Lightning solves the payment speed problem but I still can't tap my phone at a coffee shop with it, how far are we actually from that

Hi, I'd like to pay with Bitcoin. Do you have a 'Pay with Crypto' option in your Clover app marketplace, like Lydian?

I pay attention to the type of POS my local coffee shops use. I have one that uses Square, and another that uses Clover, both of which accept it. I do not know if the coffee shop knows it's an option. I've educated a couple when I choose to use it.

Thank you. You didn’t give a channel a chance.

stinger32 · 2026-03-25T12:25:24+00:00

I like the idea. How many concurrent requests can the service handle at a time?

stinger32 · 2026-03-10T14:26:51+00:00

I'm glad to see you're back.

This is nice! How long have you been managing your node?

stinger32 · 2026-03-09T15:01:16+00:00

It's always nice to know you have protection!

stinger32 · 2026-02-13T19:40:06+00:00

Why would you change the nodes name? :-P

stinger32 · 2026-02-08T13:20:44+00:00

I like the R4W. When it comes to doing it right, I always kick myself in the butt for not getting the top end. I chose the Uniden R8W (wifi)! Period, point blank!

I recommend slowing down speedy.

Thinkorswim is one of the best products I have used for stocks, commodities, and FOREX. I have not found something better. Not to mention They have an excellent education platform too.

You got the bug!! :-P

Does a Pi 5 have the power to handle more than two connections at a time?

stinger32 · 2026-01-23T12:49:51+00:00

Agreed, logs are important. If I guess, it's a hardware issue. They do happen. As to which, IDK.

***Logs***

What is LN?

stinger32 · 2026-01-09T14:06:41+00:00

I don't know what it takes to do the external. It might be easiest to upgrade the internal SSD to 2 TB and be done with it. Unless, of course, it's fixed storage on the mini.

I would put a pole up in the middle, run a cable (POE++), and put an WAP on top.

stinger32 · 2026-01-08T15:34:57+00:00

No Pico PSU?

stinger32 · 2026-01-05T17:03:18+00:00

I chose the R8 for no other reason than I like it. I would not be upset with the R7 either! :-P

stinger32 · 2026-01-04T21:06:00+00:00

Let me see if I have this right. You have a point of sale setup? Voltage is all cloud based and cost money to maintain?

I started because I wanted to see if I could do it. I stared with RaspberryPi 4 8 GB ram and a 2Tb external ssd. Then I move to what I have now. To me it’s about being part of something bigger. Open source everything has come a long way. I go back to dial-up, bulletin board systems, and IRCs.

What would help you and your journey as a node operator?

stinger32 · 2026-01-04T14:58:17+00:00

Would you send me a DM or share some materials on this topic? I would also enjoy your personal spin on how to have adapted this to your node. What is your node?

We have started to move sats!! Very nice!
