      he has said a lot of things to get his point across. when you are dealing with people that speak multiple languages via mailing list, sometimes it takes a little hyperbole.

      my complaint about him is how little he cares about security. great lead dev in so many ways except that aspect

        If it’s just a compound noun it’s no fun, because it’s just a literal translation of those same words except there’s no spaces between the individual words in German

    Sad to see him use Google in 2023 but funny.

    I ran the query on Kagi also and it does show the same thing at the top, but also 33 other results from lots of different sites discussing it.

    https://kagi.com/search?q=cold+dark+place+filled+with+sadness+and+despair&r=se&sh=xwfGnG_ze1m3u3BrKZEWvw

    I shared a link now to these exact results so people without accounts can view.

      Kagi is akin to using Google in incognito mode though… They use Google’s index for the most part and that’s why you get the exact same results.

      If you want to not use Google, your choices are effectively Bing (and others which use its indices such as DuckDuckGo, Ecosia etc.), Baidu, Yahoo, Yandex or Qwant.

        How about Brave Search? It has its own index, and the results are definitely better than Bing and Bing-based search engines. I still find Google’s results to be better, but it’s the best privacy-friendly search engine right now.

    In Brazil exists a son of a removed with a company named “Nude” and they are so godlike with their SEO that they are the first result(in Brazil only), all others results are porn sites and the motherfucker is not even a sponsored result. Linus has some competition for the title “Master of SEO”.

        Just for clarity my reply was not deleted by admins, I deleted a duplicate because of a bug and both replies got deleted.

        Anyway, probably admins removed the cursing.

            Is it possible to turn it off? I feel more censorship here in lemmy than reddit. Lemmy.world had some power tripping mods. Joined lemm.ee. I don’t like curse words to be removed. If someone is personally attacking someone then can understand blocking him/her.

            Some puritan servers automatically censor certain swear words. If a user of one of those instances swear, the word is replaced with removed, if a user of another instance swears, only the puritan server users will see the word as censored, the rest will see the real word. The word for a female dog is one of those censored words for certain servers.
