performing as well as the others... why give money to Blackrock? 😢

why did you change to ek?
which is the same for me, I usually just typed into ekk then let the auto did the work for me:)
reply
Easier and I introduced myself as ek and not ekzyis (since I can't pronounce my own nym) to most anyway
reply
I don't know how many people use sMiles. It's mostly a step counter app that pays out tiny amounts of sats for steps, but also has a couple different small fountains and chess matches for sats.
A few days ago, I noticed that they added a new earning option. Similar to Zebedee, you can earn sats for playing certain mobile games. There seem to be fewer ads than on Zebedee and the rewards seem to be higher.
If you want to check out sMiles, here's my referral code: Undisciplined582
reply
used it before and uninstalled it - I don't think earning those small sats is worth having a tracking app on my phone. 😂
Seriously why not just share more interesting things in SN!
reply
I certainly wouldn't try to convince anyone otherwise.

SNL going live in the Friday night prime time slot at 7:45pm CST
Watch everywhere.
Will be covering the Top 5 stories of the week on Stacker News the front page of Bitcoin.
reply
I couldn't watch it live on zap.stream (as usual) so I watch it now, Saturday. And yes Car, you are right I always watch it with a beer in my hand :)
In regards your comments about me and ecash: k00b is right (seems to know me better), I am in the middle, not pro, not contra. Always looking for the balance into The Force. Seems that you missed my last guide I wrote about using ecash.
IDK why I was listed in top stackers for the week. I didn't post too much. Must be from FWs. I try to limit my posting on SN, only when I am called or something really pissed me off.
I was hoping you to mention on SNL the important news: Zeus turns 5 years ! but you miss it.
reply
Ya it was on my list, but with connection lost got side tracked.
reply
Howdy!
20 days of 100 push ups a day until $100k down. Undetermined to go. 16 days of 100 squats a day until $100k down. Undetermined to go.
Subscriptions are working @ekzyis. Thanks for clarifying.
reply
Nice.
reply
I added calf raises into the mix today.
I'm also switching to four pyramids of 1-2-3-4-5-4-3-2-1.
18 days of 100 pushups (one day of falling asleep after 80) 6 days of 100 squats (one day of falling asleep after 80)
reply
I did a couple days of 100 calf raises in sets of 50 as well but I didn't keep up with it so didn't add it to the accountability list.
reply
I had a previous routine that basically flowed from push up->squat->calf raise, so it was really natural for me to do it.

No worries. :)
We should still make sure it's not or at least less confusing what subscribe in a post means if even @Undisciplined did that mistake.

Now you go and change your username? Couldn't have done this back before the username auto populate feature when I had to type your username every week for the Survivor pool? Haha.

I planted some beans and I am amazed at how quickly they have grown. This photo is from today, we are on day 6 since I planted them:
and this photo is from yesterday, day 5:
My daughter, after seeing how quickly she has grown, told me "I want to have a store to sell beans."

Thinking of starting a "building in the open" weekly whilst I'm looking for work.
The product vision I was working on last year has evolved and I think an OSS approach favours it much more. Plus it will make it much easier to get valuable feedback.

Happy Valentine Weekend.

I love the cynicism in this one.
Also fun fact: in Japan, it’s the ladies who give the gentlemen chocolates on Valentine’s Day itself
reply
is such thing really exist? then you can also have Happy Valentine Month? 😂😂
reply
It really should be, like Christmas is a whole month or two. So why not make the day of “Love” to the whole month of gifts and candy!
reply
how about the whole year - every day:)

It sounds like the story of the movie 'Slumdog Millionaire'. 🤠 I go to Matosinhos (a city in Portugal) several times and there is a roundabout there that has a giant sculpture of an Anemone.
