J.G. Ballard never ceases to amaze, from "Studio 5, The Stars" published in 1961, 60 years before GenAI hit the mainstream,

The year is 2023 , and I'm now paying for a search engine.
I've been using self-hosted SearXNG proxied through a VPN on Tailscale for the last 6 months and it works well. But after trying kagi.com over the past week I've really come to appreciate all its features; more accurate results, instant summaries, quick answers, and different "lenses".
May go back to SearXNG at some-point, but we'll see.

It ran MPI-POVRay, but was more about the journey than the destination.

Some people think about the Roman Empire multiple times a day, while I'm over here thinking about 1980s Toyota Celicas.
