Just realized I should probably try advertising that I'm open on here! xD DM/Message or whatever it's called here to nab one :D Payments are via paypal I work part time retail an have irl obligations so turn around can vary up to a few weeks/a month for bigger pieces. Headshots usually a week turn around. I close when I announce that I am or when this page is deleted.

This has been driving me insane.

I used to be *good* at search. It was a whole thing - I found people's "lost songs" or their unknown-source childhood stuffed toy or whatever from Google.

Now, you can't search for the exact brand/design name of something and get accurate answers. It drives me spare on Amazon - if I search for XYZ and you don't have any, or you only have 2, tell me that.

I wouldn't mind if it said "Here are 2 XYZ. Shoppers also searched for..." Instead it'll just throw a random, barely-linked pile of results and you have to wade through every single one to see if the thing you want exists.

THIS. For ages I used to say that I had "high Google-Fu". I could find *anything* because I knew how to use strings to enhance searches. The string commands haven't even worked for well over a year or more, far before they put in this infernal (and often wrong!) AI BS on top.

I used to be able to search for recipes and easily eliminate unwanted ingredients with a -. For example I'd look for low-carb desserts but without the zillions that use peanut butter simply by searching for something like:

low carb chocolate dessert recipe -peanut

And I'd get a slew of on-point suggestions. For some time now if you do -peanut Google ignores the - and assumes you want recipes stuffed with peanuts.

Where it's even worse now is now you get directed to sites full of bogus AI recipes that don't even make sense. But they have peanuts in them.

I used to be able to use reverse image searches to find out who made that awesome art so I could give credit in my share. They've removed that ability entirely and replaced it with Lens, which is AI BS just showing you more like what you looked for. (Rebecca Watson complained about this in her recent video about JD Vance jizz cup rumours and I apologise for that sentence but...yeah. Watson is great, go find her on Youtube and subscribe because she went into detail about how Google has become less and less useful for debunking.)

This isn't just about Google inserting shopping ads instead of what you wanted to learn about. That's bad. But the results now are just *broken*. The tools we used to have to make searches better have been removed. Google no longer wants us to find the answers we seek, but the answers they want us to have, and that's super creepy and dangerous.

And the alternatives are either using Google in the back end or have other significant barriers to use.

This sucks.

[bogleech]

Duckduckgo and all the other alternatives work this way too, now.

Verbatim search, guys!! Go to "Tools," and enable "Verbatim."

It's a pain in the ass, but it still works!

[dalniente]

1) yay, thank you

2) WHAT THE FUCK WHY DID THEY HIDE IT

[anthropwashere]

Okay so verbatim search is a life saver on the eyes alone??

I forgot search results used to look so normal

[deezmo]

Who's ready for the finale tonight? *sobbing*

[florencemachines]

Crimson Peak (2015) 🎬 Guillermo del Toro

+ IMDb trivia

[kradeelav]

i recently got two "how to draw ojisans" books partially by accident and did a comprehensive review of them both on my dreamwidth journal.

original books are JP-only but I provided machine-translated spreads. enjoy the read!

[deezmo]

Idk if i ever posted these here but here we go xD I loved both games around the same time an thought of fun crossovers, idk.

I bring you Dr. Revy Blackvolt, professional disaster man. He invented portable dialysis and synthesizes his own HRT, but nowadays he’s stuck on his obsession with stem cell organ regeneration and a healthy dose of corpse reanimation—both of which aren’t moving anywhere.

Also say hello to Tizzik’s cameo—I drew that specific pic of him but he belongs to @missmingles <3

[neo-kajatrash]

I might as well also share these alt versions of the second pic 💖

[deezmo]

I love this mad scientist. My guy.. you can't just strap someone u just met to a chair.. xD
