You say this and i instantly think of magic the gathering lol
Odd. Bitwise and Vaneck already donate to Devs. Hard to imagine Saylor could crush Blackrock or Fidelity. Big fan of Odell but would like more info on this because it doesn't make sense.
fantastic post. Resonated with me.
Tl; Dr - too much Larping, not enough Bitcoining.
Hodl < Hodl, spend and replace more.
Centralised on ramps suck.
I shill WoS all the time for my videos and content. I use the excuse that for noobies it’s a great in ramp.
im gonna make an active effort to shill Phoenix.
Ps I love that carrefour translates to Walmart in your mind 😃
Hey @k00b and @ekzyis could we have a thing in notifications where it tells you not only how many sats you stacked that day, but also how many you spent? It could report both numbers in the same notification. I know you can compute it manually from your wallet, but that's a PITA, and seeing it laid out that way would be really interesting.
when it comes to their character, effort and upholding their responsibilities (no matter how big or small) we are strict with them.
I wouldn't have articulated this but I think it's right. Everything else is something you can and should negotiate with a changing world.
I just finished editing a tutorial video about https://lightsats.com/; if you don't know it yet, go and check it out, its worth it.
My video will be published in 3 hrs (aprox)
But https://lightsats.com/ is platform where the Bitcoiners can give SATS or orange pill friends or any one on the streets and if this person is not interested in Bitcoin, you will recovery the SATS you gave.
Cheers
Very US-centric view, in my opinion.
US inflation has been delegated and pushed down the throats of all the other nations that don't have much choice but to use Dollars as reserve currency.
Yes, the can has been pushed down the road and out of the US.
But yeah, I agree that doomism is a naive worldview. The rich and smart are resilient enough to find a new local equilibrium until the next crisis destabilizes things again... the poor are suffering just a little bit more each time. The middle class gets eroded at every crisis.
I think SN is the only internet place I want to be. I haven't used twitter in months. And I have to be very stern with myself and set harsh limits with instagram. not everyone's struggle, but that's mine. anyway, I would so much rather come here daily to get news, sure, but also read thoughtful opinions on, as you were pointing out, a wide variety of anything. I much prefer putting out my work here where I know it will get read, I know it will reach people, and as a huge bonus, I'll potentially get rewarded in sats. This has become a motivator, and not just for me, I see it happening within the "community" or neighborhood of SN.
I think when a community flourishes, it doesn't spend too much time taking the temperature of the community. I guess I'm saying, a strength inside a community is self interest. that's why the gamification of SN is a success.
You're gonna have to redo this poll when Ark actually has some code. You know its still pretty new and people are still trying to wrap their heads around exactly what it is and what it does and what it isn't and what the trade offs are going to be.
What are some of the most relevant upcoming features?
It might be time to raise posting costs ... people are posting absolute repetitive garbage.
You could install it alongside Bitcoin Core. Once it has synced you can pass user/password and it will use your bitcoind instead of remote blocks. Read the README, it's all there:
add-apt-repository ppa:lightningnetwork/ppa
apt update
apt install lightningd
mkdir -p ~/.lightning/plugins
echo 'disable-plugin=bcli' >> .lightning/config
cd ~/.lightning/plugins
wget https://github.com/nbd-wtf/trustedcoin/releases/download/v0.6.1/trustedcoin-v0.6.1-linux-amd64.tar.gz
tar -xvf trustedcoin-v0.6.1-linux-amd64.tar.gz
cd
lightningdHard to say. There are so many!
One powerful example was Hong Kongers in exile using Bitcoin to support human rights advocacy inside the city from abroad.
Another is a Burmese activist who escaped from his country using BTC as a lifeline.
Yet another is a Russian independent media outlet that is using Bitcoin to help sustain its operations after it was forced to leave Russia.
You should use a submarine swap service like https://boltz.exchange to exchange your KYC on chain bitcoin to LN bitcoin. Then you can do whatever you want with your LN btc.
There is also https://fixedfloat.com/ which is centralized, but it's a good alternative
Hopefully next week. Sorry, I know it's a shitshow right now. We weren't expecting this much demand.
Ditto here.
TFW the internet names something, you've been doing naturally, and was counter-culture in a small company.
Feels like the bulk of devs I have worked with struggle with concepts like rebasing, targeting a specific branch, and handling conflicts.
For a pretty long split-second, I thought that OP wanted to know if anyone of us Plebs has actually managed to create a family, with a wife, kids and that sorta bagage - and I don't think I'm the only one!
Honestly? Great idea. I host a lot of my own infra and I often lose sleep over it. "x probably isn't secure enough, y doesnt have a good enough backup, if z goes down when I'm not home, I can't get it back up"
Hey @benwehrman. FYI. I looped you into a nostr conversation with Dr. Jeff Ross regarding him potentially coming on SN for an AMA mid-Sept or later.
I just dropped off an un-godly amount of fiat at the post office to buy kyc-free btc so I can beef up my lightning node liquidity. You know... "cleaning house".
