Tried compatibility mode already?

Check out WhoSampled. It’s the largest resource regarding samples/covers.

Thanks for clarification and great that this is not included in project, but couldn’t someone change the server side code and somehow see more info that goes through?

I know there is that HTML check in https://searx.space/ to see if search interface code is not heavily modified, but on server side anything could go on.

If requests are encrypted in a way that searxng does not see contents then it probably is not trivial to do, but there always is a possibility something clever could be done.

Aren’t all search queries available to whoever hosts an instance? In my eyes this is much worse to privacy and a much bigger risk unless you really know who is behind your chosen instance. I would trust some a company a bit more with safeguarding this information so it does not leak to some random guy.

The Book of Unwritten Tales comes to mind. It’s nowhere near as grandiose as any of your described games, but I fondly remember it being a very charming and wholesome experience. If that’s the feeling you seek, you might enjoy it.

Any reason why Firefox is not under Browser section?

I would personally also add original KeePass, Notepad++ and ShareX (Maybe also Greenshot). These are Windows only, but great pieces of software.

It was clearly a joke, I agreed with your comment :)

Some people think there is this magical thing called canon. If something is canon and you heavily dislike it, it messes up your enjoyment for whole franchise and you no longer can enjoy previous entries that you grew up with.

I didn’t like it. You want to tell me that my opinion differs from majority and most people like this trash? Preposterous.

Besides the MAC lookup suggestion, have you tried to simply find hostname in local DNS by reverse IP lookup, maybe that would shed some light.

Not sure if there is anything useful, but in browser just check site source, maybe there is something useful there that could help with identification. Does site have certificate? It might include info that would help with identification. Do the standard browser network trace via dev tools F12, maybe something useful appears there.

In nmap you can attempt to guess OS, try that. Additionally it might be possible to get hostname as well.

And have you checked your router to see if this connection is connected to your Wi-Fi AP or Ethernet to narrow things down? If it is not possible to determine this from router, simply connect your main PC to Ethernet, disable AP in router settings and check if IIS site is still up. If it is not, enable AP again, does it come back early or it takes some time?

Lastly, if it still is a mystery, start powering off devices one by one to find the source. Based on comments it seems you have multiple devices, but I assume it would not take that long?

You are not supposed to interact with Help!

Just kidding and not American. If saying ″thanks″ for things like those would yield similar reaction, I would be confused as well. Seems so intuitive to say it.

Have never thought about it before, but while I am right handed I always hold knife in my left hand and eat with right hand. Cutting prepared food with non-dominant hand never felt like a huge task since what you usually cut is easy to cut, it’s not like you are trying to cut a thin slice from huge piece of beef.

Yep, they are called news agencies.

While decentralised systems can be useful it will not be the future. Initially everything was decentralised and then we moved to centralised systems because they are easier to manage, easier to secure, cheaper. The main benefit for decentralisation is that you are not tied to single organization that dictates all the rules. If reddit would have better management, I would move back.

I am pretty sure this was being taught for maybe 1 day in 1st grade after you learn about numbers. For first grader learning analogue clock probably is also a fun activity.

Doubt it, because we have ″Microsoft Government″

Same setup here. Will check what’s the state with new Locus version, maybe it finally has something that will win me over. I do not mind it being subscription too much, makes sense for continuous development, depends how much it is though.

Could it be due to data quality?

I personally use specialized local app for public transportation that gets data directly from public transport provider (their official app is lacking), check if you have one in your region. Routes and timetables are always correct this way.

Storage is another issue. Will you store / seed random YT videos on your PC? You need to make sure you have enough copies so things are available and that there is adequate bandwidth so you do not wait multiple minutes for video to start.

Reliable video sharing sites with tons of content like YT / Vimeo makes sense only being centralized and they must have some kind of monetization like ads or subscriptions.

True, although I think there usually are either signs or site admins give heads up when site is soon to go under. Doubt Reddit or Twitter will be dead any time soon.
