   Google chrome, firefox, edge, ie, opera, are now tracking you.

• Ask HN: What not-profit-seeking project are you tinkering with this week?

  I'm working on a non-profit search engine (https://ask.moe) where the plan is to donate 100% of our profits to other non-profit organizations and charities (that are much better equipped to put the money to good use, and have a proven track record). I believe it will be possible to make the first donation next month as we will finally reach the AdSense threshold of 600 DKK, and since October has been really good... - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• Google Pays ‘Enormous’ Sums to Maintain Its Search Engine Dominance DOJ Says

  It's just as hard on Chrome and every other browser. So far I've yet to meet a single non-developer capable of changing their default search engine to my website without my help. Try changing the default search engine on iOS Safari to some search engine that Apple hasn't hardcoded into their settings (e.g. https://ask.moe, https://search.brave.com, etc). - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• Ask HN: Share your side project and your motivation

  Https://ask.moe - a non-profit search engine that donate 100% of our profits to charitable organizations chosen by our users. I decided to pursue this project because it's something that can easily be expanded to include everything (sports, shopping, podcasts, news, videos, coupons, etc) in a natural way, and I managed to find an (imo) awesome domain name. The website has seen long pauses due to difficulties in... - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• Yep, the Google alternative that shares revenue with creators. By Ahrefs

  I'd like to throw mine into the mix (we're a non-profit that plans to donate 80% of our profits to other non-profit organizations and charities, but we need more traffic before Google will enable ads, so at the moment then we're ad-free and not generating any income to donate): https://ask.moe. - Source: Hacker News / over 3 years ago

• Scientists say X has lost its professional edge and Bluesky is taking its place

  The AI stuff can be disabled. Duckduckgo allows you to store settings in the URL, so if you're the type of person who disables cookies and localstorage you could simply edit your search URL to: https://duckduckgo.com/?k5=1&kbe=0&kbj=1&kbg=-1&q=%s. - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago

• Everything that's wrong with Google Search in one image

  It's solid, I use it 95% of the time, that 5% Google usually still disappoints. https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=midjourney&ia=web. - Source: Hacker News / 10 days ago

• Oh no, not again a meditation on NPM supply chain attacks

  Anyone familiar with The Onion knows this, The Onion themselves repost the exact same thing every time there's a school shooting. Which emphasizes how regularly it happens, and therefore in turn I have no objection to a joke like this becoming copy pasta every time an NPM supply chain attack takes place. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=site%3Atheonion.com+%22no+way+to+prevent+this%22. - Source: Hacker News / 17 days ago

• Challenges You Will Face When Parsing PDFs with Python

  This is not insightful. It describes (in a very typical padded, AI style) some generic reasons that PDFs are hard to parse (which apply just as much in any programming language), and then makes a few common suggestions for Python PDF parsing libraries that could trivially be found by anyone who needs them with a simple Web search (https://duckduckgo.com/?q=python+pdf+library). (Admittedly, PyPI's own search is... - Source: Hacker News / 19 days ago

• Minesweeper Thermodynamics

  Similar game: Mamono Sweeper https://duckduckgo.com/?q=mamono+sweeper (mamono is monster in japanese) it's a RPG variant of Minesweeper, where you have life points, level up and fight against monster (mines) that gives you xp once killed (you loose HP if you fight a monster higher lvl than you). it's a flash game, that had an android release at some point (it was removed from the store for some reasons). - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago
