  • Question about donating to open source
  • I'm not quite that organized,

    I've donated around 2 euros to huge projects like Wikipedia when they have a donation campaign, or 20 euros to projects like draw.io when I notice on github that they haven't met their monthly goal yet.

    The amount and frequency completely depends on my financial situation at the time and I only donate when I am using a piece of software/project (so when I remember, basically) on my free time and decide to check updates/state of the project.

    So I'm not a frequent donor to any specific projects and several months may pass without donating any money, but when I have a bit more disposable income and when I'm doing free-time computer related hobbies I take a sum (lets say 50e) and distribute that money depending on project size. Smaller projects get more (less likely to have a lot of donors) big projects less (hopefully they have a lot of people donating small amounts that add up).

  • Did it automatically get updated to anniversary edition if you owned the games? Can't seem to upgrade and says I already own it..?

  • Life pro tip from Ronny Chieng
  • You'd think so, but they've ruined the comment section with critical takes about the video plot and even comment on the performance as if it were "A Midsummer Night's Dream" theater play.

  • It's hard to tell anymore if the internet truly offers nothing of value to me or if I'm just dead inside.
  • I'mma go with number two for a sure bet, could be number one too, but number two for sure

  • [Answer to yesterday's question] The number of active users on join-lemmy.org is now back to normal
  • Also want to thank Blaze, love the amount of posting and commenting you do!

  • How do you set up wake up alarm and not miss it ?
  • Damn. I'm sorry to hear that dude, hope you are doing better now.

  • How do you set up wake up alarm and not miss it ?
  • Does this occur even after a few nights of proper sleep?

    If you generally sleep enough and don't have other sleeping problems you could try to change the ringtone. Or if you are like me and turn off the alarm half a sleep and don't remember it, put your alarms further away from your bed.

  • after 40 all meals are horror
  • I have adopted the "Central European" diet:

    One large meal a day and then leftovers + bread and toppings.

    Occasionally might have more but that's my daily meal plan and works pretty great.

    yle.fi Salaliittoteorioiden vyöry alkoi vain tunteja Trumpin ampumisen jälkeen – nämä teoriat leviävät nyt

    Trumpin salamurhayritykselle löytyy salaliittoteorioita sekä vasemmisto- että oikeistoleiristä.

    Salaliittoteorioiden vyöry alkoi vain tunteja Trumpin ampumisen jälkeen – nämä teoriat leviävät nyt

    Pahoittelut jos ulkomaahan liittyvä artikkeli ei sovi tänne, mutta halusin ottaa esille haastateltavan suomalaisen sukunimen, joka sattuu olemaan artikkelin aiheeseen osuva ja aluksi sai ainakin minut hämmentymään lukiessani artikkelia.

    Lyhyesti:

    Aihe käsittelee Trumpin salamurhaa yrittäneen ampujan ympärillä vellovia salaliittoteorioita, haastateltavana on dosentti Marko Ampuja.

    GitHub - openglobus/openglobus: TypeScript/JavaScript 3D maps and geospatial data visualization engine library

    Just wanted to share this since I didn't find anything on lemmy about this. It's a pretty cool open-source project that I got introduced to while investigating a google maps / mapbox open-source alternatives for globe representation on the web.

    Sorry if it doesn't fit into this community - didn't find a better community to post this and the sidebar says "OSM related software" posts are ok.

    Here is a link to their website with examples: https://www.openglobus.org/

    How does "Splitser" app make money?

    I had no idea where to ask such a question and I tried to read their terms of use / privacy statements / about us page to find info about how this popular cost splitting app makes money to employ people.

    They don't even accept donations. Sounds very sketchy, but apparently they don't really sell data or even offer this app to businesses. Does anyone know how they make profit?

    Kokemuksia/Tietoa kaasujousellinen näyttövarren kuljettamisesta ulkomaille?

    Nyt olisi tosi spesifi kysymys, jos joltain täällä sattuisi olemaan kokemusta:

    Voiko kaasujousellisen näyttövarren/näyttötelineen kuljettaa lentokoneen ruumassa? Tai voiko vaihtoehtoisesti kuljettaa postissa ulkomaille?

    Ostin aikanaan DELTACO:n ARM-0350 näyttövarsia ja nyt tarvitsisi raahata ne ulkomaille (jos mahdollista), mutta rupesin miettimään tuota kaasujousea. Googlettamalla/Finnairin/Finnavian lähteistä ei löytynyt muuta, kuin että näyttötelineen saa tuoda. Kaasujousista ei ollut mitään infoa.

    Ajattelin soittaa Finnairille, mutta ajattelin kuitenkin täältä kysellä mahdollisia kokemuksia.

    Kaikki Arkisuomen postaukset ei näy

    Tulin käymään /c/arkisuomessa ja huomasin, että täällä on vain yksi postaus (jääteloautoa koskeva postaus), mutta muistelin täällä olevan enemmänkin postauksia.

    Kävin vaihtamassa profiilistani kieleksi "suomi" ja heti alkoi näkyä vanhemmatkin postaukset.

    Lemmyssä/kbinissä on tuo kielivalinta, mutta ymmärtääkseni kaikki postaukset pitäisi näkyä, jos valitsee profiilistaan "undetermined". Osaako joku selittää, miten tuo kielivalinta oikeasti toimii?

    Removing "Releases" and "Packages" section from GitHub repository's page

    Can you not remove "Releases" and "Packages" section from your repository in GitHub?

    There is a gear icon on the repository page "Edit repository details" and it seemingly allows you to remove those sections from the page but they don't do anything. Is it just me / is this limited with a free account or just a bug?

    Couldn't find anything about this by googling. Any answers much appreciated!
