Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    Sad to see him use Google in 2023 but funny.

    I ran the query on Kagi also and it does show the same thing at the top, but also 33 other results from lots of different sites discussing it.

    https://kagi.com/search?q=cold+dark+place+filled+with+sadness+and+despair&r=se&sh=xwfGnG_ze1m3u3BrKZEWvw

    I shared a link now to these exact results so people without accounts can view.

    Kagi is akin to using Google in incognito mode though... They use Google's index for the most part and that's why you get the exact same results.

    If you want to not use Google, your choices are effectively Bing (and others which use its indices such as DuckDuckGo, Ecosia etc.), Baidu, Yahoo, Yandex or Qwant.

    How about Brave Search? It has its own index, and the results are definitely better than Bing and Bing-based search engines. I still find Google's results to be better, but it's the best privacy-friendly search engine right now.

    Hell,for more programming/technical topics I find brave search to even be better than google!
