What is Reddit's opinion of
Dogpile?
From 3.5 billion Reddit comments
25 reviews of this app found across Reddit:
Back in the day, before Google became the search engine to end all search engines, you had 5 to 10 major search engines that would all return different results. Dogpile aggregated them so that you can search all at once.
It's an old "metasearch" website that somehow still exists.
See, back in the day before Google dominated Internet search, you had a number of different search engines. Yahoo, HotBot, AltaVista, Excite, Lycos, etc.
So with a website like Dogpile, you could search the search engines.
If you Google ""bad penny" battlebots" you get a variety of links to this subreddit.
I also got the same/similar results with the following search engines:
and of course using the Reddit search bar.
> I bet Yahoo is your homepage too, isn't it.
Nope, I have my own ballin' ass anglefire home page with http://www.dogpile.com/ built in! So 1337!!
But seriously, Bing is better than google for images. If you don't believe me compare the two side by side.
The only thing I have ever found is this. On the right side are links for various categories. Men are missing at a rate almost three times to women. Missing aboriginal men 2.4 times that of women. That is missing persons only. This article claims that stats for murdered aboriginal men are not kept by the RCMP whereas stats for women are.
I have to go but I am going to see if I can find more. Not likely, though
It is possible, yes. For some reason it doesn't have an about:config setting though, so we're going to need to use the Web Developer tools.
For this example, we're going to change the about:home search box to use DogPile. It still exists!
Go to about:home and open the ScratchPad from the Web Developer menu (or Shift+F4). Paste this in to it:
var name = "DogPile";
var url = "http://www.dogpile.com/search/web?q=_searchTerms_";
localStorage["search-engine"] = '{"name":"'+name+'","searchUrl":"'+url+'"}';
Execute -> Run will set your about:home search provider to DogPile.
Refresh the page and test.
To customize:
- The
namevariable isn't very important. Setting it to 'Google' makes the logo appear. - To find out the
urlof your own provider, do a search for something and copy the URL. Replace something with _searchTerms_ and paste within the quotes.
If you ever want to search for an audio file-not music- use Dogpile
I was searching for the sound of the elevator doors opening from the original Star Trek TV show and Dogpile has a different logarithm than Google and I was able to find it immediately.
Killing/burying search results for specific content due to DMCA requests is not the same thing as "making it so that search operators no longer function" (which is what I stated as an impossible theoretical development).
Search Operators are things like "AND" or "OR" in Boolean search. Or "filetype:" or "site:", etc.
If they removed operators, like "filetype:" or "OR", search functionality of the entire system would be completely compromised.
Like I said, yeah, they can kill search results of what people find using operators, but that doesn't mean the operators themselves are no longer functioning.
And once again, like I said:
>As for music, yeah, I'm sure DMCA is used to shut down mp3 links when people find them. But you can still try https://duckduckgo.com/ with all the above search operators to search for .torrent and .rar or .zip files.
So you can use other search engines like https://duckduckgo.com or http://www.dogpile.com/ to get different results than the curated selection that Google feeds you.
It's not that the operators don't work, exactly, it's that Google, when they get a DMCA letter, will hide a particular search result the letter relates too, and the operator won't bring it up any more. But that doesn't exactly mean the operators themselves aren't working - because operators are crucial to accurate searching and research.
So use all the operators I mentioned, just don't use them on only Google. Though you could still start with google, and then move to another engine if you don't get what you want.
If someone has recently put up a textbook, and google hasn't yet received a DMCA, you could very well find that textbook using google. It just might not have been buried yet.
And when it does get buried, you could use a different search engine.
Here's one from a website that's loaded with information or search functions foreskin [scroll down a bit for "Web results"].
edit: I have never produced pre-cum.
One is the equivalent of a state attorney general and the other is a special forces foot soldier. They are in different leagues, and different games. If anybody can be compared to Poklonskaya it is Transnistria's foreign minister and deputy prime minister Nina Shtanski

That Google link was wrong. It should look like this: www.google.com.
