Did you update? You can also attach other wallets if you have some, we will try them in order.

I'll be okay. I'm just complaning. Oddly, this time my Alby Go connection was maintained, and I could still receive from SN. For some reason only my send connection to SN failed. I'll set it back up later.
I would like to attach other wallets. Unfortunately my old Umbrel node has the best liquidity, but Umbrel for some reason doesn't have https, which is ridiculous. I think that rules out lnbits and LND connections. I have to build up my other node with more channels and liquidity.

Ugh just hit the magical time of needing to do a colonoscopy. Proof of 💩 work they tell me. Should be fun… not
reply
113 sats \ 1 reply \ @zapsammy 4h
have you ever considered a CT colonography? the accuracy of detection is similar, the test is less risky, and it is less unpleasant. there is the radiation component, but if you only get radiated every few years and otherwise live a well-balanced life, it's worth it. there is, of course, a question of whether colon screening is necessary at all.
CT colonography is a safe and minimally invasive technique, a valuable diagnostic tool for examining the entire colon and a good alternative compared to other colorectal cancer screening tests because of its high sensitivity values in colorectal lesions over 1 cm.
this is only one article of many, via quick search; i myself wud go for CT colonography if i am still inclined to follow the traditional medical screening recommendation by that age. i also think that the rate of complications after colonoscopy in the community is severely underestimated and depends on the operator of the scope. procedures bill higher than prescriptions and recommendations, so scope operators are incentivized to do more and inevitably do them even if tired or angry. additionally, there is a constant debate on how big a polyp shud be before cutting it out... note, just like with colonoscopy, it is best to go to a center that does a lot of CT colonographies and have readers that interpret the results every day. (btw, barium enema is not the same, and worthless for polyp screening)

I have doctor friend that would agree with you on the risks of colonoscopy. I'm not sure if they'd advocate for a CT colonography instead though.

I post those memes mostly to shame the shitcoiners and assmilkers and not let them win. They can't even meme properly. Very rarely I see original memes, with PoW or at least humor. Many accounts that are used only to post a meme, idk why this crap.
But we have some good memers on SN, I don't know why they are not participating more often.

Being original with a meme is crucial. You must work your own memes. I sometimes, preparing my memes with days in advance for that contest...
Yes some old memes copied from random posting are also good, but depend on which moment you post them.
I can understand when somebody copy a meme and post it as a reply or something like that. That is just fine. But copying a worked meme and then post it in a contest is quite lame. At least mention the credits goes to x.

Don't try to slander me... and interpreting my answers in the wrong way. I know you hate me but this is not good what you are trying to do here. Included in a block it doesn't means is "confirmed".

I am giving you a chance to clarify what you are talking about since the way you reply to @0xbitcoiner makes us believe you think we can use RBF to create a chain split which is simply not true.
@0xbitcoiner: I am a bit lost. Isn't RBF just for transactions waiting to be confirmed (mempool)? It doesn't work after the transaction is in a block, right?
@DarthCoin: If the RBF have a higher fee and a miner willing to take, it will replace the previous one.
reply
I didn't said you can create a chain split. I only said that you can use RBF on a tx that already have 1 confirmation (as OP asked). Chain split is another story.
Again you are trying to twist my words.

With only one confirmation there is some chance that the block with the confirmation will get orphaned
Yes, but this has nothing to do with RBF.
In this case, your transaction will become unconfirmed again. It can re-enter the mempool. And RBF can come into play again.
Yes, RBF can only replace unconfirmed transactions. If it has only one confirmation, using RBF will not guarantee a double-spend, you would have to also hope for an orphaned block completely unrelated to RBF in which case it's unconfirmed again so RBF can work again.

This explanation is fine to me, but @DarthCoin didn't explain it this way. He just said "you can use RBF on confirmed transactions" which is wrong if you don't include the assumptions. He even linked the BIP which literally mentions it only works on unconfirmed tx instead of explaining himself better.
reply
We got 1 confirmation
"unconfirmed" means BEFORE being included in 6 blocks "confirmed" means included in 6 blocks
reply
33 sats \ 5 replies \ @ek 11h
I see what we're disagreeing on now:
"unconfirmed" means it's not included in any block at all "confirmed" means it was included in 6 blocks
Anything in between 1 and 6 blocks is neither confirmed nor unconfirmed.
If a tx has one confirmation, I would say it has one confirmation but it's not confirmed yet.
reply
211 sats \ 4 replies \ @DarthCoin 11h
I think we wrongful use this term "confirmation". A tx really is never "confirmed", it is just included in 1 block or 1000 blocks. We only agree that after 6 blocks all wallet apps will not let the user to do a RBF anymore, therefore, we consider it "confirmed".
0 sats \ 3 replies \ @ek 11h
Yeah, the RBF'ed tx got 1 confirmation after it was mined but both were sitting in the mempool prior to that. Nothing special about a tx having one confirmation. This is the picture before your picture:
reply
I do not understand why did you moved the discussion from OP to Saloon. OP asked: Why isn't one confirmation enough for a bitcoin transaction? So my answer is: because only after 6 blocks a tx can be considered "confirmed". Until then you can use RBF.
