   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!

  Take a look at these pictures: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=cluttered+old+persons+home&atb=v314-1&iax=images&ia=images I was thinking that people who live in an environment like this are most in need of a robot to help them. - Source: Hacker News / 5 days ago

• I don't think the cheapest APC Back-UPS units can be monitored except in Windows

  Not to be snarky, but UPS fires are one of the leading causes of datacenter fires: https://duckduckgo.com/?hps=1&q=UPS+Fire+datacenter&ia=web. - Source: Hacker News / 5 days ago

• Stable Diffusion 3

  Taking the actual example you provided, I can understand the issue. Since it amounts to blurring images of a virtual character, that are not actually "naughty." Equivalent images in bulk quantity are available on every search engine with "yennefer witcher 3 game" [1][2][3][4][5][6] Returns almost the exact generated images, just blurry.

• Google Reneged on the Monopolistic Bargain

  The framing of this as a Google issue would suggest that other search engines wouldn’t have this issue, but I’m not sure that’s true? The “air purifier” search on DDG seems to give the same set of blogspam results: https://duckduckgo.com/?t=h_&q=best+air+purifier+for+pet+hair&ia=web Can someone with Kagi check to see if Kagi does better here? - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago

• [Vent] YouTube forcing adblock removal, here's what you can do!

  Adblock plus => I only use this one with Edge because Opera has a default adblocker of its own, but this is also a very welcome extension and something that can (and will) keep you safe! Source: 4 months ago

• Why are there differences between the EasyList filter lists mirrors!?

  Why doesn't easylist.to link to its own version of the Fanboy's Annoyance List? Why are the lists (and especially the "EasyList Germany") on the mirror (?) of adblockplus.org more up-to-date than on easylist.to? Source: 10 months ago

• Problem with popups

  That can be annoying. Do you see them on Flipboard or when you navigate to the actual website of the article? If that's the case, then it would be up to the website that is hosting the article. I would recommend a good popup/ad blocker like adblock plus. Source: 10 months ago
