I’m not sure if this is really feasible (even though I’d be happy to see a working libre search engine). The problem I see is that a search engine is incredibly expensive to run, which makes it hard to maintain servers on a donation model.

Yet it would be interesting to hear, why this shocks you so much. :)

Is it because you don’t think search engines are a service worth paying for or because Google, Bing, DDG … are free?

The problem with all those search providers is: Someone still has to pay for infrastructure. You can either donate/pay for the service or accept ads and tracking.

(I know that YaCy works a bit differently, but honestly even though I really like the idea of the system: This “novel” search engine is almost 20 years old now and never really worked very good.)

Bienvenue!

Grundlast ergibt in einem Energiesystem, das hauptsächlich von EE versorgt wird, keine Sinn mehr.

Ich verstehe diesen Einwurf nicht so ganz. Die Frage ist ja nicht, ob Grundlast „Sinn ergibt“, sie existiert eben. Klar, man kann mit Smart-Grid-Technik etwas dazu beitragen, dass sie über den Tag „abgeflacht“ wird, aber sie bleibt ja dennoch.

Wait until you hear about these things called “books”…

Do you also need my mother’s maiden name?

Du hast halt oben mit der StVO argumentiert…

So the law works.
