Kagi ( https://kagi.com ) has very similar tools with their "Lenses" and customizable prioritization of specific domains.

If you're just looking for white/pink/brown noise, you could alternatively generate it using ffmpeg. I like ffmpeg -f lavfi -i anoisesrc=color=brown:amplitude=0.4 -filter "lowpass=f=400" -f pulse -device playbac

Reminds me of some of the videos from Every Frame a Painting about visual comedy in film. Specifically "Edgar Wright - How to Do Visual Comedy" [1] and "Buster Keaton - The Art of the Gag" [2]. They give and explain some

Interestingly Youtube still provides RSS feeds for all channels ( https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=<channel ID>). They're linked in the head element, so just the normal channel URL should w

It depends on the kind of debit card apparently. What I have is a girocard[1], which doesn't have the required 16 digit card number and CVC. I didn't even know that debit cards can have those. My online payments are usually made v

Thanks for the recommendation. It looks like a great service and I'd love to support them, but as a student I just can't justify $10/month as long as Google with an adblocker is still an okay experience. Credit card being the

I like it. I wonder if you could calculate how evil a solution would be in that regard, i.e. how likely you are to end up in a canyon. Maybe you could count how many substrings also occur in other valid words or something.

I don't think that's strictly true. I created an account a few months ago with a made-up name, throwaway gmail address and a (cropped) photo from thispersondoesnotexist.com, which is still working fine.

I've also been playin on hard mode almost since the beginning. While it usually does make the game more interesting, it also annoyingly often makes your win depend on pure luck. Ironically this happens more often when your first guesse

I picked that one up because of a similar recommendation, but didn't finish it. I think I was expecting an extensive collection of different ciphers throughout history with some short historical anectodes to go along with them. But it&

I once made a very similar visualization to see where people were trying to attack my servers from by adapting (e.g. use local geoip database file instead of ipinfo service) the Python script from [1], which uses folium to generate an inter

I often pass the time while e.g. running or sitting on a train by approximating square roots of and squaring random numbers or calculating the day of the week for random days. I don't think I've ever used these skills for a practi

Reminds me of the tool presented in [1], which also shows some interesting applications. Apparently an improved version is now being sold on its own platform [2], but the original Python script is still available on Github [3]. [1] https:&

I think Cosmopolitan[1] is a beautiful example for self-modifying executables. > Cosmopolitan Libc makes C a build-once run-anywhere language, like Java, except it doesn't need an interpreter or virtual machine. Instead, it reconfig

I've considered switching to Migadu in the past, but an outgoing limit of 20/day on the "micro" plan seems weirdly low, especially considering they're advertising it as being for families. It would just take e.g. on

I think --data implies -X POST, so that part at least would be unnecessary.

I think there's a big qualitative difference between having a Youtube Kids profile and filtering access to certain content versus completely negating a child's digital privacy like this. It actually reminds me of that one Black Mi

For general knowledge I find Wikipedia's "Vital articles"[1] a good place to start. They're organized in levels, with the 10 most general articles (e.g. Human, Language, Life, Mathematics, Philosophy) on level 1 and then

Maybe it's similar to how an artificial neural network can converge to different local optimums for a particular problem, depending on its initial parameters and training method. Our brains might just find different ways of representin

Interestingly there are people like myself who don't have an inner monologue (some people supposedly even have a constant dialogue with themselves) at all. The only time I experience something like an inner voice is when reading. My no

I think they meant anonymous with respect to other users. With Telegram you can create a username and be contacted through that without revealing your phone number. As far as I know that's not possible with WhatsApp.

Sun and wind aren't the only renewable energy sources. There is also geothermal and hydroelectric power for example. Countries like Iceland and Norway already do or are close to meeting all their energy needs with 100% renewable energy

Why should we use nuclear power at all, when renewables already have a far lower levelized cost of energy[1]? Is there any reason why only using renewable energy sources would be impossible? [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki

I tested it before making the claim. It is definitely possible. The only limitation is that you can't stream at the highest bitrate.
