F to the sweaty bastards who had to lay those pipes through the desert

if bing hadnt banned or changed their porn search,they would have doubled their revenue by now

Bing doesn't monetize for shit in China. So, no.

Source: I helped build Bing (first Windows Live Search) in China (and could tell you all sorts of stories of government interference).

You're not dumb, the visualization is so confusing

Why is a search engine being compared to small social media companies?

Ahh so that's the great Australian dead zone that my sister who moved down there was telling me about. Said it was huge but this puts into perspective

This graphic is abominable

Bing is actually pretty good now. Been trying it since the last update. Used to really hate it before.

I use it for things like asking when such and such is coming up. ie: When is X movie release date, when is this next fight, concert, etc.

While it's slow to wait for a response sometimes depending on the question and waiting for the typing, I'll usually just come back to it. The ability to refine that answer is the cherry on top.

It's not as good as chatgpt or copilot for technical questions, where it shines is when you're looking for an answer for current events since it's internet aware and search based. It's like having a secretary compile information from search results for you. It's useful in its own niche.

I think it was Sathya that said, Google makes more money off searches on Windows, than MS makes on those windows machines. When they were promoting their new chatgpt bing integration, they were talking about how even a few percentage points would be billions of dollars.

89% of Colombia's flowers are grown in:

• Atlantico ($836,000).
• DC Bogota ($696 million)
• the surrounding department of Cundinamarca ($560.3 million)
• the departments of Antioquia ($285.2 million)
• Risaralda ($1.2 million)

It would be interesting to see the value per search too. I'd assume that older people who don't know how to download chrome might be more likely to click on ads etc.

When you include the truly big alternatives such as alibaba(including amap), wechat search, toutiao, meituan, dianping ect baidu is not big at all.

Search engines are not that big in china. Baidu don't nearly have the monoply as google has in the west

I use Ecosia to plant trees while searching and they use Bing.

The data might be beautiful but this format is hideous.

What that big white area in the middle?

Absolutely. But some locals use Bing for international searches. That was my experience at least.

Sorry, you lost this argument and can't waive away the truth by calling them "poor excuses".

The USA and the west haven't always lived up to their own ideals, without a doubt. But we are pretty darn open about our mistakes and bad choices and, ultimately, our ideals are the right ones. Your wrong about what we care about - we definitely care about the freedoms of others because you must fight for freedom for all or you will eventually lose your own freedoms. And of course, without freedom you are someone else's slave at some level.

Maybe start questioning the state propaganda that your clearly been taking to heart. You're on reddit so you must have some access to the wider internet.

...or maybe you are a state sponsored troll yourself. Who knows.

Until you realise 97% of searches on Bing are “google”

Which color is gas and which is oil? This is supposed to be r/dataisbeautiful, not r/dataisunclearatbest

You should post it as a video instead of a gif, so everyone is able to pause and see the end result in full. A nice animation tho.

because they are willing to censor for the ccp
