Two tbsp of sugar is 9k calories. I swear I didn’t photoshop this. The weird font seriously appears in my Google app on iOS. Does anyone else see this when they search?

Google notes help

Seems like I have accidentally deleted my class notes from my google notes. Does anyone know who could help me find them, recover them? There is nothing in my trash to recover, so where did they go? I have sent an email to google, but I am sure someone has had this happen to them and thought maybe I could get some help? Thanks.

google searches doesn't show something for all

I tried searching for things like "area of (shape)" and it shows the type in normally. But when I tried on "prism", it doesn't show things like the other ones but shows text instead of doing the input - output calculation

(As you can see in the image, usually most of area of shapes have those just like the first image (cube). But... the Prism one doesn't do that)

Why does Google keep saying they have detected unusual traffic from my network?

I keep getting these errors in incognito while browsing google that say they have detected unusual traffic and they want to make sure I am not a robot. It had a disclaimer their that it detects requests from my network which appears to violate their Terms of Service.

It started a couple days ago, I am not going to lie, I have pretty serious anxiety and I have a tendency to Google a lot of things, and I got that error when doing paranoid googling. Now anything I try to Google in incognito mode is giving me that error. I am not, nor have I sought out illegal content/weapons/anything dangerous to public safety.

Is it something I googled that set off this error (I don't know what I could google that would violate their TOS besides the aforementioned things), is it from Googling too much, or is there something else that is wrong? I am on apartment wifi, but I think each room has its own modem if I'm not mistaking, so I don't know what the problem could be.

Dear google. I love your random pictures on all my devices. But I could not care any less who took the photo. I just want to know what and where I'm looking at.

Seriously. Some of the pix are beautiful but are so out of context I can't tell if I'm looking at a micro or a macro shot of something.

Google+

I don't know if Google looks here, it kinda looks like a spam sub now, but I'm cage you're looking, Google+ was ahead of your time.
I am done with Facebook. I'm looking for an alternative.

Google Instrux to remove Gemini from Gmail do NOT work

Incredibly the instructions Google gives to remove the intrusive Gemini from Gmail don't even remotely work. Does anyone have instructions that do work?

Here is what Google says:

  1. Go to your Google Account settings -- we do have Account settings if you look hard
  2. Navigate to the Security section -- there is a Security section
  3. Find Gemini under Connected apps -- there is no Gemini under Connected apps
  4. Disable Gemini

What do you think of the Westeuindid co-founder of YouTube Jawed Karim's criticism of YouTube removing the dislike button? (The attached article was written about 3 years ago). Do you find his views on the button's removal to be agreeable or not? (I share Jawed's distaste of YouTube's decision).

AI Overview has access to my location (screenshots attached)

Upon searching for how to implement working date & time access into my program, the ai overview decided to tell me the date based on my actual town. I'm really confused now, did the ai always have access to this information? I see it only works when querying for "ollama current date and time", but not simply "date and time" or "date". The weirdest thing was that the sources it linked had nothing to do with its response. Is this normal?

It still happened after I disabled location services.
