The Velour Fog

To me this is like watching a rat and a cockroach fight. You hate em both, and you want neither to win, but you just hope that they will both hurt each other very badly.

And a competent brain…

DDG isn’t perfect by a long shot, but it’s still leagues better than google. I think SEO overall has taken a nosedive in recent years, especially with AI written content muddying the waters. Unfortunately I do not know of an alternative that’s better than either.

As a trucking dispatcher I have relied more on Bing Maps because they are more updated than Google maps sometimes. Google maps is almost impossible to search for a specific thing when you’re in a pinch, because there will be an ad for a competitor at the top of the list and you can easily be misled if you are in a rush. Happened to my bf a few weeks ago when he was searching for the closest UPS (near closing time) and inadvertently drove to a FedEx because it was the ad at the top of the search results. By the time he realized his mistake the UPS was closed. Fuck Google.

Yo where’s Krita under digital image tools? This list is missing some basic stuff :P

At first it was both, couldn’t upvote on the browser or Jerboa. Since this afternoon though I haven’t been getting a timeout error on Jerboa.

Edit: nevermind it’s happening again. Maybe it’s happening due to server load?

I think it’s having trouble keeping up with the rush of users. I’ll admit though it’s pretty frustrating that my upvotes don’t register. I get “timeout” after a few seconds.
