Or, for religious/ritual purposes.

Any mineral that you can think of, easier to get in space, close to their home star than here.

If someone has tech to do interstellar trips in a reasonable time, we already lost any war against them.

The good news is, they probably don't need anything that we have, so the list of reasons to engage in war is kinda limited. Yay!

About communication, they would have an advantage understanding us, we are broadcasting into space for more than a century with radio signals carrying content of many of our languages.

The movie Arrival does an quite OK job showing how could be an effort to bridge the communication gap with aliens (besides the fiction), and is a good movie as well.

What is a skinwalker?

Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas, and it's the main character of Titan's atmosphere, and still, Titan is extremely cold. (And Titan is closer to the sun then TNOs)

So I'm inclined to say that greenhouse-effect alone would not be enough to keep TNOs warm like Earth.

Does banking apps work on your cellphone?

LLMs are great for rubberducking, to do pre-reviews, and sometimes code boilerplate (under supervision).

Nothing more IMHO

It uses the same philosophy of cargo.toml files in Rust projects, where you have all dependencies and versions listed. It's quite fast, and you can use it to install python cli tools without change your base installation. It's the best of venv and pipx and more, IMHO.

Have you heard about uv? I'm loving it.

TBH, if donating to the devs feels like betraying your morals and values, using the project should feel wrong as well.

There is no problem using Lemmy without donating.

Nobody will stop you, it's just extremely convenient to be so against their views and at the same time benefit from it.

If the devs wanted donations they probably shouldn't have pissed everyone off.

So, for their work to be worth being paid, they should not hurt your feelings, and as they did, you are entitled to use their work for free until it dies for lack of resources? That's a very strange take.

They are offering up their own labor for free and there is no obligation for me to donate.

True! Let the project die! ... Right?

I don't like the pressure put on my the community to donate just for the sake of donating.

You know that's not "for the sake of donating", you just don't want to donate for someone with a political view different from yours, but want to keep benefiting from it. It's very hypocritical on your part.

I don't mind giving money but it has to be earned. I don't give free lunch.

You mind if they think differently from you.

I can not in good conscious support the Lemmy devs.

But can benefit from their work... Until you can't because the project will die if they start to think and act like you.

That doesn't mean I have to stop using Lemmy.

True. Aren't we lucky that the tankies are working for the benefit of the community instead of looking for profit?

2500 eur to work as a developer in a project this size, full of ungrateful users. These guys are acting as saints, I would totally consider pausing/abandoning it if my basic needs were not met.
