This has historically worked because Bing (from which DDG draws results) previously indexed Reddit. What indications do we have that it will work after this change? As I read the articles, I thought it wouldn't work going forward.

Also, I will say because Brave search has such a small market share that’s probably not going to help Google’s case much.

I'd venture a guess that Brave is still allowed to search Reddit just as a legal fig leaf for Google's arguments with regulators.

You know you crossed the line when you attack someone and the exes pipe up to say you're wrong.

This bears repeating more: VW already knew how to make good driver controls. Their buttons and switches were carefully and thoughtfully designed for many years. The decision to throw in touch-screen buttons is either chasing a fad or outright dangerous cost-cutting. Companies like VW deserve the flak because they knew better, and did it anyway.

I don't have much patience for officials who clutch at pearls over ebike fires but ignore hundreds of car deaths each year. Both are problems, but the amount of headlines dedicated to the former is out of whack.

(Dark was so good, I do appreciate the risks the old Netflix took on some programming, even if the company is busy burning that goodwill now.)

Don't tell me you'll resign, just do it already.

Anger and outrage. Extremism lives on outrage, it wilts if it doesn't have pissed off people to constantly feed it.

It looks quite usable, to be honest. I would have loved to use it back then.

Shariki and Bejeweled would like a word.

Pure poetry from AndyJHawk:

Like the Honda e before it, it’s a vehicle too tiny for America’s truck-shaped digestive system.

I really liked Lara Croft GO. It's better than Hitman GO or other GO games.

I don't play Stardew Valley that often or that much, but what I do play is delightful. It's a pretty versatile game.

A frustratingly empty article. Why are they struggling to "make ends meet"? What ends? If it's housing, this is a housing story. If it's high auto loan debt, that's a mother matter. If it's not housing and it's accrued consumer debt, that's a different matter.

They never say, so there isn't much to conclude from this piece.

I'll have to give that one a try!

With a 2025 release, is may not even come out for Switch, it may release on Switch 2/successor.

Pax Imperia: Eminent Domain. Quite a learning curve, but I loved the different ways you can win (conquest, trade, black ops) and how much you could customize your ships or pick unique races with tolerances for different planets.

Game strategy advice for a 30+ year old game? I love this so much, you guys are awesome.

omg YES. Nothing I have found since then has quite scratched the same itch of flying around with a friend on some random dude's server. So much fun!

Here's some background on the tensions and policies that have led to anti-avocado militias in some regions of Mexico:
