Even though I was against "GPG is too complicated" thing, in the last 20 min I corrected a couple of people, so just to be clear: * This key was issued four days ago. * No, anybody with that key can't read their messages. You

And, as always, they sync the prices in EUR and USD, so it's $8 more expensive to buy the book from Europe.

At the end of 2014, both Apple and then Mozilla added DuckDuckGo to their browser's list of search engines bundled by default. This was the very first time any meta search engine (search engine that combines results from multiple sea

That's precisely my point. Canonical did a good thing of mashing it all together into a single product. DDG does the same for search in my book. They've both outsourced the heavy lifting to some third party. In DDG, Bing/Yaho

How are you doing on Bing and Yahoo? Maybe your SEO is too Google-specific? I wouldn't blame you, mine is too (since the majority of readers use Google), but I rank exceptionally higher in alternatives than I do on Google.

I mean, a probably more relevant summary of what DDG offers would be: Bing/Yahoo/Yandex mashup stripped out of personalized results + bangs + [until recently] community maintained instant answers. Edit: Worth pointing out: as far

I'll double my RAM every year if that's what's necessary for cross-platform apps that are truly easy to develop.

No, not even that. More like: "Is this user's battery below 50% and discharging? If not, he'll probably not even notice this."

To add one more question to the one raverbashing posted: How long do you even keep TPB in the background on your phone for it to consume your entire battery?

by r3bl 9y ago
If HTML5's battery API ever became a thing, this issue could be solved without any user interaction.

One valid point I've seen someone say about this in a tweet (I'm paraphrasing it): By the time you read this comment, Facebook (presumably) already made enough profit to pay this fine.

While your comment does apply to the large majority of Android users, there are some things worth keeping in mind: * It applies to non-Nexus/Pixel lines (before you say that this is an invalid argument, most of the Windows devices so

DDG has a bang for a lot of things, because it's trivial to implement them (they just redirect you to <page.com>/<something>?q=<your_search_term_here), and trivial to make a suggestion.

Nope. In that article, it says that Google is paying them to remain the default search provider (exactly what Mozilla used to do with Firefox). Definitely different than Apple "selling search requests". If you switch your search p

Well, I can guarantee you that Apple doesn't follow you all over the Internet like Google does (edit: and Facebook with its like buttons and commenting platform, probably to lesser extent than Google's analytics and ads). Presumab

Well, the article in question is "life without Google". iOS is not Google's. Therefore, it satisfies the point of this article. While I do agree that Apple is no better at preserving privacy, it doesn't fit the scope of

I might be wrong, but I think that they haven't posted any actual text because the document(s) got leaked. If you're looking for a proper discussion about this and the actual text, EDRi (something like EU's EFF) is probably w
