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!

Thinking about streaming me playing Piano with no face shown and not much interaction with the chat, just me playing and and them listening.

But then I need a camera setup that looks down at my fingers and hook it up to zap.stream or something 🤔👀

Sounds like an interesting problem to solve though!

Is stacker news friendly to all types or is it off-putting to non techy non Bitcoin people?

reply

My experience is that it's a pretty friendly place (I post a lot of weird shit), but there certainly is a cultural slant towards bitcoin which just means you get a little more interaction when you post about stuff broadly in the bitcoin sphere.

Everyone is welcome

thank you. :)
yes indeed. I know some people that are on many different networks at the same time and it seems as if that would be their full time job, all the time glued to their phones, and it is sad to see, in my opinion.

Over the weekend my son and I did some 3d printing together. If any of you have printers, what are some things you've created?

reply

curious - why not actually MAKE the things instead of printing them?

but then I don't know what you are printing...

reply

Its a headphone holder that mounts under your desk and slides out of the way when not in use. Your question confuses me. What about taking plans, tweaking them. Setting up the tools. Buying materials and then running the machine. Seeing issues. Making further modifications... what about that isn't making?

I'm guessing you have never used a 3d printer. It isn't like a paper printer. Its a tool that requires a significant amount of work to set up and there is a lot of trial an error. Despite the hype, its not an easy button for manufacturing. Actually, the hype around 3d printing from years ago reminds me of the hype today about AI.

reply

nice try fed

reply

Here's the even funnier thing to me about people in the privacy movement and 3d printing. And I mean people that have never done it. From my perspective, learning to grow your own food is far more dangerous to the state, more of threat than 3d printers. When you know how to feed yourself and your community. When you build a strong community with food security... well why do you need the state. But I never hear people being coy about gardening lol. The vast majority of 3d printing people are making crap. Making stupid toys not useful tools. Especially in places like the US. But I get it. Its fun to play into the fearmongering the state and media pump out about how dangerous we all are. Those extremists!

Last call for 1750 sat bounty in my interactive serial story. Here's part 5 where the bounties are, but here's part 1 so you can start at the beginning if you're not already caught up.

It's a scifi story that brings together tech, engineering, economics, and TBD/you'll see.

One bounty is for anyone who can guess the riddle in the story. The other bounty is for the best idea of what an acronym in the story should stand for.

I'll be posting the next part in the series tomorrow morning, so bring those guesses and ideas!

Does the free market erode moral character ?

Don't get me wrong, I'm pro-free market, but I'd like to hear from stackers on this topic. Are you in favor of a completely free market, or should some sectors be more protected than others ? What are the limits of morality in free markets ?

Good morning stackers.

Day 50 of 100 push ups till $100k completed.

Saw this funny sign when visiting Redwood National and State Parks yesterday. Quite a few big trees there indeed!

Also, this is the "big tree". You can zoom in to see the people at the bottom for size comparison.

Sequoia ?

reply

I think so. They call it redwood, but I think it's just another name for sequoia.

Sequoioideae, commonly referred to as Redwoods, is a subfamily of coniferous trees within the family Cupressaceae, that range in the northern hemisphere.

I'm about to tear into an omelet. Even though I slept late I'm the only one awake for breakfast.

I can't believe I slept this late. Maybe the high seas cures insomnia.

Sailing is like being in a cradle. We slept like babies.

Yep. It helps knowing that spotty internet will prevent any serious work from getting accomplished.

reply

Dune, then Red Dragon, then The Talisman. I haven't read those specific Mailer, Vidal, and Lessing books, but they always tend to be worth reading.

reply

TBH, I haven't read any of them. These are my brother's books who has just graduated and specialized in post colonial litrature. I also did M.A. in Eng. Lit. but I always remained side by side with antiques of literature.

reply

NONE of those.
You better start reading more about Bitcoin because you lack of knowledge on that part.

Bitcoin - what a smart name.

It does offer incredible hope and a chance for creative / artistic endeavours to be rewarded (or at least financed) relative to the time and talent invested.

reply

Bitcoin offers safety and peace of mind, all people need is to eat and sleep well, and got all the time to focus on learning and creating!
