Apparently another small update. The limit for the FreeTips has been 76 cents since time immemorial. I have just discovered that I have 79 cents available. Maybe it will go up even further, I'll keep an eye on it.
@Cryptozeug in December 2021
My first #NFT ever was a #CryptomonKey. It was through these little guys that I first became aware of NFTs and #WAX. Unfortunately, I don't have very many of them yet. Today @TrocProcLock drew my attention to the fact that there is an advent calendar of MonKeys on Discord and you can win one every day. Or santa brings coal, as in my case. You have to be level 2 to participate. Just keep chatting until your level goes up. It's worth a try anyway. You can find all the other…
Damn, that was close. 🥴
Yes, grumpy old men need an advent calendar too. So here is mine. It's a scratch calendar with 24 chances to win. The more identical symbols, the better. I already have a bell and a sleigh. 10 bells are very unlikely, so I'm hoping for 6 sleighs. The good thing about this calendar is that it's not fattening and that I get it as a present from my parents every year. You're never too old for something like that. The friendly snowman on the side was made by my son as a present.…
A #free #PC #game every week? Boooooring? Ok, then there are two today. Both highlights in my eyes. Epic Games is giving away until 9 December - Dead by Daylight (action, horror, survival by Behaviour Interactive) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGhIXLO3ul8 - while True: learn() (simulation, puzzle, machine learning) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hITJdnpP790 As always, have fun!
I accidentally permanently deleted some important folders on an SSD. The scan of a recovery software has been running for 5 hours now and so far about 1/5 is done. This is going to be a long process. Wish me luck!
No backup - no pity! I should have known! In March, I integrated a second SSD into my computer and then copied data to it. I still kept the old version of the data as a precaution. It was only when I wanted to make a backup the day before yesterday (yes, much too late!) and clean up the computer beforehand that I deleted the old data. Unfortunately, some of them were still linked on my desktop, so I deleted the wrong ones. My rescue attempt started yesterday at noon with the…
Now the first snow has also made it to the city. At least there was still some of it to be seen on my car this morning. But the sun has already thawed everything again. Time for the thick jacket.
Last night I met up with some good friends, some of whom I hadn't seen for years. A very nice evening with good food and drink and lots of nice conversations, almost like in the old days. Of course there are no photos of it, that's the law ;) It was a very nice, invigorating evening. But now I have to recover from it... I got the smoking man (Räuchermännchen) as a present. Another tradition at Christmas time. Of course I tried it out straight away and now there is a…
What a start to the day. Today a colleague woke me up by phone because I overslept. Something like that should absolutely not happen and has never happened before. Luckily, my colleagues and the boss are very relaxed about it and there were no further problems. Nevertheless, the end of work today will start 20 minutes later. Very annoying.

On the evening before St. Nicholas Day, the children clean their shoes (the only time of the year) and put them by the door. St. Nicholas then comes at night and fills the boots with small presents, fruit or chocolate. If you live alone, however, he doesn't come. Last year, my son and I cleaned our shoes and left him some biscuits and a beer. There was no milk left. He was very pleased and the beer tasted good to me... sorry, him, too.
Tips from our wallets – good idea but not complete. I think the new heart value update may well have advantages. Unfortunately, it doesn't work if you don't have a wallet linked. I prefer the old method and continue to collect the tips I receive up to the payout limit. Now it would be nice if some of these collected tips could also be converted into hearts. Unfortunately, that doesn't work (yet). I set a heart value but nothing happens. I think there should be some…
I generally like statues better than people. But also animals, plants, some metals and certainly some other things. Statues usually look good and have a message to convey (not like some people). They are not unfriendly or egotistical, they are not annoying and above all they are quiet. Of course there are exceptions but I don't want to talk about personality cult. I met this cupbearer today in the park of a hospital where I was delivering medicines. He wanted to offer me…
When replying to a post by @moonlight22 (https://noise.cash/post/lnwjj9nm) I had to think of an old post of mine, which I then found again via search. Unfortunately, not only mine. The thief is no longer active but it's certainly a good idea to search for your own texts now and then. My words are still current I guess. LISTEN AND REPEAT If it's noise, I'll respect it. If I like it, I'll tip it. If I don't like it, I'll skip it. If it's spam, I'll block and report it. Simple…

Today I have a #riddle for you. I would like to know: - What does this picture show? - What exactly is being done with it? The first person who can answer both questions correctly will get €1 in BCH directly into their wallet. If no one finds out, I will solve the riddle on Sunday at the latest. One thing in advance: I will not answer or rate your solutions until the puzzle is solved, in order to keep the odds even. Only the first attempt of each person will be scored. Be…
Don't forget to pick up your weekly #free #PC #games ! Epic Games has for you today: - Godfall Challenger Edition (action, adventure, singleplayer, co-op by Counterplay Games, 2020) - Prison Architect (strategy by Double Eleven and Paradox Interactive) I don't know either game but they're free so I'm taking them. As always, have fun!