As for your WinRAR problem, RARs come from dinosaurs, and computers are in offices, so just Google "Dinosaur Office" and you should be sure to find it.
Interesting question. I just did a quick search with the terms substance abuse gender and got this and this as well as lots of other hits.
The paper has a definite focus on women but does say this:
>It is currently difficult to ascertain the degree to which sexual and physical abuse plays a role in male drug misuse, since it is far less documented.
It's a starting point anyway.
Don't think there's any easy way to find out, it's not in the user profile.
I'd have to go to each reddit you submitted to to find it, though it might be possible to search for it.... Yep, Searching for <code>"created by mangocats", reddit.com</code> on dogpile returned /r/deer, though oddly according to dogpile, it was only found on yahoo's search engine. Odd.
My daddy used Ask Jeeves, my momma used Lycos, and I ain't no traitor so I use Dogpile because it includes meta search capabilities.
...The times before Google were dark and troubled times indeed.
No problem.
There's no guarantee at all you'll find what you need, but sometimes you'll strike gold, like I did with the particular social psych textbook and study guide I referenced in my example, which I was able to find when I took that course a few years ago.
So just try to memorize the "filetype:" operator, along with the "OR" operator, and remember that [.pdf] [.doc] [.docx] [.rtf] [.txt] [.epub] and [.awz3] are the most common text file versions.
And of course [.rar] [.zip] [.torrent] and [.7z] could also bring up buried treasure. LOTS of amazing HD porn from specialized porn forums is uploaded to free download sites like FileBoom and Keep2Share in [.rar] containers, so you never know what you can find.
And again, if Google is not giving you what you want (because they do remove DMCA'd results), try https://www.duckduckgo.com or http://www.dogpile.com, or some other obscure search engine.
Generally web sites want to be on Google, because it generates lots of site visits, but they can opt out of having their page displayed on Google if they want. It's actually pretty easy. If those pages didn't want Google to display them in the results then they can ask Google to not index them by modifying their "Robots.txt" file. What has probably happened is that they decided that the traffic gained from being on Google outweighs the traffic lost by people who get their answer before making it to the page.
That said, nothing is preventing you from doing the same to Google. In fact, such a things already exists, they're called metasearch engines. One example is Dogpile which is a specific type of metasearch engine called an aggregator. That means will return results from several different search engines.
I remember a program, I want to say it was called 'dogpile', that searched a bunch of different engines and collated the results. Those were the days. Also browsing web portal categories.
EDIT: It was dogpile. Unfortunately they collect 'anonymous' data about you. Such as 'your IP address'. Yeah I wont be using them.
"What is so inconvenient about the search query that it requires an entire web API mash-up dedicated to it?"
Suggestion: use a meta search engine instead ( aggregates multiple search engine results).
A temporary option would be to use frosted window film. I have it on the front door in the rental house I am in.
Cheap and can be removed for when you expect lots of guests (like the holidays) and then put back up when you are done receiving guests (after the holidays).
Example of a LOT of styles. Find you don't like it and you can replace it with another style.
EDIT I say 'temporary' simply because it can be removed, but it is durable enough to stay up there for years. It is static cling, not adhesive backed (at least mine is and it works great).
Chrome isn't a search engine, it's a browser... but if you're meaning "Google"
Then Google is one of the better, if not the best. As it's most popular, it has the biggest library of results.
If you want something "MOAR", then you could always check out a meta search engine like Dogpile.
It is still a thing, but it is not worth a rats ass anymore.
We all do it or have done it, so what is the shame in embracing the fact that we all have enjoyed the bluer side of the interwebz?
Can't seem to find a good link for it, this dogpile search has quite a few individual cases.
There was some link on /r/all's front page, I think /r/politics, that said something like 5,800 churches were telling people who to vote for.
Neither are probably good sources, I can't seem to find good citations, I think I must admit that it might have been Reddit hype, my own fault for believing something that was on /r/politics at face value.
I had a one-off class on "research" with the high school librarian in which she expounded on the virtues of http://www.dogpile.com. Most of my peers were laughing at the url name. I was laughing because it wasn't Altavista.
