hmm is polling every ten seconds polite
this is why i prefer we just charge for things, have actual markets for things even, then we can know what the real prices are and weigh the cost against the benefits :)
faster polling's just better for me :D but i want to be polite :)
just checking there isn't anything here my script missed ... nope ... actually quiet :)
hm let's see how do i post that somewhere so it formats correctly
also does this comment trigger it :)
seems to work! it's just 17 lines so no reason it shouldn't :)
i'll post the script soon :)
i've decided i'm going to use different colors on my xterms so i can tell at a glance which one is which, i think this is going to be great, i chose #a0c0f0 for the foreground on this one connected to this cloud server, light blue like almost robin egg, relaxing 💙
i wrote this while talking on a twitter space about how cheap blockpost is :)
yeah that's why rather than just making my own node, what i'm thinking of doing is getting some people together to have a node together, if there's like a couple dozen people in the co-op that should come out to a reasonable price :D

Apparently, bitcoinfiles is quicker in the uptake of a new transaction than Bitbus 🤨

The system requirements for a node are quite hefty, and only going up.

On it!
well
how many years did it take instagram to get to more than 400 users
i know it seems like this is silly & nothing since it's just me here blabbing
but this is absolutely serious business
Twetch was taking upon itself a weighty mantle, as the next in a series of contenders seeking to break open Facebook (mostly, also Twitter & w/e), following after Identica and Diaspora and Mastodon and so forth, and like them it failed
this is another potential contender for how the world connects and communicates
the platform is strong
the time is right
i'm interested but poor but i'd absolutely pay a reasonable fee to access an api with endpoints like, what are the most recent bsocial posts, what are the most recent bsocial posts w/ this tag/search, that sort of thing, that's the only missing piece we need for lots of people to easily build interfaces :)
do you have physical node infrastructure or is it in the cloud? do you know what aws configuration you'd need for a node these days, it does need some pretty hefty networking doesn't it, like 1 gig upstream? i've been thinking i'd really enjoy getting some people together and running a co-op node :)
I am still using Bitbus to scan the chain. So, there is a node and a processor needed for this.
This is also a service that BlockPost could offer if there is interest.
inb4 foxes end up selling below mint
those foxes are kinda cute but nearly a bitcoin and a half jfc
well is there a way for me to make another interface that sees all the bsocial transactions other than to have a node and scan everything? is that what you're doing???
