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!
The minds of so many are so tightly shackled
And the hopes of the masses are so severely crushed
That they are content to build better cages
Rather than seize their freedom using the wisdom of sages
Don't inspire hate or envy among your fellow earthlings freaks. Staying humble is the equivalent to air gapped cold storage.
I dig it
Anyone else buying rn?
with waaaat ?? i do not own the apartment chairs! :P
Indeed... waiting next month :(, no fire power here.
Nice try fed!

Dearest stock market why must you tank and bring down BTC with you... I feel this is one of the downsides to the BTC ETFs when the market is bad and people are starting to panic and we need the price to rebound above $69k to fry the short sellers for $1.5 bil
Just checked, and it looks like 1 BTC is still worth 1 BTC, so I think all's good.
(Seriously, though, I've seen expressions like "when NASDAQ gets a cold, Bitcoin gets the flu" and I'd imagine ETFs would exacerbate that.)
Yeah ur right! I just wanted to see $1.5 bil in BTC shorts expire 😂 I’m choosing chaos today
I'm always fine with choosing chaos, and watching folks with shorts lose their pants (so to speak) is definitely fun to hope for.
Why do you feel this? Bitcoin went down many times before ETFs, hand in hand with the whole stock market.
It is the additional exposure. Previously it was really just Grayscale but not we have what roughly 10 ETFs so there are more people who are getting into it this way which is good in that people are accepting it as a part of the future but when the market tanks an ETF holding BTC only would be the first on the chopping block. Esp if people are for instance facing the good old Friday margin calls and are having to firesell the newest and most unfamiliar things will be sold off first so BTC gets some additional downward pressure if that makes sense.

76 days of 100 push ups a day until $100k down. Undetermined to go. 72 days of 100 squats a day until $100k down. Undetermined to go.
Milwaukee Admirals hockey game with my boys! First time!
My daughter asks me random questions every day about any topic. Today's question was: If a bear and a bull fight, who wins? ...what would they answer?
Discovery or History channel have the answer... that's sure... hahaha.
Bear
What do you think are the advantages of the bear?
Big AF and fast!
In the wild I would say the bear would win but in bitcoin eventually the bull always wins.
I think that in nature the bull would win, with one attack it could kill the bear, or at least leave it very badly injured, the bear would have to attack vital areas of the bull while it is attacked. It would be a very rough fight 🤔. If we talk about bitcoin, I agree with you.
It might depend on the type of bear and what "winning" means, but probably the bull.
My daughter tells me that she is talking about a polar bear, a polar bear would have no chance with a bull, unless they are in the bear's habitat, then the disadvantage would be the bull. My curiosity thinks of a grizzly bear against a bull, it would be a very close fight, maybe I lean towards the bull.
I have an asymmetric view of what winning entails for both animals. For the bear, winning means killing and eating the bull. For the bull, winning means not getting eaten.
On balance, I think the bull is likely to survive this encounter, with both animals being injured.

Considering a territory name change from UFOs to Aliens_And_UFOs
Can you guess why lol
By doing this, it will be the first option displayed in the territory combobox.
OR
UFOs might not be aliens.
From the bottom to the top and more inclusive!
And it will match @siggy47's territory names too, the question is:
Underscores or no underscores...? 😂
https://m.stacker.news/26328 https://m.stacker.news/26329
I visually prefer it without an underscore, but it's easier to read with underscore.
Anyone else cheering for BTC to hold $70k to watch $1.5 bil in shorts liquidate?! Feel the pain short seller!

I’m starting to think that the credit score is a scam. I used to be so obsessed with it but now I’m like why?
What can cause your credit score to fluctuate?

