Thanks for reposting, missed it last time. GOP will probably dismiss it as fake news and the the person who did the stats, Trump will try to sack.

Yeah Republicans definitely got smoked in blue states which was no surprise. Especially during a shutdown where both sides are to blame, but Republicans are in power so it falls more on them whether it's fair or not. They'll almost certainly get smoked again though in the 2026 midterms which will be a bigger deal. It''s good though since the change of power always reminds people how much both sides of the establishment suck and are liars who serve only themselves no matter which is currently in control.

I did not see your post, but you're right on the mark with it sounding like something Google would say. I heard on Tuesday's election Republicans didn't do so good. I have a feeling 2026 midterms are going to send a lot of Republicans packing. You can't invest billions of tax dollars into stock purchases of companies, and cut off snap benefits along with ACA subsidies, and expect ordinary voters to just accept it.

Shame Chuck Schumer & Zoe Lofgren isn't running away as well. The only problem is that whoever replaces them, Google will find a way to bribe them.

<blockquote>Google's John Mueller announced Google is "simplify the search results page" by removing "some features that aren't being used very often and aren’t adding significant value to users."</blockquote>Personally, I don't think I've never seen any of those things. Now, the rest of the horse shit that's on there... what about that JM?

Just because the truth happens to be negative doesn't make you somehow wrong or mean it shouldn't be said. Everything you said is spot on. When other people sugercoat harsh reality they don't like, that's when nothing changes and only conditions people to get complacent with bullshit they know is wrong.

Once he's finally shitcanned at Google, he'd be best suited being a lie-aison at Grindr or Blucry, since they're basically the same platform with users just like him anyway. That news link about discriminating against white people is sadly not too surprising with a shady company like Google with weak leadership. Everything woke is always proven to be the most guilty hypocrites of all when it comes to tolerance for any other viewpoints outside their hive mind and discrimination.

I don't think you're a "downer" or just focusing on the negatives. If anything, you're a realist and seeing things for what they are. Unless things change for the better, which I doubt they will, we can expect it to get much worse. About the only good news lately in the USA is Nancy Pelosi is NOT going to seek re-election. These career politicians shaping policy, to enrich themselves, should have been shown the door by voters decades ago. The destruction in the digital world by Google is fully owned by Republicans since they enabled it and refuse to interfere with Google's plans - giving birth to the modern day GOP (Google Owned Politicians).

I honestly don’t know wtf is happening to the world. It just feels so dystopian. I’m sorry if I sound like a downer here, but it is just so uncertain and scary at this point. Even I’m fearing that I might get retrenched soon because of AI. Even in the UK, things are way worse since my last rant here when I said “The UK is going down the shitter”. Now it is 50% worse. Crime rate has definitely shot up, and so have prices. Or am I just focusing on the negatives? I don’t know. But it really feels like a nightmare at this point…

Right now it appears the only thing driving the USA economy is AI hype. Everything else is suffering, and it will get much worse IMO. A government can't just give a corrupt company a key to the country, to do as they wish, and expect all to be well. Take a look at the employment related news: Job cuts in October hit highest level for the month in 22 years, Challenger says <blockquote>Layoff announcements soared in October as companies recalibrated staffing levels during the artificial intelligence boom, a sign of potential trouble ahead for the labor market, according to outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas. Job cuts for the month totaled 153,074, a 183% surge from September and 175% higher than the same month a year ago. It was the highest level for any October since 2003. This has been the worst year for announced layoffs since 2009.</blockquote>The story: <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/06/job-cuts-in-october-hit-highest-level-for-the-month-in-22-years-challenger-says.html">https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/06/job-cuts-in-october-hit-highest-level-for-the-month-in-22-years-challenger-says.html</a>

Sorry to go off-topic, but my God man… Things just keep getting depressing around here. One of my writers from the US just messaged me asking if I got any writing job for him. Then we catch up a little, and he said because of the lack of orders (I was one of his major clients), he had to resort to the food bank and stamps. And as we know, SNAP benefits are having issue around in the US, he and his family are suffering. The tone of his email feels so desperate, but I told him I’ve quit the line and that my website will expire by this week. He then just disappears without responding to the last message. Again, it may just be a lie or exaggeration to get orders, but who knows... Fuck. I feel so haunted by this. It is like you want to help, but there’s nothing you can do about it.

