I made the switch about two months ago. IMO, Google still beats Duck Duck Go in terms of relevant results and I am curious whether Duck Duck Go can do anything about it as they are not gathering as much data as Google. I try to find my answer on Duck Duck Go first and if I cannot see anything useful within 30 seconds I end up adding !g at the end of the query which redirects to Google with the original search terms.

There's also https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ascii+table which I use so frequently that I should really just print it out and tape it to the wall.

$ man ascii

$ man ascii | cat | lp -

We have a nominee for the useless use of cat award.

Realized after I posted. Too late to fix it. The only reason I made the mistake in the first place is that I wasn't sure if the pager would mess up text output.

(What? You expect me to print three or so pages to test an assumption about how *nix utilities work?)

seriously, just do it. Having it on your wall is faster than any search can get it to you.
