  • But the value of these shells will fall

  • It's a gift link?

    Maybe your add-ins 'cleaned' the link somehow, but if you use the full one you can read the article.

  • But what about the gills, shouldn't they be inside the gas mask too?

  • From a quick search: there haven't been conclusive studies, but orcas can as old as 30 or 40.

    So, given that "dog years" are essentially the life span of a human divided by the life span of a dog, "orca years" would be twice or thrice that of a human.

  • The manufacturer can also lock the bootloader, but carriers in the US are a special kind of fucky.

  • Permanently Deleted

  • I believe some sort of leader of their country happened to visit another, but that's just a hunch

  • Where have you heard about that?

    I can think of a counter example in how Netflix is boasting about the revenue of its cheaper ad tier.

  • The Mitsubishi Colt is now a rebadged Renault Clio

    Huh. They're not very common here; when I saw one driving yesterday I was wondering why it reminded me so much of Renault.

  • Lindsay Nikole is also a great biology/evolution channel I haven't seen mentioned elsewhere, she has amazing energy.

  • I like Nebula. It's not too expensive, there's a lot of great creators, and it's an easy way to support a variety without subscribing to all sorts of Patreons.

  • We have been transitioning to "soot" smears rather than full-on blackface and red lipstick, which has been very welcome. Yet some people hate it vehemently, "it's a festival for the children, they don't understand the racist implications so we don't need to change it!" (the latter part isn't generally spoken out loud).

  • Angela Collier just released a video about how billionaires really want to be seen as physicists, whilst most of them dropped out of college. "I could've become", "I considered to" and so on.

    They really want to be perceived as smart. I don't get any brownie points for saying "I thought about getting a PhD", why should they?
    Especially when they can hire several professors to teach them personally with their billions of dollars.

    It's a long video, but well worth the watch.

  • I tried switching to Aurora, but apps updated through there no longer appear in Android Auto for some reason (Spotify, Smart Audiobook Player)

  • It's the official bang for Startpage. You can't configure custom bangs in DDG; Kagi can do that.

    Oh, like so. When you said "same" I assumed you meant Google as well, and I found !s to be an intuitive bang for that. Startpage makes more sense, I know they get their results through Google.

    I've found DDG/bing's results to be quite lacking.

    It seems our experiences have been different, then.

  • but with !s

    Is that built-in, or do you have to configure it yourself? Configuring one is fine, but DDG has quite a few I semi-frequently use (!i, !g, !gi, !yt, !w, !gt), even Google itself feels like a downgrade when I want to search an image and I manually have to click the 'images' tab after performing my query.

    It's much more convenient to just have good search results to begin with though

    I agree, which is why I've been happy to continue using DDG.

  • I keep hearing about Kagi, maybe I should try it sometime.

    DDG has been quite serviceable to me, however. If I can't find something I can just add a quick !g to my already existing query and look it up on Google instead, which I've found rather convenient.

  • defeating Denise Swanner, whose campaign attacked his sexuality.

    Remember when it was all about "the identity politics of the left"?
