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!

it's only day one, and i'm already a little embarrassed how invested i am in the march madness rewards game...

reply

Messed around with some of the DB config after MSM queries slowed everything down. Turns out we are way under tuned. Something I'll have to spend more time on soon.

reply

I don't really understand anything you said, but I appreciate your work and dedication!

reply

Glad this madness started in March, February was extremely busy, finally getting a break from the fiat mine work, been pretty absent on SN.

Just had a DUH moment typing that lol of course it's March Madness! and a 'bracket' of 64 hahaa!

From "No interest, muted you long ago" to " I'm literally an alien" and everywhere (or as much as possible) between.

reply

@k00b I heard you on SNL that you start watching The Mandalorian. Yes, is a great show. But if you want to see me "in action"... watch the other SW series - Obi Wan Kenobi. The fight scenes with Darth Vader are impressive. Here you can see it online.

reply

Thanks Darth. If anyone knows the good SW stuff it’s got to be you

Everyone come tell their daily existential anecdotes

reply

visiting the rewards page every hour to cheer on stackers as they rise and fall in the rankings, it’s almost as addicting as cheering on my bracket during march madness

reply

@orthwyrm is my next stacker i’m cheering for. currently #62, but is known for extreme consistency. i’ll be looking for them to make up ground on the competition as million say madness progresses.

reply

@bumi is making his debut on the leaderboard in position #41, and @grayruby and @thebitcoinbugle have both cracked the top 10.

@Undisciplined is showing his discipline today by moving up into the #3 spot.

absolute chaos on day one of million sat madness!

reply

Rankings are based on estimated rewards only not how much you stacked correct?

And estimated rewards are based on the same criteria as before, engagement, zapping top content early, having top posts and comments?

reply

correct, same measures as before (zapping great posts and comments and creating great posts and comments)

reply

I guess trending on Stacker is consolation for coming to the realization that Canada is going to beat the US to $100k

reply

we’re number one! 🇨🇦

reply

I considered modifying my daily push ups to reflect the Can dollar price needed to match 100k USD but for consistency sakes kept going with USD.

reply

Damn hosers up in Canada. Trailer Park boys are stacking so hard. They must've found a new revenue stream.

reply

Canada had an etf before etfs were cool.

reply

I think for this experiment I will let others to win and show us that they can do PoW.

reply

and for your sacrifice, i salute you 🫡

reply

I'm beating everyone, except four very generous cowards who won't show their faces.

reply

Ek,kr,Siggy, Natália,k00b ?

reply

😂

reply

now that @thebitcoinbugle is making their way up the rankings, i’m cheering for @car to work his way up from #62 to the top 50

reply

Car is one of the good ones

reply

I think it would be interesting to show more than 64. What are your thoughts on that?

reply

good idea

reply

cheering on @thebitcoinbugle right now, big jump from #63 to #50 in the last hour

reply

We will win.

reply

another big jump to #16 👀

reply

I don't know how we will beat @DarthCoin but we will try

reply

sir, you are already 10 positions on top of me. I am kinda lazy, but is also just 1st day... just looking what to say and zap.

Howdy!

34 days of 100 push ups a day until $100k down. Undetermined to go. 30 days of 100 squats a day until $100k down. Undetermined to go.

reply

I thought yesterday was going to be my first success with 36-28-36, but then I fell asleep at like 7:30 and didn't wake up until midnight.

reply

Just received a notice saying that their have been reports of break ins and suspicious looking individuals with weapons lurking around my neighborhood. Apparently people have been breaking into the laundry rooms to sleep, and storage rooms to steal. TheWildHustle will probably need to make TheWildEscape assuming clown world continues cracking jokes.

reply

Get outta there asap.

reply

You need to be armed and awake!! Stay safe

reply

Guh, does this happen on every deploy? https://m.stacker.news/18283

reply

I had never seen before The system was overloaded with accesses, which caused this to happen. MSM BOOM !

https://a.stacker.news/falling.gif https://m.stacker.news/18285

reply

Presumably just a blip during deployment of a new app container, but I don't think I've ever seen it happen live.

reply

I'm not sure what would've caused it this round, but I have seen it happen before.

It usually only happens when a migration isn't backwards compatible but afaik there shouldn't be one in this case.

reply

Gosh darn cloud provider! :D

reply

Ah ! OK 😎👍

Today I went to a public hospital and saw a sign that said: "in this hospital we support breastfeeding, pacifiers and bottles are prohibited." It is excellent that they support breastfeeding and educate future mothers about its benefits and debunk myths about it, but I found it curious and violent that they prohibit the use of bottles within their facilities, although it is true that breastfeeding is the option main way to feed a baby, but it does not make it the only one, there is very good formula milk for babies, in addition to the fact that a mother is the one who should have the power to decide whether to breastfeed or not, whether for work or simply because he doesn't feel comfortable.

I haven't deployed the changes yet.

reply

why does it feel more like a "punishment" haha - seeing the cake and can't eating it yet? 😂

okay, I choose not to see it.

reply

Probably more work than it's worth to deploy them early and have them conditionally active based on current time, yea?

