Look up the Firefox Containers extension.
I love it when real news report headlines sound like an article from The Onion.
Voyager. I tried a few others but Voyager has a very slick UI and all the features I want.
The guy who started Bluesky was the same Twitter co-founder who push for Twitter to sell out. Thanks but no thanks. I’ll stick with Mastodon. It’s getting real comfy in there now.
I rely on Google Search far less now than I used to for this reason. People had already gotten Google SEO down to a science and were poisoning search results very effectively. This AI-generated bullshit is taking it to a whole new level.
I’ve decided to use alternative search engines like DDG, SearXNG, etc. hoping their indexing criteria will be different enough current SEO techniques won’t affect them as much… For now.
Still, the use of cookies as key elements used to persist client session identifiers in the browser is too widespread and relied upon by prevalent web powerhouses like PHP for Google to do away with them.
Moreover, as much as there may be more modern, sleek alternatives like browser session and application storage, you can’t realistically expect the entire web industry to completely migrate away from cookies just like that.
Glad to see stability and QoS being prioritised over throughput this time around. I feel like once WiFi broke through the 300 Mbps barrier with the 5GHz band, strictly focusing on further improvements in throughput would just yield diminishing returns for most people.
However, latency and signal strength have been notoriously annoying long-term problems that I’m happy to see finally being acknowledged.
5 and 8. Imagine being able to spook people out all around the world by making their toaster go off in the middle of the night. Also, speaking in dead languages will make me very interesting at parties.
I welcome this change. It makes it clear to the user in realistic terms how they want to engage with the site.
I despise Meta and all their products but they are entitled to charge people for them. Shit ain’t free to run, you know.
I’d much sooner they showed this banner and force people to make a decision than what they’ve been doing up until now, which is to “assume” everyone’s fine with their personal data being harvested and exploited without their knowledge or consent.
It is so ironic that SEO has become the very problem it was invented to fix: all these jokers gaming the system have all but plunged us all back into prehistoric internet times, before search engines appeared and people had to remember which specific sites to go to find information online.
For videogames specifically, I usually turn to these sources for reliable advice:
This is the right answer.
Leave poor Shrek alone!
The enemy of my enemy is my friend!

Finally, not quite what you asked but here’s a freebie, in case you didn’t know about it:

It’s an old web search engine. It only indexes pages from the 00s and earlier.