JM is another pawn in what has become the world's most corrupt corporation to ever exist. Here's another lawsuit against Google by a former employee claiming he was discriminated for being white. This isn't surprising though because both Google and Microsoft fired a lot of American workers then replaced them with H1B Visa workers afterwards. In our GBP we can select black owned business but not white. That tells us something about their anti-white company practices. Google faces lawsuit claiming White exec was blacklisted after reporting intoxicated supervisor <blockquote>A former Google Cloud executive claims he was told promotions were off-limits because he's White—then blacklisted after complaining about his intoxicated supervisor.</blockquote><blockquote>Huesman's direct supervisor Brian Mills allegedly told him explicitly: "don't expect a company like Google to ever promote a white guy in this culture." Shah had earlier stated to Huesman in front of others that he didn't want "rich, white guys who drive Mercedes and golf all day" at Google. The lawsuit notes Huesman doesn't play golf and describes the remark as clearly based on a derogatory stereotype of White people.</blockquote>The story: <a href="https://www.hcamag.com/us/specialization/diversity-inclusion/google-faces-lawsuit-claiming-white-exec-was-blacklisted-after-reporting-intoxicated-supervisor/555542">https://www.hcamag.com/us/specialization/diversity-inclusion/google-faces-lawsuit-claiming-white-exec-was-blacklisted-after-reporting-intoxicated-supervisor/555542</a>

Structured data should be discontinued altogether. Because it is built on the premise that webmasters benefit from making their pages easier to understand for Google. But today it's the opposite.

When I sold on ChinaZon I encountered a lot of people who would just order one of everything and return the one item they needed. Most ChinaZon shoppers are slobs and don't give a shit because all they have to do is complain to some offshore rep they got charged a restocking fee, then they got their money back by Amazon taking it from us and hitting our metrics. For these types of irresponsible shoppers, AI will help enable them to quickly order one of everything for them because they are too stupid or lazy to actually read and not waste the seller's time/money.

<blockquote>removing "some features that aren't being used very often and aren’t adding significant value to users."</blockquote>So this means Google is dropping their AI shit, all the ad spam and of course those worthless People Also Piss boxes? Since Google stole our intellectual property, and dropped support for sending traffic to our sites, who gives a shit what any Google criminal gaslighter has to say?

Why on Earth would I want to give one company my account details to another company? Not Agentic or Angelic about it. If something goes wrong, each company would blame the other. If I want to buy something from ChinaZon, I go to their site, not tell Perplexity to create an order. Am I wrong?

For those with stores: Reported on Roosters, ChinaZon is suing Perplexity because of Comet's AI shopping assistant. The good news about AI shopping is it doesn't give a shit about ads, so this helps to degrade the ad spam business model these big techies rely on. The bad news for sellers is AI ordering shit will generate more returns and force sellers to raise prices. Amazon sues Perplexity over 'agentic' shopping tool - <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/retail-consumer/perplexity-receives-legal-threat-amazon-over-agentic-ai-shopping-tool-2025-11-04/">https://www.reuters.com/business/retail-consumer/perplexity-receives-legal-threat-amazon-over-agentic-ai-shopping-tool-2025-11-04/</a> <blockquote>Amazon sued Perplexity AI on Tuesday over the startup’s "agentic" shopping feature, which uses automation to place orders for users, saying it covertly accessed Amazon customer accounts and disguised automated activity as human browsing. The clash highlights an emerging debate over regulation of the growing use of AI agents and their interaction with websites, aiming to make them more autonomous and capable of handling everyday online tasks. </blockquote>

<blockquote>at some point LLMs are going to need new content to learn from and they would have to find the way to reward publishers</blockquote>You think a convict company, that already destroyed publishers, gives a shit about us? Google wants to only line their pockets and reward shareholders. Google will do this by any unlawful means knowing they are protected by government and the courts. About the only way this changes is if people quit using Google and advertisers quit giving them money. Otherwise Google will fabricate content if they can't get it from one of their contracted partners or steal it another way (scouring emails in Gmail, texts/typing on android devices, etc.). Google might also harvest content/steal privacy from GermInEye powered crApple devices too. Google is a huge blood sucking leech on the world. Apple nears deal to pay Google $1B annually to power new Siri, report says - <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/11/05/apple-nears-deal-to-pay-google-1b-annually-to-power-new-siri-report-says/">https://techcrunch.com/2025/11/05/apple-nears-deal-to-pay-google-1b-annually-to-power-new-siri-report-says/</a> <blockquote>Apple is nearing a deal with Google that would see the iPhone maker pay the tech giant roughly $1 billion a year for a custom version of Google’s Gemini AI model to power its overhaul of Siri, according to a new report from Bloomberg.</blockquote>
