  • USA has made a lead of two Gold over China for the first time in these Olympics.
  • Australia is once again ahead of France for the third spot.

Could it be a coincidence that the two largest powers in the world economy are precisely the two that have won the most medals at the games?
reply
No, if it's a coincidence, it must run down through the list. India is fifth largest so it should be there but it nowhere to be seen in the top 50s even.
reply
Ok, I understand! I think that happens because it's not about how much population you have, but about how much quality population you are able to find, train and prepare for the occasion. And obviously that is due to the level of investment that each country makes in its sports area. And on the other hand, the gringos have always aimed to be number 1 in the world in everything. And CHINA, if it wants to be the next dominant empire, must compete with the USA in all possible aspects until the dragon 🐉 manages to surpass the eagle 🦅
reply
The great show on earth! China has 18% of the world’s population as takes young children away from their families to train them for the Olympics. The U.S.A. has 4% of the worlds population
reply
It may be true or may not be. I don't think that this is more than a conspiracy theory. China has got the facilities and right before and after the Bejing Olympics people have become more inclined towards sports. In India, it's just a lack of infrastructure and love for Cricket that's not letting Athletes prepare for Olympics.

Hi! I posted this #637969 in ~Stacker_sports 5 hours ago. Despite this post getting considerable amount of zaps, it's the last post for today's top posts (https://stacker.news/top/posts/day). What do you say on this? Has it been heavily down zapped? Is there someone WOKE among us? Who didn't like it?
reply
Hard to say. Sometimes it depends who and how many zap and comment.
reply
But, it's at the bottom! Even behind so many posts that even didn't get a single sat in zap!
Can't understand it and it has happened with me so many times mostly with the posts in ~stacker_sports.
reply
Maybe some people don’t like sports.
reply
I'm sure now that this post has been downzapped. It's sitting at last positions in my All posts and comments for the day!

Would be nice if you could see how many downvotes, the same way you can hover over sats and see how many upvote zaps you got.
reply
Yes, that would be great. I don't know why it's not been implemented till now? CC: @k00b
reply
If you hover over the sats with your cursor, you can see how many people zapped the post. Number of zaps matters more than amount of sats.
reply
I don't remember this from FAQ lol
reply
I remember it from one of the update posts. The FAQ is pretty out of date, unless someone's worked on it recently.
reply
Yes, that's fine! I'm usin' mobile. But, it's reeling at the bottom. Even below posts that haven't even been zapped with 1 Sat. It's happening with so often these days with me.
reply
It is odd that it's below unzapped posts. Maybe you do have an enemy.
reply
Yupp! I wonder I have many enemies.

I was gifted a small amount of sats back in 2015 from Coinbase as part of some promotion. I watched that stack 100x over the course of 5-6 years but never did anything to accumulate more or even understand Bitcoin. That decision plagues me to this day.
I got back into Bitcoin in early 2021. Ultimately, I had my epiphany with Bitcoin in 2022 and started taking it very seriously.
What's your Bitcoin story?

Another interesting fact is that the first Bitcoin transaction for a physical item was used to buy two pizzas in 2010. The amount paid was 10,000 BTC, which at today's values would be worth millions of dollars, highlighting how much cryptocurrency values have evolved over time.

The awkward moment when you zapped all the sats from the SN wallet and don't want to shown as a freebie. 🤯

it's already happened twice when I zapped all sats from the SN wallet with random zaps, what are the chances?
and two solutions:
  • wait for someone to zap you
  • top up the SN wallet

Here is what came to my mind so far 👀
  • The attached wallet If I set the desired balance to 100 sats, then I don't want this to be touched, not even zapping from it ( so no chance of showing as a freebie? ), or maybe having the option setting the zaps from the attached wallet first.
  • Login in with mail error I got errors when logging in with mail on the phone sometimes, it says either auth error or once I clicked the link to login, then it showed some random codes, and I needed to refresh the page then finally log in.
  • the comment section in bio They seem a bit useless, it's useful only when pointing out the scammers, but then they can always keep creating new profits - maybe the comments can be shown as a post instead of showing in the bio?
  • Not sure what you think of the leaderboard, but personally, I don't like it, how about going back to the old style? the one before March.
  • is photo frame possible?

The masses have never thirsted after truth. They turn aside from evidence that is not to their taste, preferring to deify error, if error seduce them. Whoever can supply them with illusions is easily their master; whoever attempts to destroy their illusions is always their victim. An individual in a crowd is a grain of sand amid other grains of sand, which the wind stirs up at will.

Authority

When someone is making a claim to their “authority”, they are stating they have the power or right to give orders and make decisions over their subordinates.
The title “authorities” is often, yet incorrectly applied to a person or organization having political or administrative power and control, without contract.
Authority can only come from the individual, and to become a “subordinate”, they must willingly, and without coercion give their authority to another.
This is usually done through contract, when a person decides to work for someone else, resulting in limited authority being given to the boss, who is limited by the policies written within said contract.
If anyone should try and impose their authority onto you, without agreement or contract, then this is a violation of your rights and should be challenged.
