NetSurf is a very barebones browser. It can fill a niche, but is not a daily driver where other options are available.

Firefox everywhere. It's not perfect, but is still the closest a browser gets.

Unless I need a PWA on desktop, then Edge (windows) or ungoogled chromium (linux).

There are, unfortunately, some features banks make mobile app exclusive (e.g. Zelle sometimes, check deposit).

I have a spare phone I keep in my drawer for when I really need a banking app.

I guess I don't really see why generative AI is a necessity for a search engine? It doesn't really help me find information any faster than a Wikipedia summary, and is less reliable.

They're being sued by the DOJ too.

Isn’t the formula for Roman concrete unknown?

Yes, though a lot of research has been done to figure out its most important properties. A secret of its durability was just figured out last year. https://news.mit.edu/2023/roman-concrete-durability-lime-casts-0106
