As a European, could you explain College degree, graduate, post graduate, etc. ? We have Bachelor’s and Master’s degree here, I thought we got that from you?

Thank you, that was a really good explanation!

I am currently deciding wether to use librewolf or floorp, do you by chance have an opinion on that?

Not OP, but I copy my reply from the last time someone asked an opinion on kagi:

I use it, but to be honest I did not do a comprehensive comparison. I like it mostly for the fine grained website control. For work and some personal stuff I often look for code and can push websites like GitHub to appear more often. Or I can block Pinterest in my search results. I tried to do this in SearXNG, but this was too much of a hassle so in a way I pay kagi for convenience. I recently got a new job and will evaluate in the coming months if it is still worth the money, but right now I am satisfied. Nobody else I know would pay for a search engine, so I can understand the stance, but I am really fed up with all the advertising and enshitification so I thought why not give it a try. And yes, because it was recommended here.

Do you use a private DNS like Adguard? I never see ads of any kind on my phone with this.

I only watch movie and game trailers on YouTube, so yes, it would not bother me if they would be bankrupt tomorrow.

The most annoying thing for me is that Firefox is reloading the current tab if I switch apps and then back to Firefox. Why is this not saved somehow and needs to reload the whole page?

I also have a steam deck, don’t like to play without buttons, so phone is a no go and the steam deck screen is too big for such pixelated games, so I got myself a RG35XX for 50€ from AliExpress and am super happy with it. It plays anything up to the PS1.

Why do I see this online so often? Is it an educational thing? Is it an auto correct thing? Or something other? I am not a native speaker, so I have no clue how this happens.

Is there a good reason they won’t get acceptance?

Could instead reverse osmosis remove those particles and be used as consumer products?

I have legal expenses insurance, which covers all costs in the event of legal proceedings. Most people have that here in Germany, isn’t it the same elsewhere?

Could you elaborate on that for someone who has no clue about stock market stuff?

Yeah, I feel sorry for the people who are now losing their jobs over something like this as well as my personal hopes for some of the franchises.

Und hier der link :)

I can’t give you an answer to the legality question, but some additional information I heard in a podcast: The acquisitions came at a time when money was cheap and people were playing a lot more video games because of the pandemic. Unfortunately, they miscalculated because money is now much more expensive again and the gaming industry has not been able to retain these players across the board. Only 4 games that have come out since then have brought in much more than the production costs, which then had to finance the remaining ~15 (all from my memory, but it should be in the order of magnitude). That didn’t work out and so now cuts have to be made to avoid burning even more money.

If you understand German, I can send you a link to the podcast, if you’re interested.

I am starting with home automation and I am always fascinated by some of the idea I read on the Internet. Did you come up with this yourself or is there a list of conditions and triggers with devices somewhere I can use with Home Assistant?

Thanks for the tip, I didn’t know that.

If you want to do this because of the full screen ads you may be too late.

Would it be also evidence for the simulation theory that there is a maximum speed of information (light speed)?
