Quick question: Is there a way to zap cowboy credits instead of SATs? It would also be cool to automatically zap cc's to any accounts without an attached gun, but there probably isn't a demand for it. I'm getting a little sick of all these horses without guns.
you really don't need any of those horse and guns. Just plain CC. Make your life easier.
I think there are a pretty high percentage of newbies for whom Stacker News is their first and only exposure to the lightning network, and to actually transacting with bitcoin.
I'd support a setting for this!
I never paid attention to this
I never did either until recently. I mean, I don't mind new stackers who are just getting a feel for SN. What really bugs me are the guys who have been here a while whose motives I'm beginning to question.
Yeah a lot them don't have the gun including some big names here...
Oh my dear @car where's your gun??!
I agree the CCs have given a fair advantage to those who aren't willing to zap real sats.
Coins enters the chat coming in spicy 🌶️
Am I zapping you sats?? Can you please confirm my spice for ya??
The zine creator and distributer also don't have the gun.
We can probably say she looks pretty without a gun.
Hahaha I just never paid close attention to this
Like Darth! Bangs on me but yet only uses CCs 😆
He's a different case. He stated he wasn't connecting from day one, and he doesn't have a horse. The ones with JUST a horse connected that bug me.
Ahh okay. The growing pains of SN adoption.
While I'm in complaining mode, now if you hide your cowboy hat status you automatically hide your attached wallet status. That makes it easier for assmilkers to hide.

Do you have any experience with carnivorous plants, such as the Venus flytrap? I find them fascinating
Is this picture one that you’ve taken on?
I get one maybe once every two years, forgetting that they always die when in my possession. I’m also fascinated by them, but my experience personally is that they’re hard to keep alive.
I have probably been responsible for the death of at least 20 of these during my lifetime. I've killed a few bonsai trees too.
I assumed that they are self-sustaining because they catch insects haha. Like a terrarium. Thanks for setting the record straight for me.
I took this picture while on a field trip with my daughter. No, I didn’t buy it to keep it. Didn’t think my wife would have allowed
Yeah, they always do a great job catching bugs (mostly ants, which is great). For me, it’s the water, light, and temperature situation.
Thanks! Will tell my son that. We just visited an ant exhibition yesterday
mealworm -> ant -> Venus flytrap
This is turning out to be a fascinating food chain
First time paying for food and drink at a square terminal using Alby Go and it was absolutely magical!!!
Now I see why Darth is so hard on me and why banks are so afraid of this tech.
You literally don’t need any of them (banks, card networks, etc.) to transact!!
What an experience. (I drove a pretty good distance to experience this)
wait had you never experienced this?
Not in normie land nope. But at bitcoin events I have
Surely added another level of satisfaction n sensation to the taste of the food and drink!
Indeed!