The beginning of everything. My contribution to the #photochallenge37 by @FriendlyMoose on the theme of #nature. I have been waiting for a continuation of this challenge for months, it was always a very creative action back then and the photos are a feast for the eyes.
At Coinbase there is once again something to earn. This time $3 in Quant QNT. Presumably it is personalised again, so not everyone can participate. Try your luck! https://www.coinbase.com/earn
Whenever I'm on the road again with my diesel, I'm pleased that at least electricity generation is slowly being converted to renewable energies. It feels like a new wind turbine is growing every week. Many people are bothered by this, but I'm glad. Many think the sight destroys our nature, but there is no question of that in a cultural landscape anyway. Anyway, I hope that my next car will be powered by these wind turbines.
The cold has come over the country and actually I don't like it. However, in combination with bright sunshine, it gave us some beautiful views today. The city seems enchanted or deserted. Unfortunately, it is not.
The other day I had a #riddle for you but I'm afraid it was a bit too hard. https://noise.cash/post/3nr468ran80g I wanted to know what the picture shows and what exactly is done with it. Many of the suggested solutions were in the right direction. Yes, they are indeed glasses. And yes, they are waiting to be filled. But I wanted to know more precisely. So here is the solution to the riddle. They are many small 1 gram tubes for globules, homeopathic "medicines". In other…
Our local zoo is selling the best Christmas present ever. Who wouldn't love a voucher for 10 litres of elephant dung? Yes, indeed, they make gold out of shit. Of course, there is a serious background to this. The dung is to be used in gardens, as fertiliser. And the profit will benefit the animals, at least that's what I hope.
A day without time for noise, I am extremely sorry! We installed a new telephone system at work today and set up all the new phones. I can't hear any more ringtones today, no matter what the volume. But at least the time passed very quickly and the new system will save me a lot of time and nerves in the future. That's the plan. Welcome to this millennium... No time for my own photos of boring technology, so here is a similar image, thanks to Pixabay.
Good morning! One of the better ways to start a day is to earn something on Coinbase. Today I was able to earn $3 in IoTeX (IOTX). Have a look, maybe you can also participate! Good luck!
A good friend has a little brewery and passed his exam two days ago so now he is a #brewmaster. This is of course a reason to celebrate and so he visited me last night and brought some of his great #beer for tasting. In the pictures you can see a pilsner and a red, both unfiltered and great tasting. He really deserves the title of brewmaster. My congratulations!
My contribution to the @FriendlyMoose #photochallenge38 is a picture from summer. It's not easy to choose flowers, of course, everyone has 1000 photos of them and on noise there are 1000 more every day. My choice is this graceful beauty, which has just been visited by my favourite insect, the hoverfly. And when I see all these pictures, I miss summer.
It's just after 8 in the morning and I'm already back from the doctor. Gave blood and other fluids in preparation for my regular check-up. Since it's Friday and I'm not working, I think I'll lie down for a while and finish my interrupted night's sleep. Have a good time, noisers!
It's time again for a #free #PC #game. Today Epic Games is giving you for free: - Neon Abyss (Shooter, Platformer by Veewo Games and Team17 Digital Ltd. 2020) Have a look here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3UwmosxytU It's not for me personally this time but I think some of you might enjoy it. As always, have fun!
For as long as I can remember, we have had an illuminated paper star at Christmas time. Even though we are not religious people, this star simply belongs. After many, many years, the last star had become old and needed a replacement. My parents had very precise ideas about size, colours, lighting, material, etc. These stars are a regional speciality, handmade and it was not easy to get one just before Christmas. But finally I was able to order one and now it is there and…
And the #free #PC #games marathon continues. Epic has just revealed the free game for today: - Remnant: From the Ashes (Action, Shooter by Gunfire Games and Perfect World Entertainment Inc., 2020) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uk4WII1oTp8 An ancient force has taken over the world and you must be one of the last surviving humans to take back the planet. Sounds doable... As always, have fun!
I would like to tell you something interesting or at least show you a breathtaking weather photo. But there's just nothing happening this weekend. No appointments, no commitments, nothing. Not even weather. Everything is grey at 0 degrees. And you know what? I'm enjoying it to the full. Just doing nothing, not worrying about anything or anyone. I have the feeling that my strength is slowly returning. Ready for a day of work tomorrow and then holidays. But so that you don't…
I hope you don't think I'm a spammer when I present you another #free #PC #game. I don't think I will noise every game here in the next few days, but I would like to point out that Epic Games is currently offering a free game every day. Today there is - The Vanishing of Ethan Carter (Mystery, exploring by The Astronauts, 2014) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mpd211W6U0 As a detective, you are on the search for a missing boy and use your psychic abilities. The game is…
Over the course of the year, I always save up (hodl) a few days of holiday and it pays off today. In not quite 10 hours, the work for this year will be over and there is little I look forward to more. A second coffee, then, once again, give 100% and prepare everything as best as possible and then the brain is switched off for this year. I hope that there will be more time for photos and noise. I wish you a good start to this week and everyone who celebrates Christmas a lot…
Aaaaaand the time has come. My holiday has officially begun, no more work this year, just a few quiet days, first alone, then with the family. At least that's the plan. Of course, this has to be celebrated and so I treat myself to a good Christmas beer, a gift from a friend who doesn't drink beer himself. Strange behaviour. Cheers to the noble donor and to you, noisers!
