Walking on my desk as im working, in front of me, and of course swishing the tail right up in my face

What does this have to do with the community?

Came here to recommend this as well. You beat me to it :p

Looks interesting, but sadly its not available in my country, same as Quobuz :/

Edit: Why are these platforms only available in certain countries?

As someone from a country that Quobuz doesnt support, and someone not willing to give money to a US owned company (Tidal), what are my options for streaming music? Something that has playlists obviously, and allows me to save the stuff I like. Possibly being able to add downloaded songs if theyre not available in the services library(?)

Is there anything like this? Most suggestions here on lemmy seem to be for Quobuz or Tidal

Havent watched it yet so just going off what you said, but yea i kinda endorse it.

Whats the location of the moon when she tells you?

Recently had an issue with qt5-webengine not building, leading to stremio not updating. Every fix i tried i had to try to rebuild, only for it to fail until a glorious person posted a comment on its AUR page.

Also, fuck electron

Check out the NoThanks app! I believe its creator is Palestinian

Im a neovim user myself, and i swapped my caps and escape keys at the os level. I touch another computer and am WONDERING WHY IM WRITING LIKE THIS xD

Im not from the US but ill be mean to any one of them i encounter

I dont want to repeat since that may just get my comment also removed, but I dont know if you can see the comment contents in the modlog or not.

That whole series is great, I rewatch it every so often

Whenever i encounter the “we cant revolt, theyll shoot us” argument from americans i always think to myself “so youd rather they shoot someone else in a different country then? Right”

Its clear subconsciously at least they think theyre superior and value their own lives above other nation’s peoples.

Whats wrong with slavs? I agree with you about tha yanks part though.

Give fairphone a look. Maybe youll like them and what they do

Eh? What?

So is not voting AND doing nothing else…

My point was basically to try to make you look at it from a different perspective. Sure 1 euro is better than 0, but thats not the point I was trying to make.

That looks at it from the perspective of the person in need of that 1 euro, or however much money. Im asking you to look at it from the perspective of the one giving the money. Now ask yourself why they would give just 1, if they can give 5, or 10, or give 1 consistently every month, assuming theyre rich-rich compared to the homeless guy.

The reason seems to be that the person giving the money doesnt care about helping in any way, they just want to do the minimum so that they can claim they help abd support the homeless.

Context and intent matters when discussing things like this, I think. If the intent is self serving, we shouldnt be treating FUTO as a beacon of OSS support. What we should be doing is acknowledging that they did give a small one time donation to various projects, but also recognising that it was for self-serving reasons. I’m sure theres individuals who have given more than 1000 in single payments to these projects, or less but more consistently (monthly, every 6 months, every year, etc). What makes FUTO more of a supporter than those individuals?

Anyway, I hope I explained my thinking well enough :)

Edit: I gave you the upvote even though I dont entirely agree with the way you see this matter, simply because I saw you got downvoted probably by someone else who disagrees with your opinion. However, upvotes/downvotes should be used to rate quality of discussion, not agreement/disagreement with the content.
