Same, would have definitely checked them out. Sounds like they did a really bad job at getting the word out there that they even existed.
I've been using duckduckgo instead of Google for a few years now and love it. I've gotten used to the shortcuts in it now and probably couldn't go back if I wanted to haha
Lol, you got me there :P
Proton Mail is a good alternative. A good thing to watch for a either a lack of or a very limited free account. This means they're not making money off harvesting your data. If it's free, you're the product.
Thanks! Will take a look.
That’s super cool! Hopefully it can be confirmed in other labs soon.
Then the next big hurdle will be figuring out a way to mass produce it in a cost-effective manner.
I use Apple Maps. In theory, it’s not tracking me. I guess I have no way to prove that, but at least they’re on the record saying they anonymize the data from it and don’t correlate routes to people.
Edit: here is some more info, took a second to find the link.
The heat capacity results indicated that the new model is suitable for explaining the superconductivity of LK-99. The unique structure of LK-99 that allows the minute distorted structure to be maintained in the interfaces is the most important factor that LK-99 maintains and exhibits superconductivity at room temperatures and ambient pressure.
If true, that would have world-changing implications. I tried looking, but didn't see a paper to go with it or a second lab to confirm it. Still, very cool and hopefully will be confirmed.
At this point, I'd say: Providing entertainment to the internet while also helping grow the fediverse
