I came here to say this. Partly due to behavioral changes on my part, DDG’s results have been closer to what I’m looking for. At school, they block DDG on the WiFi, so I use Google there and I have to flick past many ads and results that look good from the summary, but have nothing to do with what I’m looking for when load the page.

good analogy! If that’s the case, then I can paddle a canoe 10mph (downstream, with a “tail” wind).

Ditto. The security department made the push because too many people were installing unapproved addons like ublock. They are mandating chrome, “for security”. LMAO

The irony is that people are signing into chrome with personal gmail and leaking stuff.

While this is an incredible travel speed, I wouldn’t consider it “hitting supersonic” speeds based on ground speed. I read the article wondering about the safety of passenger aircraft at 800MPH, but it seems to not apply.

I’m not a pilot, though.

I like to think that using FOSS daily, singing its praises to everyone and filing out the occasional bug report counts.

I think you’re saying that we should be giving parents the tools to parent their kids and the accountability to take responsibility when their parenting affects others negatively.

I’ve been saying this for years.

I’m running /e/ OS 1.8.1. Avenza seems to be the problem here. There are other apps too, but this is the lastest. It’s frustrating to be required to use closed source proprietary software for public services, like the forestry maps.

Thanks! This is what I was looking for.

Osmand is great for most of what I need on a daily basis, but on a trip a few years ago, some of the hiking trails were not up to date and we got lost. It wasn’t terrible, but it was uncomfortable and fortunately we had paper maps.

I would like to use the maps provided by the park or forestry service since I like to think that they’re current, but they rely on Avenza which relies on Google. I’m okay taking a risk on Avenza for the short duration of the trip and plan to not give it network access, but I doubt I could do that with Google Play services, much less cleanly uninstall it after the trip is over.

I have and use OSMAnd and love it. I’ll check out those other apps. Mostly, I want to use the trail maps provided by the park. I’ve been burned in the past when using other trail apps.

1040EZ, $0, $0, $0, $0.

Taxes done

I had to check the username on this comment to ensure that it wasn’t me posting this. I’ve said these words verbatim.

devour indeed. I also had a recipe for fennel lemonade that I made with the tops.

Additionally, going out to eat has many hidden costs, like liquor tax in some cities on an already overpriced drink. Soda or Iced tea is $2.50 or more. Now add tax and tip and your $7 cheeseburger & coke is $25.

It’s not for everyone, but my family has been enrolling in CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) produce. It’s cheaper and local. Granted, I’ll get 3 eggplants in a box one week and I need to get creative to be able to use it, but that’s part of the fun. I’ve expanded my produce repertoire 5-fold and now know how to cook fennel.

I’m using “did I take my meds” from F-Droid. It’s not for everyone, but I love that it’s privacy focused and FOSS. It can also track when you’re getting low and need to reorder.

I’m so glad you asked. I had improperly assumed.it was referring to native or indigenous peoples from tribal land. I couldn’t figure out why all the hate.

This is like those sites where you just need that recipe for the Bloomin’ Onion sauce because you forgot one ingredient and you get the life story of the author:

“We were riding on horseback around Tuscany when my riding boot got scuffed by the buckle, so we stopped by a local cobbler to repair it while we listned to the church bells of a nearby…”

3 screens later…

“There was an Outback Express at the airport and I asked the waiter…”

“Horseradish” Oh yeah!

a friend of mine will eat the whole sunflower seed including the shell. This confuses me.

The ironic thing is that when I write it down, then I remember it without needing the list (I can see the note in my head), but if I don’t write it down, I forget it. It’s not exactly a list, but my home and office spaces are littered with post-it notes.

It’s no surprise that I’m a visual person.

As Cory Doctrow says, voting with your dollar is a fixed game because he who has the most dollars wins. Not to discourage it, though, because that would be pretty hypocritical to publicly condem the same store that you shop at, for example.

Most government sites must be accessible to individuals with disabilities such as low vision or other imapirments. You can’t require a blind person to use chrome to apply for a job.
