  • So if any of these suits succeed that should mean that we’re gonna see more lawsuits suing companies for harming kids actual health right?

  • They talk about this in the documentary Behind the Curve. Pretty much exactly what you said here

  • Social media has always excluded forum like sites. It most definitely does not include anonymous sites. Social media has a strict definition about having connections to people, none of which Reddit nor lemmy has. Reddit technically added followers, but you cannot see nor interact with them, that’s not social media, that’s an email list. If lemmy is social media then so is every single comment section on every news site ever.

  • I'm absolutely terrible at nginx. Can you share the config you used for your hosted version?

  • well it's called Thief. They're stealing the function and making it look like they wrote it. hence max1.

  • SearXNG

    that's awesome. Is the quality good? I'm really loving Kagi, but I love OSS stuff so might consider this. Maintenance is also an issue. I'm tired of maintaining things. I've got my own unraid server, pihole, etc and I'm not in the mood for adding more stuff.

  • you should try using it. Seriously. I thought the same as you, "why are all these people plugging kagi so hard". Well, I literally started using it 3 months ago and I've only used Google search 3 times since then and not a single one of those times did Google succeed at the search I needed either. Google was so fucking bad that I essentially was forced to make a change, and I'd tried DDG like 2 years ago and hated it, I tried Bing and hated it.

    I fucking love not being tracked, not worrying about being the product. I can search what I want without fear of being watched. It's fantastic. And it's fucking better than Google. God, google has gotten so bad I literally had trouble doing my job some days. No more of that bullshit.

  • I am not sure. It might just be best to try. Federation should be very quick these days so if you're not seeing something in a minute or two then something is most likely wrong.

  • They’re setting a variable to a function. Just use the original function. All thief does is obfuscate for literally no gain except character count.

  • Kagi is probably the paid one you have seen but it’s not open source. And it’s way better results. I make maybe 1 extra search for every 30 searches now compared to google where it was getting up to 3-5 extra searches every time I did a single search. Not sure of a better metric other than that.

  • I have. It’s pretty good. I still use Firefox for most stuff, and like 5% of sites that I visit break in Orion, but other than that it’s very clean and easy. I like the side tabs, but it doesn’t completely replace Firefox for me yet. Seems close though!!!

  • Can you message me in a few days about this? I’m out of town and won’t have time to look into it for a least a few days but I really don’t like trackers and I’m not sure why programming.dev would have any trackers cuz I most definitely didn’t add them. (I run Firefox with ublock matrix, several other tracker prevention mechanisms including Firefox’s built in fingerprinting blocking, sometimes I switch to Orion which also has good tracking blocking).

  • Haha there’s like 10 outages a day 😂 most people just don’t notice.

    Not sure outage is the right word though, it’s that our status.programming.dev provider (pulsetic) reports an outage. Hyperping also reports several a day. It’s usually just a 500 so something is happening but I’m not sure what.

  • Oh that’s a good idea lol.

  • Dibbs

    Jump
  • Thanks. Clearly I don’t have one 😂

  • You don’t have to give a bottle of bleach. The point is that most household chemicals have hardly any warnings on them at all and the ones they do have are written in tiny text on the back. And no, most household chemicals do not have locking bottles. Sure things like bleach do, but you purposefully chose one to try and fit your narrative. Turns out, bleach was the number one household chemical to injure children in 2006! https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20679298/

    Weird.

    Just from the CPSC’s own data, they estimate 66,600 injuries a year just for children under five years old. https://www.cpsc.gov/s3fs-public/AnnualReportonPediatricPoisoningFatalitiesandInjuries_January2022.pdf

    Note that bleach is number five now, rather than number one, behind:

    1. Blood pressure medications
    2. Acetaminophen
    3. Antidepressants
    4. Dietary supplements

    https://www.cpsc.gov/Newsroom/News-Releases/2023/CPSC-Report-Finds-37-Percent-Spike-in-Child-Poisoning-Deaths-in-2021

    Let’s look at another report which states that ~50% of the magnet injuries come from products marketed to children, not these magnets made for adults. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6125079/

    Huh, weird that the CPSC makes no mention of this when they make quite a few claims about magnets in their announcement of a complete ban https://www.cpsc.gov/Newsroom/News-Releases/2022/CPSC-Approves-New-Federal-Safety-Standard-for-Magnets-to-Prevent-Deaths-and-Serious-Injuries-from-High-Powered-Magnet-Ingestion last year.

    It’s incredibly clear that the CPSC doesn’t actually care about the facts and someone in the magnet industry pissed them of else they’d be spending their time trying to fix the actual things that are killing children, like firearms.

    Just to end this post; the zen magnet warnings covered every inch of the packaging, you opened the box and there were more warning, you opened the bag in the box and there were even more warnings. There were permanent warnings in bright red text that couldn’t be removed from the box. This was more warning than any other product on the market and yet zen magnets have been completely banned, while bleach is still sold at your local grocery store with no ID necessary. Here’s a picture of one of the warnings, sorry I couldn’t find a video showing all the warnings, it’s been lost to time.

    Anyway, the CPSC clearly doesn’t care about actual child deaths and injuries, as it didn’t do anything to even slow the rate of injuries or deaths and yet completely banned an entire industry just for pissing them off. I’ve posted all the proof straight from the CPSC above if you don’t believe that statement.

  • And a dodge challenger, Chevy Camaro, all of the Nissan Z series and all of the skyline series, the delorean dmc-12, most mustangs, Acura nsx, Subaru wrx sti, the list is literally hundreds of cars long.

    All of these cars are definitely too much car for that dude I can guarantee it.

  • Same talking points the CPSC used to run ZenMagnets out of business. Guns aren’t too dangerous to keep around kids, but magnets with the boxes absolutely *plastered * with warnings are. No joke, my zen magnets had over ten warnings on each box. All in bright red letters.

    And if you go look at the actual evidence you’re gonna see that household chemicals cause way more damage and death than these magnets ever will. I have no clue who has it out for these magnets but they’re absolutely destroying a great stress reliever for what amounts to nothing.
