It's hard to fathom how #googling became a waste of time rather than the pinnacle of accessing the sum of humankind's collective knowledge. I end up typing in all the iterations I can think of to try to find specific information, and all I get is businesses and ads. The #enshittification of #google is a prime indicator of how bad the entire web ecosystem has become.
I'm optimistic someone may be able to make a #fediverse driven engine that will topple the status quo for contextual search.

Was researching some #OnlineCourses and saw a few of interest on #LinkedInLearning. Then saw the #prices. A little bit of #googling later, a #library #ecard aquired and free access to said courses achieved!

This story is just begging for a #pun #contest https://bird.makeup/users/cbs6/statuses/1627134061029257216 #starbucks #frappuccino #glass ... Also it's surprising how hard it is to spell frappuccino without #googling it. #spelling

@oldoldcojote Incorrect results +incorrect interpretations will be consequential in all sectors - education, politics, economy, energy, law/courts, news... the permutations are extensive. #googling it will be replaced by whatever #AI of choice moniker - if at all.
Some #googling revealed that to play a #4K #bluray on a computer, you need an Intel CPU from the 4th-10th gen Core series that supports SGX, or Software Guard Extension, which is essentially DRM nonsense that allows the 4K disc to be read. I have an AMD CPU, so no dice.
Some messing around with #QEMU didn't net me any results either, though having never used QEMU before, I put that down to my inexperience using it. But I did learn some things! And I do want to try using it more (it's so fast!).

A general heads-up for anyone #Googling or engaged in #internet #searches for #LANGUAGE : if you are looking for #slang meanings, start with @urbandictionary@twitter.com and https://greensdictofslang.com/. For #etymology always begin with https://www.etymonline.com/

I really want to build an open and decentralized network similar to #dn42 to practice a bit with #network #engineering. The beautiful thing is that there is literally a wealth of resources to be had simply for #googling. Anyone interested in collaborating?

@MerylORourke first, I #giggled at that, so thanks, lol. Second, unfortunately, aside from #googling it, I'm stumped. I'm locked out of my #Twitter, so I can't really see things from that angle ππ
I am thinking about doing a kind of #search #engine for search engines...meaning that you would search for a tool you need to perform a certain lets say investigation if your #pentesting or your just staring out, instead of doing the move of #googling how to...when I do an investigation I already have my tools setup for the job, but starting out from scratch can sometimes be daunting for newcomers. HereΒ΄s a list that can help π

So, what alternative word are we going to establish for "googling"? In German there's a sort of funny word that refers to using DuckDuckGo ("watscheln"), but 1. it doesn't translate and 2. the word shouldn't be specific to any particular search engine.
Due to lack of a better word I've taken to saying "searching the web" but it just doesn't roll off the tongue.
