This is my first time hearing of SearXNG. Did some poking. They don't have their own engine tech all all, eh? Just riding on top of other results?

Baby steps towards a return of curated truthful content? Nah, just CYA so they don't get sued.

Agreed. This is not the de Havilland Comet.

Thing about phobias is that they're irrational (usually). Good luck :)

Wafer scale material. Nothing to see here, move along.

Did you live?!

Statistically, flying on a 737MAX is safer than driving -- by such a huge margin that it isn't even funny.

Boeing has some work to do on some things. And the aviation industry isn't perfect.

The news cycle, on the other hand, is feeding hysteria because clicks. Seriously, more people die driving to and from the airport than they do on planes. By a huge margin. But because they're spread out into multiple tiny events...

Tron: Legacy soundtrack comes preloaded

Largely, this is likely a good thing. Don't let perfect be the enemy of better (than the status quo).

Probably just a reused template image they keep in reserve.

One day it'll have Mastodon and Lemmy and such. Maybe by 2030.

Usenet also largely became a venue for bootlegging and porn -- and due to the nature of the protocol, companies hosting Usenet services didn't want to have to store all of that shit. After about 1995, you didn't go there for discussion anymore. Eternal September messed it up. Lemmy is fortunate that you can't really use it for file sharing, a few images notwithstanding, or the same thing would happen.
