Probably a boring answer but I know my grandmother’s credit card information. I live with and help take care of her, so she doesn’t mind sharing it with me. Not like I’m planning to do anything nefarious, but I guess technically it could ruin her financially.
To be clear: I prefer to pay for things instead of having to see ads but 13€ / month!? For a meta product that has inherently user-hostile design patterns even without ads?...
Exactly. They sat back and waited. They all want to do it. Ads are cancer to just about everything. Cable, internet, streaming, etc. it ruins the user experience.
You don’t realize how large our country is. Rioting only works so much, but when everything is sp spread out, it would only be effective in some cities.
I’ve used Mint for many years. It has never worked well, its budgeting tools are inaccurate, and the UI is garbage. I guess you can say I’m not too broken up about this. I do very well with an Apple Numbers spreadsheet every month. That said, if there are other better options out there, I would consider them.
They make COD so stupid. Launch COD 2, “Welcome to Warzone, the game you didn’t buy but we want you to play and buy stuff because fuck you, give me money”.
I had purchased a year in advance last fall and when it switched over, it only didn’t play on m9bile for me for a week, then I was able to stream on mobile regularly. However, with their changes, I chose not to renew my subscription. Their quality is degrading quite a bit, it was no longer worth it.
The US Food and Drug Administration has proposed revoking its regulation authorizing the nationwide use of brominated vegetable oil, or BVO, as an additive in food....
No doubt. I’m starting to eat healthier because a bag of Doritos is like $5 now when I used to buy it for $2.50-3.00. That’s just one example, but across my snacking ‘units’, everything is outrageous.
Moscow says its deratification of the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty (CTBT) is merely designed to bring Russia into line with the United States, which signed but never ratified the treaty. Russia will not resume nuclear testing unless Washington does, say Russian diplomats....
Are there any ways to contribute to FOSS developers other than paying? I would really like to help/contribute but unfortunately have no regular income so no way to do so monetarily.
Actually, you can help by testing the software you use and file the bugs you find. Testing could include usability, UI, spelling, and trying to break it by putting various inputs into forms, etc.
In addition, telling people about it helps too. Maybe do blog or community posts, etc.
And thank you for wanting to help, you’re a kind person!
