I haven’t seen many public diatribes against Kagi, but the ones I have seem to be like this person. They complain very publicly based on their perception of Vlad, spend their days in Discord fomenting drama (which seems like something only children should be doing) and are so fragile that they think getting measured emails from someone they went after publicly is a form of harrassment. It’s absurd.

I can only hope this was written by a teenager, otherwise it’s a pretty rough way to live as an adult.

The starter tier is only $5/month for 300 searches, which is more than enough for your average user.

I can get not wanting to pay for search, but I wouldn’t call $5 “very pricey”. In fact, I’d be so bold as to call it reasonable.

Bro’s getting mad at a Farside cartoon.

How dare you undercut their platitude with reasoning.

And unfortunately many of those still operate as for-profit companies and extract wealth via administrative fees and executive salaries.

You could also just try turning it on to see if it has power. I don’t see how the light is actually useful for this.

Seems like the conclusion of the article ends up admitting luck plays a large role. From the article you linked: “It is important to note that this research can not explain why a particular individual does well or poorly financially. Luck, timing, parents, choice of spouse and many other factors play important roles in shaping an individual’s circumstances.”

I’m choosing to hope this is facetious.

Yeah, I’ve used everything from Ubuntu to Arch and can use it just fine. That’s not my point. It’s hard to argue against that software discoverability is worse and implementation/documentation is inconsistent. To find a program for windows, I just need to search for what it does and multiple options show up without using a store or knowing a repo name. Installing is as easy as running an exe (no dependencies, or distro limitations, or editing specific files buried in the system).

I am no fan of Windows by any means, but I never have to worry about edge cases. I will always be able to do what I’m aiming for without fiddling with Wine or anything else.

I personally enjoy knowing I can easily search for software I need, know it will run and install without issues and I won’t have to fuck around with poorly documented systems when something inevitably breaks.

Sure Windows pisses me off and sucks, but it’s still simpler to deal with.

How much is HBO paying this guy to get into petty Twitter arguments?

Naturally.

It would be less awkward to pull out a phone, take a picture of someone and pull up their info, adding their biometric data to some random company’s servers (possibly against their wishes) instead of just asking what their name is? Seems way less awkaward and more reasonable to just say she has facial ephasia than do all that.

They’ll release information on JFK and aliens, but this Tupac shit has to stay buried forever.

WhatsApp is a bit different since many countries use that instead of SMS. Suppose it depends on the culture of where you’re applying. Always pays to use caution though.

It’s a pretty common scam. Legit employers do not communicate through those services.

Y’all are taking The Far Side way too seriously.

Weird how everyone doesn’t have the same tastes.

Funnily enough, this panel is a perfect allegory for this community.

MMA should really just update the rules to allow kissing at this point. Uh, I mean they should allow mouth grapples.
