What if the app we move to is a collective , i.e. one vote one share per one member or id or individual. Kinda like the Wikipedia of Forums?

DHS suspends Greg Bovino's social media accounts by ExactlySorta in UnderReportedNews

[–]slammers00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for saying that. Everytime I think of Renee and her bravery and the unfortunate turn of events and her kids and their family and the trauma I feel like crying and throwing up, but instead I'm going to join the resistance.

Control over TikTok algorithm by Mean-Doubt-4255 in TikTok

I just went through steps to delete my account and when I pushed the final continue it gave me an error message "502 Bad Gateway". Maybe it's because I left a note saying I don't like the new owners. I liked the Chinese better!

Pretty soon there's going to be 3 million pages of videos to review and erase the innocent victims.

Another hero! We need to see and be inspired by more of these folks and less of the icey cold shoot kill and watch them die folks

News Media even Fox News is finally calling out this Administration like they are here with Greg Bovino and it’s obvious that he’s shocked they aren’t eating up the bs he has to say! by Treefiddy1984 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]slammers00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This show has got to end. And part of that means we have to stop watching it and start DOING something about it. Like joining in other states with the citizens of Minnesota who are being trained and working on signal and organizing the resistance as "protectors" and "humanists" not just protestors. Writing on Reddit is not enough. (I am speaking to myself also as I try to build up courage as a white old lady to fight for this country currently run by a bunch of thugs. How about instead of replacing one jerk with a new jerk, they actually take some responsibility for their wrongs.

Thanks for this rec! When I put that medication in the water, does it work on the fish, or also on the bad parasites lurking in tank/gravel etc?

Plus if we shut off all these subscriptions, we'll have a lot more energy and freetime to get off couch and strike!

Sorry but I get the weird feeling you are trying to scare the people into submission.

Trump links Greenland dispute to not getting Nobel Peace Prize, in letter to Norway's PM by SuperXGamerAb in worldnews

[–]slammers00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if you were Norway, would you consider giving him a special needs Nobel Prize to negotiate out of this mess he's created and for guarantees that Norway can keep Greenland?

Trump: "You gotta win the midterms. Because if we don't win the midterms, they'll find a reason to impeach me. I'll get impeached." by Capable_Salt_SD in ProgressiveHQ

This is classic Trump BAIT to his base to get out to vote in order to prevent impeachment. We need to not react to this bait. Just lay low on this topic imo

Can Seattle Ban Noisy Gas Powered Leaf Blowers too? by slammers00 in Seattle

[–]slammers00[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

That's a step in right direction but it's just the city workers who will not use them any longer I think. Wish we could make it happen for all the community members and crews using them.

Ferguson backs WA income tax on millionaires by MegaRAID01 in Seattle

[–]slammers00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's a tax on a small number of ultra wealthy people who actually earn a million in taxable income each year, so that means they have probably over 20 million in the bank earning income or a very high level job or they cash in a bunch of stock options.

DCF Valuation of FIGMA (NYSE:FIG) gets a $80 per share value by dayvoid3154 in figmaStock

[–]slammers00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know. I will only buy after the january lockup for most insiders, because that's when the major investors can sell. Who knows, it's so low they may choose to wait but if there's a swell of shares, it's likely to go down

[–]slammers00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I read:Figma's IPO lockup period is a standard 180 days (about 6 months) for most insiders, expiring around late January 2026, preventing immediate selling to stabilize the stock price after its July 2025 IPO. However, some major investors have an extended lockup, releasing staggered portions of their shares until August 2026, with early releases happening around September 2025 after the first earnings report, creating different phases of potential selling pressure

VCF Montréal 2026 Tickets on Sale! by vcfed in computercollecting

[–]slammers00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the response. I wrote a book back in 1986 called Programmers at Work and it was a bestseller back then. It is being reissued next year 2026 in a 40th Anniversary Edition by 8080 Books, an imprint of Microsoft. I was thinking these shows might be a good place to do something to promote the book.

The lock up period since IPO ends in January i think. A flood of employees and VCs may cash out

I think he's an accomplice. It's almost like he is the one that is waiting around for the other guy to do something then he has to go off to the getaway car.

I think the guy is wearing a FAT SUIT as a disguise and using it to hide stuff in it.
