   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!

• App

  FWIW Apple users could write a workaround if they were allowed to sideload, like Android users did: https://newpipe.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 9 days ago

• Ask HN: Anyone else ready to ditch app stores and Facebook's ecosystem?

  Many organizations post the APK file on their web page or link to it from a QR code. You can also have it download newer versions of itself, as they are released. Here's an example: https://newpipe.net/#download. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• YouTube in Android introduces UI bugs

  NewPipe [1] and its derivatives like Tubular that include SponsorBlock (and dislikes, but I don't use this feature) are also great. They let you follow channels and build playlists without a Google account play in background. You can find those apps on F-Droid by adding the relevant repositories.

• LTT video on de-Googling removed for "violating community guidelines"

  In your comment you said "the first video taken down from LTT", which is not true. Yes, this might be the first video removed for _one specific reason_. This also might be the first video where he broke external links policy[1] > Links to websites, apps, or other sources that give unauthorized access to audio content, audiovisual content, video games, software, or streaming services that normally require payment... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Mobile Ad Blocker Will No Longer Stop YouTube's Ads

  Just use NewPipe. It's just a better Youtube client even if it had ads. https://newpipe.net/. - 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 / 14 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.

• 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 / 18 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 / 18 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 / 21 days ago
