It really isnt anywhere near Kagi in search quality or results. I think its important to be honest here. If you dont want to pay to search, fine, but you will get much worse results.

Could be fine for your usecase though. Maybe you only search for major sites.

This post is like 2 years old guys. :)

Ah ok, engadget appearently updated the content to 2025 using the same link used 2 years ago…

I have paid for it since it started so have to say yes. Never going back to Google.

Other search engines have much worse results.

Yeah. I remember reading about Adam Smith in school, and it made perfect sense then. But after seeing the actual world, it seems it just falls apart.

I dont understand… Its describing what android does. How can that be rage bait?

Nobody will rage over any of this. Its common knowledge already. Its the same thing that has been discussed for years.

Are they? I see monopolies everywhere and they seem super efficient for bringing in billions of dollars to the owners, which in turn becomes incredibly powerful and influencial people. Their decisions affect the entire planet now.

What is the definition of an efficient market?

There is no solution i think. The entire economic system is about creating those imbalances. In other words, monopolies are the end goal of capitalism, for the companies.

I mean, unless you want to constrain unlimited capitalism but America is not about that. Europe is doing that.

The rich people in America now are practically running the country and its decisions. I dont think there is a solution when people have become that powerful and rich.

I will just come by your house, asking for 1000 dollars, every morning and evening, until you give it to me then.

Easiest solution is to give me the money, man.

We are in it already. Its an information and psy-ops war. Propaganda, fear, manipulation, controlling tech platforms, making people fight eachother over race, gender, whatever.

This is why everyone feels anxious.

Its not going to be a day when we see on the news that we are in a world war. Its ongoing and quiet.

History books may say that it started around 9/11, but depends on who writes the history…

For me its 100% of games, but sure, havent tried all games that exist…

In the same way you are stupid for not knowing how your car works, sure.

People have limited knowledge about almost everything except their own narrow interests.

We actually have TONS of things incommon with other people. Millions of things. There is no reason to act like you are special, or i am special.

I hope Nvidia stock drops 10% so I can buy more.

Actually its so high up now, I think losing 10% isnt enough for it to look like a good buy.

Nvidia as usual… :)

An ordinary sftp server. No reason for this to be web based.

I think ICE is the scariest thing the US has done in decades. The online world is not even important compared to the evil stuff they are doing.

It just shows a mentality in Trump that is similar to Hitler. Also that he murders people on Venezuelas boats without any trial or legal actions. Just murders them.

So yeah. I will actually move my stuff away from aws even. I dont want any US in my life.

I guess I dont like the idea of AI getting popular enough to pay for because it can generate porn.

I was hoping for more, I guess. :)

But sure, i get it. I watch porn too. And beautiful women are exciting. On a spiritual level though, it feels super primitive to sit and and jerk off to images or video.

Also it definently damages people. We just cant stop.

You dont need to test on different Linux distributions. All that matters is what kernel its running. That is the one that is detecting your headset.

Just so you know for the future. You can actually just install the latest kernel instead of trying different distros.

VR and Ai are competely different but I understand your perception here. It may seem to you that they are similar and then the Ai race doesnt make sense.

Virtual Reality? Not in the way we have it now with huge expensive glasses and special software. Thats just the first experimental phase of the technology.

I dont think it has a purpose yet. Maybe in the future, it will. Some killer app where VR is essential and everybody wants that app.

Probably something related to porn. Wouldnt be surprised.

No not agi, thats a dream we wont see in decades. But this is the start.
