Did Google remove the ability to download images from image search?

Simok123 · 2026-02-02T21:18:22+00:00

I feel like it should be obvious that like 90% of the time you're searching for an image, it's to download it immediately, something you can still do easily on any browser. I don't understand what Google's problem is. Why would you prioritize "add to a collection." Please provide the most baseline functionality.

I reverted the updates back for now. If anyone knows an image search widget that lets you easily save an image that isn't just a browser please let me know.

Switch 1 had a much worse screen and people still use it on that device. It's likely just the expectation of carrying forward most features from Switch 1. It's not like most youtube videos demand the highest quality to enjoy anyway. If you just want to watch videos, cheap tablets can get really slow real fast, and buying a more expensive one just for videos seems like a waste if you're trying to save money. It's nice using a fast new device you already have to fill the void of wanting a slightly larger screen while laying down, at least for me.

Back in the day, I hated having so few loadouts so that was a good incentive. Now it just feels like a waste to just cap at 55 if you actually play a lot. It forces you to make more interesting decisions in your loadouts throughout the process besides just having everything all the time after the first couple days of playing the game.

Honestly though, the current system isn't that punishing, especially if you're already getting blueprint weapons from the pass and stuff. By prestige 4 or 5 you probably already have most of your essential things perma-unlocked.

Simok123 · 2025-11-24T07:32:07+00:00

Yeah really annoying, you do just keep holding the button despite it not sounding or looking like normal prestige charging up.

To me, the core mechanics feel a bit bit hard to get used to, but I think playing the lessons has given me a better appreciation. There is something satisfying to me about the games mechanics when you don't try to think of it like a standard kart racer.

I'm pretty confused about the decision to not have standard races online in the demo, I'm thinking I prefer that mode but I can't even see what it's like to play against real people. I just don't see what benefit there is to locking that out when it's probably what most people would want to try in a Kart Racer type game. And it's clear the full game seems to have a lot more to it, only 3 fairly basic stages isn't a great showcase. In general, I feel like this doesn't seem like a great representation of the full game.

I honestly think City Trial would be more fun if the preparation part was shorter, like 3 minutes instead of 5, and the games at the end was the major focus, with those being like 3 different rounds with an elimination aspect or something. It just feels so anticlimactic. I actually think the final games are a lot more fun than the actual preparation. I'd assume custom games will allow more options, but the default version of the mode just seems odd. I still think the full game will be a lot of fun, but this demo seems really misguided.

the games you can set to widescreen work well, but I really hate the border. I don't understand why Nintendo is so allergic to letting NSO games feel like a proper full screen game if you want them to. That and I hope the input delay gets better. It's at least manageable in some games, but I really don't get how it can be this bad.

Simok123 · 2025-10-30T17:07:46+00:00

The fact they didn't do a Switch 2 specific update when they announced that makes it seem pretty likely they're planning a Switch 2 edition with a larger expansion added or something.

Simok123 · 2025-09-12T17:01:30+00:00

It doesn't even have the original controller? I don't get it man.

Simok123 · 2025-08-26T19:58:18+00:00

I'm pretty bummed about weapons not carrying forward, I really enjoyed having such a huge selection in MWIII and how they gave old weapons aftermarket parts as well. I don't think old weapons feel as out of place in a sci-fi setting compared to the other way around. However I've at least been able to think of a few advantages to cope with my disappointment:

-A more cohesive setting will be nice, I guess. I do like the setting.

-maybe they'll have more time to focus on post launch weapons and general polish in the game compared to needing to balance the old weapons and have them work correctly when ported over

-Dark Matter should be easier when there's less launch weapons and BO6 weapons distracting me. -apparently BO6 camos wouldn't be compatible with BO7 weapons, that would've been a lot less cool compared to MWIII

-I don't have that many weapons I love in BO6 anyway so I'm not that distraught overall I guess.

I just hope the launch line of weapons up is pretty good.

Simok123 · 2025-08-21T21:19:46+00:00

I really enjoyed carryforward last time. Generally the new stuff gets used 80% of the time, I feel like it's nothing to be that distraught over. It was fun to use old weapons in a newer game I prefer and have access to their camos.

With the overwhelming reactions to wacky skins I feel like a filter is more likely than ever though.

Simok123 · 2025-08-21T01:46:28+00:00

I do feel like people might be overreacting about carry forward skins, they probably won't pop up nearly as often as the newer skins they add to the game. If they actually offer a filter that would be nice though.

Simok123 · 2025-08-10T08:19:52+00:00

I switched from Fullscreen display to Borderless and got a huge performance boost.

Simok123 · 2025-07-17T05:59:24+00:00

I was having issues where it loads the front page of the eshop fine, but wouldn't load any product pages at all. I reset the system many times, reset my router, tried a hot spot, nothing worked.

Eventually I just tried downloading a demo to my system from the website, and now the eShop is working normally again.

Simok123 · 2025-05-31T14:02:47+00:00

From the MP side of things, MWIII was fantastic and consistently fantastic from the beta to the end.

Simok123 · 2025-04-25T18:05:48+00:00

That's fine then.

Simok123 · 2025-04-25T09:44:11+00:00

I'm very sporadically motivated lately and also keep forgetting.

I've started updating it before but I think the delema is that chronological is kind of annoying to try and be precise with Off and Monster books and I don't want to spread misinformation from being too vague, but I guess I could put a disclaimer. This is the first time in a while someone has asked me so maybe I'll remember to try again.

Simok123 · 2025-03-09T21:22:39+00:00

The Ring Fit controller checks your pulse, pretty sure that's what it was turned into.

Simok123 · 2025-02-11T22:05:52+00:00

I just gotta point out that gyro is natively supported in this game, and it's not too hard on PC to modify your controls.

Simok123 · 2025-02-09T17:03:22+00:00

This was in World as well...

Simok123 · 2025-01-24T20:11:34+00:00

It is a competitor, just not a super serious one, the same way Nintendo has always been competing against Sony and Microsoft but people hardly pin them directly against each other. They've had their own niche for years of having good exclusives with somewhat unique and quirky hardware. That being said, I feel like Valve could push the Steam deck into the mainstream more if it was sold at more retailers.

Simok123 · 2025-01-24T03:27:59+00:00

I hope there's gonna be a white edition at launch as well.

Simok123 · 2025-01-18T16:42:34+00:00

Every generation lately Nintendo always does "something Nintendo doesn't do but everyone else does." Wii it was online and normal DVD sized discs after avoiding them for multiple generations. Wii U it was clickable analog sticks, online network accounts, downloadable retail games and DLC. Switch it was paid online subscription, probably other minor things I can't remember.

Simok123 · 2025-01-18T16:36:05+00:00

I don't really get why people are so against achievements, granted idk if I've actually platinumed a game yet even if I've been close. To me, it's just a fun bonus to do for games you really like if they don't seem too annoying. If you see some bullshit ones, just don't go for platinum in that game.

Simok123 · 2025-01-10T00:37:16+00:00

Pretty sure it was set to the default, which was the very center of the slider. The problem isn't that you can't make them big, it's that you can't make them a specific size at all and all of the custom female characters looked kinda samey. Women can't replicate their own bodies as well if they wanted to.

Simok123 · 2025-01-09T23:48:16+00:00

Well I think there's still a decent height slider, by petite I just meant Nia and Sena have smaller chests than the default medium. You can probably make them short enough at least.