I got my #TLM back! 32 days ago I stupidly teleported 130 TLM from WAX to BSC. Of course, I didn't take into account the BSC network fees and my TLM was already hanging in the air. Fortunately, there is a good guide from Alien Worlds that helps in this case. Every step is explained in detail, so you can claim your TLM back after 30 days if the #teleport has expired. It took 32 days for it to work for me and I was suitably nervous. But AW Support responded quickly and put me…

I saw Santa Claus, he stole a DVD player.... This graffiti has been on this wall for at least 10 years. And it's respected, no one sprays over it, it's even incorporated into new graffiti. I think the subtle humour behind this work ensures its survival.
Winter solstice - a special day, a special night. A day that invites us to close the past year and enter into a period of rest before the next year. The longest night of the year by the fire with good friends, that's how it was and that's how it should be again. With distance, vaccination, testing, beer and mulled wine, of course. Traditionally, last year's Christmas trees are burned and punk rock blares from the Bluetooth box. No, this is not a typical German custom and…
What a night! The winter solstice represents the longest night of the year and indeed it was. On the way home I saw many people on their way to work. Accordingly, I'm taking it easy today. And if your washing machine breaks down, take out the washing drum, it can be used as a stylish fire basket.
It's that time of year when people get in their cars, stand in traffic jams together to solve their parents' computer problems at home. It's Christmas! I'm just packing my things and getting ready for the drive. The route planner shows some red spots and freezing rain is announced. It's going to be fun! Have a great day and I'll check in again tonight.
Lost places Every now and then I stop at a rest area where this lost little house stands. It is an old kiosk that was abandoned about 15 years ago. In the meantime it serves as a holder for all kinds of stickers and unfortunately also as a toilet for motorists. Still, I like places like this, a little piece of the past in the present.
One year of noise cash and 2500 of you are determined enough to look at my posts. Although I'm sure you can remove 0 from that number, I thank you all and the creators of the site for the experiences here over the past year. In the beginning I didn't call anyone here a friend, in the meantime some people from all corners of the planet have joined and influenced my life in one way or another. I look forward to the next years with you!
The universe in a nutshell Ever since I can remember, and even before, this little forest in a nutshell has been with us at Christmas time. The little work of art will have found its way into our family around 1975 and has been treated like a treasure ever since. As you can see, it is a real walnut that has been transformed into this little world with intricate carvings and minerals. Merry Christmas, noisers!
Just a quick greeting from the daily Christmas routine. I haven't forgotten you, but time simply doesn't allow any more. Enjoy the holidays!
Now that Christmas is almost over, my son has finally arrived with us after all. Now we have a few days together. Of course, there was time for presents again. I got a very creative, delicious and selfmade gift, this crazy chocolate, with sugar pearls, nuts, hemp seeds, almonds, strawberries and obviously a lot of love. Almost too good to eat it...
Yesterday, while waiting for the train my son is arriving on, I noticed these patterns in the snow. The cobblestones apparently still retained enough heat to create these shapes. One of the few really quiet moments this Christmas.
Funkelfenster - Sparkle windows This year, empty shops in our city have been transformed into fairytale worlds that invite you to take a stroll through the old town. So my parents, my son and I took a trip today and enjoyed the atmosphere. Unfortunately, so did a lot of other people, sometimes it was too crowded for me in the narrow streets. Afterwards a homemade pizza and now it's time for the Darts World Cup. Everyone is happy...
Today it's time to pack up and head back to the city after a week. I will miss the quiet surroundings but I am also looking forward to my own flat again. Maybe then there will be a bit more time for noise again. See you tonight, have a nice time until then.
Today Epic Games once again has something special on offer for free. #free #PC #Games today: - Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration - Shadow of the Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition - Tomb Raider GOTY I think that's all that needs to be said. As always, I hope you have fun with the games.
Here it is illegal again this year to buy fireworks for New Year's Eve. That should and will relieve the overburdened hospitals. But it is not illegal to possess them. And it is not illegal to set off ONE firecracker to welcome the New Year. I'm ready for the next 56 years of #pandemic. 🖖😎
Dinner for One - The 90th Birthday An important tradition on New Year's Eve is to watch this sketch. Miss Sophie is celebrating her 90th birthday and has invited her long-dead friends to the occasion, all played by her butler James. Of course, there are alcoholic drinks with every meal, which James soon notices... Great fun for the whole family, laughs guaranteed! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORvvK47EZqw Why all this? You can find out here:…
I successfully replaced an empty cup of coffee with a full glass of Cuba Libre. Now the evening can start. I wish you all a wonderful New Year's celebration in the best of health and a peaceful New Year!
The current shit has to become a different one! One hour to go until the new year and slowly the excitement is rising. I wish you a peaceful and healthy new year and I wish noise a successful future. A few sparks to drive away all the bad.
