That’s a lot of security theater to protect $10-worth of chocolate-like substance.

Is there a built in serrated cutter? If so, use that. If not, use box, it tends to be sturdier than the lid.

Going directly there does not count as a search - you should be fine on that count. Again, you can test for free with their 100 free searches if you’re concerned :)

I use Kagi! I average about 1,000 searches/month, so well in excess of the lower tier, but I started with 300 and there’s nothing inherently wrong with it as long as you only use it that often. I’ve grown accustomed to using search instead of bookmarks, and doing simple things like math in the browser instead of a dedicated app, which could help prune some of that usage.

You can use the 100 free searches to gauge how long it will last you.

I personally don’t have any gripes with it, between the ability to rank sites and their new initiative allowing folks to report slop sites, it seems to consistently keep me satisfied.

They do have a feedback site (https://kagifeedback.org/) where you can request new features and file bug reports. The advantage of a paid service is they are very attentive to user requests (within reason). Between their blog and changelog you can gauge how things are developing.

My budget has the flexibility that I’m happy to pay for a service that I use every day, which is aligned with my priorities. For those who don’t have that flexibility, Brave functionally (but perhaps not ethically) is a strong second best option. They’ve been copying Kagi’s homework for a while now and can do some of the same page ranking, etc.

Anyone have a good source of printable toilet-paper-with-super-glue-style stickers that seem to come on everything I purchase? The kind that’s impossible to remove in one go, you’ve gotta scrape at it for at least 8 hours.

I have to think they weren’t particularly common. If I were completely ignorant and happened to stumble across a giant fossilized femur sticking out if a rock or at some sort of traveling circus, I’d probably guess giant. If I were somewhat familiar with living creatures I’d probably guess elephant/mammoth.

I just leave a gallon of milk in the back seat of my car and crack it open when the milk turns solid - does that count?

Conservatives often have two key defining characteristics that they build their entire belief system around:

A lack of empathy, and a fear of “other” individuals and cultures.

These lead to a whole host of outcomes, and vary by individual. When it comes to travel I often see it expressed in how vacation is viewed.

Many conservatives I know view vacation as being 100% about them - relaxing, eating their favorite food, seeing their favorite sights, doing their favorite things. They do not care about leaning about someone else’s experience or culture because they cannot empathize with them, and the xenophobia means they’re scared of how to even broach the subject.

No, it’s a shit diplomacy joke.

Unless there’s a particular feature you’re after, like following microblogs, or better mod controls… Meh, it’s all about the same for the end user.

I shifted to PieFed because I like the direction they’re heading, the flexibility/volume of potential contributors Python provides, and to just generally show support for more options in the fediverse.

PieFed features come more quickly but the apps/front ends are slower to adopt them so it’s not all sunshine and rainbows but the basic functions generally work the same no matter where you are.
