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 get a large amount of enjoyment out of setting my default zap at some uncommon amount, kinda like a calling card.
I love it.
I've been making heavy use of the custom zaps lately. I had forgotten that it stores a few of your recent zap values. My numbers aren't that distinctive, though.
Default: 21 Double-click: 42 Stored value 1: 69 Stored value 2: 420
It would be nice to have some classier numbers, but these are what the culture has settled on.
I mostly just complete the zaps of other people to a number I like. It’s also an exercise in mental arithmetic.
Economists must be horrified by this behaviour.
sneaky ek, same like nemo
It’s basically a form of graffiti
Not good ones
Sample size 1?
Well that's what I have an existence proof for, but good economists don't try to argue with people's goofy preferences, they just take them at face value and move on.
Sometimes a pen is more than a pen.

You know, you think so hard about telling someone something...and then you delete it because you dont want to make them feel bad...such is life.
Maybe you can make it sound helpful? Are you sure they will not appreciate your good intentions, assuming you have good intentions?
Some things are just better left unsaid.
The immediate benefit of not making a bad decision is not making a bad decision
Isn’t that also the long run benefit?
Yes but it doesn’t sound as pretentious
True
Guy Swann’s latest read 821 was fucking amazing. Highly recommend

Hello beautiful people! I'm taking a while to write my next review because life happens. I'm going through divorce, I'm moving to a small city and on top of all of that, my surgery date is almost here... But I didn't give up! Promise!
Anyone got a working stream link for the Usyk/Fury fight? Stuck at work and all of my usual streaming sites seem to not be working :'(
I'm just starting on the newsletter, crap.
What’s the typical time commitment look like?
An hour if I’m not distracted and I’ve read the stories already. I’m just a slow writer is all
Just an hour and for me it's like the food for whole week. I'm a slow reader. Damn!
You’re very creative though, and that can take time. It would take me ages
It used to take me four hours before the script. Sometimes longer if I added a note at the beginning which I did at first. We get efficient at things we do more of fortunately

Hows it going freaks,
TheWildHustle should seriously look into juicing up his S9 with one of those loki boards.
The perfect pleb mining setup would be an S9 running 3 s19 boards from 3 120 volt outlets and a couple of bitaxe lotto miners. A rough estimate puts Hustle at making around 150 a month with a small lotto chance.
Thanks, Hustle
What’s the cost on that set-up, Hustle?
Looks like its 500 for the S19J Pro on Kaboomracks 100 for the S9 (if you don't have one already) Loki Kit for 35 bucks https://d-central.tech/product/loki-diy-kit/ Bit Axe will run you 200-250
Hustle doesn't have energy cost (pays a condo association fee instead of gas and electric). And will probably end up spending 1k on a setup that will pay him back in 10-12 months (excluding a bull market rip that takes us to 200k or above).
How will the condo like the noise?
Running the miner at half wattage works for us. Could upgrade the fans and throw on an enclosure but the it hasn't been a problem so far.
Recency bias rules simple minds. It’s hard to deal with a lot of fans these days due to it. Whether we talk about sports, politics, or Bitcoin.
It’s better to take a moment and think about the full picture. Lately I have seen more and more of the black/white view on the world and the grey seems to be forgotten.
Read between the lines.
Think for yourself, question authority.
Some people are so disagreeable that when you agree they'll put words in your mouth that they disagree with.
I do not. Screw you k00b!

One of the things I like about forums is they have a goldilocks pace. Twitter-like social media can't help but make bad things as fast as the good things. Quicker engagement, quicker to distraction, and quicker to enemies.

