The Cask of Amontillado?

So there isn’t actually a problem with GIMP.

Owned up to the mistake, then suggested alternatives while they were finishing Maps, which had been rushed due to the launch of Android and Jobs not wanting a competitor’s CEO sitting on Apple’s board.

I have no idea what you’re on about messaging. I can use it just fine.

Messages simply cannot be removed from their context and retain their meaning. According to Paul McCartney, as you say, this is simply a song about opposites.

I say yes
You say no
You say stop
And I say go, go, go….

Nobody’s perfect.

I don’t know of any MMS problem, but I also don’t generally text outside of iMessages. Maps was a cockup, and Apple owned it.

I’d forgotten about the bootloader. I only dual booted with XP for a few months before wiping the drive and dedicating that machine to Mint.

It’s blasphemy in some circles, but I never recommend Ubuntu. Mint seems much more straightforward and easier to make it feel like Windows for new users. There’s a Debian-based version if you prefer it.

I run Mint (Ubuntu version) on a couple of old laptops. But I use Debian on a Linode (Akamai) cloud server for a little hobby project. It’s a good distro.

It isn’t all that difficult to install a dual-boot setup, so you can choose at startup which OS to use.

Firefox will let you whitelist sites that are allowed to your location. Just whitelist those sites. Or use a search engine that doesn’t respect privacy, say Google or StartPage.

That may be a feature of DDG. In respecting privacy, it may be ignoring your location. Since I never let sites have access to location data if I can prevent it, I don’t know.

I haven’t noticed it appearing unasked in internet search results, and I never use the desktop search except for on-device queries.

I don’t think Spaz is thinking at all. That was how Reddit imploded.

DuckDuckGo is my default search tool. It’s great.

And slow down search even more?

I’m sure they are. But they haven’t yet. And after this, they might at least borrow a page from Apple and make sure it works first.

Wow, I haven’t used Lynx since the 90s. Admittedly, a text-only browser is an attractive idea.

It’s an interesting concept. But right now, Google Search is the best argument in favor of Bing.

I’m not planning to switch from DuckDuckGo, but then I wasn’t planning to switch from Google either. Glad to know that Bing is a good alternative — if I feel like trusting Microsoft.

Did anyone actually try to read this article? It’s gibberish.