When starting to use a new form of currency or trade the users must decide what units or items have equal value. How many satoshis do you think is fair to help settle this transaction?

reply

Howdy partner!! Friday is here and the weekend is about to begin, one last push to end the week strong, check if our weekly strategies work and if we felt we got things done our way, it's a beautiful day indeed and this weekend we will use it to recharge relax and enjoy our loved ones. Remember that you matter and you're important my friend, may your day be fruitful, joyful and show this Friday what you're made of!! You've got this!! Thank you for being and I'm so proud of you. Be well and stay frosty!!

The future of e-commerce ⚡️

  1. a simple site built-in with sats
  2. a Nostr account to deliver goods or contact
  • No need to register any companies
  • No need to apply for bank accounts
  • No need to beg for licenses or certificates

What really matters is POW and web of trust, and of course your knowledge of Bitcoin.

reply

No worries, ~AGORA is coming!

✅ a simple site built-in with sats 🔄 a Nostr account to deliver goods or contact (task assigned to @SN) ✅ No need to register any companies ✅ No need to apply for bank accounts ✅ No need to beg for licenses or certificates

yes! what a great tool ( especially for getting things started ) and I was playing around with it, and shared some feedback to @supertestnet

reply
reply

I'm a lucky one coming into this world to explore and play - all of us are lucky come on, look up what are the chance of being born.

and the main problem needed to be solved is to figure out how to play longer - how to live long and do what I enjoy with the people I like, every day.

will watch the video later haha

reply

With BTC pumping as it is, I’m pleased to report that my sats have bought me a $25 food takeout voucher (as opposed to $20) from Bitrefill. Maybe I will order one salad from my eatery to eat more healthily lol

Snails (real) everywhere today courtesy of the rain. Where is ‘the’ snail?

reply

Can anyone remember the time before smartphones and we could do a search engine search on it?

Unless I was dreaming I used to send a text with a question, to a certain phone number, and a (usually) helpful answer would come back, again in text form.

I think this service went on for a few years and has been all but forgotten when smartphones quickly caught on.

Maybe I'm dumb (or dreamt it up) but can anyone remember this dumbphone service?

reply

@siggy47 did you come across this?

reply

No, I don't remember that. I'm probably not a good person to ask, because when cell phones came out I would forget to turn it on, and only used it to make a call. It took me a while to even text.

reply

Ah, and just look at us now!

reply

I know. I am addicted to my detriment.

reply

I don’t!

Okay now I deduce that we are either the same age or you are 12 years older than me. I have been wondering about your age since your Zodiac post haha

reply

Well, my grandfather was born in the nineteenth century. So take a flying guess...

reply

One of my grandparents was 1901

reply

Friday is not going well. Management is swamped with project assignments, and the worst part is that my boss sends the same assignment multiple times due to excessive fussiness.

Good thing I'm done with this project next week :)

reply

Is anyone watching this Bitcoin Atlantis thing? Madeira looks nice. I'm ready to pack my bags.

reply

I've been there a few years ago myself. It's definitely worth visiting and exploring the island. There are wonderful places and sights to see, and the nature is breathtaking. You'll need a good 2 to 3 weeks to see even half of it.

reply

I am seriously considering a visit.

reply

If you love nature, you won't be disappointed. And there are plenty of places where you can spend your satoshis.

reply

Not quite in the middle. LOL look at what you can do in the hills of Madeira. Madness!

I went on a wild ride when I was there. My adrenaline was pumping!

It feels like a roller coaster, but with less safety. 😂

what's dat?

Oh. It's a bitcoin conference in Madeira. It's a portuguese island out in the middle of the atlantic. It's live streamed on youtube. https://youtu.be/lRAM6bwS8mU

It's fake. Bitcoin is dead, it doesn't work, it was banned by the gov. Sell your bitcoin now.

reply

It looks like your account may have been compromised. :)

reply

just trying to manipulate weak minds :)

reply

try harder!

reply

That island is getting too popular. Someone might recognize Mac.

reply

A tsunami will come and wipe all bitcoiners at once.

reply

They have some high mountains there. The young ones might escape if they are in good shape.

reply

Let's see if I can endure this madness until the end of the month without getting any rewards. Last week I transferred almost all of my funds to L1.

reply

wow, indeed so mad - you don't keep some sats to pay and play around?

reply

I have them, but I'm not sure if they'll be enough until the end of the month. We'll see.

reply

you can still make content and earn the zaps.

reply

That's what I've been doing, but I usually spend everything I earn in a day. The rewards have been the profit... I'm confident that I won't go to zero... only time will tell.

Have you heard of eggshell flour? You can make it yourself!

your hair will thankyou for all the nutrition! and you don't do it with the shells together:p

reply

Actually, I think I might need one of those treatments myself. I haven't cut my hair in months and it's starting to look a bit scraggly. It's either that or I go for a haircut :)

do eggs first, if not working with you, then haircut 😂
