True search aficionados now use duckduckgo, as the wizardry needed to get even half-acceptable results requires far more mastery than even the most adept at googling.
There's been a bunch of times where I've spent 30 minutes scouring google for something and gotten it front page first time on duckduck go. Either I've gotten used to its quirks or it's way better than it was before quarantine.

Huh, I still have the exact opposite feeling in it. I use it for all my unimportant random crap, but it still fails a lot on anything complex or too specific, even with much more savvy use of keywords and stuff that work right away with google.

In the white whale thread I found an old flash video for someone by discovering the Fanimutation wiki has a character page for Windows ME

Neil Ciergia should apply for amnesty and Jeffpartations. He got helldumped (not for anything specific, just kinda helldumped for being neil ciergia), and his defense was to play a cartoonish prick. He did suck a good job his tormenters got banned, but he got a perma for what is in retrospect a hilarious bit of trolling.

At some point "Neil Ciergia's sister made a webcomic" turned into "Emmy Ciergias brother made funny flash videos" and he was forgotten, but every few years someone posts a reminder that animutations exist and that causes something in the brain to burst like an aneurysm and its like "Oh my god THAT loving thing" and you hear the horrible music

He's done some pretty notable things since 2001. He's probably too well known to post here under his own name without it being a nuisance.

You do not have to be good. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves.
If y’all think Neil Cicierega has somehow fallen from glory y’all owe it to yourselves to go listen to his Mouth Sounds albums right the gently caress now.

He and his sister went to a Waldorf school where they let kids study whatever they're interested in, and they became internet celebs back when that wasn't really a word yet. It's been years since I checked but Emmy had a good webcomic and Neil got together a very online band who put out a lot of music. Neil was active on SA under the nick Trapezoid I think, When he go helldumped he tried to out-dick his tormentors, and did such a good job that he got perma'd. Not for doing anything, just for acting like a pompous dick. In retrospect it was unfair... it made his helldumpers so furious that they caught a bunch of probes.

I want to go find it in archives to do some comedy paleontology, but I also don't want to because when you go digging through Helldump you get poo poo all over your hands up to the elbow. So don't trust me on this.

The concept of Helldump has aged like a carton of milk. It doesn't seem like it at first if you only skim the goldmined posts, but it got real problematic. But heres a trip down memory lane:
