Or "Open a file..." from Abrowser's menu or using Ctrl+O.  Once the file  
displayed, copy the URL (using, e.g., Ctrl+L followed by Ctrl+C).

Thanks for replying, but when I tried the first command it spits out this

I installed python-pip. What do I do with it? I couldn't find cpython or  
python-profiler in the repositories in neither pip nor apt.


So you disagree with the NC-SA license for all educational use, because if  
you learn something you can't apply it to work that you sell?


I have been a little confused about what online resources there are for  
computer science. I'll try to find with something without the CC-BY-NC  
license.


I am kind of limited on ixquick (startpage) as it only displays one page of  
search. I don't like duckduckgo because they colluded with yahoo. I found a  
close relative's obit result when I searched for something irrelevant (my zip  
code I think) once so I thought ddg.gg was weird. When I search for someone I  
knew on ixquick it too brought up other local people so maybe it is not  
unusual what ddg.gg did.

i dont know if ixquick is better than duckduckgo in any way shape or form.  
searx.me or yacy are alternatives? i would be interested in this communitys

i disagree with nc for oer:  
https://freemedia.neocities.org/nc-and-nd-arent-that-great.html


im not sure boycotting mit opencourseware is the answer, but i wanted to say  
its bad for oer that they do that. what you do in that regard is naturally up  
to you.


cpython is included in trisquel as "python." there are several  
implementations of python, cpython is the most popular one.


"because if you learn something you can't apply it to work that you sell?"

no, nc is just so vague as a license it barely offers anything concrete. this  
defeats the purpose of cc licenses, which are to enable sharing and make it  
less complicated. this makes it completely wrong for oer, which is also  
supposed to simplify sharing and collaboration-- and often does, but it does  
a lot better when proper oer licenses (cc by or by-sa among others) are used.

you already have cpython installed. so what do you want to do next?

Really? I occasionally use Startpage and in my experience it returns
multiple pages of results. There are navigation buttons at the bottom of
the page.

DuckDuckGo's JavaScript is proprietary, and not all functionality works
with JavaScript disabled (no image searches, for example).

Some of Startpage's JavaScript is also proprietary, but it works fine
with JavaScript disabled, so it's better than DuckDuckGo in that
respect.

You might try Searx.

good to know.

a lot longer than would apply, but i actually found it difficult to believe  
that no client or program had a limit. one of the goals of the gnu project is  
to remove such arbitrary limits when possible.


i believe cpu architecture gives a limit too-- but greater than 4,096.

i tend to use duckduckgo with javascript disabled. i find it irritating and  
bloated with js on.


searx isnt bad so far. it would be cool if our community stopped using search  
engines altogether, and built our own alternatives. though i cant help  
thinking sooner or later we would be filtering out non-free software from  
search results. and ive got very mixed feelings about that.

it frequently takes me to that anyway. im quite certain duckduckgo is better  
than google, based on a sample of every single person ive ever talked to im  
never quite certain that i can say anything better about it than that.

That's what I was referring to. The HTML version is missing some of the
functionality of the JavaScript version. Searx and Startpage don't
require JavaScript for any of their features, as far as I've noticed.
