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!
Footnotes are one of the itchiest things to implement when the 'preview' is the editor itself.
I don't like footnotes. Especially on SN. Are fucking tiny!
What about Wikipedia 'footnotes'?
asking because it's like 1000 times easier
hoooly shit you made those letters small on purpose to blind me?
I am for making SN fonts bigger.
hahahaha happy mistake, I use SN with 150% zoom
I am not such a boomer to use zoom on my browser...
EDIT: I am a boomer, but not like that hahahaha
I have to, look at what 100% zoom looks like on my screen:
I would get blind in 5 seconds.
edit: maybe a screenshot wasn't the best idea to represent how little characters are
I am 54 years old man, with 30 years looking into a fucking monitor. Let's not forget the early years of "computerism" with those big fucking radiation monitors flickering and messing with our eyes...
Young kids don't know how this was affecting our eyes forever.
Looking into a mobile screen for me is a pain. btw if you see one of my comments with a lot of misspelling ... is because I had to use a mobile (mostly when I get to shit).
I listened to the audiobook version of JBP's Maps of Meaning earlier this year. Yesterday, finished watching the 13-part series of him doing lectures on this at Harvard in 1996. As I was finishing up the series, the first episode of the new Maps of Meaning lectures dropped ... guess I'll be going through this material for the third time 🤓
view on www.youtube.comImagine a political movement actually being worried about losing Jewish support if money and Mossad weren't involved.

unloading moonshine?
Always! And loading up Bitcoin!
Hmm, tempting
there's a whole series of these
I like these playtoys. When I was a kid, I played a lot with plastic cowboys and such.
It was a nice time those pre-internet era....
I am impressed by these paintings

Me encanta esta sección ya que me ayuda a reflexionar sobre mi dÃa a dÃa es como un diario solo que no es privado pero te ayuda a desahogarte ya que le cuentas a quien sabe que que estás aquà que existes y quien sabe si te animas o animas, a veces me rio de cosas que leo y en otros casos reflexciono. Un dÃa ganando âš¡ y otras tan sólo acumulando. 👋
I'm at Pubkey right now listening to Erik Cason.
Maybe it’s just the building’s architecture that makes it feel like a church in here. We’re waiting for a highlight reel from the meeting!
hi erik lol
Someone I know was aghast learning that he put a check into Lightspark.
I'm going to ask him about that if I get a chance
Oh no it’s Eric Yakes that put a check in! I always get them confused
Good thing I asked him about Saylor being a triple agent CIA asset instead
did you really?
how's the food?
We got here a little late. We haven't eaten yet. From past experience it's really good, but the best pizza in NYC is a block or two away, whixh might lead us to leave the reservation.
i'm definitely checking it out next time i'm in new york
It is cool being in a physical space that only exists because of bitcoin.
On X I'm beginning to find slop news made from slop news made from slop news. It feels a bit like what I imagine dunking my brain in sulfuric acid would feel like. A gurgle and a fizzle and then a foaming simmer.
Web today for me is like this
Remember my old post warning in 2023 ? #171338

Can you repeat yourself again?
yaaaay k00b is back to memes !
Toady, someone asked me what I missed after switching to GrapheneOS
I told them, "Absofuckinglutely nothing."

what is pleb slop and why are ppl using that term so much now?
its cause "the influencers" got mad we started calling them "fiat bitcoiners" makes sense
https://blog.kagi.com/slopstop
"I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of material I understand to be pleb slop, but I know it when I see it. "
if u don't know what is plebslop, u are probably doing it!
My posts are pleb delectables!
i certainly wud call ur posts "delectable" or "delicious" in the same way that a Satan (hebrew shatan - adversary) wud call his sayings delicious; ur posting is an abhomnation (literally, away-from-man);
delicere "to allure, entice"
ab homine "away from man" (thus "beastly")
@NEEDcreations are u taking notes?
what is happening?! So much to learn
nice, I got homework! Thanks

i don't have the statistics on the plebslop of ur making, only the Great Creator can judge that; just based on ur biography, it's mostly plebslop and SN revenue analytics for self-gain (aka slowly robbing the bank);
bc pleb slop is everywhere lol
ask @thebitcoinbugle why they started with this term
abracadabra ya'all
Is the lightning whitepaper a good start for who want to know how ln works?
yes and https://lightning.how
Ok, now I understand clearly how channels and transactions work. Next step, learn how inbound and outbound liquidity works. I feel really dumb when the topic is ln.
Here I explain it:
here is very well explained
https://bitcoin.design/guide/how-it-works/liquidity/
and here is a short video by Rene Pickhardt
As silly as it may sound, this video made me understand how liquidity works much better than any other explanation or analogy. I read a lot about it, and in just a few seconds of video everything I had read became clear in my mind. Now my next challenge is to learn how to manage that liquidity.
That's why I post it.
Did you read all my guides?
https://darth-coin.github.io/nodes/managing-lightning-node-liquidity-en.html
I did, but I don’t understand it so much that time. Now it will makes more sense.
why we slandering plebs
because are plebs #551735

Info about the book: #1074789
Just finished reading Geoffrey West's "Scale", which people have commented on here before. It was very interesting in regards to cities and urbanization, but the last chapter was a bit anti-climactic because I kept expecting him to discuss AI more prominently. He brings up Kurzweil and The Singularity, but he seemed pessimistic about it at the time. The book was published in 2017, so I guess that's to be expected. I wonder what he would add now that AI is taking off.
Bitcoin outreach idea. The other day I gave a homeless guy a bag of beef jerky, a liter of water, and a dollar. What if I do the same thing again, but this time say it was from StackerNews? I could be the JustKnate of Bitcoin.

I'm a little uninspired at the moment [recovering from my first and hopefully last cold of the season], but good luck with your experiment!
Come by and read us anytime.
Do you have a policy about posting old material?
I don't see anything ruling this out in the territory description, although it does feel as though it would go against the spirit.
No such polic-ies. Post whatever compells you.
Finally some fresh air!

don't be silly and don't start vendettas here, is useless.

I don't understand what you are trying to achieve or do and why do you call me in this.
If you want to spend your sats (like you did with that useless boost) on a new territory, go ahead, it's your choice.

i called on u exactly because u have been here from the very beginning, already with the understanding of common sense, so some guidance is welcome; u are always honest;
thank u very much for ur sincere comments;
the spiritual war is on every front, including SN; SN is not good enough yet for me to liberally invite new users;
