They should have turn it into the default and remove AI or make it opt-in.
I used DuckDuckGo in the past, it’s pretty nice but it’s proprietary and the company is a little bit too much pro-AI. They made a poll about AI approval and despite the majority of people were against, they kept it on their regular website and launched DDG No-AI instead.
Now I’ve moved to SearchXNG (https://searx.ononoki.org/), and it’s very good but the Bing search engine has a weird bug where doesn’t give relevant results. You can fix this by using DuckDuckGo and Brave engines instead.

I get that it takes some combination to replace them to words and make the text incoherent, but I don’t get how it’s configured or how the AI can’t get a coherent text. I would get it if it was OCR, but scrapping?
I wanted to play Fortnite again but after seeing Epic to approve the AI Slop in their shop, I deleted my account and never looked back.

4·9 days agoExcuse me but I don’t get how or why this works.
Can someone explain to me how does this work?
They are a psy-op to make the public hate vegans.
Right now and using NixOS and I’m pretty happy with it, it suffers from There’s More Than One Way To Do It and there are so many options that do the same and the documentation isn’t great.
When I finally made my base flake.nix, easy peasy! But the difficulty curve is pretty steep.
This is a private university though.

I wanna use Guix but I worry about hardware compatibility, when I tried to run it the installer said my hardware wasn’t 100% compatible and recommended me not to continue.

Their post looks AI generated.
I don’t think telemetry is inherently bad though, it’s nice to have some information to fix stuff but it should be transparent and the data shouldn’t be sold.

I hope the project lives on in the long run.

1·23 days agoI’ve never watched/read anything related to GITS, but the art style of this looks really charming and now I’d like to get in touch with the series.
I’m a sucker for anything cyberpunk.

1·23 days agoMaybe Nim? It has an optional C++ backend and seems interoperable with it.
I’m not sure of how good is it, I use mostly the C backend.
Maybe do Markdown shenanigans? Like doing tables for you.




Squoosh is probably a little bit better and more flexible.
