But it's already set up for you in DDG, so why not use it? Aside from the fact it's another HTTP request, but these days on the majority of computers and connections, that's a trivial thing. I'll add that !aw to search t

Maybe it should, but that's not how it currently works. You share at the account level, and only one user can be using (read: playing a game) an account at a time. Personally, I get around this by using Offline Mode, but I know that

I bridge my Signal communications through my self-hosted Matrix server, so I'm already going to get the benefit of Signal not going through Google's servers. That said, MollySocket is a pretty neat hack that I had never heard of u

Hah, while I had a 386, it was an SX, as in without a math co-processor. I managed to find a TSR program on a local BBS that would emulate a math co-processor though, allowing me to play Doom. It was not a playable experience. Even at the

Depends. Since Apple/Google are monitoring it on their end, and I believe (at least on Android) turning off notifications at the OS level just blocks it from showing on your phone, these would still be sniffable. If the application in

I've seen people use a combination of both. The analog stick / trackpad for macro movements, and the gyro for fine tuning. I tried it once, and I think it could be fine if I practiced a tiny bit. But I've also got a normal PC

Agreed; the presentation was, IMHO, terrible. You had to read each image's relatively hard to read annotation to make sense of what they were trying to say. Hell, 95% of the entire article was image annotations, with single sentences b

I'll get this out of the way first: I'm a couch scientist (even that is probably stretching it). That said, from the video it mentions the superconductor was applied as a film over copper. But wouldn't plain copper also exhib

I personally use pass which out of the box uses git, meaning it's trivial to sync to as many devices as I want. And obviously merging is a solved issue there.
