Chit-Chat: In which we welcome back Shining Raichu from his extended vacation

[Echidna]

what is lebanon like, from someone who has been there in person and not parroted what they saw on cnn or god forbid, fox news

It's my favorite place on Earth <33
I'm gonna blog about it soon, having already blogged asking everyone what their image of Lebanon was like.

Regardless, it's a place where the weather is fair, people are amazing and lovely, life is easy and the civil structure makes Lebanon basically a social interaction heaven. Every moment is beautiful.

Wow, I really wanna go back right now ;;

That gif says 'haters to the left' but she's pointing to her right...wat

 

[Cordelia]

It says left because the person who made the .gif was an idiot.

Bing uses Google searches anyway, so why not just use Google?

 

[Algo Fonix]

I don't think I've used anything but google in years.

 

[Morkula]

Yeah, there's absolutely no point to using anything but Google. They're the standard for search engines and it has the most indexed sites - the most important thing for most webmasters is to get the site well-indexed in Google.

 

[Shiny Celebi]

Google is the only search engine I ever use. No point using anything else when I use Google Chrome as a browser.

 

[DavidtheDeadPhilosopher]

lol I remember when I still used Metacrawler and Exite

Silly 90's kid.

I used dogpile because I was just hitting puberty and my mom had a keylogger on our computer and no matter what you searched for on dogpile you got...X-rated images.

Best reason to use a search engine ever.

I mean when does anyway actually want the SFW images when they google search? Psh may as well just get rid of them all.

 

[Cordelia]

I remember a time before Google even existed as a search engine. I do remember dogpile, trololo.

High School Tech Support seemed to think pretty highly of it...along with everything ever being banned from being viewed. Which was frankly frustrating because 9 out of 10 times your actually trying to do legit research and you can't move forward because your school thinks that everything is unsafe.

 

[Hikamaru]

As far as search engines go, I only use Google.

Because Google always works for me, it never fails me and I have a Gmail account which explains why.

Google made required safesearch for all one-word searches. Try it, search for the dirtiest thing you can think of in one word and it'll be safe. Get to two words though and you get all the inappropriateness the internet can shower on you.

> Searches "breast"

Yeeeeahhhh

> Searches "breast f***ing"

YYYEEEEAAAAHHHHH!!!!

 

[Oryx]

I thought it was possible to disable safesearch entirely o__O

Not this particular kind. It's always on.

 

[Her]

UM.........TOUJ..........I FOUND A WORD WHICH CAN GET PAST THIS SAFESEARCH THING.......i won't divulge it though even though it's not a dirty word per se

Crazy, I never knew. Now my inappropriate googling shall be far more successful

Why do I deem it a good idea to make the thread I've been thinking about making all week just before I go to bed? Now I wish to stay up all night to monitor it but it's already 5:29am. I have work at 11am D:

And work for the next 3 days D: Gah!

I guess it's time to yet again say g'night DCC!

Shameless advertising Awesome unrelated thread:

[Oryx]

Weird, you'd think it would just be like "if it's one word, turn on safesearch", not "these words, turn on safesearch".

I am amused that if you search these things the safe results are mostly motivational posters though. Weird how that turns out.

 

[droomph]

I never got searching up the googles for inappropriate stuff.

Then again, I haven't gone past my cooties phase yet.
