I kept using an MP3 player long after most adopted smartphones. The library has audiobooks on CD, many in MP3 CD format. It's still lurking in the background, and I still rip CDs instead of downloading music for most of my library because I like physical media.
The 90s are already popular again. I expect the aughts to have a nostalgic resurgence in the next decade. All I want is Microsoft to stop pretending Windows hasn't been going downhill since XP, and finally update XP64 for modern machines. Fantasy, I know...
One of my pine seeds germinated early. It's a Korean Pine. It sprouted half way through its warm stratification process. But it was suppose to go in the fridge for another 90 days before it would sprout.
Will be interesting to see when the other seeds sprout. #hivegarden
I have many times. Sometimes when it is full, it peeks through the mini blinds and beckons me to come out and look at it, so I do ! Sometimes it shows me fun crescents out my kitchen window.

It was now distributed to one user. You can distribute it to more comments under your post. But it had to be a submission for the contest and there was only one in the first three days.
I see, the commentrewarder project is amazing! The author having the chance to reward those who are there commenting and engaging is a win/win situation.
Indeed. Commentrewarder only counts the upvoted comment from the first three days after the post was created.
There were more comments, but only one submission for the contest within the first three days in the comments.
The contest itself is running for a long time, but I integrated commentrewarder just recently.
100% of the author rewards are distributed via commentrewarder.
So if your vote isn't large enough to be over dust it's more symbolic anyway and it represents showing people you read it and you care. Move it down to like 5% or something.
I leave it at 25%, so that I can always give 1 cent or a little more per vote. Remembering that it's always important to leave each snap with a minimum value of 2 cents

Good question. Not sure what their criteria is for "navigable". Here is a shot of what I think is one of the larger boats to use the harbor. Heading out for a whale watching excursion.

anyone watching this show? a bunch of dysfunctional people thrown in a mysterious town where everyone wants to keep secrets but also yell at each other for no reason... but still its very interesting #tvshow
did you see the latest episode? the show would be over in a single season if everyone just talked to each other. actually most series would be over in a single season if the characters talks to each other....
I was thinking of 'widow', as perhaps you were, playing with the similarity of sound between 'willow' and 'widow'. ... Been a few years since we interacted on the blockchain; good to 'see' you!

There is a new little kitten in our yard 🐈😍.
Actually, they are three kittens (our neighbor's), but I managed to capture with the camera only this one for now.
#cat #hivecats
cute little dude reminds me of mine I love that pattern on a cat
He's charming 👍😍
I remember this technology being part of my daily life. Am I old now?
Yes you are old, but also cool. Damn I loved my mp3 player so much. Coolest bit of tech in ice blue. They didn't last long did they?
I kept using an MP3 player long after most adopted smartphones. The library has audiobooks on CD, many in MP3 CD format. It's still lurking in the background, and I still rip CDs instead of downloading music for most of my library because I like physical media.
You know kids are even doing cassettes now? Problem is you can't find cassette players. Wish I hadn't thrown my tapes out.
I've fully adopted the digital age - we even have a Bluetooth receiver attached to the stereo.
Yet vinyl.Love that warm crackle sound still..
Yup. Records and cassettes are in today. Will 8-track or VHS re-emerge first?
Oh 8 track yes, hmm, VHS not so sure.
Give it another 20 years and all of this stuff will come back in style
The 90s are already popular again. I expect the aughts to have a nostalgic resurgence in the next decade. All I want is Microsoft to stop pretending Windows hasn't been going downhill since XP, and finally update XP64 for modern machines. Fantasy, I know...
No you are only if remember 8-tracks.
I remember them being a thing, but my family was already microcassete-only media.
We had some truck drivers and so they were big. Literally. LOL
The good old days
One of my pine seeds germinated early. It's a Korean Pine. It sprouted half way through its warm stratification process. But it was suppose to go in the fridge for another 90 days before it would sprout.
Will be interesting to see when the other seeds sprout. #hivegarden
uh oh hopefully it doesn't cause too much of a mess for ya.
Hah.. it should not. If they come up early I just put them in dirt early.
Greetings @solominer ,
Lovely...to have success like this....does this Pine have an aroma? Cheers.
Thank you.. not really sure yet. I am trying not to disturb it too much. Maybe it does.
It smells like a pine tree farted.. 😆
The birth and growth of a life! I'm happy for this moment!
Thank you. I am happy they are already coming up
Damn that happened quick
Yeah quite unexpected
Good morning everyone 🍩
Let's start the week with a new update to Snaps 🎉
You can now vote with a single click. Long press/click will open the standard vote interface. Thanks to @engrave for suggesting this.
This option can be enabled in your settings.
Here I was on a good way to regain my voting power.
Haha I didn't think this through
Thanks for the hardwork, man! It works well now 😄
Of course a few small UI improvements and fixes are included as well 😆
Very good!
Sorry but which part of the snap to long click? Whenever I do… the effect is “Im now selecting the text”?
I’m doing it wrong, is it?
Oh sorry, the "vote/hearth" icon.
Hmm it seems the same thing happen. Now it’s selecting the number of votes (tried my best to press the 💙)
Weird, seems to be working here. Do you use Keychain on mobile?
I’m using Chrome in my phone.
Let me test using Keychain app in my phone.
I’m having the same issue using Keychain app.
Is there any feedback from other users?
I’m using iPhone 7 (does it matter whether old or new phone?)
Hey man, i made it work. No long press needed.
Just click as per normal.
Sorry I misunderstood your instruction earlier 😅
Oh ok. Glad it's solved.
Long press is just to "force the vote slider to be opened".
Cool! Enabled it right away!
@asgarth
Could this be a setting we enable for normal votes too?
Christmas season is just around the corner! Here are some of my handcrafted little Christmas trees 🎄
#diy #handcrafted #Christmas
Oh, that looks so cool!
Thank you ☺️
Sooo cute!

