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!

Starting to realize modern society for lack of a better term is a coincidence and I believe we have passed the point of no return and we will have to experience life how it used to be or worse before we can achieve something better again as a species. This probably wont help anyone. But low tech may be the future. Still probably wont help anyone saying this. But having a low tech hobby could be liberating. Maybe thats the thought for today. Get a low tech hobby and/or skill however big or small.

For example, can you forage firewood? Its not as simple as it sounds and you can save yourself some trial and error by researching with the means you have available TODAY. Spoiler: Fallen logs sitting on the ground are bad for firewood. It should be dead, free standing or leaning and essentially dried by the wind.

Can you forage plants? Do you know which ones in your area you can rely on in an emergency? Find out today. Spoiler: Dandelions may be safe to eat in an emergency.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day.

It's weird but I still feel like SN only has 10 stackers and they're all using hundreds of alts. When does that go away?

Invite us all to a party in Houston. That should do it!

Why Houston?

My bad. I was thinking of someone I knew who came from Houston.

Picking up some sushi rolls. Tuna Salmon and eel

reply

Eel is great but I can never tell if it's the sweet ass sauce that I like or the eel itself.

One of my favorite roll discoveries recently is salmon skin. Super fatty and cheap.

reply

I always find it interesting that Salmon was only relatively recently introduced to Japanese cuisine... definitely prefer salmon over tuna in sushi/sashimi.

Can't wait to read it. I really like black holes.

reply

Cannot wait.

reply

Why hasn't anyone created the altcoins territory yet ?

reply

If the territory revenues were much higher someone would because you would have guaranteed engagement from people trolling you all day.

Someone should create ~crypto but for cryptography

Yea it's definitely not a lot. My mining rig runs hands-free in the background, while SN requires active engagement, which I can't always do! :)

👀 good point!

Making a choice can be painful because it requires you to think about what you really want.

reply

Good morning everyone!! Wednesday is here and that means we're at the middle of the week, let us reflect on how our strategy is working, are we getting our desired results? Or does my strategy needs more tweaking? Just make sure your objective is on sight, one goal at a time will get to your bigger goal. So stay focused, motivated and enjoy the ride,learn from it. I wish you all an incredible Wednesday, may it be filled with success, profit and love. Remember that you're important and I'm proud of you, we've got this my friend, be well and stay frosty!!

reply

Good afternoon cowboy. Halfway through the week already. Two more days for me and the I'm off until 2nd January. I'm looking forward to the break.

When you ask the government for freedom, the stupidity of your petition is instant proof to the latter that you have no grasp of your rights.

Yesterday's rewards need to be distributed manually

https://m.stacker.news/8870

reply

I haven't received mine either. I just figured I'm not on the list. O well, doesn't make a difference if I get something or not. I'm still going to serve drinks day-in and day-out.

reply

This isn't about satoshis, it's about good content.

reply

You'll be pleased to know, rewards just got distributed a few minutes ago.

reply

when sn pays out yesterday's rewards, please let us know.

reply

a day gone by without rewards, something must be wrong.

we shall reflect within, or is it a bug due to disturbance?

reply

I don't know why it happens, but it has happened a few times.

reply

Many reports from my normie friends recently who suspect that their iPhones are listening in on their conversations and delivering custom ads.

I've directed them towards Graphene et al., perhaps one of them will make the switch.

reply

I don't really trust any device with a camera or microphone that's connected to the internet. I would recommend your friends switching off their Wi-Fi not in use. Perhaps they can download an app that mutes the microphone when not in use.

Thinking of giving myself a gpixel this Christmas 🔐🎅

reply

Last night I met a special girl, that's all

reply

She sounds very special. Congratulations my friend.

reply

I'm going around the house leaving messages on the back of used Christmas card envelopes with a Sharpie in each room to remind me to cancel my Amazon Prime trial. It really sucks to forget and give me less sats and Jeff more $$$s.

But I did see an article recently that Saylor was invited to Bezos' fiancée's birthday party recently. So he's probably stacking too...

reply

I think it's time you join the Strawhat Pirates. We don't pay for Amazon Prime.

I think Freiburg BitDevs is going to beat Austin BitDevs with the number of participants that showed up on the first meeting :)

I asked around and I already have two people that will very likely show up and some that said they are interested from the existing local bitcoin meetup (which isn't technical) but I am not sure if they will indeed show up.

According to @benthecarman, three people showed up at the first meeting of Austin BitDevs. @benthecarman, was that including the organizer or without?

But to be fair, it's also almost 2024 (and the start of a bull run?). So makes sense that there are at least a few more people interested in bitcoin than 2-3 years ago (?) when Austin BitDevs started. :)

(yes, I just pretended that I live in Freiburg. Or at least in the vicinity close to Freiburg? Or at least in the same country? Or at least in the same timezone? Or at least in the same hemisphere? ... lol)

reply

Time for a little wager?

reply

Lol. I would take you up on the bet but I'm already heavily invested in another bet with @orthwyrm.

reply

I wouldn't bet. I thought it could be a prediction market type thing!

reply

Ahh yeah, it was!

I'm not gonna win, so I'll fold early. __@_'-'

reply

Anything can happen in the next few days but thank you for folding early. It was a pleasure doing business with you. 🤝

Was it you I bet 10k sats for sub-$100 BNB by Christmas?

Looks like I'm going to lose this one.

Yeah, I'm susceptible. When your twenty something daughter tells her sixty something father he's texting too much, there may be a problem. I'm cutting way back, and trying to be more in the moment for my family and friends

We should probably have a space to talk about the stacker dopamine effect here. Especially around this time of year.

It is a real thing 😆 and at times more powerful than traditional sites.

Centralized control apartments? Haha I never thought about it in that way. There is simply too many humans. No space for everyone having a beautiful house with flowers and garden. Same way with cemeteries. Now there are vertical ugly cemeteries like skycrapers.

reply

Centralized control heating, water and electricity 👀 food from supplychain too.

There is simply too many humans. No space for everyone having a beautiful house with flowers and garden.

I feel like many people are being put into the cities, mostly due to work, there are still many empty space close to mountains and barely anyone live there.

reply

Agreed. Drive across the western U.S. states if you want to see wide open spaces. Same with giant swaths of Asia, Africa, Australia. Western Europe, I agree, is getting a bit crowded.

reply

Ah yes. I was thinking about the space in the cities that we already have. Some cities have no other choice but to expand vertically. In places where there is space, we still don't see those apartment buildings.

But there are always exceptions. Like Whittier in Alaska, in the mountains... yet, the entire town is in one centralized building. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FqLhFoQWwAIE5bg.jpg:large

reply

Whittier is one of the most spectacularly corrupt and dysfunctional towns you could ever find.

reply

I just watched a little YouTube documentary on Whittier. I think now they have two apartment buildings, but the one you showed has most of the residents and all the stores. Alaska is a crazy place.
