Howdy there, partner! Welcome on into the Stacker Saloon.
Saddle on up to a stool and spill the beans about your day, fire away with them questions, or let loose and give us the lowdown on your wild and woolly life. We're all ears, so don't hold back!
We're open round the clock, so mosey on in whenever you please!
Keep using stacker news and engage with Bitcoin all the time!
Rather than slow down, the pendulum of American politics is swinging more wildly.
Mamdani wins New York. Guess we can give socialism the old college try
He earned his PhD
Question for Mr @ek. I just attached a second wallet. Will the most recent attached wallet serve as a backup for the first? Is there a way to switch between wallets without detaching them?
You can drag wallets around
Ah. That's right! Connections will be maintained?
Yes, dragging only changes priority.
More (potentially confusing) info here.
I just noticed this wasn’t updated yet:
Mobile now also uses dragging.
Thanks. I think I asked you this before but forgot (again)
No worries
Ty good stranger
i just found out today the usa government is shutdown, someone should really just post regular news here too 🤣
Lol wait I just saw this 😭💔 Im tryinggggg
thanks for your service ✌️
You must be highly drunk this all month long ;)
October was a busy month, think it just goes to show i am back to my normal schedule again.
Kind of sad or good didn't even notice.
oh! It's good you missed it. I don't think it affects Bitcoiners directly.
I was busy too and it's highly likely that I'll be busier this month too with the wedding season's on here. My two brothers are gonna be marrying in next few days this month. And yeah, I've a job at Bitcoin related stuff here too.
on a positive note, the fact that the gov't can be shut down for 30 days and many people not notice kinda shows the resiliency of the American system
wild
You're hilarious
There have been tons of posts and a month-long prediction market on Predyx that already closed
I think the takeaway is that you need to read the front page of bitcoin more

i mean, degens are gonna degen. I guess the degeneracy isn't saturated yet haha
no, this is just idiocy already. Any sane real bitcoiner will value every of his sats and will not gambling it. But spending it on things that really matter and are necessary. If you gamble with your sats it means you learned absolutely nothing about Bitcoin.

whoa we hit sub 100
market is risk-off cuz they don't know about the zombie cure
omg my voice is annoying?!?
it's like a 5 /10, not horrible
You’re calling my voice mid-annoying when you sound like a stoned 12yo that just drank a gallon of milk.
Hm I don’t think that’s true. I couldn’t imagine what that sounds like
fair, i can't imagine a homeless man that looks like he smells of lamb and eats a wheel of brie each day.
good random word generator ur using
it's called a brain you milk glugger!
lol not bad
Fwiw, I think both of your voices are calming
Now I wonder what my voice sounds like
you sound like a very serious robot a lot of the time. nothing wrong with that
Ohh right, someone in school also told me something like that
we'll all sound like robots soon....or do they sound like us
I’m actually trying to sing a little while talking
So they would need to match my way of singing while talking, too
I probably need to put more effort into it though
nah, don't listen to this Randy

