I feel you, and agree with most of it.... buuutttt I think it's even more frustrating to know you had a good reference that was closed and then spent a stupid amount of time to find again.

Everyone has their own workflow, whatever works.

I have, mostly. The search engine wasn't the point; they're all pretty terrible these days with the absurd AI spam everywhere.

It's a combination of things... I'm a software developer, so I'll often end up with 20+ tabs open while resolving a problem.

  • I don't want to bookmark them because I don't need them when I finish the task.
  • I can't close the tabs until I'm sure everything's working because Google sucks these days and who knows how hard it'll be to find the source again.
  • Relying on browser history is like finding a needle in a haystack. Tasks can take multiple days and 100 different entries in history.
  • I might have "finished" a task that still needs tested and I know it's a bit shaky; I'll want to move onto a new task but keep the most useful references until I no longer need them.
  • I only bookmark pages that I'll need long-term or multiple times. It's already hard enough to keep those organized...

My tab hoarding has only gotten this bad because search engines are terrible now and the amount of AI garbage to sort through makes finding anything useful a pain in the ass the first time; let alone trying to find it a second time.

Correction: companies are implementing it into their search engines. Users are just providing feedback.

Ironically, Google's original non-LLM summary was pretty great. That's gone now.

Honestly, thank you for posting the details and results. Regardless of anyone's opinions, it's a fascinating thought experiment.

 

I'm trying to rationlize a false memory(?) Apparently a group of cats is actually a Clowder. Nowhere else on the internet calls it a Whisper?

I swear I was taught this the same day I learned 'a school of fish' and 'a murder of crows.' I remembered it all these years because I'd always think 'whispuuurrrr' in my head.

Help me out of my denial. 😭

I think this overlooks how most MAGAs are rural.. and when you live rural you already rely on your neighbors. Most of which are also white and the exceptions are ""one of the good ones."" It's why they can demonize entire demographics and still feeling like a good person since they're good neighbors.

They're not going to stop blaming 'the others' for hardships.. They're just going increase complaints about 'the government' and how much they pay in taxes.

I grew up in Amish country/farmland and it's painful to see how stagnant my family has been over the years.

Same, that's why I really wish they spent more time revealing and unwinding the mystery of the gorge. It just felt like an afterthought.

Agreed. Honestly, the whole third act felt a bit rushed to me. They spent so much time setting up the characters relationships - not complaining - but then speed ran any of the mystery.

Has Jellyfin improved its subtitle fetching?It's been awhile since using Jellyfin. I stayed with Plex because downloading subtitles on the fly wasn't available in Jellyfin, and no extensions for it either.

I think we need to clarify things a bit here. "Clean hair" and "Shampoo'd hair" aren't the same things.

Everyone should clean their hair. Most people use shampoo for that, but it's not good for all hair types. Curly hair usually suffers with shampoo use.

I don't think "pink" and "hot pink" should count individually here.

Or if they do, you missed the opportunity to just list all colors + "hot" infront of them lol.

Still a passing grade regardless, so you get a hot gold star 🌟

JS has bid 26 times now without missing a beat. It's up to $2,345. That's insane.. and with 8 days left! Like bruhh what?? I refuse to believe they genuinely want to purchase it vs just driving up the price.

 
 

I know it's been getting worse over time, but I could still find what I needed after some digging.

Recently it's been like 10 minutes of adjusting search terms, still getting completely useless or irrelevant results, and me just giving up afterwards. Other search engines seem just as bad.
