Humble Bundle ebooks (lemmy.sdf.org)

Is there somewhere that regularly uploads the ebook bundles from Humble Bundle?

I am, and I've noticed one welcomed effect it has had in me.

I'll admit I had an unhealthy phone habit of mindlessly scrolling and Reddit nurtured this.

As much as I'm excited about Lemmy - the barriers I'm finding of finding content that appeases my desire to scroll has greatly reduced my phone usage. Smaller user base, inability (for me anyway) to find communities and content through the search etc.

Lemmy is just good enough for me not to go back to Reddit, but not matured enough to replace the addition.

Some serious rose tinted glasses looking back on history there! At what point in time are you thinking about? For most of history I'd have had fealty to some land owner. I'd say we have more freedom and opertunity to experience the world now than before.

You can still explore the planet for yourself, just because something has been experienced by someone before you shouldn't take too much away from your joy if experiencing it.

I've never heard about this. You should send an email to all the developers of the 3rd party Lemmy apps to let them know. Could be a good consideration to allow to disable this in accessibility features.

Even if we were able to live in complete harmony with the planet and not exhaust our resources we'd undoubtedly go extinct for one reason or another. I'm not necessarily talking about resources.

But yeah, what you've described is how we're existing at present anyway.

I disagree with this, I mean you can donate to the creator of Lemmy using crypto if you wanted.

It's cool though, it appears that this is a really unwelcome suggestion here ๐Ÿ˜…

[-] ori@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah you're taking sense. Although in the situation of the population dropping drastically to a core survivor population, you might find there to be less of a limit on resources.

[-] ori@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 1 year ago

Because ultimately if we don't leave this rock we go extinct. Guaranteed.

Yeah, I believe they are tax friendly to remote workers and you can get a visa to remain if you've got assets that generate โ‚ฌ7k income a year.

I'd say it's still not an easy task to get an EU passport. I'd definitely takes quite a commitment at least.

That mean that user AND server administrator will control user wallet.

Well, if this were the case I guess it's not a great idea at all!

I'm no authority on this subject. It's just the first instance of federation I read about before Limmey etc.

I believe there would be some integration from Limmey, to generate the keypair along with the user account. It could be up to 3rd party apps if they if they wanted to utilise this and allow for account management from the app. Or none at all and Lemmy could just allow for exporting your private key to use elsewhere.

As for why, I guess you don't have a great rationale. It just seems like a progression to me. If people are communicating with each other in this manner, why not allow for payment. A person could always share a public key, PayPal or bank details if they wished. This way would just be undoubtedly linked to the person you were considering paying.

[-] ori@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago

That's fair. Although I think it could be implemented without effecting your Lemmy experience. It would just allow people to send payment to a person's federated account. Collecting or transfering this payment could be done "off-app" through conventional wallet apps.

What do people think about incorporating a Stellar address that is unique to your federated account with your chosen insurance.

This would allow for people to send/receive stable coins such as circles USDC. I feel the stellar network would complement Lemmy or Mastodon quite well.
