Great movie. Some jokes surely have aged badly, but it’s a classic.
I was surprised that the sequel wasn’t that bad either. Faithful to the style and silliness.
lol, I just watched this movie this week
Does it hold up in 2025?
It’s a classic comedy movie from the '80s. To a modern audience some jokes will appear too raunchy or racist, but I think it’s still worth a watch.
Personally I started to dislike it’s comedy, even though it was one of my favorite movies back in the 90s. I tried to watch it’s sequel and I couldn’t go beyond the first 10 minutes. It hasn’t aged well to me.
Kind of fucked up but tbf Google does similarly shady stuff.
Please just use duckduckgo (or SearX).
I host my own SearXNG instance, which miiiight be a bit of a bad idea because the anonymity of the crowd disappears but hosting your own services is way too cool to ignore. It’s at search.gregtech.eu in case anyone wants to use it.
Pretty impressed, very accurate information
Accurate indeed. Pee is stored in the balls, cum is stored in the prostate
You know your content is certainly used to train LLMs ?
Did they stutter? Everything they said is 100% accurate.
It pulls from Wikidata
This is nothing like GregTech! Where’s the tedious microcrafting to enjoy before every search?
Hahha GregSearX I love it!
I’ve used searX in the past and found it was decent but personally I am going to stick with duckduckgo because it just works better for my needs (especially since I’m on mobile).
What I don’t like about SearXNG (aside of no favicons/icons I think) is that it doesn’t show the content of what I am looking for in the browser desktop tabs, if I search for “Linux” in the tab it is only shown “SearXNG” instead of what I am searching for… That definitely kills my browsing habits… I hope I am being clear (can’t post a screenshot right now), also unsure if it was the same with mobile browsers.
You can control that with a setting. In Settings - Privacy, turn on “Query in the page’s title.”
My instance has a magnifying glass as the favicon.
Thank you, totally missed this then 😄
I can set up a favicon resolver on my instance. I’ll do it today.
Thank you, I didn’t even know it was possible.
I am gonna try it later, happy spying /j
There we go, I have the favicons set up. Sorry for the intermittent downtime, I was doing some configuration.
It supports favicons now, it has to be enabled by the instance.
Thanks for the heads up, always a good thing being proved wrong when asking for features :p

SearX is dead; you should use SearXNG now.
DDG is just Bing under the hood
And Searx is the same. And startpage is just google.
But the point is they don’t track.
I would use anything else before DDG, the primary function of it which is searching, generally feels sucky
Why? DDG is fine for search, and the bangs make up for any issues.
because it’s not google we’re gonna make it look exactly like google
lol the gall
User: “Can we get Google?”
Microsoft: “But we already have Google at home!”
The Google at home: [reskinned Bing page]
This is a genius move to keep you from Google search
Seems more like a genius move to get slapped with another antitrust-like lawsuit.
Corps don’t give a fuck about an antitrust law suit. In the US, the party that pays the most to jerk off CEOs just got put in charge. Even if it was the other party, who only pays slightly less, the most extreme fines are a slap on the wrist. Hell, come Jam 20th it’ll probably a tax write off.
Until the EU levies fines that would kneecap these companies out of business, there is no incentive to change the behavior.
I mean the original lawsuit was for aggressively bundling Internet Explorer and kneecapping other browsers. Which sure sounds a lot like a minor variation on what they’ve been doing with Edge and Bing for a while now, without consequences. Antitrust enforcement is not something I have a lot of confidence in for the foreseeable future.
And just when I thought their endless begging couldn’t get any more pathetic.
Soon enough they’ll tell you a puppy dies every time you launch a non-edge browserThis is a search engine showing open evidence of skewing results away from true for their own motivations. Slightly comic when it is Microsoft doing it to Google but if they do this so blatantly how else are they more subtly redirecting our searches towards biased or even false results that benefit them and misinform the user.
The single thing Google did right when they first came out was a clean UI with a search bar on an uncluttered page.
At the time the competitors had search pages cluttered with ads and news. It was so bad you couldn’t think.
If Microsoft makes their search nice to look at them it’s going to get many more users
I have no idea what you’re talking about.
Besides Privacy DDG is wayy better then Google And Bing + It has a better search quality.
I prefer DDG to either as well, but in terms of search quality … Don’t they use Bing search results?
Yes they use Bing but i think they did some adjustments to improve the search quality (Correct me if am wrong)
I disagree with the quality part.
I don’t think there’s a difference in search quality, but I do really like the bangs and the client-side settings (can completely disable the AI noise, enable dark mode, etc all w/o needing an account).
Agree
DDG may be better for privacy, but I’ve found their search results to be garbage.
Make sure you have regional results enabled if you’re not from the US, results get way better (just make sure the little toggle right below the search bar is on)
It shows less results but i find it to be better personally.
I think Kagi is way better, but unluckily it’s a paid product. Most of the people will never pay for a search engine.
Yeah :(
Microsoft is a pathetic little husk of a company, what a corny and predatory practice that not even google cares to do if you search other search engines.
Don’t care.
They can fuck with google for all I care.Google is shady af

If you’re my age, sure. But it’s crap.
Wait, is Microsoft using Google’s copyrighted work on their page without authorization? This is going to get pulled so fast they’re gonna get whiplash.
Why would they? They can imitate Google’s style w/o violating their copyright, it would actually be easier to reinvent the wheel than to try to somehow copy what Google has. It’s nothing special, just a bit of padding and margin settings for result cards and whatnot.
Yeah this “Microsoft” group seems to be pretty established and it looks like they have decent resources.
And probably a lawyer or two to look things over.
