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

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;

join the downzapping-nozapping campaign #1280472
reply
you should learn how to use SN better. Downzapping doesn't help too much, it only feed more the territory owner and even the OP himself.
reply
i am not familiar with the exact zapping/downzapping and revenue dynamics, please refer me to a comprehensive ~meta discussion @k00b @ek @Car; i wud think that if it didn't work at all then it wud not be a feature; it wud be interesting to conduct a social stacker experiment - a whole day or a week of downzapping and no-zapping, thru conscious post filtering; i know that the assmilkers wud also start downzapping indiscriminantely; nonetheless, there is a way to at least expose the incorrect behaviors;
if the stacker.news clean-up trial fails, what guarantees that the nostr-mainchain intergration wud work at all?! i am referring to this post: #1279868

You are asking the guy that put "Jesus" in his bio profile, run a "christianity" territory and in the same (hypocritical) time is supporting gambling activities on Predyx...
You guys are nuts.... or just assmilkers trying to fool clueless stackers.

hey man, i spread the messages across all territories; there is not one territory that is not polluted; if the Jesus guy is fake, he will eventually be outed by proper stackers, like u just did;

"During evolution, some species including humans, monkeys and fruit bats lost the ability for ascorbic acid (AA) biosynthesis due to inactivation of the enzyme L-gulono-lactone oxidase (GLO) and subsequently became dependent on dietary vitamin C." source
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 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?

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.

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.
