No, and I'm not a guy. 👍
Cheers!
I think that's interesting!
As someone who works in retail, the thing that pisses me off frankly isn't so much the stupid questions (though yes those are annoying af), it's the fact that most of the time customers don't even attempt to figure it out before asking. A question pops into their head and they immediately ask someone. Maybe they should try to use that brain inside of their head before bothering a severely underpaid & overworked retail worker who can barely afford food on the table before asking such an inane question.
Stupid questions don't bother me as much when I can be assured they who are asking them at least made an attempt to figure it out on their own first.
It also doesn't help when I'm asked the same question fifteen times in a single shift. (No, I'm not exaggerating.)
Some asshole downvoted you, so I gave you an upvote because there's nothing wrong with admitting you don't know something. Welcome to today's 10 000! ^_^
As for your question, a nonprofit cannot make profit and has to work toward a societal good, while a not-for-profit also cannot make profit but is not bound to that obligation.
From this article:
While all types of nonprofit organizations share the common goal of not pursuing profits, their legal and operational characteristics can differ:
Mission: Nonprofit organizations are required to benefit the public or advance a social cause. Not-for-profit organizations, or “other nonprofits” as the IRS deems them, can also benefit the public or they may focus solely on benefiting their members.
Scale: Nonprofits are typically larger organizations that aim to fulfill a larger need, such as the American Red Cross, while not-for-profits (or “other nonprofits”) are often smaller, serving only their members, such as a social club.\
Revenue Sources: The revenue of a nonprofit organization primarily comes from donations, grants and memberships. The revenue of a not-for-profit organization (e.g., a social welfare organization, civic league, social club, labor organization, veterans’ club or business league) is mostly derived from sales and membership dues.\
Tax-Exempt Status: Nonprofits are often granted tax-exempt status under section 501(c)(3), while not-for-profits (or “other nonprofits” as the IRS calls them) can be tax-exempt under other 501(c) sections.
This is, perhaps to needless to say, a US-specific distinction and may be different or even nonexistent in other countries. :)

No problem! ^_^
Haha, no worries. Glad I could help! ^_^
It's recommended to use CoMaps as that is the more-ethical successor to Organic Maps. (If you're not aware, there was a problem with Organic Maps being very...non-transparent should I say, and people got fed up with it and forked the project with the intent of establishing a successor app but that was more dedicated to transparency in decision-making.
company or organization that's not comically evil
In a capitalist system? Good luck with that.
A nonprofit organization, sure, but definitely not a company or a not-for-profit organization.
Yeah this was I think a few months ago so they very well might have fixed that issue. Haha.
Lol, I like that last sentence.
Hehe.
Not necessarily.
I've had a couple instances where a game would run in Wine but not in Proton or even GE-Proton.
It was Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun. Lol. In Proton (or GE-Proton), the game would run but it wouldn't save games, not even autosaves. But I played it using Wine and it worked totally fine.
My point it it's very rare but it can happen.
(I just thought of this and knew I had to make it. Spent the last 20 minutes on it. Hope you like it!)
Note: The attached image is a screenshot of page 31 of Dr. Charles Severance's book, Python for Everybody: Exploring Data Using Python 3 (2024-01-01 Revision).
I thought = was a mathematical operator, not a logical operator; why does Python use
>= instead of >==, or
<= instead of <==, or
!= instead of !==?
Thanks in advance for any clarification. I would have posted this in the help forums of FreeCodeCamp, but I wasn't sure if this question was too.......unspecified(?) for that domain.
Cheers!
Edit: I think I get it now! Thanks so much to everyone for helping, and @FizzyOrange@programming.dev and @itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone in particular! ^_^
Howdy, y'all. :)
So, within the last couple of days or so, I've been having this problem where if I click on the notification bell, then the chain icon next to a shown reply, then click "Show context" above the horizontal rule (see screenshot), it doesn't proceed to load the context. Rather, it just reloads the same page.
The strange thing is this doesn't happen with every notification. Another notification I had was from here on the Blahaj Lemmy instance, and that worked fine. Maybe it's a thing to do with federation protocols? Anyway, I'm no expert. I just thought I'd ask. :)
Cheers.
I'm not your fwiend, buddy!
