    My main problem with DDG is that it doesn’t show the dates of results. A lot of the time, I need to know that to get the information I need. I used it for a couple of years, but I was constantly forced to go back to Google or Bing to get the information I needed.

    I found Kagi earlier this year and tried it out, and it’s as close to perfect as you can get, IMO. I really can’t recommend it enough. It’s like being back to “the before times” when Google was king, with the addition of many other features. It’s a paid service, and I’m more than happy to do so for something like this. No tracking, a ton of features, very well designed, and results that never fail. I’ve shared my account with family and friends, and everyone has mentioned how good it is after trying it.

    Sorry if it feels like I’m a shill for it, I’m just super happy with it and really feel like everyone deserves to know about it.

    I’m not knowledgeable about this, but here’s my uneducated guess:

    They might just think it’s the prey biting back. Snakes generally have poor eyesight (of course, there are differences between species). And they’re so focused on the jump to catch their prey and subdue them as quickly as possible that they just bite down and kinda hope for the best for a bit before they realize.






  • My family decided many years ago to give up presents to everyone but the kids. It really helps with getting a nicer christmas feeling, both due to lowered stress and financially. Right now, the only kids are my half-brother and my sisters daughter, so it’s just two presents for each adult to think about. We spend money on better and more food on both Christmas and New Years Eve.








  • It’s surely genes, at least in part. Genes + health and drinking etiquette (keeping hydrated, eating well before, during and after, etc) all contribute. In my experience, genes play a huge part in it. I have friends, that eat like shit and have bad health in general, that are able to drink more than anyone else yet don’t really get hung over. Some of them only drink a couple of times a year, so I’m sure it’s not just tolerance.
