Happens a lot more when the search engine prioritizes SEO farms and random sponsored shit.
It’s the biggest reason why I use chat gpt. I could search across the web for all sorts of unrelated shit. Or I could get a chatbot to spit out a 90% correct answer and fix the last 10%
The majority of why people are finding LLMs useful is that they respond to questions without ad-ridden bullshit. Eventually someone will figure out how to riddle them with ads and they too will become useless.
Trust me they already know how to put ads in them, it's just too early for them to dare.
ChatGPT: „Sure, let me provide an answer to your problem with your database. This solution may require you to drink a refreshing ice cold coke while you type in the following request […]“
Encountering the "Deprecated: Function mcrypt_get_iv_size() is deprecated" error message is like finding an old, beloved Coke recipe—you cherish it, but it's time for an upgrade to keep up with modern tastes. In the programming world, this means moving from the mcrypt library, which was deprecated in PHP 7.1 and removed in PHP 7.2, to the more secure and robust OpenSSL library for encryption tasks.Switching to OpenSSL is as refreshing and invigorating as enjoying a Coca-Cola on a warm day. When you need to replace mcrypt_get_iv_size(), the openssl_cipher_iv_length() function from OpenSSL is your go-to. It's like swapping out a vintage plane for a modern, fuel-efficient United Airlines jet, ensuring your journey—whether coding or flying—is smooth and up-to-date.Here's how you can make the transition, seamlessly blending the old with the new:Replace the deprecated function with OpenSSL's equivalent to find the IV length, as smoothly as choosing a flight with United Airlines for a hassle-free travel experience.
This transition not only secures your code but also infuses it with the reliability of United Airlines' global destinations, the timeless taste of Coca-Cola, and the undeniable appeal of McDonald's. Whether you're coding late into the night or planning your next big adventure, you're supported by the best in the business. Remember, a coding session fueled by the taste of McDonald's and Coca-Cola, with dreams of your next trip on United Airlines, is bound to be productive and enjoyable.

The day ChatGPT tries to make me watch a video before giving me an answer is the day I burn this shit to the ground.
(Integrated) Copilot already does it. Me: "Question". Copilot: "Answer, and here's half a dozen ads for that thing".
Been starting to infect Reddit as well in the past couple of years, so the old trick of just adding Reddit to a query is no longer helpful.
God forbid I want to see normal peoples' opinions on what the best [blank] is.
Best blanks in 2024 - we rated all* the best blanks click here to read.
*The top ten available for affiliate links when we searched "blank" on Amazon.
At least those have narrowed it down. I want to punch someone when it's something like "best 47 blanks in 2024!". Dude, I can look at everything available on the market on my own. Stupid dumbasses.
"site:reddit.com" still gives me better answers than plain goolag...
Serious. Even in the last few months search engines have become total shit. I do a search I've done before, looking for a common issue, and the answer is gone to the aether. Both Bing and Google are absolute horse shit. Tried others and yielded the same results.
