  • I wonder what the solution to a capitalist privacy nightmare is.... /s

  • They talk about the name in the initial announcement back in 2023 where they link to many blogs discussing the topic.

    https://blog.kagi.com/small-web

    The term is a bit broader than those protocols and Kagi is far from the first to use it; it certainly isn't a "hijack" as if it was the name if another project or something. 'Small Web' isn't them claiming to own the concept of the small web, or that it's somehow only accessible through them... It's just a feature; search, as a curated product they offer and maintain.

    It's just what they named the lens, because it's a lens for the 'small web' as they defined it; like the other lenses. They aren't hijacking the word 'academia' by having an academia lens...

    Sure, maybe they could slap 'Kagi' in front of 'Small Web' just to be sure, but I doubt anyone will confuse the concept of noncommercial small websites with a paid service...

    Also

    In general hijacking of names is one of the dangers very specific to our modern era and not really a problem before the Internet.

    Neat fact: you can trace the roots of trademark law back like 7000 years ...

  • Worth noting that when it was initially launched, it didn't have such an emphasis on AI.

    It just so happens that noncommercial small sites tend to be slop-free, and there's a big demand for that, so now that's how they're marketing it.

  • Lix is an alternative nix interpreter that's lesbian themed, and I'm pretty sure that roughly half of what I learned while moving to NixOS was written by puppygirls (may be an underestimate...)

  • this left-right divide is killing our country

    So you want the nazi-simp vote. Got it.

  • I prefer to buy them by the gram in baggies from a guy in an alley wearing a trenchcoat

  • That looks like it would burn a hole through my stomach and my intestines and my pelvis and the floor and foundation and maybe a few layers of earth

  • They're doing it for a month or something. And I don't think they ever said "last chance" and if they did it was hyperbole (or specific to some instance not in general)

  • Payment processors are a blight

  • I'm pretty anti webtech but even I've written GUIs in wails. I hate electron so much, but what makes it worse is that there are so many better options. The people that keep pushing it are stupid*

  • 🙂->💀

  • Distro governance drama?

    *peaks my head in from NixOS

    How... Quaint. (JK)

    I wish them all the best. Manjaro was one of my first distros and it's really fallen off in recent years.

  • The problem with betting against it is that "the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent"

  • Oh sure, you get upvotes; but when I cook and eat three twins,...
