   Exploring Google: A comprehensive review of the search giant

   Google has been an integral part of my digital life for many years. Its search engine is unparalleled in its ability to fine relevant information quickly and accurately. The user-friendly interface and wide range of services make it a go- to for everything from email to navigation.

   🏁 Competitors: Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo

   👍 Pros:    Google's search engine consistently delivers highly relevant results

   👎 Cons:    Google's data collection practices have raised privacy concerns among users, as the company collects vast amounts of personal information for targeted advertising.

• Most efficient filter syntax to match two TLD suffixes

  I'd like to filter the same useless content (cookie and login popups) on both bbc.com and bbc.co.uk . Should I duplicate each filter, or use one line with bbc.*, or another way? Sorry if this should be obvious but I have searched and not found a solution. Source: 12 months ago

• VMs cannot access internet

  I can ping 8.8.8.8, I can tracert to 8.8.8.8, but websites are hit and miss. I've managed to browse to download Google Chrome, but it took a few attempts. I am unable to browse to speedtest.net. I can browse to bbc.co.uk. Source: 12 months ago

• Do you watch TV much or do you mainly watch "on demand" media from the internet such as YouTube? How has your TV viewing changed or not over the last 10 or 20 so years?

  Yeah I used to as well but now I find the news here on Reddit to be just as good. If I need news articles I just look on the most recent news on places like guardian.co.uk or bbc.co.uk or NY times, Washington Post etc. Source: about 1 year ago

• For work purposes, my ping needs to be below 20 (ideally 10). What package should I upgrade too?

  One initial option is to always use wired and not wifi, having a ping below 20 ms is possible but it's unlikely with Virgin. I'm in Glasgow myself and I'm getting 12 to 13 ms to bbc.co.uk on BT Full Fibre. Source: about 1 year ago

• Why is mainstream media coverage of France so limited?

  This was literally on the front page of bbc.co.uk and cnn.com. Dunno what you're talking about. Source: about 1 year ago

• Ever Wondered What Happens When You Type google.com in your browser?

  If you’re still reading, I’ll assume you want to know more. We will get a little more technical (Not too much, hopefully). When you type google.com into your browser, your browser needs to know Google’s address. Address?, yes websites live at specific addresses. You can think of the internet as a network of roads for that link computers together. If you wanted to go to the mall, you would get on the road and... - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago
