When a female rider requests a trip, they will see an option called “women drivers.” If the wait is longer than expected, the rider can opt for another ride, according to Uber. Women drivers can switch their settings to “women rider preference.” This setting can be changed if the driver wants to receive trip requests from all riders: Uber is finally letting women riders in the US match with women drivers | TechCrunch https://techcrunch.com/2025/07/23/uber-is-finally-bringing-a-feature-to-the-u-s-that-lets-women-riders-match-with-women-drivers/

This looks interesting. Writer calls it "a scrappy, open-source search engine with a bold mission: to build a better web search, by the people, for the people." Sounds good, if the search results are decent - Mwmbl: The Open Source Web Search Engine, Because the web deserves better than just one Option. https://medevel.com/mwmbl/

"Wikipedia doesn't say 'It is a true fact that Cory Doctorow is 54 years old.' It says that a website called Writers Write published the assertion that my birthday is July 17, 1971. There's no ready way for you to verify my birthday, but anyone can verify that Writers Write published this and claimed it was true. Unless, of course, you are my mother, who does read this blog.
