Did somebody say weevils?

I hear your and generally agree, but honestly the cost of a fridge conking out isn't just the fridge, theres probably a bunch of food in there as well at risk, so maybe 2-3x repurchasing.

And literally every new washer dryer comes with free delivery and install.

Mapquest is likely using this same dataset and mixing it with what's available in OSM, unless they have some reporting service.

Except it still relies on closed source indexes to do anything useful, and they are actively trying to block scrapers.

Kagi calls them lenses, and there's a bunch. You can change the default by selecting the current one (in my case below, "Small Web")

They're fine in a pinch, they used to be a Google clone but in the past couple of years the quality has gone down and it seems they mostly source from Bing (though they dont provide statistics) (https://support.startpage.com/hc/en-us/articles/4522435533844-What-is-the-relationship-between-Startpage-and-your-search-partners-like-Google-and-Microsoft-Bing)

Since DDG also primarily uses Bing, it does not provide any added value to my searchflow, so I'm not sure what is required to block AI in private searches on Startpage.

"It's better than nothing" was true back when the alternative was to do nothing. Now there is no benefit to natural gas. It has no place in new buildings, and older buildings should be trying to remove it as quickly as possible.

They're scummy crypto bros, but in my anecdotal testing, their search engine is more likely to turn up useful results than DDG.

They are, however, a fallback to the fallback in my search flow, so they get used like 1x/year. There would be little benefit to searching another Bing clone after DDG, and I have no interest in searching Google, so this is where I've landed.

Would be happy to expand the list if you have suggestions for search engines, and the associated codes for blocking AI summaries in private searches.

These are the ones I use (Kagi needs to be logged in, but you could use Privacy Pass with their extension for anonymous searching - I haven't tested if it needs any extra configuration to block AI with Privacy Pass)

Name: Kagi
URL: <Copy Session Link from a logged in window>
Keyword: @k
Suggestion Url: https://kagisuggest.com/api/autosuggest?q=%s

Name: DuckDuckGo.noai
URL: https://noai.duckduckgo.com/?start=1&q=%s
Keyword: @d
Suggestion URL: https://ac.duckduckgo.com/ac/?type=list&q=%s

Name: Brave.noai
URL: https://search.brave.com/search?summary=0&q=%s
Keyword: @b
Suggestion URL: https://search.brave.com/api/suggest?q=%s

The start=1 parameter on DDG keeps it from doing the first run popups when searching in private windows.

Also, I haven't tried but you can theoretically mix and match suggest URLs with different search engines if you wanted to somehow decouple search suggestions from actual searches.

Edit: on second thought, that's effectively just doubling the number of entities who know what you're searching for. I see no privacy benefit to decoupling. Perhaps something to do if one engine's suggestions are pure trash.

There were dozens split during the first few years of AA/ACP rollout, but that was like 2015-ish. Haven't seen a car locked to just one in ages.

$500000000 says they gave Claude a list of names which may or may not even be registered voters, and asked it to identify the non-citizens, and it just spat back a new list of names that they're now sharing broadly as somehow proof of fraud.
