These are pretty much the thoughts I had.

Leave the flying spaghetti monster out of this.
It was a bad idea to get out of the oceans if you ask me.
Maybe the great filter is crabs dragging others down to their level.
There is probably a neat wget oneliner that could crawl everything on the open web. The real challenge is how to index all the information. That might be a neat Perl oneliner.
Cleansing as a pretentious melancholic.
It’s a meta search engine. It queries other search engines and compiles you results.
AskJeeves should be rebooted with a LLM
DDG, but ever so often I have to use bangs to Google or some dedicated sites. Been trying out my own instance of the SearchX meta search engine but honestly it’s not that much of a difference except it lags. I’ve been using ChatGPT way more for direct questions instead of using search words and sifting through the results, with the risk of hallucination so still need to double check on important stuff. Copilot sort of works but I don’t know why I’m not comfortable with it. Too bad Gemeni seems to be a dud so far. I’d love to see a FOSS language model that can be tweaked for personal interests and custom commands for external APIs and that gives references to the answers.
FairEmail. I got fed up with the Gmail app injecting ads despite I pay for storage and services. FairEmail is not beautiful by modern standards but with some tweaking I can live with it, no problem.
I’ve got intelligible but that’s about it
I say all good boys live forever in our hearts. I know all my previous dogs do. <3
It is reliable and family friendly, comfortable size, no spectacular character but also no big downs.
Use whatever works for you. Don’t take selection advice from people that make their operating system of choice a crusade and identity.
I think the “people are free to believe what they want to believe” is a mistake. This is the very statement that relativitises opinions and belief systems with facts and creates the illusion that they are all equal.
Look at the “facts don’t care about feelings” crowd that believe wholeheartedly that statements pandering to their feelings are facts and disregard any actual facts as fake news. I don’t think it’s because they decided one day to pick and choose what is a fact and what is not, but they actually can’t tell that there is a difference in opinions, beliefs and facts in the first place.
People need to accept that sometimes the truth is painful, that it contradicts what you want it to be, and worst of all - that you may have been wrong.
Edit: that said, I think people are free to believe whatever they want to believe when it comes to unprovable existential esoterica like personal values, afterlife, religion, whatever. As long they accept it is a personal belief and not an universal truth.
Fazer Blå milk chocolate. Ghost chocolate. I buy it and then it is gone.
I think there is a Junji Ito novel with people raining from the skies. It is, as expected, quite unpleasant.
The right side.
I haven’t looked at the Lemmy API, but generally speaking hard or not is subjective. Try it, get your hands dirty. Take a stab at testing how it works. Set some very basic targets. Split it up into tasks. If one task proves more complicated than expected, split it up into smaller tasks. If you get stuck, move to another task. You can always get back to those later. Things fall in place with experience.
