A lesson perhaps for Odell in how to shout without using ALL CAPS.
Every month I shiver in my stacker boots…
Have you considered paying for all time instead of month to month?
I have and I would love the ability to switch payment terms.
I suspect in sat terms it will become cheaper to purchase outright in future, but probably would be better to buy outright than rent it each month. Can amortise the cost over a lengthy period.
I didn’t realize you couldn’t switch payment terms? Is that the case?
It’s on the roadmap is my understanding.
Prioritised probably middle of the road, even though it would be a big money-maker.
Territories was just a MVP, so there’s a few kinks still to iron-out.
We are getting closer to the future.

Yesterday's comment
Day 50's comment
is the meme Monday you need to share the meme created by you?
if not, that would be a bit unfair for the creator? 🤔
Makes me think that forwarding sats from comments would also be nice!
music mood of today 👀
view on youtu.becan you play this? @ekzyis
What a great share. Love the sound of the oud.
I love oud, beautiful, deep and powerful.
Listened a number of times to another great track from them today (Asfâr)
Thanks for introducing me to this fraternal oud trio :)
I was replaying this one today too, so great!
Found a sheet:

I can give it a try tomorrow :)
will improvise the left hand since only right hand will sound weird I guess
excited!
do you like this song?
Not something I would listen to on my own but definitely sounds interesting!
Gives me secret agent vibes. As if I am entering a bazaar and pretending I just want to buy some stuff. But I am actually waiting for someone to show up while trying to keep a low profile because there are a lot of other secret agents, too. And then later, the person shows up and it gets more exciting.
Basically, it gives me Assassin's Creed Brotherhood multiplayer vibes:

what if @ekzyis turned out to be a elder woman, and @Natalia is an old man, @nemo is a young girl:)

Gotta move this herd to the west Tennessee stockyards.

I kept waiting for a picture to load in your comment lol
Not today! 🤣
“When I first heard about Bitcoin, I thought it was impossible. How can you have a purely digital currency? Can’t I just copy your hard drive and have your bitcoins? I didn’t understand how that could be done, and then I looked into it and it was brilliant.” — Jeff Garzik
If your keys are on the hard drive, you can just copy it and take control of the Bitcoin!
There's a name I haven't seen much of since 2017. Jeff Garzik picked the wrong side (the big blockers) in the Blocksize Wars and then embarrassed himself by introducing a critical coding bug in the Segwit2x 'upgrade' that the New York Agreement conspirators were trying (but failed) to push on the Bitcoin community.
Cool quote but dodgy source.
He was on the wrong side of history, as most of us will be at some point, about something.
He was on the side of the biggest attack so far mounted against Bitcoin, which most of us here consider a world historic and immensely valuable technology project. So that's being pretty wrong and I wouldn't expect any of us here have been wrong in such a significant way.
Bitcoin has an immense power to expose character flaws in all people touched by it (I include myself) so if you choose to play on the main public stage with Bitcoin, as Jeff did, thinking he was up to it, you will be judged and possibly found greatly wanting. That's what happened with Jeff and also many others who have fallen from grace after being a major player in the space for some time (Gavin Andresen and Michael Hearn being other prominent players prior to Garzik who also suffered a great fall, and there are many, many more). That's why the 'stay humble' dictum is so key to healthy involvement with Bitcoin.
But as I said the quote is cool and yes, stands by itself. It was just surprising for me seeing Jeff Garzik's name again after quite a long time, and it took me back to that crazy (and highly stressful) year.

Some "that moment"-moments I saved for the saloon:
I think watching someone climb tells you a lot about what kind of person they are.
Ok, now I am just making up "that moment"-moments.
Got some examples? I imagine you can gauge how risk averse someone is by watching them climb.
Yeah, depending on how safe they climb, you can gauge their risk averseness. If they are consistently scared about some moves, you can gauge their confidence (which can obviously change over time which might be the best part about climbing). If they consistently pick routes that are too easy or too hard, you can gauge how well they can estimate their own skills.
If they don't care about standard security procedures, they are probably an arrogant person that thinks they know it better ("I don't make mistakes, I don't need to check") and are willing to put their ego before their life (and maybe even the life of others).
If they fail a route, you can gauge how they deal with failures (Easily frustrated? Analysing? Optimistic?). If they succeed at a route, you can gauge how they deal with success (Humble? Arrogant? Outgoing?).
But I think climbing is not special regarding this. This is probably possible in any sport where you're doing dangerous stuff.
Just learned we can downzap now at SN. Cool.
Traditionally people hate Mondays when they have the work.
Will this apply when they’re a UBI?
How can BTC increase happiness?
find out what you enjoy doing, and that enables you to stack sats at the same time.

Morning folks. Not much happening here on the prairie today. I'll be just monitoring the herd.

Day 46 keeping the 🤠 hat https://media.tenor.com/5T2l7usovTAAAAAM/pointing-my-hat-lloyed-pierce.gif
Hang on tight…
Eyes cast downward, the fog of self-doubt lingers. Striving for the light
Thank you for everyone’s kind words yesterday.
Damn you're productive! I don't want to heap more work on you, but. . a collection of your haikus would be a nice addition to a certain territory.
Which certain territory? (Seriously, there are a few I can imagine it fitting, I've missed earlier conversatins.)
I meant mine- Books and articles. I'm doing some shameless shilling :) You're right, though. It would be appropriate for a number of territories.
I thought we wanted to encourage people to come! lol
Happy to oblige. Perhaps my share could be donated somewhere as before with my weekly round up?
I don't know. Maybe save donations for additions and updates? For your permanent collection it should be yours to earn over time. That's what I'm trying to do. Keep work visible over the long term. I don't know if it's going to work.
I appreciate that. There are some really good creatives on here who may find their work getting lost among all the other posts. So that is a valuable service you are offering.
We'll see. I hope it works.

I'm marketing for my territory. Is there a "Natalia's Turkish Recipes" book in your future?
I hope! hahha
I'm really admired by those Turkish mums who can make virtually everything in the kitchen, but it also dies down slowly in the new generations, so I need to stack these skills before it "go extinct". 👀
yum 👀
you can do it too, super simple:) 👀
