Why DDG is the superior serch engine

My step length is 0.8m. After taking 25 steps, I have travelled 20m (roughly 65feet). 5 times that is 100m. 10 times that is 1km. Notice how easy those numbers are to multiply and divide. And notice how much easier it is to take regular steps than heel-to-toe steps. You know you could memorize how big your body parts are in metric too, right?
I'd argue that the only reason your preferred units are easier for you is because you are familiar with them.

The Death of the Status Update: Why 55% of Americans Stopped Posting on Social Media
For me it's the idea that by interacting with social media I'm working to generate profit for a billionaire-led company.

Personally, I think "simulated intelligence" is more accurate.

Canada’s boycott of U.S. wines ‘causing devastating harm,’ California senator says
California senators don't get to tell me what to buy. Framing it as a "boycott" is just wrong, at least where I live. We have American booze on the shelves. I just don't want to buy American garbage anymore so I'm not doing it.

He's an arborist
What if there's a ... um ... protuberance on the bottom where the branch meets the trunk? What's the correct measuring procedure in that case?

Remote-controlled cockroach swarm can now breathe underwater

Calm down. It's probably not as dramatic as that. It's just that the billionaires need the AI cockroach swarms to deliver fresh children to their bunkers during the uprising. The humanoid and canine robots will do most of the exterminating.

That's hilarious! Imagine being this weak and pathetic.

I getting more and more enraged seeing self proclaimed leftists resorting to ghastly Gen AI to bastardise their rather humorous ideas.
OMG the irony of using AI to rail against the use of AI.

It worries me how much stuff I have on American hosted servers. Photos, email, authorizations for other services, documents, backups, etc. Access to all that seems to depend on the whims of a foreign leader. (I'm not American). If all it takes to get put on a list is disagree with him, I better at least make local backups.

Nova Launcher unashamedly inserts malware ads into your home screen now.
WTF is going on? I've never seen an ad in my Nova Launcher. I'll switch immediately if I ever see one. Did they add them to widgets? Does this only apply to the free version?

The side effects include filling orbit with space junk, crashing satellites to Earth, and blinding our ability to see meteors with a collision course for Earth. The side effects may not be predictable, but they're definitely measurable.
