You’re not obligated by money when the money is coming from donations. That’s what donations mean. The people giving them to you are not your customers. Also I can recommend OpenCollective; I’m sure there are other similar solutions as well

Is this becoming a thing now (or maybe it was always a thing), where a language, like Rust, has become popular enough that instead of everyone talking about learning it, they now want to talk about how “simple” and “beautiful” C is for no o

I agree, but from a game perspective I’d say it’s pretty odd that these types of events does not at least result in more alerting to the people concerned. I don’t know if emails are already sent out in this situation, but even if they are i

It seems a bit strange that the dataset used is “suicides from the Marion County Coroner’s Office (n = 776)” when the hypothesis is a correlation between two things where so much public data must be available. It kind of makes you suspect t

It's "Forgejo" (as in a forge), not "Forjego". I personally don't think it's a great name as this confusion perhaps proves. Anyway, I had no idea about the plans to interface with ActivityPub, that is real

You can both be right. The title as it stands describes Codeberg as a "Fast Open Source Alternative to GitHub" and I'd agree that it's a confusing title to say the least. What we're really talking about here is a fr

No it does not. It simply means that it’s far from impossible. Many things that are “far from impossible” are blatantly false.

That’s not the point. It’s a circular problem because if you live in a country where the majority owns guns, your safety is obviously compromised if you don’t, to a degree it wouldn’t be in a country where almost no one did. That women are

The reason I took the example is because Iceland is a developed western country that most people have heard about that happened to match the number. Sure, Iceland has a small population but their GDP per capita is almost 5x that of Romania.

It’s hard to have another business model when you know nothing about the user. Please read up on how Mullvad works and then come back with a coherent argument on how they could be making money off user data.
