Just speed. Share an article to pocket and its saved...

That showcase was genuinely great. I'm not a usual Xbox fan but I do subscribe to gamepass from time to time on my PC.

Doom - The dark ages looks incredible

Considering this also. Currently we're all on my google one plan, however I want to move away.

Any tips?

It obfuscates the user each time you use it and doesn't log any info?

So while the query is maybe logged on chatgpts side for their own usage. Hopefully they shouldn't be able to build a profile against you.

It wouldn't be so bad if i could just launch the app and type a query...

Duck duck go have just launched an AI chatbot that acts as a middle man between the LLMs to try protect your privacy. duckduckgo.com/chat

Learn bangs!

95% of my searches, DDG is fine and I've learnt where it might struggle and I just end the search with !g

This then searches Google, yeah I'm still using Google for 5% of my searches but it's better than 100%.

Or use !start to search startpage.

I've degoogled apart from:

• Google photos - I have shared storage with my family and I really can't be doing with sorting out the mess when I cancel my 200GB subscription. I do however back all photos up to my server.
• Pixel phone - I try not use any Google apps/search but the phones are updated regularly and are reasonably good value for money. Other brands have the Google tracking with the OEM tracking on top.

I need to start doing this more. I just forget

I installed Linux mint on my Framework laptop because fuck windows.

I had to move back to windows, it didn't feel ready and couldn't get it working easily how I like.

Heres some of the issues(any pointers would be great)

• 120hz just wouldn't work on one monitor, it detects it but won't apply. (Works fine in W10 and Ubuntu).
• Scrolling on the touchpad is unbelievably fast and makes it unusable.
• Fractional scaling is a joke, my laptop screen needs around 125% but everything becomes a blurred mess.
• The mouse is a bit jittery and can't explain why (usually using a Logitech gaming mouse when docked).
• Governor cannot be different on battery and AC. Defaults to max turbo.
• Fingerprint sensor doesn't work (works fine on Ubuntu and w10).
• Unsure how to get hardware accelerated disk encryption working?

Some stuff is better but a combination of these just brings me back to windows. It just loads and works?

Is one of the options "because I fucking told you to"

Didn't it say "launched"? So you can continue to sell an older design. The same reason apple are selling the iPhone 14 still without issues.

No, I can't use my yubikeys in fennec or Mull.

Embarrassing they launched it and released a statement before release date saying issues will be patched at a later date.

Was genuinely excited for this months ago...

I used to enjoy Lostprophets

Does some of the payouts need normalising? Some of the bigger content creators make absolutely bank for hardly doing anything with little overheads.

Does it? It's a fantastic service that works really well, whether it's worth the price or privacy is a slightly different conversation

Maybe start by not murdering babies or people at a festival?

Yeah but that's slower and not using the sites specific search

I've started using Duckduckgo, less specifically for the search and more for the bangs. Fed up of search surfacing sites they care about. I can now quickly search wikipedia with !w etc.
