I switched to the French search engine Qwant. Much nicer.
But every result is a recipe for baguettes
At least those recipes don’t incorporate glue.
Gluten would like a word
Can’t find anything wrong with that.
But I already know how to make baguette
Problem solved then!? :-P
Well i guess i don’t really exist then.
I’m sorry you had to find out this way.
Bring back Infoseek
broken, but not broke. Sadly.
“nope”, but it’s a 100-word excerpt from Reddit that pops in just as you’re about to click a link and shifts everything down.
Denying reality for delusions is always an option.
Well, google’s American, and American’s like talking about “iddly” a lot. From context it would appear to be related to Italy. So perhaps try googling “does iddly exist” (tldr: it does).
I’m in Finland so I can only give a sad forlorn look toward Italy and say “First time?”
Anyway.
Now:
Me: “What’s the weather like today?”
Computer: “It’ll be 25°C or so.”
Me: “How do you know that?”
Computer: “I looked up your location and queried the national weather service.”
Soon:
Me: “What’s the weather like today?”
Computer: “It’ll be 25°C or so.”
Me: “How do you know that?”
Computer: “Fuck if I know. I’ve just learned that is a thing that people apparently say in situations like this.”
You: “How do you know that?”
Computer: “u/trollface69420 says ‘Its always 25°C or so lol’”
Do we need to? yes and it is harboring the end of privacy, independence, freedom and our right to live. Will we? Nope
Use https://wiby.me/ for everything but documentation
LOL I’ve avoided using anything from Google for a long time now just on general priciples.
I’ve switched to another email/calendar service, and I don’t use Google Search (kagi ftw) … but I can’t get rid of my Workspace account because I’m the admin for the rest of the family (who won’t leave gmail). Still, anything that further fragments Google’s information about me is a net plus.
Google was broken the moment it started to manipulate, in a biased manner, the search results.
I did just ask this question of Google assistant and it worked fine. I asked it about rings as well and it explained the composition of rings and pointed to Saturn as the primary example. I definitely think there has been a degradation in service, but the examples given here actually perform just fine.
Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune also have rings, so the search from 2 years ago was also inaccurate.
If I ask for “planet with rings” and my first result is Saturn, I consider the search functional.
If my first result is an ad for planet fitness, I do not.
Donut rings surround planet fitness
Must be the gym of choice for LEOs.
Well in fairness I’ve never been to Italy, so it’s possible it doesn’t exist.
I have been to it and i can confirm it doesnt exist
I’ve been in Italy a couple of times but hell if I know if I exist.
I have been so it does exist. However I’ve never been to Greenland, so Greenland may not exist.
Yeah, but I haven’t met you so…
Greenland is just a trick played on Canadians
Hey now, you’re not wrong, but you don’t have to call us out like that… Eh?
… Sorry.
