    Not perfect, you'd probably want to change away from Google for example, and Microsoft/Google seem to get your IP address or location along with the search, to get relevant results. Still seems leagues better than Google or Bing directly, and the issue seems to mostly be Google/Microsoft getting data, rather than Ecosia collecting data for itself.

  • "In September 2025 a scandal emerged concerning Mandelson's association with the convicted child sex offender and financier Jeffrey Epstein, which had been revealed in 2019. Following reports that Mandelson had continued his friendship with Epstein after his 2008 conviction, he was dismissed as ambassador by Starmer.[4] In February 2026, there were further reports that Mandelson and his husband had received payments from Epstein, and that in 2009 and 2010, Mandelson allegedly passed sensitive government information to Epstein. Mandelson resigned from the Labour Party and from the House of Lords, and the Metropolitan Police began a criminal investigation into alleged misconduct in a public office.[5][6][7] "

    This, I think?

  • Is there a 100% free way to pirate as a newcomer?

    Jump

  • Go to the piracy Wiki, there's a bunch of websites where you can do direct downloads. That way you won't have to torrent, and therefore don't have to worry about your ISP looking and complaining about that unencrypted torrent traffic.

  • ICE is as American as Apple Pie

    Jump

  • We had open borders with no restriction on immigration for like the first 100 years, the first laws restricting immigration were because of anti-Chinese racism in the late 1800s.

  • ‘Ripping’ Clips for YouTube Reaction Videos can Violate the DMCA, Court Rules * TorrentFreak

    Jump

  • "the defendant and many others have used screen recording to copy content. "

    Ah, the defense pointed out this exact same thing. This isn't a final ruling, we'll see what the judge thinks about screen recording.

  • ‘Ripping’ Clips for YouTube Reaction Videos can Violate the DMCA, Court Rules * TorrentFreak

    Jump

  • Does screen recording count as circumvention with 3rd party tools? It make take a while longer, especially for high quality videos that chop up the content, but YouTube reactors could be safe.

    And how do they prove that it was ripped, and not just screen recorded? It wouldn't look different, right?

  • Racism is very American, ICE is very racist, but ICE is also quite new. We did fine without them for more than 200 years.

  • Why is Debian always left out of the distro recommendations?

    Jump

  • Stuff based on Debian, like Mint or whatnot, generally also "just works" just like Debian would, while also having more up to date software with their own repositories, and more user friendly software to automatically do stuff with GUI's.

  • Why is Debian always left out of the distro recommendations?

    Jump

  • It's not user-oriented the way the distros based on it are. apt is mediocre and slow compared to a lot of other distros package managers.

    The out of date software is really important for new users for one big reason, and that's hardware compatibility. Arch Linux, especially with AUR DKMS, can work with basically anything supported by Linux. Debian will struggle with anything sorta new. Having on old kernel, like Debian does, is one of the worst things a distro can do, for performance, for compatibility, and more.

    Their software is also actually super duper out of date, too. To the point where KDE on Debian and Kubuntu is several versions out of being supported. A lot of software developers are sick of people reporting fixed issues because the user is using Debian, so they tell them to use a more up to date distro.

  • China's top universities are opening to foreign students. That's a big problem for US schools.

    Jump

  • Most universities have cut their budgets this year. A lot of Small Private Colleges are closing, merging, or otherwise not doing too hot.

    Big universities with massive endowments will be fine, but there's a lot more colleges than that.

    Expenses increasing at a higher rate than revenue

  • MEGA file-sharing site open letter to Hollywood from founder Kim Dotcom

    Jump

  • Very interesting that he points out that a guy is Jewish, does not give good vibes. Ofc most of the things he's done don't give me good vibes either.

    Anyway, I can't remember the last time I've used Mega, for anything. None of the cool sites use them, afaik. There's like a million better sites now, and the best stuff is in Russia, since they barely touch piracy sites. it's so often in a piracy sites lifecycle for them to start on a normal tld, get banned, move to a weird tld, get banned, then move to a cool foreign countries tld.

  • Do you use Arch btw? Best Arch distro?

    Jump

  • Also, Manjaro bad. Cachy, EndeavourOS etc. are fine.

  • Do you use Arch btw? Best Arch distro?

    Jump

  • I use Arch btw. The best Arch distro is just normal Arch linux. If you really want stuff from other "Arch distros", you can add their repos or customize your configs. There's nothing you can do in an Arch distro you can't do with Arch itself.

  • Haha that's really cool, funny number man

  • it might technically be gatekeeping, but it's not arbitrary, or even a very high bar. Science just involves doing the scientific method, which anyone, even the guy in the comic, can do. What he's actually doing, and what a lot of "pop science" stuff is, is trivia. Trivia is awesome, but not really science.

    Calling science loser shit is a bold stance. Aren't you a fellow believer and practitioner in the "immortal science"?
