Well, there’s always some people with no self-respect, but they’re hardly the norm.

The dealbreaker for me is that a nordic home would never have pre-sliced cheese on the table but rather a big block of cheese and a cheese slicer.
It was more in response to your comments. I don’t think anyone has a problem with useful FOSS alternatives per se.
So, lick the boot instead of resisting you say?
Edit: actually, read zerakith’s comment instead.
So you simply already need to know what you’re asking it, gotcha. Seems easy enough.
I had a coworker in the early 00s that would repeatedly fail to search for something because she would type “www.goggles.com” into the address bar.
I’m starting to feel like a shill because I say this so often, but Kagi is the only one I’ve found that actually does the job anymore. To me a search engine that works is worth the small cost each month, but unfortunately I don’t see paying for search becoming mainstream anytime soon.
Her blown up remains you mean?
So, you like to make “guilt by association” arguments and guess at hidden motives instead of countering someone’s actual arguments. Did JK Rowling speak at a Heritage foundation event? Does her views generally align with the Heritage foundation, do you find?
Yes, obviously her evil plan was to pose as a feminist since her youth just to enable a devious undercover attack on trans people late in life. A good thing so many people online are seeing through this malicious disguise.
“Nazi” is short for National Socialism, yes, as in social ownership of the means of production in service of the national state. Don’t confuse the lazy modern usage of the term “socialism” for the actual historical definition.
And the whole point OP was making is Rowling and Trump are not working together. In fact, they take diametrically opposed stances on most, if not all, issues. And even if you see the end result as equal, they do not agree on this issue either. Their motivations are very different.
So you’re comfortable being vocally opinionated about topics you admittedly have next to no knowledge about. Seems like you yourself might have something in common with the average Trump voter.
As a left-leaning feminist, why would she like Trump? Whatever your opinions of her, even her enemies call her a TERF; RF stands for Radical Feminist. Hardly Trump’s primary demographic.
As far as I understand, the sole reason is “everyone else is using it”. Which also seems to be the justification for using Messenger, WhatsApp, X, Instagram et al despite knowing better. It’s hard to be outside of the walled garden if everybody else is inside.
when WE hallucinate, it’s because our internal predictive models are flying off the rails filling in the blanks based on assumptions rather than referencing concrete sensory information and generating results that conflict with reality.
Is it really? You make it sound like this is a proven fact.
I don’t live in the US and I don’t have this problem, it returns results from my area in my language no problem. You can also create a lens that locks results that originate in a specific region, haven’t tried that myself yet though since the default works so well. But perhaps it depends on where you live.
Give Kagi a try if you haven’t already. It’ll cost you a little but you can try it for free (100 searches I think) and see how you like it. The advantage of paying for search is of course that you’re no longer the product, so no more selling your data to ad companies every time you search something, plus it’s actually in the providers’ interest to make searching a better experience for you. Just the fact that I never have to see Quora in my search results ever again (I can just block their site) would be worth the price for me. It’s just a little thing that made a huge difference for me since I search the web so many times daily, and for a long time now the results has been mostly useless.
Well, perhaps that process would be more difficult and resource-intensive in this hypothetical scenario, so it would be much easier and less hassle to just keep the bodies alive?