Epic sunrise. It's time to go for the full diamond.
I was busy cleaning my desk last Thursday when my dad told us to check out the moon. I managed to capture this with my phone 😍
Have you ever stopped to admire the moon on a random night?
#photography #moon
I have many times. Sometimes when it is full, it peeks through the mini blinds and beckons me to come out and look at it, so I do ! Sometimes it shows me fun crescents out my kitchen window.
The moon really has its way of captivating us 💓
It does !

Wow, great value! It's never been better to comment and actively participate in people's posts. 😀
It was now distributed to one user. You can distribute it to more comments under your post. But it had to be a submission for the contest and there was only one in the first three days.
I see, the commentrewarder project is amazing! The author having the chance to reward those who are there commenting and engaging is a win/win situation.
🤩
But what happened? No other comments that qualify?
Indeed. Commentrewarder only counts the upvoted comment from the first three days after the post was created.
There were more comments, but only one submission for the contest within the first three days in the comments.
Oh it looks like you made a contest using commentrewarder
Gonna check it out soon
I think it’s a good use-case of CR
The contest itself is running for a long time, but I integrated commentrewarder just recently.
100% of the author rewards are distributed via commentrewarder.
That’s very cool 👍
Can you add me to the mention list?
Sure!
My voting mana after implementing the one-tap upvote for snap.
How much percentage do you use for one-tap upvote? This feature is a gold mine!
Ouch ...unexpected side effect 🤣
Mine is at 10% now ...but I feel you, maybe it will have to go down a little bit
Mine is 10% as well.
Mine won't cover the dust even at 100% so I set it to 60%
Hahaha I only have few HP right now, though I have a major plan to increase it more soon! I'm draining my voting mana too fast 🤣
So if your vote isn't large enough to be over dust it's more symbolic anyway and it represents showing people you read it and you care. Move it down to like 5% or something.
Well that makes sense. I will surely do this and now setting my percentage down to 5%
Thanks for making me aware. That´s ingenious!
I use 1% :)
Cool, I hope it will cover the dust!
I use 2% (about $.05) just as an appreciation. I consider it more like a "like".
That's better! It works well for those users who have huge HP.
I leave it at 25%, so that I can always give 1 cent or a little more per vote. Remembering that it's always important to leave each snap with a minimum value of 2 cents
Yep! I can't reach the 0.02 even I set it to 100% for now.
You'll get there soon! I'm sure you will! 💪
10% is my current default weight for snaps and comments.
That's cool. Can it cover the 2-cent threshold for dust?
By double or so, yes.

