      Same.

      Then to deepen this rabbit hole further, I’ll add: so next I did a search specifically for site:wiktionary.org, and it took me to https://fi.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/sematary - I don’t even know what language that is (Google Search says “Finnish - Detected” so uh… that’s probably it).

      That’s right, Google itself is now corpo-speak, and apparently you and I can understand authentically-offered Finnish better than such for-profit “English” (max out the short-term stock bondage for the investors fr fr no cap skibidi rizz).

      The weirdest thing is that DuckDuckGo is my default (I must have re-used an old window or something to even be on Google at all?), and btw it finds the correct answer immediately. But damn this was an interesting digression today!
