I'm referring to a default search engine. Something I can use by default everywhere and I can recommend to others. So it has to provide results based on typical use cases. First I've heard of a "metasearch" engine. I jus

Same here. Much like Firefox, I think it's important to use a search index that isn't tied to the larger players (Bing and Google in this case). I tried Brave a couple of months ago[1], I found the results better than Bing, but wi

"Fits linux" is an odd statement. Most of the things you stated can be done by changing the theme of most desktop environments. For performance, I used LXQT recently to revive an old laptop, it's great. https://lub

They don't require interaction. Think about billboards, TV/video ads, sponsorship ads, etc. It's enough for you to just see an ad, to not forget a brand or product exists. At some point, you might think about a product subcon

It sounds like we're in agreement, you're arguing about things I didn't even say. I just had a look, and Firefox already has the toggle. The only thing left is for them to provide a per-site toggle and it's sorted. There

> No. Let the website owners give their users options. It's not that hard. If it's not hard, shouldn't that ideal be towards the handful of browser vendors rather than the thousands/millions of website owners? I agree

I think saying "everybody else" is an exaggeration. It's a minority (possibly a major on HN, including me) who tweak colour schemes. Just like how people rarely used alternate stylesheets. And why it took so long to even get

It should not be the website's role to provide user controls over this. Having a website require JS to be acceptable is not acceptable. It's possible to use CSS only to check a input element's state, which feels like a workar

The title is misleading. Most large enough games do use databases in some form, just like a lot of software. If the title was a bit more accurate to its content, it would avoid a lot of disagreements here. "Building games with AI agent

Are you referring to the GameCube USB adapter? That requires purchasing said adapter (which is out of production, and expensive) and is limited to wired GameCube controllers. The homebrew solution goes much broader than that without needing

Just to correct myself, "11i" is actually what I saw in the configuration and it's the "Beacon Type". WiFi Analyzer shows them as 11n (2.4Hz) and 11ac (5GHz). https://jahed.dev/2021/12/20&#
