I lost my horse. I demand a recount.

I support you for the demand. I think horse has something to do with the boosts.

So last night I got a horse, along with the notification saying I'd found one.
Before I went to bed, I re-attached my receive wallet and raised my desired balance above 0 to hold some rewards for the AM.
Woke up to another notification saying I'd found a horse, but with the horse gone.
Besides the second notification being wrong, is the rest working as intended?

This happened to me this morning with my gun. So this is some kind of bug.
reply
Ah ha!
And the steed has returned!
Just the notifications part is the bug, right?
reply
I’m not sure yet. Whatever it is it’s affecting all of us at least.

hmmm the notification sounds like a bug.
Everything else seems fine, yeah.
reply
Okay cool, thanks!
I re-attached it because my settings weren't saving while trying to update my desired balance. Sometimes it doesn't save, sometimes it does, and sometimes it timeouts out on me.

Which wallets are you attaching?

Coin.os LN address for receiving, and Coin.os NWC for sending

Thanks. Coinos was having trouble yesterday so that might explain the timeout.
In any case, we still have a lot of work to do. :)

The consequences of being a huge asshole are hard to measure. Most people won't argue with huge assholes, reserving that kindness for people worth the effort. Without evidence of people arguing with them, they probably conclude everyone is as lonely as they are.

How did you get all that sick gear??

The horse is for receiving zaps to an attached external wallet. The gun is for sending zaps from an attached external wallet.

I just can't handle being good or bad. Maybe there can be more than one ugly.
reply
It's true my horse has no name. Shhh. I don't have a horse yet. Not on SN or in RL as they say.

I guess in reality a horse wouldn't be useful or easy to care for in a desert?

Today’s society is no longer Foucault’s disciplinary world of hospitals, madhouses, prisons, barracks, and factories. It has long been replaced by another regime, namely a society of fitness studios, office towers, banks, airports, shopping malls, and genetic laboratories. Twenty-first-century society is no longer a disciplinary society, but rather an achievement society. Also, its inhabitants are no longer “obedience-subjects” but “achievement-subjects.” They are entrepreneurs of themselves.

That's just telling you that a zap you received went straight to your attached wallet.
The UI/UX here needs work. I ended up turning those notifications off which made me forget about it.
reply
Speaking of notifications, is there any way to get notified about where referrals are coming from? I (rarely, like once a week) get a notice that I've stacked a handful of referral sats. Since I don't self-promote/link in general, I'm assuming these are from other people sharing a post or comment somewhere, but I've got no idea which posts are generating the referrals.

Not yet. But we should be able to surface it. Good suggestion.
reply
As far as I can tell, that zap was for this post. But I only received notification of what it was after receiving the last zap on the post. After receiving the zap (14), on the site there was no change in the value staked in the post. It was at 30 sats and only increased after receiving another zap (30). 30->30->94
reply
Zaps for the same item are aggregated into one notification and are given the sort order of the latest zap on the item.
reply
I had already understood this but in this case several minutes passed between zap 14 and 30 and the notification of which post was zapped only appeared after the last zap (30). Between the two zaps the staked value of the post didn't change.
reply
You can't determined if/when the stacked value of the post changed by looking at your notifications, so I'm not sure how you come to the conclusion that it didn't.
reply
I didn't check this in notifications. After receiving the notification (14) I went to the main interface and nothing had changed.
The sequence was: [30 sats] Charted: Organization Megadonors To The 2024 U.S. Election notification 14 [30 sats] Charted: Organization Megadonors To The 2024 U.S. Election several minutes passed notification 30 [94 sats] Charted: Organization Megadonors To The 2024 U.S. Election
reply
If you went to the main page via the back button, it wouldn't have changed.
Ever since I took snap and X off my phone I find myself on SN a whole lot more. Which I draw two conclusions:
  1. Phone addiction is real
  2. Using SN and nostr to appease my doom scrolling.
But with that said I’m always thinking of things I want to add and post to SN. But unfortunately I have a job and other obligations that don’t allow me to stay on SN and write all day long.

94% OF BITCOIN HOLDERS ARE IN PROFIT
Bitcoin ripped past $65K, and now 94% of the crew—over 50.67 million wallets—are in the green.
But check it: around 3.37 million peeps bought in at an average of $68,139 and might be feeling a bit of FOMO.
With $145 million in shorts getting wrecked lately, it’s clear traders are hunting for those quick flips.
Plus, the RSI’s chilling at 64, so we’re definitely in overbought territory.

Citizen’s Arrest

A citizen's arrest is an arrest made by a private citizen. Because the word citizen now has other connotation today, the word sovereign arrest would be better suited.
Sovereign arrest is a person who is not acting as a sworn law-enforcement official but is acting within common law.
In common law jurisdictions, the practice dates back to medieval England and the English common law, in which sheriffs encouraged ordinary people to help apprehend law breakers.
Today a living breathing man or woman can arrest another person, if they are a witness to a crime and have first-hand knowledge, however if you’re going to do this then be ready to back up your claim with an affidavit, or a declaration of truth within a court of law.
Because the average person has not already sworn an oath to uphold the law the correct procedure would be as follows.
  1. Tell the person you are placing them under arrest.
  2. Give them notice of the crime they have committed.
  3. Give them the name of the victim.
  4. Notify them that you will swear an oath to this using an affidavit.
Note: If you arrest someone in this way you are now responsible for the claim.

Never put yourself in a "nationalist" cage.... A sovereign individual is not part of any group or national social naming.
When you say "I am portuguese or chinese" you put yourself straight under a State jurisdiction, aka slave.
Just say "I am myself, my own country (as regional place not as state), wandering around".
reply
I'm Portuguese because I was born in Portugal, you've misunderstood. I am a citizen of the world!

one-world citizenship is almost here. depending on who wins the control over the citizens, punishments will vary from decapitation to eternal brainwashing using EMF-emitting helmets.

Officially 1 year of 100+ pushups per day 🤠 I started on October 15 2023, my initial goal was to do it for 7 days as a small challenge to myself. To my surprise, it wasn't that difficult to pull off, so I just kept going :) In the meantime, I've travelled from Darwin (Northern Territory, Australia) to Perth (Western Australia) to Byron Bay (New South Wales, Australian east coast) to Thailand, back to Byron, then Bali, Estonia and more recently to New Zealand. Didn't miss a day (sure, a couple of times I did the pushups well after midnight, but it still counts in my book). Where there's a will, there's a way 🤠
Day 263 of the #100aDayTil100k challenge, sets breakdown: 50 normal/narrow, 21 pike, 30 diamond, 20 side-to-side, 16 pseudo, 24 staggered, 21 normal on fingertips; Total: 182 (Day 367 of 100+ pushups per day in total; day 266 of 120+ pushups per day)
