@ek hey I’m trying to buy an archived territory but SN is giving me a taken notification. I thought once the maintainer stops paying the fee you can assume that territory’s content. Is this a bug?

Anyone else having an issue with new episodes not appearing in the fountain app unless you refresh repeatedly?
New episode of a football podcast I listen to appeared hours ago on Spotify but only appeared on fountain after about 5 tries of swiping down in the app to refresh the library page.
reply
I had some issues after nostr integration , though they seem that have been sorted out.
reply
Yup I did. The episodes were showing up in my library feed sporadically and then when I went to the show’s channel directly I noticed all the episodes I did miss
reply
I only started noticing the issue when they did the nostr integration.
reply
I’ve always had this issue with Fountain, but I also had it happen with a football pod this week.

“First practice not letting people know who you are—keep your philosophy to yourself for a bit. In just the manner that fruit is produced—the seed buried for a season, hidden, growing gradually so it may come to full maturity. But if the grain sprouts before the stalk is fully developed, it will never ripen. . . . That is the kind of plant you are, displaying fruit too soon, and the winter will kill you.” —EPICTETUS, DISCOURSES, 4.8.35b–37

@k00b @ek Why is my post evn lower to a post that has been zapped only 100 Sats and only by one stacker?
It's the same everyday. My post never make it to the top 10 or 15 posts of the day even it's been zapped by 10 to 15 Stackers. Even posts with 10 or 20 sats stay higher.
I've looked up a bit more and even your post is like this. I'm not raising a question mark, just wanna know how does it happen. Not a concern, but confusing.

Ranking isn't based on sats alone.
reply
I know it's based on how many zaps you recieve, time etc. Even then, my post has been zapped by 15 Stackers. The post by deserdave is zapped only by 1 stacker yet it's above my post. This is confusing nothing else.

Who zaps is more important than how many. I know it's confusing and I'm sorry.
reply
You said who. How does this who matter? Is it dependent on a certain value? I am just curious.
reply
Yes routinely good zapping over a long period of time.
I recommend reading the FAQ.
reply
No, don't feel sorry. I believe only those things and people are confusing who are great and bigger than your own capabilities to understand. So, it's not a big problem, I've lived with a lot of other confusions, one more is not a big deal.

I joined a discord for a game that is in a play testing phase and using "blockchain". Im on the discord and its getting a lot of attention. Everyone that joins just says Gm, and there was a ton of messages like that. So now the discord censored it so you can say Gm anymore. Now everyone who joins just says Hi.

The Hidden Costs of Parenting
You only get to realise this when you plunge into the deep dark treacherous waters of parenting. You naively assumed that parenting is expensive because of diapers and childcare fees, but little did you expect that other costs pile up as quickly as vultures descending upon a carcass?
This morning, my son declared me to be a superhero with respect to the claw machine and summoned me to catch a squirrel. I failed miserably. $2 gone. Then, it would be the Mid-Autumn Festival next week. Of course, both kids wanted their own lantern. $9.85 gone. You would think that my girl would be grateful for my generosity, but NO! she wanted to sit in her favourite rocking submarine. Another $2 gone. But I guess I need to count my blessings. While my girl was swaying rhythmically in the vessel, my wife took my boy to the gachapon machine, where he would acquire yet another useless animal figurine. I consider it a calamity averted because the money wasn’t going to disappear from my wallet forced to undergo intermittent fasting.
I’m developing a headache. I need more referrals for Stacker News to amass my beer money. https://stacker.news/r/cryotosensei
reply
my mother has always told me after I spent a little too much on a worthwhile experience "after all, what is money for?"
headache is a hydration issue. even with a hangover, pickle juice is a better remedy than beer.

Not trying to make a spoiler, but the idea of the novel / movie was about how a modern slavery will look like. Is simply by consent, drugs, manipulation, deceive, lies. The drug addicts became the modern slaves of the ... you will see in the movie.
Also it contain some quite funny and dark humor scenes, sometimes you even think that is a bullshit movie with unnecessary long meaningless talks. But is not.
Is really interesting how they make this movie with real actors but animated.

Canon Law:

The term Canon Law comes from the Latin phrase, Ius Canonicum meaning “a System of Laws”, controlled and enforced by hierarchical authorities.
The word Canon is also said to come from the Ancient Greek word Kanon, meaning a “straight measuring rod, or ruler”.
Over time people within the Catholic Church used Canon Law to regulate, govern and control people towards the mission of the church.
Ecclesiastical law, which is supposed to be indirectly based upon immutable divine law and natural law, or the word of god, is now intertwined with Canon Law which controls the Roman Catholic Church, The Eastern Orthodox Church and the Anglian Communion Church.
