Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You can search by image? Oh brave new world!

Yep.

I had a Firefox plugin years ago that allowed me to search by image (via a right-click). Perhaps there's a similar plugin for Opera.

Ah, here it is: www.tineye.com

You can search directly, or get plugins for various browsers, including Opera.

Dunno how it compares to Google's Search by Image.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Don't think it hasn't occured to me to take them. But I only got a few...

And what says "Happy birthday, America" more than "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going"? This is why I usually go to bed -- I hate this Pops crap. First the "patriotic singalong," then whatever big-name singer they can book.

Big planes are going by overhead. I don't know if they're patriotic flyovers or tankers for the wildfires.

OBVIOUSLY Dreamgirls is not crap. It's just not that patriotic. And I guess I hate Keith Lockhart? So he taints the whole affair.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Google is much better than Tineye, even though it does seem to have kinks. It lets you sort your results by size, tells you what words are the best to use to return that picture, and then lists all the web pages where you can find it, as well as "similar" photos--which go from really very nifty for me (other shots of the same guy in beards or glasses or whatever) to interesting (pictures of other guys with beards, similarly posed and dressed) to whuh (I give you Jared Padalecki, you give me beach babes? Okay, I'll play...)

Compare:

  • google search by image (dammit--can't even link to results--but I searched on this
  • tineye
