This typically works, but one time the AI said “Sorry, we’re unable to help you. Good bye” and hung up the phone.
Mind you, this was after 10 minutes of going in nonsensical loops of their options… I have never felt so baffled and enraged at the same time.
Oh god, yes this too. All the sponsored location spam drives me crazy. I love when I zoom in to a location and it doesn’t mark ANY of the shops besides STARBUCKStm
It has definitely been getting worse over years, but I specifically meant the last couple of weeks. I could still find what I needed between all the garbage… now I can’t even find it after adjusting the search multiple times.
If you can’t do better, then at least add some cute cat pictures in it. At least then I’ll feel a crumb of joy with every wasted effort!
Unfortunately, I’m usually searching software development issues and half the results are a decade old (and are no longer relevant for the language anymore). Assuming “after:xx” works too this night help, thank you!
You honestly though the most used search engine has been abandoned by everyone? Maybe share what you’re using instead of just being pretentious?
Aside from DDG, these are all new to me. I’ll take a look this week, thank you.
I’ve been swapping around search engines too, but they still seem bad. I always end up back at Google just because I know how to manipulate the search terms better.
I’ve used Kagi’s free trial. I’d turn to it when nothing else was helping and it did really well, but recently it hasn’t been helping either. It’s probably still fine for most things, but I’m often searching niche developer/programming things that are too burried under SEO/AI spam to find anymore.
Ooo I haven’t heard of this, thank you! The amount of garbage they’ve added is absurd.
Thank you for your service.
No thank you, that link will stay unvisited. The detailed description is plenty. 💀
I mean… that’s a pretty weird take. Most games have some sort of RNG - whether it be in the background or visibility listed probabilities. That doesn’t mean they’re promoting gambling.
The outrage over the 18+ rating was partially over other games with actual gambling (monetized loot boxes) are somehow PG / PG-13.
Meanwhile, this game with no in-game purchases and is only thematically about “Poker” is 18+ because it’s “promoting gambling”… If the game had an artwork swap they’d see it as a typical deck building rougelite and rate it the same as Slay the Spire.
