It’s the SuperBowl and a man makes his way to his seats with a perfect view. He sits down, noticing that the seat next to him is empty. He leans over and asks his neighbor if someone will be sitting there. ‘No,’ says the neighbor. ‘The seat is empty.’ ‘This is incredible,’ said the man. ‘Who in their right mind would have a seat like this for the SuperBowl and not use it?’ The neighbor says, ‘Well actually the seat belongs to me. I was supposed to come with my wife, but she passed away. This is the first SuperBowl we haven’t been to together since we got married.’ ‘Oh, I’m so sorry to hear that. That’s terrible….But couldn’t you find someone else, a friend, relative or even a neighbor to take her seat?’ The man shakes his head. ‘No,’ he says. ‘They’re all at the funeral.’

Guys, I will tell you a secret: @siggy47 didn't want to share with us, about his journey on the ship. He show us pictures from other cruises, but in fact was him piloting the ship. Here is the proof
This was Siggy's "boating accident" that was talking about !

It's beginning to get cumbersome.
I need to write an MVP script for doing it. Given a list of pr numbers:
  1. use github graphql api to get:
    • pr author
    • issue number
    • issue author
    • difficulty level
  2. using existing awards.csv, fill in payment method or ???
  3. where applicable, add rows to awards.csv
That'd be the mvp and I'd manually edit the result, adding other types of contribution awards/penalties, and make the payments. After that's pretty reliable, I'll have it do other types of awards/penalties, then prompt to make payments and use SN's API to make the payments.

Anyway to ask someone if they could lower the cost to post in some of the territories lol? I'd love to post in the AI territory since that is what my House of Reps Committee is working on and I am working on the House AI Working Group (also called the House AI Task Force) but that cost is gunna slaughter me lol
reply
my House of Reps Committee
nobody will zap you for that type of garbage
reply
Garbage???
So you believe that the public should be kept in the dark and not know what is going on? I write and post about what is going on with regulators and Congress so that people actually have a clue what is going on. If I was doing it to get the zaps I wouldn't choose to write about a controversial topic like Congress but since I work here I figure its good to help inform the public.
reply
Don't be discouraged, thanks for stopping by
reply
TBH I am just more confused lol... I mean I figure transparency is something Congress really needs to get the trust of the public again but instead, they seem to think I shouldn't? Its just confusing lol
reply
what is going on with regulators and Congress
Yes, that is pure garbage. Meaningless.
reply
another solution: make your post valuable enough to stack more than 900 sats. 👀
reply
especially if he stop writing about "AI bullshit crap" and politicians... Nobody gives a shit about those.
reply
I would assume that people would be interested in actually seeing what is going on and what Congress is looking to do or is doing in the space. I think it only makes sense that people know what is going on I mean transparency is good right?
reply
Congress is a scam, all politicians are liars, why would people spend time with that garbage. Politicians are not doing anything in your service, only in THEIR service. Stop being a shitizen slave. Make them obsolete just by rebutting their any authority over you. You are the master not them.
reply
I truly dont know where to begin to explain to you how this all works. Almost all legislation doesn't come from a Member of Congress but rather from the Committee who wrote the legislation. Those Committees are staffed mostly with 20-30 year olds. How Members vote what gets prioritized that's all their staff.
reply
LOL statist gonna do statist thing, always. I don't give a shit about all that political crap !
We are not gonna make it...
reply
I've written a couple that have gone over that but I've gotten more sats here talking about what has gone on or is going on at work here... I am by no means a perfect writer but I do think some of this stuff would be nice for the masses to know without costing me an arm and a leg. I will say my sats amount has jumped due to my comment last night that got 10k in tips but that's been a one off event lol

Melange mostly has value because the empire outlawed computers, so there's definitely a fiat element to it.

Damn..That was epic! Well done.
However, block 170, signifying the first transaction was a less than dramatic finale. IMHO a more powerful ending would be the insertion of block 6,930,000 which will be when not the last Bitcoin is rewarded, but the very last Satoshi. The block reward will be one satoshi. Now THAT is dramatic. This is expected to occur in 2140 AD.
And when the last block is inserted, there will NEVER be another Satoshi coming into existence. That will be the very last coinbase transaction. Yes, transactions will still be validated and the blockchain will continue to grow, but every last sat will, from that moment, be in play. That last block can be inserted forever sealing the minting of the hardest money ever created.
This last block, sealing the mint, would be a more fitting end to this sci-fi short. Am I right?

Excellent phrases.

we are all satoshi
This last one lacks the same gravitas as the two former phrases. They could have done a bit worse like:

Are satoshis the equivalent to water; just as water is scarce on Arrakis, satoshis are limited and must be carefully harvested and protected?
Yes! Nice analogy. Bitcoin is like water, light, land, and air.

Found 15K sats under the metaphorical couch cushion last night.
Was cleaning out email, and found some old emails confirming some free shitcoins I'd gotten from a Reddit faucet on the Stellar network ages ago.
I hadn't looked at Lobstr (the Stellar wallet I'd had) in years, but decided to see if there was anything that could be done with them. Turns out, there was an internal swap to Lightning, and it actually supported sending those sats out via a Lightning invoice. And the coins were worth about 15K sats.
So ten minutes later, I'd converted those coins and the sats were in my wallet.
(Sadly, the Stellar NFT I won in some contest that was supposedly worth $10 in fiat was not swappable, so my luck with the old crap ended there.)
reply
This is the way, in case you had some shitcoins... dump... immediately an get some hard money :).

The collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge just seems to me to be a symbol of US crumbling infrastructure as well as a horrible tragedy. For many years I drove the I-95 corridor. That route is the only alternative to I-95 around Baltimore. It's also the beltway serving the suburbs. This is going to have a bigger effect on the northeast US than people might imagine.
reply
I read the container ship 🛳️ destination was Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
reply
Were there any cars on the bridge when it collapsed?
reply
That's crazy. The story is just that it was accidentally struck by a boat?
reply
I was watching the news. Apparently the barge seemed to lose power before it struck the bridge. The crew may have lost the ability to steer.
reply
Yeah my heart hurts for those involved today.
reply
Tragedy. My feelings are stronger because I have driven over that bridge so many times. It's human nature to empathize more when you imagine yourself experiencing it.

I zapped every one who either left a direct comment or a photo 80 sats. Not a lot, but it is a token of my appreciation.
I had a lot of fun and was happy to learn how to organise a bounty:
