100% this is the best choice for op IMO.

A big pro is that they literally don’t need any Google services whatsoever by the sounds of things

I think most people are just used to Google, I used to be several years ago before moving to DDG.

Now I find Google is way too… “tutorially” and “bloggy” with results, and actually slows down my workflow a lot when I’m looking for a specific thing immediately - usually a bit of scrolling to get what I’m looking for.

DDG (for my use case as a casual search engine, and something to search docs for work) gets you to whatever you want with a much, much shorter and concise query, and pretty much always gets it right each time as the first result

I agree with OP here, these results are not great.

OP searched for the redis docker image, not a tutorial on how to use it, not a tutorial on why redis should be run in docker, and did not search for redis docker docs. While these are relevant, they should be further down, not the top result. DDG gets this right, and I’m pretty sure other search engines do too.

For a total newbie, these results are probably OK, but for a technical person who knows what they want literally as they type it, Google’s results are (excuse my french) simply shit. DDG is miles better at handling this stuff, and they don’t need your personal data to do it well either.

Edit: Just went and searched “redis docker image” in a private tab on Google, and the docker hub image for Redis is not even shown on the first page of results

Neat, thanks for the additional insight!

fair point that I didn’t consider! my assumption would be traffic, seeing as the toll is branded as “congestion pricing” - which wouldn’t really make sense for motorcycles because they make up so little of the actual cause of traffic in NYC (large motor vehicles).

If we’re talking about noise though, and how clean the engine burns fuel, motorcycles are 100% guilty as charged IMO.

Deaths and injuries is a little muddier because there are several factors at play, fault could lie on any individual involved in the accident, or maybe even the road design itself. I don’t think these would be robust enough to use as the sole basis for a toll fee

Sounds good overall, should reduce traffic levels significantly and make people consider whether they really need to drive their car in such a compact city.

Not sure if I agree with tolling motorcycles though, they don’t take up anywhere near the same footprint as the average car

Adobe is the one company i’d never, ever, ever want to support, especially with a subscription. 🏴‍☠️ all day every day

Flash drive hidden under the carpet and connected via a USB extension, holding the decryption keys - threat model is a robber making off with the hard drives and gear, where the data just needs to be useless or inaccessible to others.

There’s a script in the initramfs which looks for the flash drive, and passes the decryption key on it to cryptsetup, which then kicks off the rest of the boot mounting the filesystems underneath the luks

I could technically remove the flash drive after boot as the system is on a UPS, but I like the ability to reboot remotely without too much hassle.

What I’d like to do in future would be to implement something more robust with a hardware device requiring 2FA. I’m not familiar with low level hardware security at all though, so the current setup will do fine for the time being!

Time flies man. I remember the hype for this game back in 2014 like it was yesterday

I assume it’s a feature to prevent Android’s memory management from forcefully killing Firefox… for me the tabs don’t unload, but they behave as if the JS running inside them has been frozen/paused.

Maybe installing those tabs as apps via Firefox’s menu will bypass this

From GoG specifically, as they patch the older games on their store to “just run” on modern Windows

Wow 😂

Personally I prefer the consumer-friendly RTR ebikes be restricted OOTB. Having people fly past you on the sidewalk riding 45km/h, without a ding of the bell or any warning, is not nice 😭

People who DIY an unrestricted setup usually tend to go fast on the road, probably because they know what power they’ve got between their legs lol

The design reminds me a lot of a Tern GSD. I’d be scared to leave this in public though because of the price 🤯

Of course its Admiral AAB 😭

Does safari have a reader mode you can use to bypass it? I use a FF extension that allows me to disable all scripts on a page when I come across junk like this.

Alternatively just chuck the link into Wayback or archive.is

Pile on more layers of clothing. If things are really bad then I just bail to public transit

Element has added so much to Matrix that the barrier for even making an MVP app is a bit intimidating IMO

Yes please. Very frustrating encountering businesses and groups that only have a presence on facebook, no dedicated website or anything 😒
