TIL about SearXNG -- search like the old days where you get relevant results instead of a page half full of weird nonsense

Jump

  • The github page for websurfx says its a open source alternative to searx, and I never used searx before so I wasn't aware of it being OSS but sorry for being your ocean of ignorance you can't do anything about. Next time I won't share anything to not offend.

    • What operating system and tools should a beginner use to learn programming?

  • I also liked Harvards course. I got to like chapter 8 then I switched to start learning Rust because I liked it more than Python.

    • What NAS to get for running plex and is there anything I should know?

    • The Lack of Compensation in Open Source Software is Unsustainable

    Jump

  • Right, there's plenty of people also not getting paid anything for their work. This "You shouldn't care about money" feels like a straw man argument to OP's argument which I think could also be said as "OSS isn't sustainable unless everyone is paid a sustainable amount".

    It's just all around frustrating. It has that same energy as "You criticize the system yet you're a part of it" example. For example, I wont be able to show this thread to my landlord when rent is due saying, "You shouldn't care about money, I'm an OSS dev so I dont"

    So in closing, I guess I wish everyone had a UBI to be sustainable and then yeah OSS itself could be sustainable as a hobby project.

    • What is the best distro for gaming?

    Jump

  • This is my recommended gaming distro, its actually works from my experience unlike the 3 different arch based distros I tried.

  • It depends on the person and their experience obviously, but for me, trying Linux back in 2020 felt like when I was new to computers in general and was poking around and learning Windows XP for the first time. It was fun seeing all the different settings options and features that were new to me.

    • A good fantasy book? you know, wizards, dragons, princesses, that kind of stuff
