At least on Pro / Enterprise / Education edition there are no ads. Maybe I have disabled them, no idea. It could be that this is a thing in Home edition that cannot be easily disabled, have never used Home edition in my life to be honest.

Recall is an optional feature that will run on specific CPUs and it will be local unless something recently changed. Would I use it even if I could? No, I don’t see a need, but it probably will be useful to many.

It is almost the same as Windows 8 underneath. W11 for almost everyone should feel just like a new skin with couple more features. There are some annoyances, but I have not seen anything yet that I would consider dealbreaking.

You can still read news, no need to be uninformed.

Is there a reason to think there will be no trial and this guy by some reason will end up in some CIA black site without trial?

I just find it interesting that someone who has absolutely no trust in authorities does not have a theory that court can be influenced by the same authorities.

If you will not trust authorities how do you expect them to prove it to you?

Not just CEO. I would say he might have known even less of procedures in detail than middle management. You wouldn’t pardon all Nazis just because Hitler was on top, would you? If what you do willingly is non-ethical even if you don’t call the shots, you are just as bad.

Is anyone else besides China doing this? Cannot really call it international norm if 1 country is doing this.

Agree on this except I have doubts that this statement is true

It is insulting that a Chinese run social media platform provides more freedom of speech online than its US competitors.

Aren’t we primarily ok with this guy being assassinated because he was the face of a terrible company not because he was CEO in general? If someone from middle management or even low level worker who personally denied this guy′s insurance claim would have been assasinated, would we suddenly feel sorry?

Also remember that people like surgeons or dentists also can be considered ″filthy rich″ by your average Joe standards.

Check out WhoSampled. It’s the largest resource regarding samples/covers.

Thanks for clarification and great that this is not included in project, but couldn’t someone change the server side code and somehow see more info that goes through?

I know there is that HTML check in https://searx.space/ to see if search interface code is not heavily modified, but on server side anything could go on.

If requests are encrypted in a way that searxng does not see contents then it probably is not trivial to do, but there always is a possibility something clever could be done.

Aren’t all search queries available to whoever hosts an instance? In my eyes this is much worse to privacy and a much bigger risk unless you really know who is behind your chosen instance. I would trust some a company a bit more with safeguarding this information so it does not leak to some random guy.

From article

Reddit challenged its designation on the basis that it is mostly a text-based discussion platform, and links to videos uploaded elsewhere on the internet should not be factored in. The Irish regulator counter-argued that the audio-visual content on the platform is extensive, and pointed to its enormous reach, with 73 million daily users.

Could not find any post statistics, but they probably are correct and percentage wise uploaded videos should be at the bottom, but total count probably is too large to be simply disregarded. Reddit probably has more videos than Vimeo which is purely video based. And if Reddit would be in the clear then so should be Twitter and Facebook since those too are primarily text based.

Because most people did not use 3rd party apps and do not care about site′s management. Why move to someplace else if everything works great where you already are.

Keepass2Android supports many cloud options including Nextcloud and OwnCloud so it sync with storage directly. At least with Dropbox it works like a charm.

It should fix system files that are not in expected state (I assume corruption, missing, wrong permissions etc.). Maybe it was more useful in the past, but after trying it couple times around 8 years ago and never seeing any benefit, I have never thought of using it since.

My colleague said it fixed some random issue once or twice after he was out of ideas.

If system is truly messed up, it’s often faster and more reliable to just reinstall it, especially if you do not have much custom config.

Any reason why Firefox is not under Browser section?

I would personally also add original KeePass, Notepad++ and ShareX (Maybe also Greenshot). These are Windows only, but great pieces of software.

While it sounds ridiculous, there is a reasoning for this even nowadays:

Any periodic activity with a rate faster than one minute incurs the scrutiny of the Windows performance team, because periodic activity prevents the CPU from entering a low-power state. Updating the seconds in the taskbar clock is not essential to the user interface, unlike telling the user where their typing is going to go, or making sure a video plays smoothly. And the recommendation is that inessential periodic timers have a minimum period of one minute, and they should enable timer coalescing to minimize system wake-ups.

Found 1 test that seems to confirm battery life is slightly worse (2%) with seconds enabled. But this is true only when nothing is going on on screen. If you would actually work on PC, I imagine difference would be practically nonexistent.

All that said, I use seconds on my private and work PC. Was pissed when MS initially removed this as an option.

It’s basically this when you see that sticker.
