Seeing fb at no 7 is interesting. I would love to have a search engine that is able to crawl and index fb, since the site has an extremely poor search, while having tons of seemingly 'public' data that is not properly indexed on a

I love the idea of a paid customizable search engine BUT I would never want my payment/identity tied to every search I make.

I find it difficult to understand whether your second sentence refers to Russia or those 'post-soviet countries'. If it is the latter, I want to note that as a person from a Baltic country I have no doubt that my fellow citizens v

tl;dr: Reducing meat consumption should not rely on meat substitutes, it's a losing game. It's much better to explore alternative vegan dishes than to expect plant-based or lab-grown products to replace something that the average

As a former user of both (for work), I agree and would never use either for my own projects when I can easily set up a self-hosted cookieless matomo instance. Otoh, my former compliance officer much preferred using MS's product since i

I get your point, but is that really such a great thing when it comes to business ethics? e.g., spying on people and hacking their private communications just to get ahead: https://www.businessinsider.com/how-mark-zuckerberg

Vonnegut is one of my favorite authors, but this idea (which was not accepted for his Master's thesis, iirc) was extremely limited and laughable in terms of literary theory even when he suggested it. 20th century structuralism (esp. li
