Google Will Update Gulf of Mexico to 'Gulf of America' in Maps in c/technology

I’ve made a couple of Firefox extensions just for personal/fun stuff, might give this a shot.

Google's AI is using past tense to describe a sporting event that takes place in 3 days. And it knows who won too. in c/mildlyinfuriating

I just appreciate that DDG lets me turn this garbage off.

Google begins requiring JavaScript for Google Search in c/technology

Hah yeah I guess I combined those confusingly. It was both of those things hitting around the same time, I switched to FF and DDG.

You can already use vertical tabs, by the way. in c/firefox

Nice! I’ve been running the nightly for this, looking forward to switching back to regular Firefox.

I switched to DDG recently due to the manifest v3 changes and AI junk and have been really liking it. It feels like what Google used to be when it was good.

It’s now illegal for you to move, so it’s been nice knowing you.

I wish mine was like that. Mine just screams and doesn’t want to be picked up.

Is there a way to precisely locate a Qi charging coil on a device? (self.askelectronics)
 

I have a Snap Grip Luxe on the back of my Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition, which has wireless Qi charging but is not magnetic. On phones, the Snap Grip allows for passthrough wireless charging, so when I mounted it, I held my Kindle up to a wireless charging stand until I found the spot where it started charging, marked the top of the back with some tape, and mounted it roughly where I thought the charging coil might be (though there's some uncertainty because I don't know exactly where the charging hardware is inside my stand). It doesn't work.

It's possible this feature just doesn't work with the Kindle, but I have a new Kindle arriving soon and will have another shot at this, so I was curious if there was some way I can precisely locate and mark where the charging coil is on the back of my new Kindle to at least eliminate that factor. Any ideas?
