Since and aren't working as is down, instead of going to , perhaps check out https://searchengine.party/ instead and find an alternate engine.

To set a search engine as your default, visit the site and right click the URL bar, and select add. Then change your default in settings.

(Firefox will add it as an option in the default engines in settings. Chrome will open settings with it as an "inactive shortcut" which you can "make default" in the entry's menu.)

@GossiTheDog @gabboman MS should only see DDG's IP when it uses Bing's index to answer the search request. https://duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/privacy/web-tracking-protections/ We generally have the problem that there are only 4 search indexes: #Google, #Bing, #Yandex and #Baidu. And we just see what happens when the only other western search index that's not Google has an outage.

23.5.2024 - Der Tag an dem offensichtlich wurde, dass Bing praktisch die einzige verbliebene Alternative zu Google ist. Alle anderen "Suchmaschinen" sind Bing mit Schlapphut und Trenchcoat. 🕵️

Die Suchmaschine Bing, jetzt mit KI, ist momentan scheinbar überbelastet und deswegen down:
👉 https://allestörungen.ch/stoerung/bing/

Doch die Auswirkung ist mehr als nur bei ihnen, auch bei "alternativen" Suchmaschinen, die Bing im Hintergrund nutzen:

  • Ecosia
  • Duck Duck Go
  • Start Page
  • Dog Pile
  • Swiss Cows
  • ...

🔎 Was als zufärlässige Alternative genutzt werden kann, seht ihr in meiner Timeline.

🧵 …ach guck, nun ist es in der Presse, was ich vorhin oben erwähnte mit den Hinweis zu nutzbaren Alternativen (nicht Google!):

»Bing, DuckDuckGo und weitere Suchmaschine nicht erreichbar:
Einige Suchmaschinen, die nicht Google sind, funktionieren derzeit nicht. Betroffen sind Bing, DuckDuckGo und Ecosia.«

Ich hab da schon den ganzen Tag Probleme und Fehlermeldungen. Nur funktioniert normal. Erst dachte ich, das liegt am Arbeits-PC (der hat nur Google-Chrome und allgemein nur Google-Gedöns), aber auf dem Handy mit Fennec zickt Startpage auch.

AI voice assistant with the Peanut’s adult voice

@agiletortoise HAL. An AI voice needs to be HAL. I tried to get to hire Douglas Rain for the time needed to record the necessary material, but I couldn't convince them. I got the feeling they didn't want an optional Google Assistant voice that was known for killing astronauts on deep space missions. No imagination.

[UPDATE: Added a screenshot]

From Reddit, here’s a test for Google…

Go to Google search, type:

“which us presidents earned degrees from UW Madison”

No quotes. That’s a really really wrong answer. Anyone else see this?

This just unvetted source material? That’d be a red flag for their AI, yeah?

People, calm down!

I was triggered at first as well, but after giving it more thought, I agree with Redmond.

rightfully CANNOT blur or encrypt your passwords because doing so would require that Microsoft be a content moderator, returning your data to their Seattle mothership in order to do so.

That is a level of surveillance no one should be comfortable with.

Then again, you have given 20 years access to your email inbox, so...

Nothing to see here.

Mosey along.

Imagine what an anti-abortion red state or a fascist Trump administration (or some other future evil administration) would do with features like 's "recording everything you do on your PC" and the and Microsoft plans to listen in on your private phone calls.

I don't give a damn if these firms claim the data is stored on the devices. Devices can be confiscated, stolen, or courts can order pretty much anything done with that data.

These firms are selling us all down the river with this stuff.
