Yeah, I would-be been fine if they just added a listing that was actually an ad, but replacing actual results with no option to not click the tracking injected link was enough for me. Ignoring their shitcoin is fine, it’s not required to use their search. But I don’t take kindly to bullshit if it’s forced on me.

I used to, until they started changing links for actual results to have trackers built in. I couldn’t click on specific websites i was searching for without my adblock putting a stop to it. Asked them about it in their discord and they basically told me to turn off adblock. Dropped them like a sack of potatoes and spun up a SearXNG instance. Before that I thought about spinning up a presearch node. Glad I switched to SearXNG. It basically accomplished what I wanted from Presearch without the ads and crypto shitcoin.

If I had to switch to a new engine not run by me, I’d consider Qwant or maybe Kagi if paying for it is worth it. I’m old enough to be used to having stuff for free on the internet, doing it yourself to keep from having to pay for a service is a perfectly fine option for me.

Because HDMI predates DP. HDMI was initially just DVI-D with audio and encryption. That last part is what got the content producers to push the standard because piracy.

The only thing I’ve not been able to divest myself from Sony is HDMI. If I could buy a TV with a decent amount of DisplayPort and no HDMI, I’d be so happy. My level of distrust goes back to their rootkit on music CD scandal.

I’d be interested in the overlap here. Those that have regularly use a PSN account and those that wanted to play this game on PC only. I can’t imagine it’s much. I’m thinking the PC reviews are gonna bomb really hard because there isn’t an overlap

Not that it matters much for this outcome, but it’s a state owned oil company. It is run by Trinidad and Tobago. So replace CEO and directors with president/prime minister and parliament.

Censorship of words makes me not know which definition of regarded you are using.

Your terms are acceptable. I’ve taught my kids a lot about anatomy from butchering.

Thanks. This did the trick. Any chance you’ll make Lemmy redirect compatible with Voyager?

This is my latest example. !comicstrips@lemmy.world (https://lemm.ee/post/26313185) I ran across this post in Lemmy and basically got tired of trying to find a workaround that involved a bunch of steps to interact with the toot. I just wish Lemmy redirect worked with Voyager.

Remember when Nokia was king? Yup, lack of regulations then. I’m not saying it’s not a coincidence, but it certainly could be. I am glad to see Nokia’s resurgence in the infrastructure area in tech though.

I can, but there’s a phrase in talking about weather with Fahrenheit. When someone says the temp is going to be in the 70s all day, that accounts for the entire fluctuation from cooler mornings to hot afternoon. It’s the grouping of temps in a range by 10 degrees and that the graduations are set just enough apart that on normal days the temps usually stay within 10 degrees during the day and drops by another 10 degrees overnight. This makes the phrase “it’s going to be in the 70s all day” easy to understand especially when using my chart. You can usually bank on pleasant weather during the day and a need for long sleeves or a light jacket at night.

Fahrenheit ironically is the most base 10 like measurement for a non-SI measurement, at least when it comes to grouping temps by tens in relation to weather. Everywhere else I really do prefer Celsius.

No worries. Downvoting an unpopular opinion is one of the Internet’s greatest traditions. Don’t let google gaslight you into thinking that removing the display of downvotes on YouTube is a good thing either.

This might be the first time I’ve been told that more specificity in a measurement is bad, lol. I use both imperial and metric everyday. Cooking in the kitchen was my entry point as being an American. Calculating percentages for recipes is always easier on metric. Short distances when working on projects is easy enough too. The more graduations in millimeter wrenches over fractional inches was the main reason I wanted to switch in the first place. Which brings me to the problem I’ve always had with temperature. I’d rather have the extra graduations for weather, but am fine with Celsius everywhere else especially in applications that I measure temps close to water boiling for instance in filament temps for 3d printing or CPU GPU temp monitoring.

For Fahrenheit It’s the more graduations between degrees in a range that’s easy to tell comfortability.

If metric wanted to adopt a scale with more graduations that could be easily grouped to 10s, that’d be great. I don’t know why 0-100 was arbitrarily chosen to be the scale for water instead of 0-1000.

That’s the best. I went to a sporting event last year and parked a couple blocks from the arena. The cost to charge and park was less than parking at the closest parking garage.