Plant sale was a success, in the sense that we spent over $60 and got a ton of plants. And good exercise walking there and back. Now to get more by planting them.
Girls on the run 5k with my niece
Howdy!
112 days of 100 push ups a day until $100k down. Undetermined to go. 108 days of 100 squats a day until $100k down. Undetermined to go.
Good luck
I've been trying dead hang recently. Saw a YouTube video talking about its benefits, so I decided to give it a try. I've been doing it for 1 week now. Tried aiming to hang for 2 minutes but could only get to max 1m42s for now. Will report back maybe a month later in terms of strength or health improvements etc.
I'm curious to hear that follow up.
I'll try my best to remember to report back in a month. Maybe remind me if I forget and if you still remember.
It feels great but I can't do it for too long, it is one of the few things besides actual pitching that irritates an old rotator cuff injury I had.
I have lower back pain issues, so I'm hoping this will help with the back pain.
Muscular or disc issues? I had a pretty bad herniated disc almost two years ago. Had to walk with a cane for a couple weeks and didn't totally heal for a few months. I am very cautious now when I start to feel any pressing of the disc on my sciatic nerve. I will rest it, ice it, then heat it up and use the stretching pillow and do other stretches to try and nip it in the bud right away.
I don't know, I never got to the bottom of it. I'm guessing it's muscular but don't know for sure. It goes away when I do stretches regularly, but I've just been a lazy ass lately and haven't been doing enough stretches. It's playoff time with too many games to watch and follow, plus work had been pretty busy, you know the usual excuses for not taking care of the body.
Howdy, here I go again! Day 9, 10000 steps daily challenge.
https://m.stacker.news/31469
Day 9 done!
https://m.stacker.news/31517
Good luck
Awesome. I had a 10k a day steps streak of over a year but lost it about 2 months ago. Still usually get 10k or close to a day but I haven't started up the streak again.
Congrats! I hope to get there and keep going. It’s difficult to find everyday a bit of time. That’s why I started the challenge so that I can find motivation to keep going.
Culture / the way of being is like a force - you tend to be XYZ because you are born in certain places, and there are certain truths in those stereotypes.
However, visitors or travelers love to see exotic culture because it's different, and they are outside and most likely unaffected, but it could be an invisible cage for the locals - some might question it, and only a few manage to break free and be who they really are.
Day 113 of the #100aDayTil100k challenge, sets breakdown: 5x25 normal/narrow, 30 diamond, 26 spiderman, 42 pike, 25 wide, 16 pseudo, 16 side-to-side, 31 elevated; Total: 311 (Day 217 of 100+ pushups per day in total; day 116 of 120+ pushups per day) (The fact that the total is the number of days participated in the challenge, backwards, is a complete coincidence btw lol)
Good Day to All. Have a good weekend and remember:
Bitcoin ETFs have purchased 21,700 BTC ($1.5B) in the month to date. This is 3X the supply of new bitcoin from miners!

"The skillful soldier does not raise a second levy, neither are his supply-wagons loaded more than twice."
I think about this when frying bacon. How many times do you flip your bacon?
Finished x-men 97. Gotta say it was fantastic! Disney has something here hopefully profit motives don’t screw it up
Was not a huge fan of the original, but really enjoyed this one after the first couple of episodes.
I am too old for the tv show but when I heard those opening bars of music in Dr Strange…. Woah.
I'm glad to hear that. We cancelled our Disney+ subscription awhile ago, but I'll keep in mind that they have something worth watching.
Yeah I only have it due to my AMEX perk. But I grew up watching the old cartoon and i always wondered what happened to professor X. Obviously I could of read the comic but seeing it play out in an animated show is so awesome x-men and Spider-Man cartoon shows are the main reason I’m Marvel fan
Me too. I was really excited when I heard X-Men '97 announced.

Another weekend, another plant sale. Drinking coffee to get prepped for it.
I had a fantastic time at my first bitcoin meetup aside from PubKey events last night. I think I'll do a write up about it in a few days, but I must mention this. I'm a little hard of hearing, so after one guy introduced himself to the group I wasn't sure if I missed his name. I asked him what his name was again, and, without skipping a beat, he smirked and said "nice try, fed." I knew I would feel at home.
you should call him "nice try, fed" from now on
Good idea. I can tell he's an interesting character. He doesn't work a conventional job. He's a full time "bitcoin evangelist."
sounds like a fed
See? He's very clever. I let my guard down.

True. It was surprising to me. Other than him, everyone seemed very open and not guarding their privacy at all.
did you introduce yourself as Siggy? what if someone from SN is also there and recognized you, it could be quite fun but also a bit dox yourself?
You know, I have a heck of a time avoiding saying my real name to people in person. I slipped up at the beginning. I once went to PubKey and was sitting next to Peter MacCormack at the bar. We introduced ourselves and I screwed up, then said Siggy. He said "hah! You doxxed yourself!"

I never had to be a hands-on person until my son really got himself engrossed in putting stuff together, be it jigsaw puzzles or Lego blocks or dinosaur bones. I dare say he is more patient than me. This is our Proof of Work this morning - he kickstarted it and I took over the small parts. I’m rather impressed with myself for sticking it out haha

Re-presentRe-present
In administrative and judicial court you will be required to have someone, usually a lawyer or solicitor, to represent you, or for you to “represent” yourself.
However if you accept this, you now have a lower status than the lawyer or solicitor, who has a lower status than the judge. It is also impossible to “Re-present” yourself, as you can only present yourself.
What this tactic is trying to do, if you accept this offer, is to get you to represent your legal fiction, and in some courts you will be representing a trust that was made in your name without your knowledge or consent.
