In case anybody was wondering, they have indeed changed it to prioritize "natural language" so that it basically ignores things like " for inch, btw. But I should not need to know that! And we should not all have to search for shit using the vocab of 3rd graders who haven't learned notation yet ffs

I'm convinced companies took all their best API/Algo devs and put them on AI/ML and then let go all of the DB/query people, because finding anything specific on the Internet seems to get worse every day. Why the fuck am I, a consumer, researching what keywords Amazon's latest search engine looks for

Unless something is getting drilled down, table mounted isn't a thing either. Get over it and learn to accept returning a zero data result set, and response codes other than 200s. Or failures masquerading as 200s bc "technically the system responded" and that makes the failed cert error ok ๐๐ซ

Floor mounted is not a real goddamn thing. This type of thing drives my systems brain batshit crazy. If it's on the floor, it's not mounted ffs. I do not care if the API/algorithm won't return a result without an exact match, so you needed something to identify non-wall mounted.

The nice thing about wood is that if some dude leaves big pieces sitting around outside, which are too heavy for you to move, eventually they will simply rot and then be nicely portable yay #HomeImprovement

Getting a new fridge is such a pain. Actually, they're pain in general lol. I've got one in my garage my ex left, I was thinking about painting but now I realize it's got mold/mildew on the side so idk

Oh God. That's a good idea, the garage is in between fences, and just white with a driveway so blue would have worked (although I don't love the shade the shutters came out as). Introducing blue now will extend my angst another month though lolol

Anybody want to help me pick paint colors for my big garage door? It's detached with fencing so you can't tell it's part of the house, so the idea is to choose a color that carries through to the patio and brick (inspo photo with my boy Luke on the left)

Nice, that's the way to do it. I've got leggings on under my pants and three shirts even with the heat cranked lol. Glad the sun came out at least. Wild I was wearing shorts 2 days ago!

Its illogical how cathartic I feel to redecorate after a breakup, it's not like those dudes GAF about decor (or most of my interests) beyond "where can I put my video game and/or things that should have been left at the bar" anyway ๐ But it is, plus look at how cute this print & new bedspread are!

Y'all I think I screwed up parenting. I got one of those Wu-Tang for President 93 shirts, and showed my teen.
Me (very seriously): Wu-Tang is for the Children, you know.
Them (also very seriously): we still haven't learned a lot about US elections in Civics class.
