I use Startpage and am happy with it. Yes it uses Google, but Google can't track you as they can only see that the search came from the Startpage server. You also don't get any of the AI summary or sponsored link bullshit. Beyond that, you could try SearXNG which can aggregate results from many engines.

One time I brought a horse into a bar and they called the cops to kick me out. I can't believe comedians didn't warn me I wasn't allowed to do that irl. We really do live in a society

If USB4 is so good, why isn't there USB4 2?

Keymonk. It actually still mostly works if you find an old apk, I'm using it now. The suggestion bar is broken and it's a little buggy, but god most of the time it still flies, security risks be damned.

Keyboard 69 was another option, but it's also abandoned and I found it much more bloated and buggy.

What I wouldn't give for a good open source two finger swiping keyboard...

If you're looking to rent for the day, you would never pick 3 cars over 1. And if you already own the 3 cars, you wouldn't go out of your way to rent another one. I don't see how a parking charge would change this, unless it was far heavier than this proposal is.

Additionally, think about how many full 9-seat vans there are in Paris. Think about how many single-occupant SUVs there are. I think the benefit here is pretty clear.

Article says they are tripling the cost, and 9 is more than 3, so...no.

Do you have a source for him moving to restrict sales? I see there was a House bill about that a couple weeks ago, but it didn't involve Biden.

I'm on android so maybe it's different, but I find it works consistently if I swipe in from the very leftmost edge of the screen.