Arriving to Illium in Mass Effect 2.
Frikkin Whack! DUDE I HAVE TO TRY THIS GAME AGAIN!
it's been years and I think you just awoke something!
it is a great game. I love Witcher trilogy and dragon age origins more but ME2 is still among my favorites.
It's actually hard for me to pick between The Witcher and Mass Effect... really hard!
Testing something new ...when you open a reply to a snap you will see a preview of the parent post. Feedback?
It works fine on my end. I use Brave browser on Android (Mobile). Nice feature!
(Now) I have to click the "View Parent Post" to view it; if this will be made default like you're proposing... yes, it's a good experience IMHO. 😁👌
Being it on. (Not active yet I assume - I don't see previews yet)
Doing my weekly Tower of Trials clear at Night Crows...
looks like a rather decent game!
It's an p2e mmorpg with medieval theme. Every week it has updates with new events and sometimes new content too.

Not sure how long I'll survive, haven't played this in about 2 years!
I will buy an additional vial for every 100 total sold until the beta starts #holozing
Woah they already added total sold count 😳. Saw acid’s comment about this and now it’s live. Things happen quick.
with asgarth on the team you can barely write an idea fully out before he's already implemented it
:o
imma try for 10/100 but might get a bit volatile here and there and who knows if some are waiting for beta release to throw more at it
Fingers crossed ;)
we're preparing zing rewards for vial holders atm as well, should go live tomorrow!
Just to confirm… Alpha Vial holders will start recieving $ZING rewards tomorrow, right?
Yeah as long as no errors occur!
Nice! 👌
Going to be interesting once this goes live!
Depoe Bay #oregoncoast
At 6 acres it is promoted as the world's smallest navigable harbor.
#photography #photographers #silverbloggers #travel
Hmmm I reckon we've got smaller here in the UK
!lolz
I was thinking the same. 🙂
Such as Mousehole in Cornwall, Whitby in Yorkshire perhaps?
Craster in Northumbria maybe. I had a friend who used to live there. It's tiny.
It’s a bit like the smallest pub in England kind of thing!
Yeah, I was a little dubious of that claim. It is promoted by the town, so probably best to take it with a grain of salt. lol
Indeed!

By navigable, do they mean deep enough for larger vessels?
Good question. Not sure what their criteria is for "navigable". Here is a shot of what I think is one of the larger boats to use the harbor. Heading out for a whale watching excursion.
Maybe boats with significant hulls?
Yeah,and probably how much water the boat needs not to run aground.
I did read they have to dredge the harbor of silt every so often to keep it operating.
I think you are correct:)

Temps are getting into the 20s this week way up here but the nights sure are frosty! Celsius that is....not Freedom Units ;)
Not in the 20s at night here yet, but a few nights in the 30s.
When it starts dipping into the 20s, I'll make sure to come snap a complaint.

I think you are measuring your temps in Freedom Units. ;)

Dysfunctional? Perhaps shit scared?.
did you see the latest episode? the show would be over in a single season if everyone just talked to each other. actually most series would be over in a single season if the characters talks to each other....
Haha yes I did. I wished Isabel didn't die. The fireflies... 🥺🥺🥺😭
I'm really enjoying the French setting.

Love the use of gilded and I learn a new thing ... Chrysus ... the god of gold. VERY NICE.
Your haiku packs a punch:)
I did top! I was looking online for gold related words and stumbled across that - don't you love a new discovery?
Glad you enjoyed it. Love games like this!

Good spark for engagement!
Nice ... that is really pretty. I like how you personified the willow as a woman.
I was thinking of 'widow', as perhaps you were, playing with the similarity of sound between 'willow' and 'widow'. ... Been a few years since we interacted on the blockchain; good to 'see' you!
I did not see that ... the widow and willow connection. I saw the tree eye as an old man. Yes, it is very good to interact again:)
