  11. The speed with which Google acquiesces to Trump's geographic madness is astonishing. They must have a 1984-like division internally that just rewrites the internet to match his proclamations.

    You know, they customize results for everyone. All they have to do is show Trump the map he wants but then leave the rest of us with, you know, the actual fucking map.

  16. Google/Alphabet is flat-out determined to make EVERYBODY pay them a monthly fee for storage. They've announced plans to count all Android backup data against your Google cloud storage. When that happens, what are the odds that millions of people will suddenly find themselves out of storage?

    And don't forget, once you're out of data space you will no longer be able to receive email. Probably no longer be able to text. Hell, you might not even be able to browse the web anymore, assuming Google decides that cookies are part of your storage!

    We funded the creation of the internet. Big Tech has stolen it. It's long past time we took it back.

  20. I think I saw an image of a graffiti showing #SamAltman once which had text along the lines of:

    "Just five more billions, bro, I'm begging you"

    Can anyone help me find it? #AI #GoogleSucks

  25. Google AI search results are so fecking accurate. Yeah...............

    Not.

    This is me trying to find out the BBFC age rating for Pixar's Hoppers before pre-watching it to see if it's okay for kiddo.

    Google AI: It's a PG.

    BBFC: It's a U.

    Bit of a big difference. But the AI results give an immediate, incorrect, answer that I'm sure a lot of people won't think twice about.

  30. @goatrodeo

    I completely agree (though I’ve never used ‘premium’.)

    There’s far too much information on each page. I preferred the previous, more succinct display. I could find the information I wanted quickly and easily.

    Now, it’s just a mess! Overkill.

  35. Anybody else plagued by Google's takeover of Fitbit? A disaster! A coach that is oblivious, screens that are a confusing mishmash of color and gadgetry, painfully non-intuitive navigation. Google, have you ever done technology before? What a joke, painful too given healthcare is the goal.
    NOT WORTH PAYING FOR PREMIUM GOOGLE HEALTH ANYMORE.
    Bottom line, I'm mad as hell and not going to pay this anymore. (Fat chance, this is AI being forced down my throat just like everybody else.)

  40. I've used the paid version of VideoDownloadHelper for a very long time to download videos or MP3s of videos to my PC. As a digital survivalist, I've seen too many videos disappear into the aether; I prefer to keep copies of anything I don't want to lose.

    But VideoDownloadHelper and YouTube are in a constant war. YouTube keeps trying to break VDH, and VDH keeps catching up. Right now, YouTube's ahead. They've somehow managed to break the ability of VDH to download ANYTHING from certain videos, although oddly enough not •all• videos. Unfortunately the ones you can't download are the ones I want.

    Luckily the various "YouTube to MP3" download sites still work. So fuck you, YouTube/Google/Alphabet!

  44. Out and about this morning and Google Wallet decided I couldn't use it to make payments.

    I always carry my wallet just in case but some cards in GW are digital-only. Is there some kind of single-purpose piece of hardware designed to be used as a digital wallet without Google in my business? I'd much prefer that.

  49. Since Google chat is now completely broken, I tried to email a friend to let them know.

    This was the result.

    Just to be clear, I CANNOT send them an email. As soon as I click "OK", the email •closes•.

    So apparently Google is out of the email and chat business. And of course also out of the search business. I guess they are just in the stealing business now.

  53. Google has successfully broken Google Chat, or Gmail Chat, or Gchat, or whatever the hell it is this week. They reached into my phone and replaced the working Gmail Chat with Google Workplace, which is completely broken.

    And it's not just my phone. They did the same thing to my son's phone. I've been expecting Google to do something like this for quite a while, so it's time for me to find a new chat or messaging app to use with friends and family.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?
