ok, so seems like I will have to use a double bang then. It does not seem match ddg bangs 1:1 though. And some don’t seem to be working correctly on my instance (E.g. !!mc for metacritic redirects to the wrong page)

I use the closest one to me from searx.space. I suppose hosting an instance yourself will give you the best response times, but it always still takes a moment while it searches through multiple search engines. If you only care about the results of one engine (e.g. google) then you could disable the others. Might speed it up a bit.
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?
Yeah, this makes me feel like I don’t really want to go there. It’s frustrating, because it seems like when I follow the routine of a ‘normal’ person. I tend to get very tired and anxious over time. But If I want to find some routine more suited to myself, it will be practically impossible to survive.
That definitely helps. I find it difficult to get myself to exercise sometimes, but walking is something I can enjoy.
Yeah, I think I’m in the digging out stage now. It seems to be very difficult for me to take care of myself while I have to work for income.
Thanks for the suggestions! I will look into the book, and the website is great (I made something like this myself in my linked notes)
Therapy seems to be a bit harder for me. I didn’t have anyone with specific experience, and found that the typical talk therapy does not really benefit me (I already spent years researching this myself, so it does not really help to have somebody else repeat it to me). I’ll try to find somebody, but seems like it’s quite difficult.
I think the actual rule is: ‘no sexual misconduct’ aka rape, harrasment, etc.
Many of the rules are simplified for the course of 10 days. (easy to have no sexual misconduct if you have no sexual activities at all)
Same with the rule ‘No talking’. The actual rule is ‘Don’t speak harsh words, lies, or deception’. Which is again much easier if you simply don’t speak at all.
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.
I feel like WFH actually helps me because I have more control over my time and can actually take breaks instead of having to pretend to be busy all the time. But in reality, I did spend much more time just in front of my desk and forcing myself to look at my screen, even though I’m not doing anything useful at the moment.
Often I was working, having meetings and eating, all at my desk. And then in the evening, I keep sitting at my desk and just start browsing or gaming. After a while, it’s no wonder one becomes depressed.
For some reason I feel it’s unfair though. Like why do I need to spend my free time meditating, doing sports, and maintaining my physical and mental wellbeing, just to be able to keep working for 8 hours a day? Isn’t it enough that they already get 8 hours? Even worse for people that used to commute for multiple hours each day in the past.
What’s your experience with SSRIs? I never wanted to even try because I feel I would just get used to them after a while and then be stuck paying for medication without really feeling better.
This was pretty much me in university and during the first years of my work. It just feels like endless postponing of actually doing the things you want. But it never comes.
I’m starting to wonder if I just have much less capacity (in terms of energy) than other people.
Yeah, I was thinking the same. Seems like he just smashed through the wall.
