270 sats \ 10 replies \ @gnilma 14 Dec \ parent \ on: NBA Emirates Cup Semifinals Discussion Thread Stacker_Sports
I'm watching right now. Just turned it on about 5 minutes ago. Hearing the commentators say a total Trae Young takeover in the third. Seeing Bucks taking a missing several 3's. If the 4th also goes this way, the Hawks may just be able to get it done and complete the upset. Let's see what the 4th brings.
You able to squeeze out some time to watch the game during your vacation?
Yeah, I'll be able to watch the rest of this one and most of the late game (possibly even with relatively few disruptions).

Nice. I feel like it's a luxury to be able to watch basketball uninterrupted these days. I don't think I can finish the rest of this game, because I have to go pickup my little one from Chinese school soon. Game is shaping up to be a tight finish, so I'll try to stay as late as possible before leaving.
Hey, if your wallet is not working, don't bother zapping my replies. I saw in another post that you were doing random 69-420 sats or something. Don't want you wasting sats on my trivial replies. I'm more than happy just having someone to talk basketball with.

I'll zap what I want to zap, thank you very much.

I am eager to get my attached wallets fixed, when I finally get home.

You use Alby hub on your own lightning node? If you don't mind doxxing your setup. If you do mind, a simple "none of your business" would suffice.
The reason I'm asking is that I tried Alby hub on my own lightning node running on Start9 Embassy. But the experience wasn't very good. The Alby hub would often times go offline making me unable to zap on SN. I ended up just switching to another custodial service using Coinos NWC for send.

I just have Alby Hub running on my PC. It's been working perfectly well, aside from occasional hiccups that you expect from new tech. I opened a public channel to SN, which is the bulk of activity on my node.
Did you try it early on? I know they made some updates to improve stability. I recall having more issues in the beginning, but I don't remember what they were.
reply
I tried it when SN announced they were moving to all self custody wallets. I think it was back in October? I don't remember exactly. It didn't work as well as I wanted, and the Coinos solution worked better, so I stuck with Coinos. Didn't really want to devote extra time into figuring it out, as SN being self custodial or not isn't that big a deal to me, I've always withdrawn sats to my own node when SN balance gets too high anyways.
Besides, I figured it might also be a better idea to keep less bloat and less attack surface running on my lightning node anyways, as I do keep a good amount of sats on there. So I'll just stick with my current setup with Coinos for now, until it doesn't work anymore.
Btw, I did end up catching the end of the Bucks vs Hawks game. Ended up watching / listening to the rest of it on my phone while driving to Chinese school. Seems like Giannis' big block on Capela plus Dame's clutch floater sealed the win for the Bucks. Looks like supercyclone is out and you may not need to pay that extra side bet; well, that's if OKC wins tonight, which I think is very likely.
