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!

(I had this post written up on the day of but somehow didn't post it)

so many comments and it's only 8:46 am! I'm going in to work a few hours today, hopefully I can get these navigation lights working so I can go on my training-cation without preoccupying myself with the status of the boat. (I will need to continue on the boat when I get back to work on the 25th)

In other news, it looks as though we're adding a short-film screening of a bitcoin-themed film on Friday October 27th as the (current) opening to our Bitcoin Vortex, a series of Bitcoin events highlighting our greater Miami bitcoin community.

Been experimenting with some haiku on my break;

I am so damn tired, Where did all my money go, Bitcoin fixes this.

Thanks to @siggy47 for the encouragement and Jack & The Dharma Bums for the inspiration.

I couldn't write a haiku to save my life. I have participated in impromptu drunken, inappropriate haiku contests and I always lost.

reply

Impromptu drunken, inappropriate haiku contest? No therein lies a story I’m sure..

reply

A really raunchy haiku can be very funny. I don't remember any of them.

reply

Doing some cleaning and packing, thus cleaning hack of today: you can easily mix baking soda with vinegar or lemon, optionally adding a few drops of essential oils for a nice smell, to clean many places at home.

Simple, natural and well-cleaned.!

reply

Be mindful of the how much vinegar you are using. The scent will linger especially in small spaces. Got a recommendation once to use vinegar to remove salts stains from entrance matting. It somewhat worked but because the entrance matting was located in an air lock vestibule of a building the smell lingered for a couple days after.

This is new.

The saloon has been open for a few days now. Since Monday I think.

Is there something like an international bitcoiner fund that helps use bitcoin in society-advancing ways? I don't just mean they incubate Bitcoin devs, I mean that spends Bitcoin in socially advantageous ways on things completely unrelated to tech or cryptocurrency?

Hi everyone. We arrived finally in our village in the region of Tarifa/ Spain. Sitting and watching the african coast with a strong vino tinto. Only sounds are the wind and the birds... complete disconnect (except of SN...) Wish You all the best.

No - I was just working there for a few weeks. Was in Cadiz earlier this year as well - stunning.

Go to a web site like postimages, upload your photo, then copy the direct link, and follow the markdown directions to post a photo. I took the ferry to Ceuta years ago. Passing Gibraltar was the best part of the trip

What is poisoning peoples minds? The amount of misconceptions that are taken as truth is incredible.

For example fat doesent make you fat. And when you are fat its not even fat, its water. But nobody wants to hear it. Bye.

@k00b @sn would be possible to have this "saloon" also in audio version, where stackers can join and talk directly, like in a real saloon?

Then we'll lose Nemo. He's probably some famous guy who would get doxxed through his voice.

not really, I could use a voice distort to sound like Vader, for example... I don't care if people are listening my accent, very few could identify it exactly. Even then, it doesn't really matter, I am just a bitcoiner.

Yep. I used to have several "identities", especially separating the online "life" from real physical life, as living man.

I also use 2 identities in real life: public and private. Remember that we have those 2, but few people know how to use them and in which situation - read Living in the private

You can easily create a false identity online named John Barbossa for example and create a false life around it. Use that one in all interactions where you think you could be watched for example, give them false but quite believable story.

Meanwhile live your normal life without being bothered.

Yes, I know some info about my real life I start leak it here, but is OK, is just a transition until I will be ready to reveal more.

2529 sats \ 5 replies \ @ek 16 Sep 2023

ᕦ(ò_óˇ) Day 1 of exercising everyday before the saloon opens

Got up at 9am and went for a 10min jog to a calisthenics park inside a open-air stadium but noticed it's closed since it belongs to the university. Then took a walk in the local forest and jogged for another 20mins when I noticed I am again being lazy, lol.

Went home, showered and feel good now. Tomorrow, I'll go to the other calisthenics park without any gates.

I shouldn't underestimate how important strength training is. In the past, I focused too much on cardio. I used to go to a gym but I never liked working with machines or bells. Too boring, too many people (which means you may have to wait), you're inside (and not in nature). I only liked the rope exercises. Climbing up a rope or swinging it.

Body weight exercises seem to be much more my style.

reply

Awesome. If you haven't already done so then def check out the bodyweight fitness subreddit, good guides there.

reply

Thanks, I didn't but I'll do!

reply

Even a 5 minute circuit of strength exercises pay dividends. Trim trails and outside exercise locations are good but don’t let their absence stop you. Press ups, sit ups, squats for 45 secs on- 15 sec rest and repeat. Good job on starting!

reply

Press ups, sit ups, squats for 45 secs on- 15 sec rest and repeat.

That's HIIT training right?

I used to do this 20min workout regularly and it was fun: https://youtu.be/dS4uUM5UfOA?si=9iXmN3Vk-XDMIot7

But I would probably die in the first few minutes now, lol

When I feel better, I will definitely do some HIIT again :) I really like to be competitive with myself so integrating a clock into the workout works well for me.

I also tried to join the sub17 club in the past (5km in less than 17 minutes) but I always hit 19min +-5s

reply

That is a HIIT protocol - but you don’t have to start at ‘super high intensisyy’ just ‘high enough intensity’

5km is a technical as well as physical challenge..

Be careful... Bukele is buying in secret all the plane tickets for going back. Planes from El Salvador are flying empty back to their origins.

There's an older couple up the road with lots of chickens. I would keep chickens but we're not allowed in my section. We buy our eggs from them. Last time I got my eggs I tried to get them to accept bitcoin. They refused. They want that green paper. I won't give up.

When Hurricane Sandy hit it really woke me up. I only had a small gas generator and we lost electricity for two weeks. Very little gas was available on Long Island. Long lines at gas stations, fights broke out. It showed me what can happen when "normal" disappears
