  • There’s one near my house, and it has no mute button whatsoever. No buttons at all, in fact. You tap your card to the reader, then lift the pump of whichever variety you need, and that moment the ads start. With sound on full blast as well.

    I’ve left a negative google review and make sure to update it monthly so that it stays on top, and drive to another station quite a bit further off just to avoid this crapshoot.













  • poverty wages

    Citation needed.

    Across patreon, opencollective and librepay they make a combined total of recurring $3507.66 per month, plus undisclosed amounts in crypto and ko-fi donations.

    According to the post, less than $100 go towards hosting .ml, so that’s an even 1700 bucks (plus x) for each of the developers.

    They are budgeting in EUR, else I believe their origin country is undisclosed, meaning it could be double the national average (Kosovo, Montenegro, Greece); average (Italy, Spain, Portugal) or below average (France, Germany). Just to highlight a few, here’s a full list: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_European_countries_by_average_wage

    That’s of course under the assumption that they reside in countries that officially use the EUR and not merely use it as a common currency. In Bulgaria, Albania etc. they’d be quite a bit above national average as well (the source I quoted converts all domestic currencies to EUR).
