> I trust my bank to hold my money because there are legal protections in place to protect against bad behavior. I can sue them if they violate the laws that protect me.

I don't think it would be that easy in third-world country or dictatorial government or country in wars

[thesuperbigfrog → vienarr]

Agreed. Legal protections only work where rule of law works.

On: Is It Pokemon or Big Data?

[vienarr]

I got 74%. I never knew name from those 2 category can be very similar like horsesea/seahorse

[fireattack → vienarr]

I mean seahorse is actually easy. I knew it can't be Pokemon because it's a real animal.

so its like onlyfans but for open source community

Idk why bother when they could literally just use OF

[timpattinson → 67868018]

because the aforementioned website is known almost exclusively for porn.

Some, maybe most, people would be fine with it, nothing wrong with it really.

But if you're trying to earn a living why cut yourself off from the 50% of people that wouldn't subscribe due to the site name only.

[magicalhippo → timpattinson]

Besides the association, which one might or might not be fine with, I'd worry that being porn-centric would put OF at risk of credit card companies not wanting to work with them, similar to what PornHub faced recently.

[langitbiru → 67868018]

OF is blocked in my country.

[rk06 → 67868018]

the main thing is that onlysponsers does not take a cut and it is integrated with github sponsers for payment and sponsorship tiers

[KaoruAoiShiho → 67868018]

OF has high fees afaik.

I thought it was about improving terminal prompts with a new space daemon. Do we need help?

my browser shown an CORS related error, its weird

[ATsch → vienarr]

CORS errors are false positives for a large amount of causes. For example, if loading a website causes an 502 or other error, that might not set the required CORS header, thus making it illegal for javascript to access the response in a number of ways.

On: PayPal to allow cryptocurrency buying, selling and...

[vienarr]

“We are working with central banks and thinking of all forms of digital currencies and how PayPal can play a role,”

does that mean a 'centralized' entity will try to facilitate payment based on 'decentralized' currency

wow
