   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!

• Peer-to-peer file transfers in the browser

  The thing that usually annoys me about these services is that they tend to give you an intractably complex URL to share with the recipient. This poses a problem because almost every time I need such a P2P transfer, I’m communication with someone over a phone and they need the file on their computer. https://file.pizza does this better than most, as the URL consists of real words. But all the words are ingredients... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• LibreOffice still kicking at 40, now with browser tricks and real-time collab

  Is there a tl;dr on the crdt/collaboration feature? How does one get the share up and running, do you get a special link that you can send to someone? How smooth can it get? I'm guessing it's hard to do without some sort of relay system (like syncthing) or servers for hosting links (like https://file.pizza ). - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

  Not magic-wormhole compatible, but saw these two shared on other comments: - https://sendfiles.dev - https://file.pizza. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Magic Wormhole: get things from one computer to another, safely

  I've used https://file.pizza a bunch before, only because of the memorable name. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• LocalSend: Open-source, cross-platform file sharing to nearby devices

  There are a few browser based p2p file sharing tools [1] and a bunch of CLI tools out there as well for the same job. # Browser Based 1. FilePizza https://file.pizza/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Don't watermark your legal PDFs with purple dragons in suits

  The coked-up AI cartoon dragon attorney. His website, which also features the purple dragon and a bunch of busted links in the footer, says that the firm "integrates AI to lower the cost of legal services." Hopefully this lawyer is making sure this AI isn't making up the cases it's citing, which is a continuing problem: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ai+make+up+legal+cases. - Source: Hacker News / 17 days ago

• Virginia passes law to enforce maximum vehicle speeds for repeat speeders

  That is not a definitive result. Repairing older cars to meet minimum standards is possible. They also could introduce things gradually and grandfather older vehicles into the previous lack of standards, which is what NY did. You can read about the 85th percentile principle here: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=85th+percentile+speed https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=85th+percentile+speed I actually cannot check the... - Source: Hacker News / 21 days ago

• Virginia passes law to enforce maximum vehicle speeds for repeat speeders

  It does make sense. See the 85th percentile speed: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=85th+percentile+speed Setting the limit at the 85th percentile and having most drivers drive at it creates uniformity of speed, which is known to increase safety. - Source: Hacker News / 21 days ago

• Mesmerizing Interlocking Geometric Patterns Produced with Japanese Woodworking

  Reminds me of Islamic Mashrabiya screens. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Mashrabiya&ia=images&iax=images Historically, the screens were quite simple, with more complex patterns rendered in ceramic tilings (symmetry groups, colorings, knots and intertwinings). Now there are good modern screens with more innovative patterns, made with computer-controlled laser cutters. In a quick search for Kumiko examples, I very... - Source: Hacker News / 22 days ago

• NSF director to resign amid grant terminations, job cuts, and controversy

  Https://archive.org/details/resignationinpro00weis From an Amazon review comment: "This book offers an insightful analysis into the history and norms involved in the tradition of resignation in the U.S. And the U.K. Why do the British tend to resign loudly in protest and Americans resign “to spend more time with family” while praising their president? How do these norms benefit and harm their respective systems?... - Source: Hacker News / 24 days ago
