I keep reading this, but Google still limits itself to your search terms 100% if you put them in quotation marks separately.
And you can exclude specific terms completely with a minus and quotation marks.
If you want results containing just one of your terms, put OR between them.
I haven’t found another (free) search engine that respects these limits completely.
If your results still suck using this trick, it’s because the internet as a whole sucks a lot more now. Forums are dead, blog posts are written by AI and heavily optimized to push them up in the search results, and all interesting info written by humans is in chat apps now.
Do you have an example? Cause that hasn’t been my experience.
And I’m not even trying to shill for Google, it’s usually my third choice when I haven’t found anything on Duck and Qwant.
The data is based on Openstreetmap, and your issues are caused by lack of data.
There’s a real fun way of contributing to Openstreetmap with the Street Complete app.
You take a walk through your neighborhood and solve questions.
If you like this sort of stuff, you can dive deep into the rabbit hole of Openstreetmap. Basically every time I can’t find something I’m looking for, I make a note of it and add it to the map later. It doesn’t require any coding knowledge.
(Now that I think about it, maybe the reason why the US has so much worse Openstreetmap data than Europe is because taking a walk and noting down info about your neighbors’ houses will either get you run over or shot)
I like it. OSMand has much more features but on the basic phones I use it’s usually lagging.
Organic Maps is more responsive and that alone is enough reason for me to prefer it.
You can’t put the responsibility on the actor who never chose to own a gun, so they have no reason to educate themselves about gun safety.
All responsibility lies with their employer (I guess that’s the producer and/or director), who made them handle a gun as part of their job and should have given them the required training, as well as the prop guy whose job it was to check the gun.

My wife and I have a Christmas tradition (in Germany).
We go swimming in a local river or lake at some point between Christmas eve and new year.
The last 4 years it was always warmer than 10°C during that time. 3 years ago, it was 18°C, which was completely bizarre. We were lying in the sun to dry after our bath in late December.
What is the average temperature of earth?
