It's impressive how duckduckgo manages to be so much better than bing despite being a frontend for bing

it's Microsoft. You don't need to edgelord censor yourself.

Yeah, you're totally allowed to cuss on the internet.

Need to enshittify it enough to make the AI features feel like an improvement.

Here's the UBlock filters for a better experience, on this day, 12-9-2024. Sadly, the results are still bing results, and the MS data vacuum is still in effect. (there's a chance this get's filtered cause of all the urls, so if there's nothing below, oh well, woulda been nice, huh.

edit, image now

Oh my god that's amazing. Instructions on how to do what you're literally doing, dead internet theory is so correct. Instructions for robots by robots

[–] [email protected] 92 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (14 children)

Unpopular opinion: dead internet is not only real, but GOOD. Once robots get good enough to autonomously sign up for websites and make convincing posts, this will force us humans to go actually outside, make friends, form deep social relationship, and build lasting, resilient communities. Meanwhile on the internet, websites that are willing to allow AI content for money will eventually die out due to lack of actual users. The only remaining websites will be run by individuals and organizations with non-profit motives, and a strict human-only policy with verification based on word-of-mouth / invite system.

Boooo, this is just diet accelerationism! Let me have genuine online connections in addition to my IRL ones.

Okay, totally off topic...what is it with this annoying trend of censoring a company/name with an asterisk when it's a subject of ire? It just bugs me - and not in a way that focuses my anger to Microsoft.

With stuff like Tesla and Twitter, it can keep away the weird nerds who search those terms in hopes of white-knight-sealioning a conversation into oblivion. I think it just became part of the lexicon.

The inverse of this is that people who filter out specific words in their feeds will be tricked into seeing it. You get to piss off 2 groups of people by doing it!

And to add insult to injury...

People are going to see this, so here's the answer.

Logitech's web UI is crap. See that tiny, unlabled triangle on the list on the left?

Click it and pick your OS version.

Then you get the download.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

...huh. TIL.

The last time I had to download the unifying software it was more obvious than that.

Is softonic actually malware or an unreliable repository that may contain malware? I’ve never actually clicked in lol

[–] [email protected] 67 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I unknowingly downloaded some software from there when I was a kid, and, from what I remember, it came bundled with some sort of update manager or something. Even if it's not outright malware, I would wager most people who are looking to download logitech's utility don't want some irrelevant third-party garbage on their system. So AT BEST it's crapware / bloatware

Softonic has to have made a deal with the SEO devil.

Non idea how their disgusting malware is always on top.
