Tangent: maybe we should classify FPS by more vectors, such as progression of gunplay (Doom 2016 is a masterpiece there, Titanfall 2 a failure), strength of story (most military-themed FPS are cringe-fests in terms of story), Lore/Tech (Bioshock’s Steampunk theme always turned me off, for example), suspense (Prey excels there, COD bores) … and many more.
This way, we might actually find decent FPS that each of us enjoy based on our tastes. <3
Total Immersion Killer.
Have the same issue with them. I recently churned from Kagi after being a paying Pro customer. 10,-/month is simply too much. I’m paying for email (1,-/month) and web hosting (1,-/month) and web search should be in that price range to make it an attractive offer for people.
I wrote to Kagi saying as much when I churned (also criticizing that most of their changelog messages are about LLM updates for “Ultimate” customers), but they responded saying that they believe in their offer and that the trajectory of new users signing up gives them confidence.
I am, however, not willing to shell out Streaming Service level pricing (services that stream hundreds of GB to me every month) for some web searches.
As much as it pains me due to Brave being involved in the whole crypto scam business and their CEO apparently being another a**hole tech fascist, I am using Brave Search for now. Its results were not inferior when I compared them to Kagi and I don’t need 95% of all the extra fluff that Kagi offers.
As soon as there’s an offer for private search results with their own index that is not censored nor ad-driven, that company (maybe Kagi!) will have my money. But it needs to be commodity-priced like mail or hosting.
POSIX and shell functions can get us very far indeed. At least, not everthing’s an object in Bash. :P
I am also pretty confused about this. Any idea why the usual releases aren’t available?
That’s what happens when you rehire the local DVP during reunification.
Use “free” Google services so that any pseudo-governmental entity can get full access to your mails, backups, photos, contacts, location … but worry about stuff in device memory. Yes. A sane approach.