lol had to go to X to realize the price was down despite it being in SN's navbar
i can't predict the future, but bear markets are great. people get absolutely silly when they think their riches will spontaneously give them more riches. the crowd goes mad, feeding on hopeful bs, and not just bitcoin bs, because if you want imbibe bs properly, you have to accept all kinds of it.
My zombie infection was cured by a mysterious stranger. Forever grateful to whoever had pity on me not having too much time these days. See you guys around probably next week.
"1000 sats on a dollar" season is getting back?
I'm cured by @Undisciplined.
None of you do not matter to me anymore, haha.
new trial tagline: "24/7 bitcoin meetup on a website"
the goal is something that makes immediate sense to outsiders even if it's insufficient for us insiders.
yeah
I like it a lot! It has a nice simple sound to it, like something I actually want to go check out.
bland...
How about "Enlightning communities with value" or "Enlightning people with value"
no, Enlightening is not misspelt... it clearly refers to LN, but for normies it may read misspell. It just adds some human touch. Keep it generic, community is definitely a value in SN. Used value at the end instead of bitcoin because that's what's given around here by users. And is given with words (knowledge) first, and with sats (that's just a detail).
If not defined anywhere yet, I highly suggest you guys take some time with the team to run a strategy workshop for defining Vision, Mission, ad future objectives for SN.
we know where we are going
this pitch is great for LPs, similar discourse could work to engage with more territory funders. Not ideal to onboard the next wave of new stackers.
The tagline should be attractive for the target audience. It could be tricky because every territory operate differently. I found "En-lightning people with value" is a common ground that apply to all territories. Audience does not need to know abut bitcoin, just need to be willing to learn about a new platform.
Another one I read around that could work really well is "fixing communities with economics". A copywriter could help find better wording
If I never visited SN before, I would have no idea what that meant.
oh great another product that's so full of shit, so bland they have to make up for it by spewing crap, that they can't even just say what the f they are in way that I understand
is that a response chadGPT just gave you?
nothing makes me boil like vague copy
usually you can explain more by trying to explain less
How about "The Most Based Community on the Interwebz"
I definitely like putting the word community in the tagline!
imo community means so many things that it's practically meaningless.
i'd argue that it only has one usual meaning, which is a group of people who share something in common
not sure if it has other meanings besides that
fair, but it's used to describe too many things. it doesn't really tell me anything except that there are based people peopling on the internet. it's helped by "most" but that's super unverifiable.
free your mind of ever having heard of SN. what would you need to hear - from someone you do not trust at all - to best understand what SN is and as fast as possible.
"Reddit, but without stick-up-their-butt moderators, and where not every post is a stupid meme followed by 100 people (or bots) repeating the same stupid meme. Oh, and you earn bitcoin tips instead of upvotes"
Excellent! Just too long ... and referencing reddit will always require the rest of the tag to be a
diff.yeah I prefer "people" too
I like the direction but it's a bit meh
How about "The never ending bitcoin meetup" or "On demand bitcoin meetup"?
"1000 songs in your pocket" vs "the never ending music player" vs "on demand music"
When we think of copy, we tend to think fantastical is better because of how we feel when we use fantastical words, but literal/concrete (and, yes, ideally profound) makes easier sense and an easier sell.
I'll give you that the tagline is literal in a boring way, but if we want to make it more interesting we:
We want to make the truth interesting without having to use words that we'd categorize as interesting by themselves.
"1000 autists in your pocket"
Perfection!
I like "1000 songs in your pocket" because it's short, intriguing, and tangible.
I was trying to think of how to word a pitch that made SN sound like an all-night diner or all-you-can-eat buffet but I didn't come up with anything.
I don't like the "on a website" part because I don't think people prefer that (or want to prefer that) to IRL, so you're planting a dig in your own pitch. Just "24/7 bitcoin meetup" is better.
Best little whorehouse in the west came to mind...
Can we do something like the Best Little Bitcoin Meetup on the Web?
I like it
I agree but "on a website" grounds the metaphor hmmm
I think it's ok to leave that implied
I really like the 24/7 Bitcoin meetup on a website.
It sounds kinda simple and charming to me. It says what it is.
But if you think website makes it too long, what about
The 24/7 Bitcoin meetup with zaps
If the goal is for it to be meaningful to non-bitcoiners, then you can't talk about zaps.
I think I'd even like "A 24/7 virtual Bitcoin meetup" more. It's really the "on a website" that feels like a turnoff.
I was on linkedin today and saw someone I know with their truncated bio of "Pioneering ______" and I puked in my mouth a little. I know I'm extra sensitive to this, but I don't think I'm wrong about how f'ing pat this stuff is.
Bitcoin must be learned when is needed not when is wanted.
what's wrong with "The Frontpage of Bitcoin"?
I like this one, it feels authentic in a very SN fashion. Spinning off Reddit's tagline has always felt tad hokey to me. Just my two sats.
I can't easily ...
And it's something that any bitcoin news site, of which there are many, can say.
It's just too abstract. No mental locking pins click when I read it.
True. And SN has more than just bitcoin discussion.
That's a good tagline! 😃
Actually, yeah, it's not bad!
SN is not about bitcoin anymore...
yes, but like a bitcoin meetup, all of us are bitcoiners that discuss bitcoin and non-bitcoin things
I think we are overwhelmed by shitcoiners rn... and by shitcoiners I mean including fiat maxis.

#678449 is the item I use to test the new editor rendering capabilities.
It's amazing how the only sentence that breaks quote nodes is the following:
> Urgent Action Required: SEC Lawsuit Dear Siggy the idiot old guy,> Urgent Action Required: SEC Lawsuit Dear Siggy the idiot old guy,Dear Siggy the idiot old guy,
interesting...
line breaks don't break quote mode, but paragraph breaks do.
You got the bug! The markdown transformer doesn’t know how to handle line breaks. So a line break would create a full paragraph node instead of… a line break
But I’ll teach it.
Would that break formatting of older posts?
The goal is to avoid precisely that! I want to achieve 1:1 formatting before migrating anything

Upon picking my boy up from school, he eagerly rummaged through his bag to show me his Chinese magazine. He had learnt that clownfish change their gender to adapt to changing circumstances and wanted to let me know.
I also had something to tell him. The rhinoceros hornbill, said to have been extinct in Singapore, was recently spotted on our city-state. Maybe it had come over from Malaysia. Swapping one interesting fact for another.
I guess it’s nice to live through life having some people occupy prime territory in my mind.

Excellent article, very good.
When I was a child, I grew up in a Masonic lodge. My father is a 32nd-degree Mason, my brother was a Mason up to the 18th degree... but I never wanted to be one.
Mark Passio explains that almost no one in the mainstream masonic lodges deserves to go past the 1st degree, because they cannot truthfully answer the question "how does one know that he is suffering?"
Very good question! As a Christian, I could answer it... but as a Freemason, I don't know what answer to give.

I’m cured!!
@SimpleStacker fought valiantly to save us all, and sacraficed his own life.
As soon as the cure was ready, I used it on a few people and went to sleep, knowing that it would inevitably spread and come back to me! Haha
i couldn't stand the thought of you not sleeping. i would've let the zombies take over. only 14 of you remained uninfected in the end
If you hadn't deployed it that night, I think I would've gone to sleep anyway and taken my chances, just hoping there would be at least someone out there still uninfected
🫡
Sheesh
you will be cured only when you will drop all that fiat shit from your mind.
Not according to SN! I got my shot
Practicing What You Preach: Samourai Could Demix Transactions #1273202
Didn’t they tell users they did this?
I think it was well known that Samurai mobile wallet was exposing your XPUB. Sparrow had it blinded so I'm not sure why they couldn't do it too
I forgot the reason why they did it but if you ran your own node I think you avoided this privacy leak
I’m not a specialist, but I think some users have to provide the xpub. Is that right, @DarthCoin?
I wonder when people will pay more attention to my past warnings: #688652
