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!

I lost my horse. I demand a recount.

reply

I support you for the demand. I think horse has something to do with the boosts.

reply

I have decided to go Wild West. Cowboy Credits is my preferred “money”. Please respect my decision.

reply

So last night I got a horse, along with the notification saying I'd found one.

Before I went to bed, I re-attached my receive wallet and raised my desired balance above 0 to hold some rewards for the AM.

Woke up to another notification saying I'd found a horse, but with the horse gone.

Besides the second notification being wrong, is the rest working as intended?

This happened to me this morning with my gun. So this is some kind of bug.

I created an issue for it: https://github.com/stackernews/stacker.news/issues/1486

reply

Ah ha!

And the steed has returned!

Just the notifications part is the bug, right?

reply

I’m not sure yet. Whatever it is it’s affecting all of us at least.

reply

hmmm the notification sounds like a bug.

Everything else seems fine, yeah.

reply

Okay cool, thanks!

I re-attached it because my settings weren't saving while trying to update my desired balance. Sometimes it doesn't save, sometimes it does, and sometimes it timeouts out on me.

Brave on Windows.

reply

Which wallets are you attaching?

reply

Coin.os LN address for receiving, and Coin.os NWC for sending

reply

Thanks. Coinos was having trouble yesterday so that might explain the timeout.

In any case, we still have a lot of work to do. :)

reply

No worries, you guys are killing it with the updates.

reply

The consequences of being a huge asshole are hard to measure. Most people won't argue with huge assholes, reserving that kindness for people worth the effort. Without evidence of people arguing with them, they probably conclude everyone is as lonely as they are.

reply

Well said.

Are @siggy47 and I the only total cowboys?

reply

Am i the only actual cowboy that lives in the actual old west?

reply

Likely. The rest of us are Larping.

reply

How did you get all that sick gear??

reply

The horse is for receiving zaps to an attached external wallet. The gun is for sending zaps from an attached external wallet.

reply

I am looking forward to getting my setup on point.

That's super cool.

reply

I'm the ugly I guess.

reply

I'm the ugly. Everyone wants to be the ugly. You are the only real cowboy here. Out in the desert on a horse with no name.

reply

I just can't handle being good or bad. Maybe there can be more than one ugly.

reply

It's true my horse has no name. Shhh. I don't have a horse yet. Not on SN or in RL as they say.

reply

I guess in reality a horse wouldn't be useful or easy to care for in a desert?

1966. Was it the year when Siggy was born? ;)
reply

???? That was the year I graduated law school

reply

I've no words. I'm dumb....

I thought it was the summer of 69. You had a band and tried real hard but you quit (to practice law) and Jody got married. Should have known you'd never get far.

My horse ran off during the night?

That's too bad. Horses are fickle. They need hay and water and zaps. I am sure he will return.

Nosireebob. I fell for this trick yesterday. He is way too prolific a commenter. haha Also, he posts too much stuff that I want to zap and I can't currently zap from my phone, which is just painful.

Today’s society is no longer Foucault’s disciplinary world of hospitals, madhouses, prisons, barracks, and factories. It has long been replaced by another regime, namely a society of fitness studios, office towers, banks, airports, shopping malls, and genetic laboratories. Twenty-first-century society is no longer a disciplinary society, but rather an achievement society. Also, its inhabitants are no longer “obedience-subjects” but “achievement-subjects.” They are entrepreneurs of themselves.

reply

Is it normal to receive this notification but not say what it was about?

cc/ @k00b @ek

reply

That's just telling you that a zap you received went straight to your attached wallet.

