It’s not immune to it. If you are looking for something highly specific you will get slob for sure. To give an actual example, a buddy of mine told me that the walls of your house act like a sponge when you have the outer walls insulated but not the basement walls on the outside, at least against water. So I went looking on kagi for stuff to back that up (not that I didn’t believe him, I just wanted to know more). A lot of the results were completely ai generated crap websites. There were good and somewhat relevant results, but in the end I gave up (also because we got confirmation that it’s done on our house, so it became irrelevant).

Almost none so not zero?

There are plenty of toll evaders, homeless, minorities, and otherwise lesser people whose lives you could have taken, and were that the case I would not feel so inclined to mete out such a harsh sentence but in this instance you leave me no choice but to impose the harshest ruling possible.

Never change, The Onion, never change!

He technically didn’t brainwash them into setting him free. He convinced the pirates to double his ransom and to let him walk free around the camp, where he often and loudly told them that he would come back and have them all killed, once his ransom was paid and they let him go. Then he did exactly that.
