    I personally love how when you google something now, you have to scroll down a page past the wrong answer before you see your search results. And no way to disable it! Neat!

        Google has become unfathomably bad, it gives me the wrong answer consistently. OTOH Bing doesn’t even register the keywords of my search

          There are many way you can register keywords to better improve your search. Jared Billswkay of MLT university suggests that writing down the serial number of your search can help with any future warranty claims while others find that simply taking a photo of the tag is sufficient. With these tips in mind registering your keywords should be a breeze!

        In “News” google used to have a “blogs” link. I really like blogs so I used to use that. But google removed it years ago. Then google started helping me I put “blog” in double quotes. Google gave me fewer and fewer blogs results. To fill the void I still got non-blog top sites like Quora and Reddit.

        A few days ago I did a test and I learned that google will actively block my efforts to avoid crap if I add “blog” or “blogger” or “wordpress” to my search. I did three test searches - one for each word - and I only got one blog post result after all that effort. And the blog post smelled to high heaven of spam.

      If you’re on firefox, get the plugin “Google search engine with udm=14 preset” and set your search engine to that new version of google. It’ll automatically switch to “web” results, which removes all the AI garbage.

      Alternatively, it seems like you can append “-ai” to any search and it won’t show it. No idea if its still running the AI in the background though.
