@k00b I notice more rewards than usual. Is the incident also affecting the rewards?
Or was just due to some boosts?

The first day of the big release there was a bug that doubled rewards.

Since then, there have been boosts. Also, the new code does a better job of accounting for every millisat that belongs in rewards.

there is a variety of nicotine lozenges that is pretty clean; in case someone is addicted behaviorally as well as thru the nicotine substance itself, a Nic Nac is at least non-toxic, without the actually dangerous industrial chemicals;

I only know this one 'zine', and it does the exact opposite of that one. This one gets rid of the red-eye effect. The guys my age used to use it a lot.

I think it always rotated. At least I must've made it rotate shortly after introducing it. Rendering more than a couple hundred comments has always been a lot.

this gene was not lost, it was edited out; CRISPR is not a new technology; that was not evolution, but involution-degeneration; collagen synthesis and white blood cell function suffer as a result - note the epidemic of arthritis, infectious and neoplastic diseases; what kind of "evolution" is that?!

I wonder how you’d make a tractor beam with known physics.

.... i really don't want to do this, but I am diving into how to use the Reddit API now...

reply

ok, I needed to apply for access... I applied under "researcher" and briefly explained why I need the data

as far as i can tell, the request just went into the black hole... who knows when/if I'll hear back...

reply

just finding out now that the move to restrict API access to only registered developers was a new move in 2023 that caused some controversy...

yet another way in which SN is superior to Reddit...

So are our profile pics just gone?

reply

Yes. My changes marked all profile images as unpaid, then they got wiped. Images are replicated, but we hard delete stuff.

I'll look into some kind of short-lived archiving for deleted images where they can mature into hard deletion.

reply

Unpaid? I guess I missed where we have to pay for images we uploaded years before.

Am I understanding that our profile pics were deleted because now they cost credits?

If that is correct I think this could have been handled better.

Here is another reminder of our fortnightly appointment, to brainstorm ideas and bring projects forward. Similar to the Stacker Saloon, it will stay pinned in the ~Design territory hot section for two weeks, recursively, giving us time to discuss and provide feedback.

Whatever you are thinking about... A new app? Book? Review your apartment furniture setup following feng shui? Upgrading your 4x4 suspensions? 3D print something for your miner? Redesign your garden yard? What else?

Share it in the pinned post What creative ideas have you been rambling on?

₿e Creative, have Fun!

this is so funny; even more thot-provoking wen u type:

on another note, there really needs to be a satoshi symbol; maybe -|||- is a worthy candidate in the meantime;

Yep, here's some context https://github.com/stackernews/stacker.news/issues/2634
We're going to address this as soon as possible, it only happens if we're under 200 comments in a comment section, but more than ~150.

Ahahah. I reported it. Didn't realize the comment doubling had anything to do with it.

I remember when over 100 comments in the saloon was normal

People are so desperate to believe that voting, politics, or men are the answer they are blinded to the obvious. Fiat money is the root problem for many of the problems we have today.

People are wanting the government that has created this system that erodes our life's energy "money" to fix what they designed and profit from.

We have the answer. Bitcoin. But yeah. Play the Trump or the anti-Trump. Keep it up and see how well that works.

reply

A total lie, the damn Fiat system will never end. Accumulate and carry on, don't listen to the noise.

It may be related to an error I introduced for autowithdraw. But if you're receiving sats fine, you can ignore it.
