    Lemmy: I don’t know, but I wouldn’t trust any bike helmet that I can’t compile myself from source. It’s best to just stay home behind (real) firewalls so the Big Bike doesn’t target you for your striped Linux socks.

    I’m not joking one bit when I say my Google results were several times more accurate 10 years ago, maybe even 15. Using Google is a chore now. Sketchy SEO is a major reason I hate searching for anything on the Internet these days, but ads and fake content made it downright miserable.

        More and more often I find myself clicking on my original text because Google decided it knows better than I do what I’m looking for.

      I wonder if we need to abandon the internet as it currently exists as a whole and start over from first principles and license all the software in such a way that prevents shareholders from profiting. After religion, that’s the main thing ruining global society at the moment, is shareholder profits.

    By the way, and I understand this is mostly about the joke. But getting a good bike helmet is really important, and there are reasons to buy a new one like every 4-5 years.

    Virginia Tech does extensive independent testing of bike helmets every year, really worth looking into if you’re going to buy one.
