The only issue you have left with BAT is user education, got it. So thankfully the tech is solid. Now just UX polishing and onboarding. Personally, I think you're just being obtuse…

Bing and thus DDG's index really isn't that good. Is Microsoft an underdog now? Why do you consider them any better than Google, especially after the "tank man" fiasco? I don't see…

DDG just uses Bing results. This solution is completely independent. You may ask why that's needed, just recently DDG was censoring the "tank man" photo on the anniversary of Tiana…

Trying to spin a strict definition of propaganda to include all propagation of information is disingenuous, regardless of where the original word came from. And even then you're wr…

You know exactly what you're doing. It wasn't a big deal then, and it shouldn't be a big deal now. It's cancel culture and you're participating in it. This is an amazing release an…

Yes lets all grab pitchforks and chase him out of town because of his religious beliefs. So sick of leftists and your constant attacks in the name of diversity. Go find a hobby, yo…

Pretty overblown, been WFH in Texas for 8 years now, the big freeze was the only time we had a power outage, and the only time in my life in Texas we had ice for more than 3 days f…

Our homes are usually very well insulated to keep our cool air in, we also don't usually have multi-stories, just a long ranch home that's easier to cool. What you saw mentioned du…

People are paying for the resource, they should be able to use the resource. If there's not enough resource then the supplier should not sell the resource. No need to shame people …

Source? Everything I've seen says 1 foot rollout is industry standard.

You don't see how acceleration is a relevant metric for a car? Yes, there are other metrics that are important for electric cars such as range and safety, and Tesla leads those met…

Not a great analogy. Table saws try to prevent you from cutting your finger with flesh-detection saw stops. Wouldn't hurt emacs to change the default keymap, just like it didn't hu…

His categories are false. You think all the farmers that don't have an education are the same ones that choose the brand based on status? No, education is generational. Most younge…

An anecdote is not a simplified model. They were stereotypes. He shoved "uneducated farmers" into the same group of people that idolized John Deere for the brand alone, but did not…

Try sitting in a Kubota for 12 hours vs a JD. Your ass will be able to tell a difference. At this point it's better to buy a Kubota to avoid the lock-in, but JD is still far superi…

> 'Likely barely passed high school due to a complete lack of effort, because they were going to be farmers and school, "couldn't teach them nothin." > The problem with these indiv…

The tone of your comment changed dramatically in this reply. You didn't have to say hick, you implied it with your uneducated rant. You simply don't understand why they want a John…

Wow. What an incredibly offensive comment. I love how HN understands the right to repair when it comes to their gadgets, but when it comes to tractors it's probably because the far…

They're not limiting any student from talking about it, just it from being taught, because it's indoctrinating Marxist bullshit. No different than them trying to teach Creationism.…

Wanting secure voting is not restricting it. Fighting for rights of the unborn is not a bad thing when you believe they are alive at a certain point before birth (some people are f…

Others do like to travel and be able to work without their battery dying within a couple hours. If you like wasting your battery that's fine, but not the typical use case for someo…

Many macbook developers do care if it's a native app or a battery draining chrome embedded app. Kinda defeats the purpose of having a specialized CPU, OS & software to optimize bat…

So is the Uighur genocide, lets be angry about it all. The difference is, the Uighurs only crime is being ethnic, there are other things at play with incarceration numbers. All rac…

Because they were terrorists, we didn't hold 3 million of them in gitmo simply because they were ethnic minorities. Orders of magnitudes in difference. Holding a few dozen suspecte…
