For the lady in the photo, this is a very passive way to immanentize the eschaton.
She could be taking a more active part. Like going there. Doesn’t really matter for which army.
Because I don’t think there are participation trophies at the apocalypse.
I want to add a plug here for @kagihq, but every attempt at writing something ended in a pitch that might as well run as one of those “it's too good to be true, but it _is_ true — call now, operators are standing by!" 😁
But seriously, though: If that description reflects how a search engine _should_ behave, you really should take Kagi for a spin. I ain't going back to any other alternative, and the few bucks per month are well worth it for what you get in return. https://theblower.au/@frogglin/116270900318436072
I like the menu bar icons because they help me more easily parse menus but I recognize they don’t work for everyone and I’m glad there is a workaround
That being said, it should be a more easily accessible option.

I really dislike Apple’s choice to clutter macOS Tahoe’s menus with icons. It makes menus hard to scan, and a bunch of the icons Apple has chosen make no sense and are inconsistent between system applications. Steve Troughton-Smith is my hero for finding a Terminal command to disable them: Here’s one for the icons-in-menus haters […]
@jochenwolters When I see stuff like that, I also wonder: was there a designer? Because there isn't always.
And did they get listened to? I used to work at a company where designs were treated, at best, as "inspirations" for the developers. QA would test against what the developer said their vision was.
When people wonder why I've become disillusioned with today’s #UX practice, it's because of designs like this one.
All that talk about how #AI will make designers unnecessary, blah-blah-blah. And then "we" can't even design a simple sign-in process without including a step that creates plenty of cognitive effort — only to then not apply to this user at all.
Why bother with a design practice that cares so little about its users that it botches something as simple as this? ☹️
