#searxing — Public Fediverse posts

TRICK FOR PICKING random searx instances.

1) Bookmark 36 #searx instances, mapping six to SX1, another six to SX2, etc.

2) Use a six-sided pen like a dice by rolling it on your desk, twice. Once to pick SX1-6 and again to pick which bookmark in the list.

3) Happy #searxing over #Tor and #I2P!

Today, o/s decided not to wake from sleep.

We decided to hold the power button for 5 seconds to reset, however it corrupted #LUKS ability to read at least one #superblock!

Our o/s would not start.

A few hours of #searxing, including through our communications and this solution worked.

a) Boot a #KDE #liveUSB (or DVD),
b) run a disk check via #KDEPartitionManager, and
c) that's all folks!

What is the proper way to handle a #GNULinux that will not #wakeFromSleep?

If you look up a #dictionary definition of a word online, or in an online #thesaurus, there's a very high likelihood that the website will be served by #Amazon servers (to a lesser extent #Cloudflare). This means your understanding of a language can be tracked and used to #crossIdentify you, even if you are using #TorBrowser.

Also the search itself will likely go via Microsoft or Google, even when #searxing

Occasionally #searx for words you know how to spell, or you know the meaning of.

PSA: Before sharing that URL please inspect the #NetworkTab.

If the site is behind #Cloudflare or #Amazon or contains #Google trackers consider "#searxing" for and #sharing an article on another site. Your efforts will be rewarded in ways you might not immediately recognise.

Cheers
