Trivial rant but why do recipe websites have to be absolute trash and basically unusable?
So use this and there will be no need to rant about it again

Well, if you get picky you can. If you use it for a recipe that has let's say, a marinade, a cooking sauce, some fancy rice and a bread, then it gets confused.....So needs to used with some intelligence.....
And my rant is, if I want to set up a cooking/lifestyley/introspection website, then I can do what the fuck I want.
You don't have to read it

@Giles many thanks…you just saved me loads of frustration. And I actually agree with you in that I don’t mind the stories/lifestyle vibe…I mean it’s their site. What I hate are the pop up ads, the videos that self play, the constant reloads, that make navigating said site very unpleasant. But now I have a new tool to avoid that…brilliant

@northsouthdenimguy they got you to stop in and browse though!

@Giles you can do what you want, sure, then your sponsorship revenue dries up because everyone either skips it or uses an ad filter

@Tobi I agree with you. It was a bit slippery.

I should be correcting exams, but I'm watching youtube videos about spinning top toys that are based on a Japanese kids show instead ... .

WHY do all these 'smart' TVs have LAG?! I miss the days when you push a button and the thing responds instantaneously. Combine this with the dumbass Search alphabet interface all streaming services now have it is a recipe for rage-yeeting the remote at the screen.

@Matt You're absolutely right my blue friend! It was crucial for me to get familiar with the current meta. I mean, I don't want to look like an numpty in front of junior pupils.

I have zero interest in technology that is so intent on putting so many out of work. The fact that the tech giants are not even hiding it at this point is even more frightening.

Now on the flip side, I understand that it takes time for new jobs to be created and the workforce to catch up to those changes…but in the interim…

@StarsSuck I have not…my feelings about AI are complicated so it would take a lot for me to make that jump. I could see it being a useful tool for this kind of stuff though
