Bing rolls out a new search interface that might steal you away from Google

https://www.androidauthority.com/bing-generative-search-update-3464659/

Bing will now display rich AI-generated information boxes in response to select search queries.

lmfao

NOPE feck that pish after setting my google search to avoid AI overlays why would anyone think that another search engine with AI overlays would be better than the other

Bing’s AI summaries haven’t faced much controversy since their debut in 2023.

🤣

however the Falcon portal’s last active dates for some of the referenced actors are as recent as July 2024, suggesting the data was obtained very recently.

That data is available to tens of thousands of its approved customers, partners and prospects, as well as hundreds of thousands of users but is not available publicly.

A hacktivist group has claimed to have leaked CrowdStrike’s entire internal threat actor list, including indicators of compromise (IoC).

#CrowdStrike acknowledged the claims by the USDoD threat actor in a blog post on July 25, 2024

The sample leak contained data with “LastActive” dates until no later than June 2024

If you're on a computer, there's a way you can make the web tab the default option when you use Google Search online.

Or via browser Settings > Search engine > Manage search engines and site search. From there, select Add next to the “Site search” section. Add a nickname for your AI-less version of Google in the “Name” section, add a shortcut, and paste in this URL:

{google:baseURL}search? q=%s&udm=14

#AI overviews are annoying so here's a workaround for you(posted this before)

only for google search

The workaround is to use the Web tab that appears at the top of Google search results. If you don't see it -- it should be in there with the "All," "News" and "Images" tabs -- scroll left or right until you do. You'll still initially see an AI summary at the top, but this allows you to quickly go to a more traditional search, filled with only links.

Geoff White (https://x.com/geoffwhite247) tells us what happened to Axie Infinity and Tornado cash. It’s a digital heist of epic proportions that changes everything. This story comes from part of Geoff’s book “Rinsed” which goes into the world of money laundering.

@stueytheround @janallmac don't think I've tried that one, well back when I was a drinker I might have, name doesn't ring bells

Loadsa wee local shops make their own blends and they are pretty nice - like I said though blended and single malt both have good and bad bottles when I was drinking I preferred blended

More coffee vicar

@janallmac This is not correct, they’re just different, and there are plenty of great and not-so-great examples of both. Part of the shade that gets thrown at blended whiskey is likely a result of its sheer volume.

You probably know the difference case you didn't know the difference

@janallmac its hard to say if any are still available mostly all were sold privately and rest were opened to mix with other whiskey's... Chances of having a real bottle that someone would be willing to open is very slim.

As for taste it'd probably taste as expected considering the wax seal they used on whiskey back then..... Blended whiskey is by far the best IMO - There is a lingering perception that single malts are always superior to blends.

And if the story sounds familiar to some then you mighta see whiskey galore or read the book.

Whisky Galore! is a 2016 British film, a remake of the 1949 Ealing Comedy of the same name, itself based on the novel of the same name by Compton Mackenzie.

That book and movie is about this story.

These two bottles are originals from the ship wreck

🥃 cheers

The bottles are now common auction items but they do not command high prices, in many instances failing to reach the original asking price.

The brand was later revived by Euan Shand as a blended Scotch, though the modern incarnation features zero salvaged whisky.

So if you see one, like in this PIC, it is NOT an original whisky, so to speak, its a "mix" of whiskeys and it sure ain't one from the actual ship wreck.

In order to try and retrieve the situation company chairman Jeremy Brough decided to blend some of the salvaged whisky with contemporary aged malts and grains to create a luxury SS Politician blend. These bottles were presented in boxed crystal decanters with a numbered neck label and a price tag of £195

Several thousand were issued but sales were poor and in due course the company was forced into receivership.
