A couple years ago I began getting frustrated. Last year I started to first go to Bing, google as failsafe. Now I gave up on everything so might as well go with Ecosia. When I NEED something, I’ll go with bing/bing’s chatGPT.
Ah, my favorite way of trolling when I felt like it. Dispute something and eventually go “Ah, sorry didn’t know you were US specific with this” when I finally learn the revelation.
I was in two brief relationships with the same person some 10 years ago. I am single certainly by choice, I’m a sovereign person who loves their absolute independence, I get to do or not do whatever I want, whenever I want. Committing to be with someone is not my thing.
Sometimes it’s lonely when a certain kind of friend is not available. Befriending single people is always a gamble, if they enter a relationship they are likely to fade out of existence pretty quick.
That indeed is interesting, had to look it up. Episode Lisa goes Gaga, Lady Gaga guest starring the episode perhaps warranted the 38% of one point ratings. www.imdb.com/title/tt2403733/
I mean like I accept who I was born as but if given the choice I’d choose to be born a woman, yk? Idk but I kinda envy them a bit but i’m fine being an unsexy man...
Onko mämmiä tullut syötyä ynnä muita pääsiäisruokia? Mitä pääsiäispuuhia sopuleilla on? Ajattelin käydä vielä Alkossa katsomassa josko sieltä löytyisi jonkinlaista pääsiäiseen sopivaa olutta.
Yeah, bad news sites is the reason I didn’t follow any news for years, I got burnt out verifying just about every article. Most bended the story one way or another, headlines usually not quite what the article read…
I read “it’s dying” by people on Discord and Reddit all the time, but the numbers prove otherwise. It’s been going up this entire time and sitting over 3 billion MONTHLY ACTIVE USERS!...
i think we need Cracked-style articles back. desperately. or like, a guy doing a weird thing and writing a piece on it. sites like those are declining faster than the glaciers.
I’ll go with the algorithms. Google was greater than god, twitter and reddit were endless scrolling. YouTube is being pretty great still, except when shorts wakes up and chooses violence for the day.
I have a selection of social anxieties. Many of them revolve around me being let down so many times by people or groups I thought I belonged in. Any time I find some cool group, this feeling creeps up, letting me know “aw shit, here we go again”. I’m sure the failures are a self fulfilling prophecy at this point. I suppose the solution would be to ignore all the warning signs and get used to people being genuinely nice (and then walking into the minefield as I ignore the warning signs. And the purgatory restarts).
Using Google whilst Duck Duck Go is down. How long has Google been this bad?
So ddg is down, so I visit Google. It’s been some years....

Been using Perplexity AI quite a bit lately for random queries, like travel suggestions....
In your area/country, did you have a word or phrase to describe the static white noise on a television set not tuned to a channel? (upload.wikimedia.org)
Bonus points if there’s a known onomatopoeia to describe the sound.
If given a new life would you choose to be born the same sex that you were?

Hyvää pääsiäistä! Finnish

The slow death of Twitter is measured in disasters like the Baltimore bridge collapse (www.vox.com)
Twitter, now X, was once a useful site for breaking news. The Baltimore bridge collapse shows those days are long gone.
