I think a click stream isn't necessary, but Kagi is not a good basis for the argument in my opinion. Kagi is a primarily meta search engine. The click stream exists on their source…

I was tempted not to respond, but honestly this comment makes me slightly angry. As someone who is young, and works on software this comment does not seem very worldly to me. Have …

I don't see any ads outside of the app store on Android (and obviously the web browser). Microsoft puts them in the start menu which seems very different to me (I would be very ang…

Well, I don't know what to say other than that: a) I want to import my bookmarks b) I can't enter any of the domains I care about as I mostly have obscure tastes due to the above t…

Slack still has .deb files you just need to scroll down and find the small button for it. https://slack.com/intl/en-gb/downloads/linux search for "Download .DEB app". Last I checke…

T-Mobile has open ports on IPv6 (at least as of a few months ago). I was curious, and tried hosting a web site from my phone, and it worked flawlessly (assuming you are willing to …

I was trying to learn more about the ranking algorithm that Alexandria uses, and I was a bit confused by the documentation on Github for it. Would I be correct in that it uses "Har…

Amy Klobuchar if I understand this page correctly (although there are 11 other cosponsors it says if you click the all information button on the page) https://www.congress.gov/bill…

I'm very curious to learn more about this as I thought it was easily possible to opt out of the overly aggressive defaults of GCC, Clang, and the like.

Minimum wage is closer, environmental standards are somewhat similar, and laws can be passed on a federal level. It is just as easy for workers to change states as businesses while…

I have never seen captchas from another CDN that I can recall. I believe that is partially responsible for people's opinions.

I felt a bit queasy reading that.

I agree, but keep in mind that children grow up in a society, and make friends in school. You are influencing their relationships by restricting their internet access.

I don't know what the paper used, but I like DiskUsage from F-Droid.

I did a quick study on an Epson Ecotank printer 3 or 4 years ago, and I found "random" colored pixels that were added (for example a single cyan dot in a large circle of pure cyan …

You don't seem to support the !ddg, and !duckduckgo bangs. See https://search.brave.com/search?q=!ddg+test nor do you support bangs in the middle of queries such as https://search.…

I believe that people (usually) choose to communicate with faces, but just as people can lie with words they can lie with faces.

Well clearly we can't remove analytics, and if we changed analytics to a different (faster) provider someone would have a cow... We could lower our image sizes, but let's be honest…

I think it makes them feel appreciated when others are thanked as they now feel that they are part of the group (who is being thanked). Their individual donation doesn't need much …
