one thing a computer can do that most humans can't is be sealed up in a cardboard box and sit in a warehouse

the most annoying verbatim being purposefully broken thing i've run across is if you include "positive" or "negative" in the query it'll swap in "yes" or "no" instead

last april google finally ended support for the version of google earth that works with microstation - they dropped it hard enough that it can't contact their servers anymore

so now we can't use it to import georeferenced aerial photography into engineering plans, that's kind of a big deal lol

an extremely cool feature of google earth was the ability to pull a GPS track off a Garmin device and import it straight in so you could see your little hike on the terrain. Google's abandonment of their sort of maximalist approach to design has been really sad, every service you can watch good useful features just drop away for seemingly no reason

i open google earth now and it's just WHOOPS SORRY with a big pixelated image of america zoomed out
