I mean sure, if you ignore the first 20 or so relevant links before that, you're right, that one does show up when searching for monkey (proof)

You can add literally any other word to the search and that one result disappears. Even bear monkey. Regardless of the fact that no one searches for just the word monkey, I find Kagi's rankings consistently prioritize more quality and informative content.

Comparing to other search engines, Google is obsessed with the movie The Monkey, Bing really wants you to watch Monkey Baby Bon Bon live what looks like a nightmare life, Brave gives an OK mix of content, still with a The Monkey focus, and Kagi gives you a really solid mix of results across the monkey spectrum for such a vague query (plus one whole link to an article about polar bears).

If the polar bear result specifically bothers you, you can report it to Kagi and I'm sure they'll fix it. I'm still happy with my choice though.

Edit: decided to check DDG as well - I'd written it off in my head as just Bing, but the results were slightly different - the Monkey Bon Bon nightmare fuel was pretty significantly demoted, and for better or worse, DDG was blissfully unaware of the movie The Monkey. Not a bad result overall.

I know it's a controversial take around these parts, but I've fallen in love with Kagi.

If I had to rank search engines by results, in my opinion/experience:

Kagi > Brave > Startpage/Google > DDG/Ecosia/Bing

Kagi/Brave/Startpage/DDG all offer privacy to some degree. I haven't really fucked with SearXNG though I'm sure its awesome.

if its possible to have Jellyfin read the name via a sub folder such as Movies/LinusISO/

It's possible. Just make a LinuxISO (Year) folder in your movies directory and it'll pick up the movie file within, regardless of name.

Naming only matters within folders if you have multiple versions.

For example, I'm incredibly confused about how you're supposedly to measure liquid laundry detergent with the cap. At least the kind that I have sits on it's side, so if you measure it with the cap it just leaks everywhere and makes a mess.

After pouring the detergent into the appropriate receptacle, toss the cap in with your laundry to be washed like everything else. No mess.

Yay for team blank screen... I think?

The entire basis for this is the assumption that goods are being transported using fossil fuels.

I prefer only testicles in my testicles.

To that end, I propose a new packaging system!

Libby is able to sync with your kindle, and then you just choose "send to Kindle" on your phone when checking a book out and the book will appear in your Kindle library.

If you have a Kindle, this is 100% the best way to read books.

.com is $15/yr for most domains, .place is $22/yr for renewals. Not sure where you're shopping or if you're eyeing some sort of premium domain, but generally it's cheaper.

I have both, a domain on "new" TLD (like .place) that is my main but has hiccups on certain websites, and a cheap .com that I have tied to SimpleLogin for generating per-site throwaway addresses. This setup works great for me.

Talk about putting your money where your mouth is- good to see them implementing this technology!

I assume that's why there's a 95% rejection rate, they're just fumbling to find any mechanics that haven't already been used in other games.

 

 

Pretty much the only thing I think AI could be useful for - forecasting the weather based off tracking massive amounts of data. I look forward to seeing how this particular field of study is improved.

Bonus points, AI weather modeling, for once, saves energy relative to physics models. Pair it with some sort of light weight physical model to keep the hallucinations at bay, and you've got a good combo.

 

I'm very interested to see how countries like Pakistan can lead the way in the clean energy revolution out of a necessity for cheap electricity rather than a desire for clean power.

Their electric grid and economy is such that they can optimize around solar rather than trying to force solar to fit into their existing system. Necessity is the mother of invention, and places like Pakistan will probably be able to teach us all a thing or two about how to develop economies around the Sun.

 

The main culprit, according to the report, is unsustainable agricultural practices, which are responsible for 80% of forest loss. These techniques, which include heavy use of chemical inputs, pesticides and water diversion, also erode soil, diminish water supplies and contaminate ecosystems.
