   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!

• Nearsightedness is at epidemic levels – and the problem begins in childhood

• Tesla driver arrested for homicide after running over motorcyclist on Autopilot

  I'm a huge Tesla skeptic, but Tesla and Musk are lightning rods for tabloid-style garbage that doesn't belong on HN, so it doesn't surprise me that we often see negative Tesla content flagged to death. Meanwhile we also see plenty of content that hits the front page and stays there [0]. Do you have examples of professional, interesting Tesla content that got flagged? [0] More than half of the past year's most... - Source: Hacker News / 4 days ago

• The Man Who Killed Google Search

  It's April 23rd, 2024, and I am still looking for a good, reliable, honest and simple search engine. All I want to do is search. No AI. No ads. No shopping. Please don't "Answer my question." I enjoy doing my own original research, thanks. I'm entirely willing - wanting even - to pay for it.

• DuckDuckGo AI Chat

  AI Chat is separate from the search engine. On the search engine we have DuckAssist, which is currently grounded in Wikipedia (more sources coming): https://duckduckgo.com/?q=what+is+the+stoichiometric+ratio+between+2NO2+and+N2O4&atb=v311-1-wb&ia=web. - Source: Hacker News / 10 days ago

• DuckDuckGo AI Chat

  That's one way of looking at it. Another way is that your PII like your IP hitting a MS server and searches being returned for that searcher are heavily correlated. They can't serve results like https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ftsa&q=shops+near+me&ia=web and return shops within miles of me without passing that info on. - Source: Hacker News / 10 days ago
