IDK how many of you have been recently PISSED that you can't right click to just search for an image in Chrome anymore. Instead it offers you the option to search with Google Lens, which uses the power of AI to find every similar image that ISN'T the one you're looking for. AMAZING!!
Well, for now you can deactivate that fantastic feature by putting this in your browser: chrome://flags/#enable-lens-regi...
Change the Lens setting from 'default' to 'disabled.' You're welcome!
- i seem to have an extension called 'search by image' by google that i don't remember installing and is no longer on the store :-skingsteven

- Nice thanks, i have to strike out screenshots from my arguments against chrome, we still have that memory eating thing! :Dsted
- You can take screenshots of separate div's, just right click on them in the codedrgs
- If you use macOS Paparazzi does this really well (with batching), even better is the layered PSD you can get with Flying Meat's Acorn.evilpeacock
- This works best for us for full size screenshots.

i really need to start looking into Figma, seeing as World + Dog + QBN seems to rave about it.
"Makers is a Figma Plugin to help you build and publish sites directly in Figma. No code required".
- Lots of Figma plugins are cool, but with $5-20 a month per plugin it's like a 1000 tiny cuts in subscriptions.evilpeacock
- Which plugins are you using???duckseason

- I like it, thank yourobthelad
- I used this to cheat at Wordle the other night. Not proud, but i was totally stuck on what turned out to be a really obvious word.Nairn
- I was at the 'see what shit sticks' stage of guesswork, thinking some MiddleEastern spice, or something. Nope, it was 'ahead' or somesuch, ffs.Nairn
