Does it work with a dot too? Is this a Google Suite thing?

Hey, thanks for "Close Discarded Tabs", it's precisely what was missing :-)

I use Tree Style Tabs in Firefox, but I have mixed feelings about it. It should help me visually find tabs, but truth of the matter is that it doesn't. Horizontal tabs become useless after 10 tabs opened, indeed, but vertical tabs beco

The notion that only old people are affected is wrong. And hospitalization rate doesn't differ much between age groups, only fatality rate. And if the healthcare system breaks down due to number of cases, you start seeing a lot of youn

While I'm a proponent of restrictions, your argument doesn't make much sense. It's irrelevant if the economy is human-made or a natural phenomenon, because it is nevertheless what keeps us fed and with a roof over our heads.

Afaik Safari's content blockers don't work in iOS's Firefox. Has this changed? Also browser extensions aren't allowed on iOS due to Apple's policy. AFAIK you can't build your own browser engine that does JIT, y

Nothing would happen to me. My personal email is not on Gmail. My documents are not in Google Docs, my data is not in Google Drive. I upload my videos elsewhere. My browser history isn't in Chrome, etc. While I understand the individua

In the 19th century over 90% of the world population lived in poverty and over 80% lived in extreme poverty. World population living in extreme poverty went down to 55% in 1950 and then plummeted to under 10% in 2015. I recommend this book:

Not sure what you're trying to say. Both population growth and poverty have been plummeting since ~1960.

While I agree, large population densities happen due to poverty, the more poor people get, the more children they'll have. Western countries have lower population densities than many Asian countries. On one hand these are richer countr

Startpage was also bought by an advertising company. They might claim privacy, but de-googlers forget that Google is a much bigger target for law enforcement than any of its alternatives. If you don't trust Google to not collect your d

This never made sense to me, if you're concerned about privacy, why send your search queries to an intermediary when the browser is perfectly capable of handling that for you.

For me all results are worse, computer science or not. DDG completely ignores my country or when it doesn't, the results are misclassified. And you can forget about local searches, DDG being worse than useless for those. What strikes m

The idea that humans evolve somehow into better beings is an unjustified religion. You shouldn't let technological progress fool you, we are nearly the same as we were 1 million years ago. Raising domesticated animals for slaughter is

You can easily deny location data to games and people that are concerned about these apps will not share their location lightly. I have no app on my iPhone with the ability to use my location in the background, not even Waze or Google Maps.

Our intestinal tracts are smaller than that of herbivores. As a matter of fact our intestinal tract has the length ratio similar to that of other omnivores, similar to that of pigs or dogs for example. We don't have the teeth of carniv

That's a really dumb argument. Where do you think the energy and the nutrients from plants come from? It comes from the sun and the soil. So if plants are a middleman, we might as well eat dirt and stay in the sun all day.

If you wear masks, but there aren't enough on sale, you end up exposing medical personnel. Viral load matters. Exposure to high viral loads has killed young and healthy doctors. For medics masks save lives. Wearing masks in a situation

Consensus in science is fundamental. This is because even nobel laureates can and have turned to quackery. You don't have science without peer review . If you're anti-consensus, you're anti-science. And yes, it's OK to

What WHO is saying is that there is no solid proof that wearing a mask will do much to protect you. And they are correct in saying that. They do not say that masks offer no protection. They also don't say that you shouldn't wear m
