Cheese

Yeah you wouldn’t be insulting the police over here, either. If for no other reason that should something happen that requires police presence just around the next corner you’re going, you do not want the police to automatically be siding with the other party.

Are there full-size ortho keyboards?

Ah yeah, lots of pseudo-medicine falls into it.

Of course water has memory.

Of couse physically abusing your kid is healthy for it.

Of course this quartz will help you.

And then you actually strike gold with this shit and years later a well-known actress is selling candles that smell like her minge. Unbelievable.

Got any more interesting facts about tits, cocks, boobies, peckers or shags?

Yes

I mean the corpses in their bright jackets are useful, they tell you about the dangerous spots! 💡

“Quiet quitting” 😂

Because yeah, you only do the job they pay you for, how dare you!

It’s just a legal safety net that they cannot know whether at the moment the route is cycling-safe. So while you can follow their route, real-world situations might differ and hence you need to think for yourself.

Over here they show the same warning for pedestrian and car routes. Which is sad, because it tells me that enough people blindly drive into shit based off of a routing app that they need to tell people to please not turn their 2 braincells off, as much as a difference that is going to make…

Yeah but it’s also far from new technology. Germany is mostly electrified rail, and having BE sets to bridge areas is not uncommon (in southern Germany you also get diesel electric combo units).

Yeah like, they could put the opening hours on the door or something. Or lock the doors to indicate that it’s closed! Or shake their heads! Oh wait!

Why do you have a man-portable Tesla Coil as a plunger?

Damn that’s some impressive stuff! :o

Yeah just casually dropping in there that his dad sets up a go-cart track for the family get-together in the garden, sure.

It’s important to have the right-size flange for each hole, yes.

Sadly not. I wish. Or maybe it’s per-country? Here in Germany it’s all Apple. Apple Maps, Apple Weather, etc. And they’re all equally terrible and seem to be extremely US-centric in their results.

Yeah I was more comparing how they push things on you, too. They’re of course much nicer, in particular because you can just turn things off, which is how it ought to work. I don’t mind things being default-on, most users would otherwise never realize stuff even exists. But it really needs to be able to be disabled, like how DDG allows it. (But sadly not for their godawful Apple Maps)

Also, Apple Maps is totally fine, it’s not overloaded with ads like Google Maps is and it basically always finds the place I search for.

Okay this is the one thing I’d readily disagree on.

Beyond its absolutely inability to find non-US results (there’s a steak house next to me, I can enter that exact name including capitalization + the name of the city I live in, and it’ll instead find a different-named steak house in a US city names like my non-US one instead), not being able to click places on the map to select them is just laughable.

Nevermind how it’s navigation is ridiculous, at least over here. It just travels shortest path, no respect for traffic lights or anything.

It’s a very good showcase of how superior Google Maps actually is, as a maps application. And how much openstreetmap has left everything else in the dust, too.

Apparently it’s based on the fact that the colour reminded people of the bacon used in mouse traps. Although it’s a bit unclear, it could also play into things that the first company to sell marshmallows en masse in Germany used mice-shaped ones.

DDG

“Hey wanna use our AI chat?!”
“Hey, like these autogenerated result-blobs instead of your actual results?”
“Hey, we thought you hate finding the place you were looking for, so we use Apple Maps to ensure you’re getting fucking nowhere, ever!”

I wish DDG was usable. All it is, is a good showcase that Google isn’t as bad as they could be.
