So what should I look for when buying a sharpening stone? I was planning to buy one to sharpen the knives we have at home, but not sure what I should get and where to get one for a decent price.

To use the discounts?
It used to be pretty good, being able to get a full week if meals for 20 dollars or so. But now the discounts are spread over multiple boxes and it’s not really worth it anymore

Do you mean ‘pores instead of gills’ ? I think all mushrooms produce spores, no?

Joseph Joestar?

I learned to put both my palms around the lid, fingers crossing over my hands and then press hard inwards. This will pop the lid and then you can easily twist it open.

Useful if you don’t have any utensil nearby

What does this mean in practice? You don’t get a post-caffeine crash if you take it together with L-theanine?

I didn’t know that, very useful. I suppose this is only for using other search engines like google, bing, etc… right?

Or can it also search immediately on other websites like metacritic, rotten tomatoes by using bangs?

Ublacklist works with searx? Good to know, I want to try this myself.

Your search results must be so clean and useful.

That’s why I still prefer searx. Duck duck go is basically just Bing results, right?

Seems like you also have the option to use the open source mixtral and llama3 models.

Also, if all the requests from their users go through their api request, i suppose is much more private than using your own account.

I’m not sure how they plan to monetise this though. Ai chat is not that cheap actually.

Oh, so it shows up between your search results? Sounds pretty horrible. Good that it’s toggle-able.

Is that something that would be blocked by an adblocker? Or are you talking about the shopping tab? I have not used that myself in duckduckgo

That would’ve been kinda interesting.

I think you can use kagi on as many of your own devices as you want right? I suppose you could share your account with multiple people (probably against their tos, I guess) and make it more private that way. Can’t really tell much with a bunch of searches from multiple people and you paying whomever is the owner of the account.

Yeah, this makes it also quite a bit less interesting to me. Perhaps it would be better if they could use donations and have a free instance for everyone. But I suppose that earns much less, and having people host their own instances does not seem to be on the roadmap for them.

I also use SearxNG for all my searches at the moment. But the instance I use is not that fast. Might have to look into hosting one myself.

Yeah, I used it for a long while in the past. Now mostly on searxNG, but I still like the bangs and quick results from ddg. Kagi is also pretty good, but feels a bit too pricey in my country.

Hyprland seems pretty popular these days. I want to use it (or sway) but didn’t have the chance to figure out how to run it with my nvidia card

Yeah. He even has a server rack at home. But still uses windows for all his devices. Luckily he’s not crazy enough to run windows server.

That sounds pretty nice actually. I’m based in Sydney, but I don’t really find anything like a computer club nearby.

Maybe i just don’t know how to search for it.

I’m running NixOs as a daily driver for a while now. It’s the first time I want to actively convince people to try out a distro. But then I realise most people around me would not want to bother learning how to configure it.
