I tried Mullvad's DNS service and found that it messed up sites that rely on geography based DNS routing. For example, I'd get sent to a service's servers in Singapore instead of the US. This caused some noticeable lag.

You can buy a jacket that is (mostly) made out of cotton, and then wax it yourself. It’ll probably take you a few hours to do, but it can be done inexpensive. AliExpress has some cheap waxed jackets too.
Not direct advice. But I've switched from "technical" waterproof fabrics that use DWR chemicals, to waxed fabrics. I've found that after a year of use, the technical fabrics lose their ability to repel water, and I can't get them back no matter what I do. Waxed fabrics are heavier and don't breathe as well, but you can reapply wax to get them to repel water again.
If anyone tries this recipe, let us know what you think! And please share any tweaks you make.

They announced a few months ago that they would partner with Brave to surface Brave search results too. The CEO of Brave is known to be homophobic. People got mad, and Kagi’s response was that they are too small to be picky, and have to focus on search quality.
I don’t think it’s all money laundering. NFTs sure, but this seems more like the MAGA hats he sold to all of his fans.
Maybe democrats should take a page out of his book and sell tangible items instead of just asking for donations.
Smaller keyboards:
- Encourage you to move your hands less. Part of this is allowing your mouse to be closer, especially if you’re right handed.
- Aesthetically look cleaner and less cluttered
yup. if you're running untrusted apps on your phone, make sure to turn off background refresh AND notifications. apps can run arbitrary code when they receive a push message. usually its so they can provide a better notification for the user, but they can collect data and phone back to the mothership too.
I made the purchase. Let’s see how it works out in a couple weeks.
How are you liking Controld vs NextDNS?
