  • Got my Switch 2 early! Tears of the Kingdom is amazing on this thing :)

  • I stripped the exif data from the image... that's enough right?

    No, but seriously - I posted this to /r/gaming and the mods took it down in 15 minutes...

  • On behalf of my countrymen I can only apologise.

    I honestly dislike him as much as you and it's worrying that we're increasingly turning into another US.

    As others have mentioned though, the road tax rules (we pay very few tolls) have changed in the UK in April meaning it's now a lot more expensive to buy EVs than it has been in the past.

    I expect that if you looked at other manufacturers in the same time frame their sales would have increased a lot more than Tesla's.

  • I will be using wanktank going forward, maybe adjusting it to "yankwanktank" for the especially egregious American monstrosities.

  • Kagi search engine now has a Fediverse search option.

    Jump

  • They're all based on others indexes to be honest so there isn't really one.

    DuckDuckGo is Bing, Startpage is Google, Kagi is seemingly a mishmash of a bunch of search engines (including the Russian owned Yandex) Brave is independent but owned and run by assholes so that isn't much better.

    Personally I like Kagi enough and it's independent enough for me to pay for it.

  • Still uses Google as an index so you're just giving them money indirectly.

  • Are you talking about the bookmarks bar?

    If so, I had to use “customise toolbar” to drag it onto the space.

  • Hah! It’s funny because it’s true!

  • Why do steaming services think they have a captive audience and I'm not going to ditch all of them with the crazy influx of annoying ads?

    Jump

  • Because the “you wouldn’t steal a car” nonsense scares a lot of people off

    Because some people want to support the creators of content but digital downloads from iTunes or whatever are more expensive than getting a month of a streaming service

    Because there is a level of convenience of having thousands of hours of content at your fingertips without having to store content locally or finding it on a “dodgy” website. Setting up torrents / usenet is more work than giving someone your credit card number

    Because a lot of people don’t know where to find content and if they did they don’t know the difference between a 480p avi vs a 2160p HDR DV MKV and get confused with torrents and file formats and how to get them on their TV.

    Because - at the moment - the ads aren’t that bad, I got one ad at the start and one episode in the middle of an episode of Gen V - obviously they’ll add more until it’s as bad as cable but they’re not there yet.

  • YSK: It's possible to get search results from Google without the annoying 'AI' answers at the top

  • I guess YMMV, I just tried a few places around me (UK) and it found them all. You can also defiantly tap on a place to select it.

    Did you try it recently or a while ago? I know it was pretty woeful when it came out but it’s improved a whole lot over the years.

  • I wish Kagi wasn’t as expensive as it is.

    If it was $5 a month for unlimited searches I would be all over it but 300 searches is too few and $10 is too much money.

  • Pfttt… at least with DDG you can turn any of that stuff off with a button in a UI rather than having to make a new bookmark or fuck around with your browsers search engine.

    You can even turn the ads off if you want.

    Also, Apple Maps is totally fine, it’s not overloaded with ads like Google Maps is and it basically always finds the place I search for.

  • We had some from Lidl that broke on the way out of the shop! I wouldn’t trust most of them for 3 trips, let alone a lifetime of them.

  • I don’t drive every time I go to the shops, plus I also have to remember to put them back once I get my shopping inside.

  • The plastic ones (here in the UK at least) also split and fall apart, they’re better than the “standard” ones but they don’t usually last that much longer.

    Also I have a million of them because I always forget to bring them.

  • Nice! With the best will in the world I always forget my standard shopping bags and I feel that the “bags for life” just replace one thin and crap lump of plastic for an overly engineered one.
