  • Today, it will be China who have more Gold medals matches slotted in. I think China will move up to the table most probably.

Hello everyone, what's up my stacker friends? Sorry, but I give up in spend 1 hour daily to learn English in last week. Don't worry for consalation I decided to rest and back. In this time (he parsists) I decided to change content in social media which consumes on tiktok and youtube from content in Polish language to English languge. Btw. I spend more time to talk in English languge. It's easiest form learn this languge but they allow me make progress if I lost motivation. Second time I say sorry.

When people start asking on SN, nostr and other social media platoforms about "what is the "best" lightning wallet to use, because X app shut down or quit or whatever..." it really shows how early we are.

People have no fucking idea what to use, when and how... They are usually stuck with just an app "recommended" by some influencer and they never explore more.
FOREVER CLUELESS.

reply

the best lightning wallet is the one that works for the payment i need to make 😅.

it may not be the way i want, for the fee i want, or with the wallet i want, and sometimes not even from my own wallet 😜.

nonetheless, so far i have completed the LN payment almost 100% of the time, even after a few failures.

reply

No one solved my Easter egg hunt but @0xbitcoiner gave it a good try.

In today's This Day on SN post, a post from @nout from 2021 was featured. It talked about https://lightningbutton.com/

I had never heard of this project, so I clicked the link and then proceeded to click the CLICK ME button. I was redirected to a scammy "earn crypto" site. Then I discovered the click me redirect button could be purchased for sats and all it cost to displace the scammy site was 7910 sats, so I reclaimed the lightning button from the jaws of scam crypto and redirected it to Stacker News, where it belongs.

I don't know if anyone outside of the stackers will ever find the lightning button again but if they do they will find us. Thanks for everything you do to make stacker news a great community @k00b, @ek, contributors and all stackers.

Easter egg hunt for 1k sats still open. #639879

reply

my last guess: microstrategy 300%

reply

You started off hot but now you are so cold you are in Siberia. You are the only one playing, so let me give you a clue. This Day on SN, I commented about easter eggs and then replied to my own comment with "the hardest button to button" song. You correctly identified it was a referenced to nout's post from 2021 regarding the Lightning button but you stopped there. You simply did not go far enough.

reply

I still heard White Stripes song and searched for 'eggs' at nout's post but didn't read everything. Ahahah... ads on SN? Some anon zap 1000 :) wtf

reply

Yes, I think the other anon is unhappy I am impersonating him. Since they saved me 1k sats and paid you the prize. If you go into nout's post and click the link to the lightning button and then click the button it will transport you through space and time right back where you started to SN. That is the easter egg.

I am 99% certain I zapped @Natalia's new post yesterday #638672, but today I did not see the lightning bolt as colored, so I zapped it again.

Checking my wallet history, I also don't see any zapped activity for that post.

My hunch is, since I use undoable zaps, I closed the SN PWA before the zap was finalized. Be careful out there stackers, this could bite you!

reply

I think if the zaps failed on PWA, the retry also would occur. But the way "undoable zaps" are implemented, the zaps sit on your client for 5 seconds before actually being sent to the server, so if you close the app/webpage before that 5 seconds is up, it's like it never happened.

reply

deleted by author

reply
hmmmm, but isn't it default-zapped if you don't click the undo? So closing it before the 5s is like you didn't and can't click the undo.

@ek can confirm, but I believe that is the case

reply

That's how it works. It's happened to me too. If you close the window before 5 seconds the zap doesn't go through.

@WeAreAllSatoshi’s description here is correct:

But the way "undoable zaps" are implemented, the zaps sit on your client for 5 seconds before actually being sent to the server, so if you close the app/webpage before that 5 seconds is up, it's like it never happened.

but this is wrong (as I read it):

hmmmm, but isn't it default-zapped if you don't click the undo? So closing it before the 5s is like you didn't and can't click the undo.

If the zap is pulsing, you need to let it finish else it won’t arrive on the server. So if you close the window before it’s finished, the zap never happened (just like @WeAreAllSatoshi described).

Calling it „undo“ is the confusing part, it’s technically more a delay.

reply

Yep, that's exactly what I thought. At first, I kept thinking it had bugged out a few times, but it hadn't. Then I figured it out. 'Delay' is the word.

RefusalRefusal

When someone offers you a service or product, do not say you refuse.

Saying you refuse indicates that you had a prior obligation to accept the service or product being offered, and you have now defaulted on your “prior obligation”.

For example: do not refuse a test, just decline the test. If you refuse, the one making the offer will continue as if you have now defaulted on a prior “obligated contract”.

The correct response would be to “decline the offer”, as this shows this is the first time the offer has been made, and therefore there cannot be any prior obligation within a contract to accept.

If they persist, then they are without honour and you can make a counter claim against them.
