RE: Here's That Damn Post You Wanted!

in #life4 years ago

bob loblaw's law blog

i asked because 2 notifications seemed to go to the same URL and it was tripping me out. and yeah i think we're having 3 maybe? they don't feel all that disparate though, if anything it's nice to talk about different things. if we just had one comment thread, i bet we'd have simply stopped talking already!

and i would say, there IS political humor that works, but there's also political talk that isn't funny. i know what you're talking about but i don't think it legitimately fits the definition of comedy, regardless of if the messenger is labeled a comedian.

you ever watch The Life & Times of Tim? (total subject change here, i know)

Sort:  

Bob Loblaw. I love that name. It's too bad there's no names left to use, because I would have totally used that one.

And yes you're right, some of it works. Southpark as example. But Stephen Colbert these days as example, and that annoying prompted laughter... WTF? Are we living in 1975?

I haven't seen that, no. I'm a bit of a weirdo I think. If I'm here trying to get some work done, or elsewhere, it's only music. I tune out all the distractions in this world. No news, no politics, no movies, no games, no nothing. Just me, my brain, and some sound pumped directly into my ears. (two can play at this subject changing game)

seems like it might be the kind of show you would like.

i almost always have a TV on, and something else. it reminds me of my chaotic childhood and calms me down.

i also listen to drum and bass

It's on my list. Thanks for the recommendation. When I vanish during my downtime, whenever that'll be again, that's probably when I'll check it out.

I've experienced some chaos. Good times! ...sometimes.

Current song in my head:

interesting music, marty

this is the kind of music i really like-

Yeah. I can handle that stuff. Not sure about that name though. Pretty sure it was taken already.

Since you like cats, I have a song, for you and yours to enjoy, together:

heyy so maybe you can field a couple other questions if you don't mind. looks like i got a payout from ~one of my posts?~

i see in my history an author award and a content reward. then i see a "claim rewards" because i claimed, which only shows the numbers from the author reward.

i don't see how to claim the content reward.

also, for the witness thing, should i just give all my votes out asap or over time? i just mean, is there some benefit to me by giving the votes out. i see something about the interest rate being dependent on witnesses.

and for like my PORN tokens, the PORN POWER says: "and allow you to earn on curation rewards." - i guess this means if someone includes one of my posts in a curated feed? but presumably this only means in curated posts on this tribe's site?

So any pending rewards will show up here:

Everything. Doesn't matter what. Here's what mine looks like right now:

That little bit I haven't claimed yet is probably from someone voting a comment of mine somewhere.

So here's how it works. If the post says $100, you'd get roughly half; fifty bucks. That fifty would be split into HBD and HP. I think it's half and half. So 25 bucks worth of HP and 25 HBD in this scenario. I could be wrong with that split, but that split exists.

Curation rewards, you won't get much. That pays in HP and if you don't have much HP, you don't get much of a curation reward. Curation rewards come standard every time you vote, but yours are small. Build up the HP to see curation reward. Some people think it's a ripoff that they only get half their post payout but when you build up HP, and vote, you make up for some of that fifty percent you lose (technically it's not a loss it just looks that way).

Witnesses. You're free to vote however you see fit. That's also stake based. The more HP you have, the more say you have in governance. Someone with 75k HP like me can push a witness much higher up the rankings than someone with 75 HP. That low number would barely move that witness. It's good to learn about them though, and their projects if they have any. Snoop around when you have time.

You can also vote by proxy. Basically hand that responsibility over to someone else. I personally don't recommend doing that though. That's how a lot of folks lost out on the initial HIVE token snapshot. They handed their voting rights over and the one voting for them voted in favor of a sybil attack. Those people were excluded from Hive because it was the sybil attack we were moving away from. Certainly can't build a new chain that comes with a sybil attack already in the governance. And for some strange reason, people couldn't wrap their heads around that...

For those PORN tokens what they're saying is, if you stake them, you earn curation rewards. That means when you vote other posts and comments within that Tribe. But if you have them staked and use Peakd to vote, provided it's still a post from that Tribe (they can still be viewed and interacted with on peakd) what you'd be doing is voting with your HP and your Porn Power.

So there I see you have roughly 500 power and just over 200 liquid. If you staked the 200, your vote for that tribe would be worth more, and you'd earn more with that vote. Same system with Hive.

If this is confusing. I'm not bored with trying to help you.

oh damn i have heard this before ahaha, i like it and never would have thought of it again. thx for reminding me of it~

also i just wanted to come online so you didn't think i had bailed on the platform ahahah

i made a new nft and i've been working on my website, so i haven't actually had time to post anywhere. i'll prob make a post here showing the nft and in-progess website screens and stuff, the nft i think i can show in some communities, the web stuff i'll prob just post to my own blog cause it's a personal site and i haven't gotten to any stuff that would make me want to show it to devs yet :D

Yeah I just felt like playing something ridiculous. Not all the music I like is obnoxious but I do tend to keep and open mind when it comes to sound. Right now Elvis is playing LOL!

Go at your own pace. Do whatever you want. Do it your own way. I think that's the best way to live.

and hey maybe you can help me with this question -

i can't view my nsfw posts on peakd, it says my settings need to be changed. yet..

image.png

i definitely have it set to show

Did you click "save settings" at the bottom?

I haven't heard of this one maybe @asgarth knows why this may be the case.
