I love coelacanths so much. I have a soft spot for fish in general, and especially ones like this.

Runs Minnesotanly toward you wielding a bottle of ketchup

It may be bad, but it’s not the wurst pun I’ve made

If you want to polish your people skills, look no frankfurther than Chicago

True, but if they got their buns to Chicago, they might meat some good people there

I guess you could say it’s a place that people relish

For you non-Americans, Chicago is like if a hot dog became a city

Religious evangelicals hating Catholicism is a tale as old as the Reformation itself

Yeah, I agree. I have a feeling this has less to do with any actual Buddhas and more to do with the person being racist

That’s on you for not entering the proper search terms. User error.

Edit: Also, good. That’s the way it should be! Which search engine did you use to get that result? I’ve been looking for something like that.

I’d wager that a good percentage of people who support displays like this are also violently antisemitic, and they only support Israel specifically because it’s a genocidal apartheid state.

When I go to block zionist blogs on tumblr, they’re almost always reblogging posts by Terfs and white nationalists.

Like congratulations I guess, Israel’s got the support of Nazis.

You know what’s hilarious about this basically non-functional setting? If I toggle the switch off, it provides results based on my IP address’s location, but if I toggle it to “UK” it will also provide some results for the UK city that my town is named after, without me ever providing the name of my town lol

DDG is a for-profit brand that’s a lot more nefarious than people think. They’ve even succumbed to AI.

Even the lite and html versions of DDG will provide locationally biased search results. There’s no way around this. Best you can do is use a VPN, but then you’ve still got the problem of reading locationally biased results, just for a different location. It sucks.

Oh believe me, I know. DDG was the first one I tried, and I tested it with every configuration possible. Like many other search engines such as startpage and kagi, you sure can do this in the settings, but it will do absolutely nothing to stop it from using your IP address to net locationally biased results specific to your current location. You may assume it would function like this, but it doesn’t.

I even tried their html and lite versions, but although it was less cluttered and much more pleasant to use, it still provided results that were very clearly based on my IP address.

I’m not even sure what those settings do because they appear to have no function. Maybe they change language and currency on some sites for convenience, but again, that’s not what I’m talking about in my comment! I’m saying a search engine should not use any locational data whatsoever to adjust results. And if you reply “well, good luck finding one because it doesn’t exist,” then congratulations, you understand my comment! They don’t exist because we’ve all sacrificed our societal wellbeing for the sake of the smallest convenience.

Even if changing it to another country/region worked (it doesn’t), we’d still have the problem of netting biased results based on what country I switch it to. That would be akin to searching while using my VPN, which once again, does not solve the problem of search engines using IP address to provide locationally biased results.

On Android, there’s also NewPipe or Tubular
