I use Bing. Partly because it's the only real option if you want to search from the windows start menu. But also because I do like how it presents info a bit better, and also like its knowledge graph a little better than the one Google has.

That being said, the engine does have a lot of issues with relevancy. And its image search is almost unusable. So I often find myself needing to go to. Other than that, I'm fine with changing it to my default across everything I own. I just wish MS would fix its most blatant issues instead of bullying old people into using it.

Bing images is simply terrible

It's like Google and starts off by showing you the most relevant answer you wanted through an info card. But then it goes on longer and longer under things that are less and less relevant.

Like, one of their examples is "What is a spaghetti western?", And it starts with the answer you were probably looking for

A subgenre of western films produced by Italian filmmakers

But then it just starts going on and on with increasingly less relevant things like "History and origins", "Best and most influential movies", and then "Music and Soundtracks" before then getting the actual search results.

It's literally designed to keep you from leaving the site. And all the sources seem to require quite a few clicks on mobile.

Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “wtf” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of people masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

My emails seemed to go through pretty well. It's been blocked by Discord and steam. But other than that, emails seem to go through pretty well.

Consumer disapproval of AI use in customer service is unlikely to keep firms from deploying the technology as the cost savings are just too great

So much for the market determining what goes

Many people now use ChatGPT like they might use Google: to ask important questions, sort through issues, and so on. Often, sensitive personal data could be shared in those conversations.

Okay but what about app compatibility?

 

Google rolling out Android, Chrome, & Search changes to comply with Europe’s DMA

 

I really can't stand their skewed priorities in contrast to the state of Firefox.

 
 

I'm trying to move a bit to Firefox in advance for the upcoming changes to Chromium's Manifest v3 changes next june. But one of the major problems I have is that bing looks awful on Firefox for Android in comparison to bing on Microsoft Edge for Android. It seems to be just the mobile version for smart phones, stretched out to a tablet. Is there any way that I can make it look a bit nicer?

 

I'm just sitting here frustrated because I'm wanting my family to move away from messaging me over SMS (they mainly use iOS), but they refuse to download any extra apps. But Google's RCS really doesn't look like a solution either since it mainly just seems to be a way of enforcing Android as an ecosystem, and they don't even make RCS available for 3rd party apps to use either.

 

I have a pixel phone and a pixel tablet running Android 13, and I would like them to both synchronize do not disturb (basically, when one turns on, do not disturb, it activates on the other, and vice versa). Are there any apps that are capable of doing this?

 

The bugdroid is now in 3D lol

 

I found this, I'm wanting to get a pixel tablet in about a week or so. Title just got me wondering a bit, though it's probably just a little bit sensationalized
