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!

Does the wind blow bad tippers' hats off at the same time every day? Midnight UTC?

reply

Yes

I like the GitHub-style link replacement in posts and comments. Nice work, team!

Alpha resides where uncertainty lies. If you can plan your windfall, you won't be alone when it lands.

I should know this but are there any character limits to posts?

@ekzyis @k00b

I am already 10,000 words in on @siggy47's creative writing project and my character hasn't even bought bitcoin yet. Just kidding about the 10,000 words but not about the character limit question.

Yesterday's comment

Day 1 of living on My Bitcoin Standard ⚡🛒👀

Mostly so I constrain myself with eating outside since most places don't accept bitcoin[1] ...

Also, bills that get paid from my bank account will obviously still get paid with fiat. That's why I call this my bitcoin standard. I pick the rules!

And just starting with paying for groceries in bitcoin using https://bitrefill.com/ will probably be fun enough for now. Don't need to make the start more complicated than it has to be :)

I also won't necessarily mention this streak everyday in the saloon. It can get kind of annoying after a while, takes the fun out of things and misses the point. I might make irregular dedicated posts about my experience in ~bitcoin though :)

Let's see how long this streak lasts!

  1. And constraints can make people very creative

We should be setup with BitWage soon. Just KYC'd with them so you all should probably be able to get paid in sats in the next few weeks.

and paying in cash

I hate dealing with change so much, I have to admit that I always tried to pay with plastic first. But now I will mostly pay with gift cards. :)

It's also always funny to see how much work dealing with cash is for the stores. For example, the bigger stores all have counterfeit bill detectors for each cashier now. They check every bill.

Mornin Freaks,

Many people wait for things to happen or for someone else to solve problems for them, and that's what creates miseries in the first place - you should take the matter into your own hands, it's called self-responsibility, and that is what can ultimately set you free.

Good day Cowboys!

Learn Spelling with Sensei

Stayed up to 5.30pm when I could have left at 5pm partly to make this spelling poster for my students. Sensei’s the greatest! Haha

Was that lil guy disappointed earlier?

...'cos he definitely looks like a very thrilled dude now!

reply

I had a group contact me for some private training. And as always, when I respond with payment methods, I always say I accept Bitcoin either on-chain or via Lightning. I have never had anyone pay me with crypto, but one day someone is going to surprise me. Never hurts to ask.

reply

Surprise!

reply

Hump day! (Not that kind of hump you filthy animals)

reply

All humps are good no?

reply

That reallllllyyy depends

reply

That phrase always reminds me of Home Alone. Filthy Animals, that is. None of us could stop smirking when the teacher used the expression hump day.

reply

I keep meaning to watch Angels With Dirty Faces…. I might be upset if it doesn’t actually have the ‘and a Happy New Year’ line in it. I still smirk now when hump day is mentioned!

All this talk about beans and cowboy hats 🤠👖🫘 is reminding me of this 🤣

"I'd say you've had enough beans" 🤣🤣🤣

reply

Aw nutz, that was what I was lining up for tomorrow.

But beans tend to repeat on you...

reply

But on what have the beans been spilled?

reply

The day!

reply

Don’t the beans indicate you have something previously unknown to share?

As in; ‘Did you hear the gossip?’ ‘What gossip? Go on spill the beans…’ ‘That guy Carlos is really a 50-year old woman called Carolino?’ ‘No waaaaayyy!’

reply

Spilling the beans?

Or spilling the tea in Gen Z slang?

reply

Yeah, I learned this the other day thanks to you.

Maybe you come on in here tomorrow and do that.

reply

what's up with the beans?

reply

Every day, every day I read it and them beans have just sat there. I couldn't take it anymore!

reply
them beans have just sat there

lol, just realized that "sat" is the past tense of "sit". Now I am imagining this conversation:

One sat, two sats, three sats, ...
Are you counting satoshis?
No, I am counting people who were sitting
reply

Got it! Good job. Now pick them back up again!

reply

I'll just wait for Siggy and the guys from his Dog&Cats territory to appear.

It'll be gone in no time

  • plus I can fuss them up while they munch.
reply

hahha, damn I was cooking the beans last night - I would be so mad if someone spill the beans and I need to clean it:) 🤣🤣🤣

reply

Turkish style beans?

If so, another recipe please!

reply

tamam! on the way, Turks love to eat beans!

Someone spilled the beans.

Howdy partner 🤠

Guess what day it is….

Make the most of it.

reply

It's good ol' Hump Day according to @carlosfandango.

̶C̶̶a̶̶r̶̶l̶̶o̶̶s̶' Carlino's partner's favorite day must be Wednesday.

Nice edit lol

It’s not…. But at least it doesn’t take long lol

"cook more, then put some of them into the fridge" This is the way. But the only real way to enjoy cooking... is to don't have any issues with money :), so you have time to search the best ingredients, spend time preparing and pre cooking some of it.

reply
so you have time to search the best ingredients, spend time preparing and pre cooking some of it.

I have time for all of these, but it's a bit ( physically) tiring, and the hidden cost is there are so many things to learn and explore.

reply

Uff... if it's physical, I will said smart buys of home appliances? It does not use more than 4 kitchen utensils for cooking, but short and chopping can be simplified with their help.

reply

Oh yeah, I think the best thing I ever bought was my rice cooker. Just set, forget and boom, perfect rice! And it's very easy to clean.