Did you know that dance is taught during Physical Education lessons for all middle school students?
Perhaps the Sports & Wellness department could share with the Dance teachers-in-charge the dance curriculum they curate for all Year 1 students so that the Dance Club has a clearer idea of the dance techniques they are honing during their time at school.
Yes, I’m in charge of the Dance Club in school.
What sports and games are taught during PE lessons in your country?
Kickball, soccer, volleyball, basketball

Horse stance: 4 minutes
https://m.stacker.news/26348
been a while since i did a horse stance. there is a scene of Jackie Chan in Drunken Boxing where he is cracking walnuts, with a nut in each hand, while in a horse stance. it is forever engrained in my mind. i do crack walnuts like that, but need to also practice the stance.
Drunken master is the movie name.
Nice.. Do you have a personal best time? How long have you practiced before?
yes that movie! (i watch the old and the new). i have had stood perhaps a minute in teenage years 😅yes that movie! (i watch the old and the new). i have had stood perhaps a minute in teenage years 😅

@orthwyrm kwno about it... even do some push up ;) to spend time.
Stackers there's still time to join the SN ~Stacker_Sports Faantasy Football League.
lets have some fun this upcoming season. see this post for details #473247
I'm willing, but I never played it before. Will there be hand holding?
before i forget, two resources you may find helpful.
Thanks
it'll be great to have you join the league, that would make 7, ideally we'd want to find one more for a decent sized 8 man league, keeps things easy to learn and easy to play. i want to keep it all stackers only, but if push comes to shove, i can reach out to other people i'm in multiple leagues with and have them fill a spot, maybe they end up coming to SN via the league.
I need to look into it more before I commit. I don't want to bail half way through. When do you need to know by?
i was going to close the league for entries once we were ready to draft. i intend on drafting shortly after the main NFL draft. maybe the following week, we'd know the landing spots of players and things like that by then so i think approximately a week after the real NFL draft is when i'd look to close entry. so anytime really before then. but i'd recommend giving yourself some time to get familiar with drafting by doing at least one mock in an auction format. just so you know what you're going to expect at the actual start up draft.
Good advice.
Yeah. We got people who have played before but not in years and we got people who just want a casual no stress league.
Since I'm commissioning it, I intend to provide help and guidance for people.
Eg. If I think a trade is hugely one-sided and unfair I'll probably contest it and ensure I've spoken with the people involved in the trade. We want a fun league not one where people are taking advantage of inexperienced players. That's no fun.
Good. First question: I don't use google. Is there an alternate source to grab that sleeper app that you are aware of? If not, I'll hunt around.
Alternatively, you can log in on your browser then do a browser shortcut to mobile? That's how I'd do it.
Good idea
That's how I use SN as I found it slightly better than the actual app.
SN has an official app? I use the PWA, which is what I think you probably use too?
I think it's available on the aurora store? If not you can get it straight off their website sleeper.app
I think it's on APK combo. Okay. Thanks
We're doing an auction draft as a start up because it's going to be a dynasty league. Which is wicked fun, just keep in mind your roster construction and how many of each position you want to start. I'd recommend using their mock draft tool to get familiar with drafting for fantasy. It can be very entertaining.
However if it doesn't take off as a dynasty we're flexible enough to move to redraft easily. But I'd hoped to keep it dynasty and produce weekly updates for ~stacker_sports hopefully bystanders will be able to effectively begin to support a team and watch how their stacker is getting on. There's lots of scope for content for stacker sports from this.

It's like a hurricane out there. Pouring rain, howling wind, downed trees, debris everywhere. I love a good storm.
This time the meteriology is out of sync. It's so hot here. It's going to reach 29 degrees.
Good day to stay home posting on SN!
Yes it is.

don't make any decisions or generally say less when angry.
I'm always suspicious of these musician quotes. I like it, but did Marley say it? It doesn't sound like him.
I did a little research and I really couldn't find anything about bob marley having said this. Only if it was in a song.
I notice this happens online a lot with Jimi Hendrix and John Lennon too. People make up memes attributing quotes to them that they never said.
I'll keep a closer eye on these situations. Thanks for the warning 👍
I guess it's not a huge deal if the quote is good, but I wonder if people sometimes make them up rather than misattribute them.
