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.

reply

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.

reply

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.

reply

Coins enters the chat coming in spicy 🌶️

reply

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.

reply

Hahaha I just never paid close attention to this

reply

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.

reply

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?

reply
48 sats \ 4 replies \ @jasonb 2h

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.

reply

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.

reply

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

reply

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)
