When did Google get so f-ing weird? Dan Lyke / comment 0
Sancho Panza's Thoughts — When did Google get so f-ing weird?
I've largely gone to Startpage as my search engine, but I've seen similar things, where search terms are taken as laments to be commiserated with rather than, you know, search.
I kinda feel like we're going through that period where Google retargeted itself from searching on the phrase to attempting to parse the phrase as a question, only... more surreal.
web like it's 1996 Dan Lyke / comment 1
The observation is one I can get behind: Charlie Stross @cstross@wandering.shop
I long for a world wide web that goes back to basics: Markdown for text, JPEG or PNG for images, *no* Javascript or other client-side execution, designed to be writable by a human being with a simple text editor and no fucking interactive/dynamic bullshit. Make it as advertising hostile as possible. And above all keep it *small* (as in: a large, sprawling web site should fit on 16Mb USB stick).
In other words, web like it's 1996 again.
The replies indicate that most people cannot conceive of such a world.

Went down to Golden Gate Park today for Forever Grateful, which turned out to be a surprisingly impactful multimedia experience.
