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'm looking to educate some friends about what a true bitcoin L2 would entail. I remember seeing some pretty good write ups here on how currently only lightning satisfies that definition, but can't find it. Any one with a link?
Those friends think Stacks, Cardano, and other affinity scams would be valid contenders.

Curious Problems #002 - DOLLARS AND CENTS

A man entered a store and spent one-half of the money that was in his pocket.
When he came out he found that he had just as many cents as he had dollars when he went in and half as many dollars as he had cents when he went in.
How much money did he have on him when he entered?

Looks like Strike just released Bitcoin bill pay, this month they also added free auto withdraws to self custody.
I'm downloading strike again.
Needed a Bitcoin bill pay service, easier to live on a Bitcoin standard in America now.
reply
I donโ€™t know if theyโ€™ve released Bill Pay for GA yet. I saw Jack tease it in Nostr via a screen capture video today, however. Maybe itโ€™s coming soon?
Bitcoin auto-withdrawals is live but keep in mind they donโ€™t pause auto-withdrawals when all your addresses have been used up โ€” they will use the last address used to continue withdrawals which goes against best practices of using an address once. Iโ€™ve pinged them countless times encouraging them to add an option to pause auto-withdrawals when all addresses are used up but they havenโ€™t been receptive at all. Weird.

Interesting, you even paid the same amount so this idea wouldn't fix these duplicate comments. Any hints what you did that would help us reproduce? Was it on a bad internet connection?
edit: Oh, I see, it's a reply in a post where you are the OP. You don't pay spam fees in your own posts. That's why you only had to pay 1 sat for both comments even though they were replies to the same comment within 10 minutes.

Pretty Wild Day,
Created an AI podcast of one of my blog posts (Didnt see it on the RSS, but plan on dropping the fountain link when possible) will probably create a podcast per article.
Got a zap.stream setup for my 50 song beat tape.
Dropped another article on SN and Nostr.
Fiat mined and conversed with the freaks.
Walked the dog, drank coffee, grocery shopped on Uber eats
Washed the dishes, folded the laundry, made lunch for the wife
Next Up
Cranking out another couple of hours of fiat mining.
At night, I'll probably code a bit and work on another article it'll be the plebdev hustle, to keep in line with the theme.
The next coding push I'm making with the app, is to have the PWA working with amber login and to improve some aspects of the UI. Once that's done I'll release the project for alpha testing.
Outside of the coding, I'll probably create short music videos using something like animal sunrise and the album artwork. Then I'll transition back to the shop and upload all of the album artwork and re-design the merch, then I'll offer the consultation service on shopstr and satshoot......something like that.
Feels good to listen to my beats as I fiat mine. Was listening to Animal Bus while grocery shopping a few days ago, and couldn't help but smile a bit.
Bullish on whatever it is I'm doing. Thanks, Hustle

Did you post a link that contains a path that starts with naddr? Could be that our nostr link parsing converts it into this embed and this embed does not contain the link to the actual stream anymore, only to the announcement event.
edit: oh, I had to open the link in zap.stream, then it worked. I hear music!
reply
And stream went dead for a moment, had to top up the zap.stream balance. 10 sats a minute isnt too bad.

No music playing, or not checking it out?

a bitcoin poem

Created: July 7, 2022 4:39 PM
information is changing
information is change
data overtakes senses
computation eats meaning,
itโ€™s crunching the numbers.
before you a wave
of numbers and dots
all your words
replaced with -+
your precious syllables
represented by 01100
and what happens to you?
โ€” โ€” โ€” . . . analyzing . . .
do you insist that you are not a number?
yes. insisting is diminishing you
from the datawaves.
you keep insisting. something will listen,
something will turn your insistence
into a valuable string, size it into a block
crunch the energy of the earth into a bit
for you, for what you insist should be,
call it datawave creation - genesis for now.
how should you know when you are heard?
how do I know things will change?
information is loose change

Try to get information of what is going on in your pc. Check if you have htop/top commands to figure out what process are running and if you have enough process power and ram.
Look in logs of each service you have problems and try to identify any issue there.
reply
its mempool
reply
Okay but isnโ€™t it needed to run LND and other apps?
reply
Electrum is required.
A local mempool.space instance is useful for looking up transactions privately, but it is not required to make transactions.
reply
Okay I will look to uninstall to see if that improves performance
