  I had a conversation with a coworker that was really excited when the rabbit r1 (which I think wound up actually running Android under the hood) came out. I think some people just like having little devices/toys. Things like the design and physical buttons make it seem cooler to them.

  Been on an rpg kick. Tyranny, then the Pillars of Eternity games are up next.

  I am not sure why Google would remove these important details from the search listings

  Because they’re an ad company first and foremost. It’s more important to them that you open the video than it be relevant. If you have to open a few extra videos to find the right one, you’re more likely to see an extra ad or two in the process.

  They don’t have to worry about the results being less useful until it’s bad enough people start actually using other search engines again.

  I’ll pitch Bandcamp as an option, especially if/when they bring back Bandcamp Fridays next year (where they don’t take a cut on specific days). Not everyone’s on it, but it’s generally a reasonable, legal option for those artists that are.
