When has art ever been objective?

They grew up getting their heads shoved into toilets, and are now eager to shove somebody else's head into the toilet. I'm in my mid-30s, and I absolutely remember the teachers turning a blind eye to a bunch of kids ganging up on me with sticks in middle school, only to get detention for hitting them back with the book of arthurian legends I was trying to read.

We basically got taught that bullying is a good thing the strong do to the weak, and it fucked up multiple generations.

This is how you get republicans wanting to use RATM on the campaign trail

You know, it was super creepy until I got to the video without a soundtrack and found out they sound like farts.

I haven't done it in decades, so I don't know if it's changed, but there used to be an option called flying standby. You'd buy a ticket without a seat assigned, and you'd just go to the gate and wait to see if a flight went to your destination with an empty seat you could claim. It was cheaper, but no guarantee of getting a flight.

An "introduction" to lemmy that's buried behind clicking through vague smalltext, and not any of the brightly colored buttons enticing you to pick a server.

This is bad UX.

Yeah, for some reason I was thinking you were trying to say that bolting on widgets made it no longer a search engine.

I see, you're splitting the UI from the backend as two different things, and Im seeing them as parts to a whole.

then send them to the user to be displayed

This is where my understanding breaks. Why would displaying it as a summary mean the backend process is no longer a search engine?

Maybe I just don't know what "generating results" means. You query a search engine, and it generates results as a page of links. I don't understand how generating a page of links is fundamentally different from generating a summation of the results?