The UI/UX here needs work. I ended up turning those notifications off which made me forget about it.

reply

Speaking of notifications, is there any way to get notified about where referrals are coming from? I (rarely, like once a week) get a notice that I've stacked a handful of referral sats. Since I don't self-promote/link in general, I'm assuming these are from other people sharing a post or comment somewhere, but I've got no idea which posts are generating the referrals.

reply

Not yet. But we should be able to surface it. Good suggestion.

reply

As far as I can tell, that zap was for this post. But I only received notification of what it was after receiving the last zap on the post. After receiving the zap (14), on the site there was no change in the value staked in the post. It was at 30 sats and only increased after receiving another zap (30). 30->30->94

reply

Zaps for the same item are aggregated into one notification and are given the sort order of the latest zap on the item.

reply

I had already understood this but in this case several minutes passed between zap 14 and 30 and the notification of which post was zapped only appeared after the last zap (30). Between the two zaps the staked value of the post didn't change.

reply

You can't determined if/when the stacked value of the post changed by looking at your notifications, so I'm not sure how you come to the conclusion that it didn't.

reply

I didn't check this in notifications. After receiving the notification (14) I went to the main interface and nothing had changed.

The sequence was: [30 sats] Charted: Organization Megadonors To The 2024 U.S. Election notification 14 [30 sats] Charted: Organization Megadonors To The 2024 U.S. Election several minutes passed notification 30 [94 sats] Charted: Organization Megadonors To The 2024 U.S. Election

reply

If you went to the main page via the back button, it wouldn't have changed.

Ever since I took snap and X off my phone I find myself on SN a whole lot more. Which I draw two conclusions:

  1. Phone addiction is real
  2. Using SN and nostr to appease my doom scrolling.

But with that said I’m always thinking of things I want to add and post to SN. But unfortunately I have a job and other obligations that don’t allow me to stay on SN and write all day long.

94% OF BITCOIN HOLDERS ARE IN PROFIT

Bitcoin ripped past $65K, and now 94% of the crew—over 50.67 million wallets—are in the green.

But check it: around 3.37 million peeps bought in at an average of $68,139 and might be feeling a bit of FOMO.

With $145 million in shorts getting wrecked lately, it’s clear traders are hunting for those quick flips.

Plus, the RSI’s chilling at 64, so we’re definitely in overbought territory.

Citizen’s ArrestCitizen’s Arrest

A citizen's arrest is an arrest made by a private citizen. Because the word citizen now has other connotation today, the word sovereign arrest would be better suited.

Sovereign arrest is a person who is not acting as a sworn law-enforcement official but is acting within common law.

In common law jurisdictions, the practice dates back to medieval England and the English common law, in which sheriffs encouraged ordinary people to help apprehend law breakers.

Today a living breathing man or woman can arrest another person, if they are a witness to a crime and have first-hand knowledge, however if you’re going to do this then be ready to back up your claim with an affidavit, or a declaration of truth within a court of law.

Because the average person has not already sworn an oath to uphold the law the correct procedure would be as follows.

  1. Tell the person you are placing them under arrest.
  2. Give them notice of the crime they have committed.
  3. Give them the name of the victim.
  4. Notify them that you will swear an oath to this using an affidavit.

Note: If you arrest someone in this way you are now responsible for the claim.

i'm portuguese and i've never heard such a thing. I think some Portuguese people would love it if it were possible to do that here! Ahahahha

reply
i'm portuguese

Never put yourself in a "nationalist" cage.... A sovereign individual is not part of any group or national social naming.

When you say "I am portuguese or chinese" you put yourself straight under a State jurisdiction, aka slave.

Just say "I am myself, my own country (as regional place not as state), wandering around".

reply

I'm Portuguese because I was born in Portugal, you've misunderstood. I am a citizen of the world!

reply

one-world citizenship is almost here. depending on who wins the control over the citizens, punishments will vary from decapitation to eternal brainwashing using EMF-emitting helmets.

once everyone uses state-controlled cryptocurrencies, the marketing of this idea will take off quickly.

Officially 1 year of 100+ pushups per day 🤠 I started on October 15 2023, my initial goal was to do it for 7 days as a small challenge to myself. To my surprise, it wasn't that difficult to pull off, so I just kept going :) In the meantime, I've travelled from Darwin (Northern Territory, Australia) to Perth (Western Australia) to Byron Bay (New South Wales, Australian east coast) to Thailand, back to Byron, then Bali, Estonia and more recently to New Zealand. Didn't miss a day (sure, a couple of times I did the pushups well after midnight, but it still counts in my book). Where there's a will, there's a way 🤠
