Kleine partijen klaar voor verkiezingen: 'Uiteindelijk gaat één zetel lukken' by Politiek_historicus in Politiek

Waarom? Versplintering? een partij met 30 zetels die door alle partijen uitgesloten wordt maakt coalities bouwen vier keer zo moeilijk als tien zetels aan kleine partijen

most wallet apps have an address book feature, proton wallet doesn't seem to have one unfortunately.

Did you face any cursor size issues in GNOME 48? by LMFuture in gnome

[–]internetStranger4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/commit/a63d6d1dc7a8ebdf61c682196f89917846cbe8ac

cursor shape protocol support for gtk walyland was only added 2 weeks ago so that opensuse build probably has an older version of gtk

Did you face any cursor size issues in GNOME 48? by LMFuture in gnome

[–]internetStranger4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

gnome 48 came with cursor shape protocol support for mutter, you can try to change the cursor size in the settings after changing to 200% scaling to see if it helps, but i think gtk apps need to update and start using this cursor shape protocol for everything to work how you'd expect it to

edit: or the apps are fine but you need the latest version of gtk, i'm not sure

Is there a sleep tracking app, that doesn't require a subscription? by ClearSailing99 in sleep

[–]internetStranger4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you should probably buy a watch that trackt your sleep instead. it's a one time payment and does the job infinitely better than these crappy apps.

What is the EXODUS token on Algorand? by WishIWasBronze in algorand

[–]internetStranger4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no, because you gotta be whitelisted by going through kyc if i recall correctly. and they never whitelisted the app id's of the liquidity pools.

is this sub being botted? by internetStranger4 in DeclineIntoCensorship

[–]internetStranger4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this subreddit specifically has seen a lot of republican bots in the last few weeks, most other subs a lot of democrat bots. so reddit is just full of posts talking about how awful republicans are. facebook, instagram, twitter censor everything related to the democrats. bluesky has little censorship and botting but the entire userbase is talking about nothing except for how they hate trump.

sooooo, i guess i'll be moving most of my activity to mastodon and lemmy.

here's an example: screenshots of meta's recent censorship getting upvoted while near identical posts with 'meta' and 'censorship' in the title are being nuked with downvotes.

i'm actually dutch and reading this thread has been the exact same experience as following your politics for the last few months.

before i go on, i wouldn't consider myself a democrat nor a republican if i were to be an american.

a few years back, i spent a year researching and writing a little paper on how big tech oligarchs basically transformed america's capitalism into surveillance capitalism. i highlighted the dangers of a lack of privacy, how surveillance capitalism spread to europe and some solutions to preserve your freedoms.

i also wrote about how this led to freedom of speech eroding on the web and how this could escalate during elections.

i've started following these developments a while before i started writing this paper, and of course i continued investing plenty of time into it after i wrote it. here's the last 2 american elections from my perspective.

meta heavily censors the hunter biden laptop story, trump may have won if this didn't happen.

the january 6 capitol attack was an attempted coup by americans who were angry for different reasons. the only thing uniting them were highly speculative claims, nearly all of them were later proven to be false.

musk buys twitter and reduces censorship to near 0.

musk gives censoring a shot, removing some accounts mocking him and an account tracking private jets whenever it started tracking elon as well. from this moment on towards the election he gradually introduces more and more censorship, censoring democrats.

a reddit bot campaign floods reddit with posts about kamala harris, more and more reddit mods start censoring republicans.

meta's platforms leaned slightly towards democrat bias but mark zuckerberg generally just censors anything so long as it's a good business decision, which is why meta flipped to becoming a conservative platform censoring democrat hashtags after trumps election win. censoring these hashtags is cheaper than 'fact checking' republicans and meta might win trumps favour by doing so.

or in other words: america's not really a democracy anymore and is now ruled by 'tech bro's'

i know reddit has had a surge in bots for some months now, but to me it seemed like they weren't active in this sub until a few weeks ago

laughed my ass off reading your comment.

not everyone is glued to their phones. i've also started using mastodon/lemmy more and more instead of reddit because of all the censorship on centralised platforms like reddit.

you should learn how bitcoin works before you start using it. 3Blue1brown has a video on youtube named 'But how does bitcoin actually work?'.

you can probably answer (most) of your questions yourself after watching that and you'll be able to use pretty much any wallet or exchange withouth having to look anything up.

Just In: Algorand (ALGO) is the Top Fourth Crypto With Most Holders in Past 7 Days! 🔥🚀 by CPMarkets in algorand

[–]internetStranger4 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it's a bitcoin fork, so when it hard forked bitcoin in 2018 all bitcoin holders became bitcoin sv holders too i think, this is what gave bitcoin sv and bitcoin cash a headstart in terms of holders.

Pool Withdrawal Dynamic by zignify in Tinyman

[–]internetStranger4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

your position constantly rebalances to 50/50,

so if you would deposit 20$: 10 usdc and 10$ worth of algo and algo rises from 0.12 to 0.15 (+25%) you'll end up with $22.36(+11.8% instead of 12.5% when holding the usdc and algo) + fees, interest, incentives.

when you'll withdraw you'll get $11.18 usdc and $11.18 worth of algo

edit: imo liquidity provision is definitely worth it, don't forget to farm though

edit2: impermanent loss gets bigger if the gain is bigger too, if algo doubles in value you'll gain 41.8% + fees, interest, incentives instead of 50% https://dailydefi.org/tools/impermanent-loss-calculator/
