how are stablecoins better than just plain ol’ bitcoin?
They’re not better. They’re fundamentally different.
How do they keep the value at $1 USD?
That’s the secret. They don’t. All we have is a said pinky swear. Stable coins are not truely stable.
But what is? USD is not truly stable in terms of its value either.
It can mean a lot of things, but mostly, USDT/USDC are the two most used ones and are what we would normally call stable coins.
It’s simple: $1 per 1 USDT/USDC. A company pinky swears that it will pay you the money when coins are presented to them. So basically they are printing money with their credit.
It has its value, though. It is certainly easier than any other means of transferring money overseas and is actively used.
I have to know a random guy I never heard of said something?
call me nuts but I don’t mind at all 😆

Basically, how many years does one have to work minimum wage to earn Jeff Bezos’s net worth.
I’ve been using Termux but that’s awesome. Thanks.
I’m using Termux on android and I guess that it’s compensating for smaller screen?
afaik it should come with both cli and gui.
Just do this like I did

Lemmy has tankie problem.
NYC with almost half of the population of Chengdu.
Calling it a distraction when they literally harm our people and bomb our land. Thanks.
To us, it’s at least as urgent and as the U.S. crap and it has been that way for quite a long time.
I’m Korean.
I fully agree that a lot of the shittalk about them is exaggerated and ill-informed. They don’t execute people for having wrong haircut (dyeing can get you into some trouble), no, I do not believe that.
People live there. It’s certainly not nationwide Auschwitz as you might think.
But they also execute/punish people(and their family members) for trying to leave the country for good or talk shit about their supreme leader. I don’t know you but if that’s not a red flag I seriously don’t know what is.
They execute generals all the time, then the generals appear alive a few months later. That’s that mystical Juche necromancy for ya.
Can’t get all the shit right, yes. That doesn’t make their countless crimes-against-humanity testimonies and proof any less valid. And since they are so closed off that even the whereabouts of high-ranking generals are often hard to know, it really is just the tip of the iceberg.
But I’m very sure that you are going to say all the defectors and reporters are liars and parrot all the wild cringe tankie shit that no less than 14 should you have outgrown and that’s fine. You do you. I hope someday you can make a personal visit to North Korea and leave the horrific, capitalistic hellhole of a society the West is.
They don’t want to take ANY risk with batteries. Don’t ask them why…
But honestly, Fold 7 is definitely one of the most impressive phone I’ve ever seen.
Yeah all the terrible shit we see is just a tip of the iceberg.
How’s the usage number and how much does it cost? Always thought that this is literally the best thing that AI is actively doing.
