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

   ddg is my favorite search engine and it has great restutes. It has a built in video player too! The only problem is that i have to use google in a blue moon to get the results it need. Duckside! Brave! Lunix!

• Women perform better in cognitive tests when menstruating, study finds

  Also, these totally unrelated stories. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=older+women+misinformation&df=m&ia=web I have a loved one getting an emergency hysterectomy (and then what follows) so I guess it's on my mind. - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• History of the Paper Clip

  Recently I have been fascinated by the awesomeness of wire bending machines. Has anyone done any really funky stuff purely with wire bending? I am thinking furniture scale creations, green walls, giant sculpture, etc. Haven't quite got the timespace to build one but should be straightforward assuming small guage wire. There are some open source ones published:... - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• Show HN: Minimalist, Walkie-Talkie for Startups

  It's deskbound (until 2027 it looks like) so that rules out worksites but is far too constrained (and pretty) for traders and military use. You list "product development", "leaders", and "international teams" as potential roles, but as evidenced by the responses in this thread, many people who do product development treat synchronous voice comms as an abomination. The closest I can imagine would be call centers --... - Source: Hacker News / 6 days ago

• The Canon Cat, the forgotten 1987 alternate-reality Mac (2019)

  Lots of 2-key keyboards exist, and are even for sale inexpensively. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=2+button+keyboard&t=ftsa&iar=images Not very convenient for having both buttons near your thumbs, though. I've been trying out the related SwyftCard for Apple //e on the izapple2 emulator. https://github.com/ivanizag/izapple2

    ./a2sdl -model swyft.

  If you're using the DDG Web site, and a bookmark, can you force the language in the bookmark? Example: https://duckduckgo.com/?kl=us-en&kad=en_US. - Source: Hacker News / 8 days ago

• RLM responding to YouTube's age-restriction decision

  Well LTT / LMG has been having a lot of success with their floatplane.com platform directly competing with youtube. Source: about 1 year ago

• RIP lab32.com?

  Haven't they mentioned in the past that they spent like 10k on floatplane.com I can't remember the exact figure but I remember it on a WAN show and that it was a right pain to get. Source: over 1 year ago

• Since Linus and Luke on WAN show made a theater production trying and ultimately failing to figure out if Apple asks for permission before tracking you for advertising, here’s the pop up.

  They also ban any meaningful error message or explanation as to why that app doesn't do anything if your account doesn't already have active subscriptions. They can't even link to floatplane.com, it's kinda ridiculous. Source: almost 2 years ago

• My thoughts on the LTT Backpack (I am not getting my Birthday present)

  I guess also they are not providing free content they are getting ad revenue, sponsors, lttstore.com, and floatplane.com they make content that we consume that they get paid big for. Source: almost 2 years ago

• We Need To Get Content Creators To Migrate Away From Youtube

  Anyone heard of floatplane? It is a mixup of YouTube and patreon from Linus Media Group (Linus Tech Tips)? Source: about 3 years ago
