This thread got pretty off track. But, if I were to opt out of this database and went looking for a job, would potential employers not be able to see specific history about me (or at least not from Equifax)?

Are those the TPUs Google sells to consumers? I've been thinking of buying one & hooking it up to a Pi just to play around with LLMs or Stable Diffusion. But I didn't realize they were slower/worse than other options.

Has anyone tried this with some video where they know what the person is saying? I'd be interested to know how accurate it is, from what angles it will read lips at (front facing, side, etc). Sounds promising if it works well. Imagine

Can someone summarize why JPEG-XL is so controversial to browser devs? Why not just allow as many image standards as possible?

The while thing about fining people for using a VPN was rescinded almost immediately, per this NYT article [1] but the press is still running with it everywhere it seems. "Justice Moraes had also said that any person in Brazil who trie

I couldn't get it to do anything. It just seems to be checking for cached/archive copies of the article. The BPC browser extension still blows this out of the water. Firefox: https://github.com/bpc-clone/bypas

Only thing I'd like to suggest is an option to search for Windows 11 compatible machines. With MS cutting off support for Windows 10 next year, making sure a machine has the system requirements needed. However, I have seen a lot of sel

That's a shame. But I've only used IPFS once in Brave. Can it be accessed via an extension or does it require some other client software to access?

You're right! It hasn't been updated in a month, but maybe that's where the updates will be coming. It's typically updated every couple days to once a week. https://x.com/Magnolia1234B/status/18

I'm not sure I would trust a Russian mirror if the author didn't post it. The main issue with this extension is it has to be updated very regularly. To continue to bypass the paywall requires constant tweaks & edits. So, unles

But is that illegal? Or is that violation of copyright? You're accessing content that can be viewed by Googlebot, or by disabling Javascript or some other simple browser tweaks.

I can't believe Github processed this incredibly spurious DMCA request that didn't even detail what was being infringed beyond some vague "anti-circumvention technology". Plus it checks for archived and cached versions o

That's a very cool idea. I checked out my city, but I wasn't really sure what to search for & even if I did I'm not entirely sure what I'm looking at when I see it. But here are 2 suggestions I thought of: • Have the

It's definitely worth a try if you're not satisfied with DDG's results. They seem to more closely match Google & have a few more privacy features, such as visiting a page through their anonymized proxy. I've been qui

That's unusual. Startpage has been known to filter IP ranges that it thinks might be scraping it, but normally it just throws up a CAPTCHA. It's a large & well known search engine though. So you could ask the librarian, maybe

Why not just switch to Startpage.com? It's essentially getting results from Google (and Bing?[1]) without trackers, AI, personalized results, etc [1] https://support.startpage.com/hc/en-us/articles/452243
