Feb 27, 2024 - Bangs upgrades, user control enhancements, and colour code widget #
Features
- We've made further progress in enhancing Bangs in the UI. And following the release of our open-source bags repository, the community has contributed by adding and fixing dozens of bangs already! Additionally, we upgraded all bangs to use HTTPS where possible.
- To further enhance user control, we now indicate when there are blocked results for your search queries #2698 @Fernandez)
- We've introduced a new colour code search widget. It displays the selected colour, allows to pick an alternative, and to convert between HSL and RGB formats #118 @yokoffing)
Kagi for Safari 2.2.2
- If you were having issues with Kagi for Safari, make sure you are running the latest version and that 'Engine to redirect' option in extension settings is set to the one used by Safari.
- [Changed] Adopted monochrome icon for toolbar/menu to match Safari icon styles

Announcements
-
Kagi Bangs repository is now open source (thanks @Browsing6853 for suggesting this in #481). You can now refine the accuracy of existing bangs or introduce new ones for everyone to enjoy on Kagi Search. Your contributions will enhance the search experience for users worldwide.
-
Fresh from Kagi Labs: We're shipping an alpha version of Kagi Sidekick, a search and "chat with content" solution for websites.
Kagi Sidekick will offer instant site search results, and on-demand AI generated summaries, by tapping directly into the website's content. As a bonus, the website content will automatically (after opt-in) surface as a part of Kagi search index.
You can see Sidekick live in action in Kagi's documentation.
We'd love to hear your feedback, and how would you use it on your website. We will plan the launch based on incoming demand.
Visit the Sidekick project landing page to learn more and register your interest for a beta invite. If you'd like to participate in building projects like this, Kagi Labs is hiring part-time contributors.

Claims 7-10% performance improvement on an old AMD FX thing. No information about the baseline though; whether it's the terrible Snap or Firefox's official binary package. I suspect it's the former because it has known performance issues IIRC and the latter has quite good compiler optimisations already (LTO+PGO making most of the difference).
When I built Firefox for x86_64-v3, I saw no measurable improvement over x86_64-v1 in speedometer. I didn't dare to build the most security critical application on my system with unsafe compiler optimisations though..
Security-critical C and memory safety bugs. Name a more iconic duo...
I'd have kinda preferred for public disclosure to have happened after the fix propagated to distros. Now we get to hurry the patch to end-users which isn't always easily possible. Could we at least have a coordinated disclosure time each month? That'd be great.
More likely, people will stop using YouTube at all
Hahaha, no.
Voting is another concept that would become unhackable overnight
No. Voting on the blockchain is an even worse idea than money on the blockchain.
In many cases, there are good reasons why these things are done they way they are. I have yet to see a software system that is better at preventing voter fraud than humans looking at your government-issued ID at a poll site and humans overseeing other humans manually counting votes.
A single actor might be able to commit voter fraud in the order of dozes or hundreds of votes perhaps but with a digital voting system based on blockchain, they could do so on the order of thousands or even millions by compromising end-user devices used for voting or buy enough work/stake/whatever to perform a 51% attack.
Same goes for money btw. Our current system is by far not a perfect one but removing the ability for governments to i.e. freeze accounts of bad actors is not a boon.
A uBlock Origin shield! Amazing.
Original price doesn't matter, you need to compare it against current new offerings. A drive like that, I'd buy for 8-10€/TB at max. because current new HDD pricing is 15€/TB at the low end.
What you also need is SMART output. Watch out for high uncorrectable errors, writes and whatever. I'd never buy a drive without having seen its SMART data.
I'd downvote that comment too. It adds nothing to the discussion and is deliberately confrontative and superficial.

Yikes.
Mit ihren "kriminellen Aktionen und penetranter Rücksichtslosigkeit" sorgte die Klimaschutzgruppe nicht für eine Steigerung der Akzeptanz für den Klimaschutz.
Richtig. Ist nicht deren Ziel, Brudi.
Die netteren Hinweise auf den Klimaschutz wurden ignoriert. Protest ist die einzig noch verbleibende Möglichkeit, überhaupt noch etwas zu erreichen, bevor es zu spät ist.
I used to not but I wish I did. I want to know where pictures were taken. Photo album software like Immich can also make cool maps out of your photos this way and group photos by location.
As long as you're not sharing the pictures with anyone, there is no loss of privacy whatsoever in doing this. I don't see any reason to generally label it as "not great for privacy".
When sharing publicly, you need to be careful of course and run the images through an EXIF metadata stripper.
