Look forward to the day they require eye tracking & answering questions about the ads they showed

Good example of why summaries and screenshots are important

Think of the poopers

Double TIL, 1921 origin in the home of the sideshow, how ironic. Oakland California.

How can you skip that?!

Oh it has a second screen… have to answer ~100 questions about your viewing habits to get it… so they must only ship to likely profitable demographics. Yeah pretty much hate it :D

Is this some kind of Minecraft I’m too RuneScape to understand?

I can see a small silver lining here.

  • Queer folx (at least on the Fediverse) are too smart to fall for it.
  • Conservatives are dumb enough to get upset.

Public, profit-motivated veneers of support are at least not public displays of homophobia.

A society where 100% of its e.g. banking sector pretends to care about pride month should normalize gay lifestyles more than a society where that sector is openly hostile to them. If someone raises a kid who sees pride flags on every building, even if their parents suck those shallow displays may subconsciously still have a positive effect at the end of the day.

I’d rather have genuine support but the fake crap is at least better than hate?

There’s gotta be a buncha tools that Clippy into the terminal to say “did you mean ____?” right? Including some new ones where they trained/fine-tuned a language model on man pages?

Interesting it’s not the most popular thing to use a GUI and use shortcuts for everything you want to do while still having the option to click through a menu or wizard for whatever you haven’t memorized. I suppose the power and speed of the command line are difficult to match if you introduce anything else, and if you spend time using a user interface that’s time you can’t spend honing your command line skills.

The fuk? Please help me complete this insane captcha ( lemmy.world )

Fridge fridge hamburger truck truck... ??? What's the blue thing? I thought hamburger would be the answer, but it isn't? I just get the same captcha with the hamburger in a different place. WTAF is happening? And what's the blue thing? I refresh and it's the same icon in a different place. I AM HUMAN!

w/no prompt, GPT-4o:

To complete this CAPTCHA challenge, click on the hamburger in the image. Among the objects shown, the hamburger has the shortest lifespan.

Increased costs & time burden I suppose. I paid for that image analysis. A few cents perhaps, but that’s at least something at scale.

SearXNG: poor man’s Kagi (one seemingly reputable instance)

On iOS, I set my default search to DuckDuckGo, and enabled Hyperweb on the DDG domain to redirect to SearXNG. I use a Google Images bookmark saved as a favorite when I need images (SearXNG results inferior even when using Google as the sole engine).

I anecdotally suspect Kagi of astroturfing btw, but after some free trials it seems to be about the best Google alternative - gotta be [earning like] a [US-based] knowledge worker though, or really care about search.

I’m kidddddding I’m kidding!

You’ve once again reminded me to properly catalog my comparison searches. Only one I could find in my screenshots:

https://sh.itjust.works/pictrs/image/0a37e9e8-ff40-4f0b-8011-1efe50d0ee69.jpeg

I start with !ddgi but more than half the time hit it with a !gi bang to go over to the Alphabet Adware Image search. I swear I’m gonna catalog this stuff and then maybe it’ll be apparent:

  • I do weird searches
  • Google is search bubbling me even when I’m private browsing
  • I'm misperceiving the frequency at which DDG image searches actually fail me

Or maybe my use cases are fairly normal and Goog really is superior, TBD!

Maybe Microsoft signed on a line promising security. Hopefully another line isn’t a forced arbitration clause.

Super sad

Wish I could undo my days of recommending Chrome to IE users. Hey, it had Adblock [Plus] ‘n’ tabs ‘n’ stuff…
