Do you ever right-click on a random picture?

Then ask Cortina about it? I do that frequently and it is amazing what will show up, which can consume hours or relaxing and slide shows. There are some totally amazing folks out there we never see or hear about it appears! It helps me relax after my cancer surgery which went pretty well nearly two weeks ago.

I never heard of Cortina, never heard of Cortana for that matter.

How to make Cortana search with Google instead of Bing in Windows 10
https://www.pcworld.com/article/2986172/windows/how-to-make-cortana-search-with-google-instead-of-bing-in-windows-10.html

Windows 10's Cortana provides a great way to quickly launch a web search, but you may not appreciate that Microsoft’s digital assistant defaults to Bing—and there’s no built-in way to get Cortana to switch to Google instead.

The lack of multi-search engine integration makes a certain amount of sense since Cortana's cloud-based brains are powered by Bing. That works out fine for tracking flights, solving math problems, and telling you the weather. But when it comes to simply displaying search results, many people prefer Google to Microsoft’s search engine.

Fortunately, there are a few solutions that can redirect your Cortana web searches from Bing to Google.
Allegedly Duckduckgo protects some of your search records, and Firefox has a privacy mode.

To answer your question, if everyone just provided a link to where an image was borrowed from it would save many others who curiosity was sparked from ever having to do a reverse Google image search (clicking the camera icon) or a Tineye search.

If you like random images and look up words in order to get a definition or correct spelling, do an image search on that word. It's usually fun to see what else pops up in relation.

I use tineye for image search - which is a right click away.

I search images all the time, especially ads, looking for fraud. No cortina option on my pc, using chrome.

Unfortunately the scammers are getting better.

If you want to kill time, strart with a favorite band, comedian, or tv show on youtube, then follow the recommendations....

I like to do it with Johnny Carson when I'm thinking about my father. Damn he was funny in the 70's/80's, much better than talk shows today.

Friends of mine got stuck and had to spend the night on their dirt bikes in the Mountains here locally....Weren't sure where they were they called me to get us from Search and Rescue going.

I had them email me a photo with their Iphone.......I "right clicked", got coordinates and a team got to them in the middle of the night.....Lucky for them to be high enough to ping a cell tower......Handy....

Glad your surgery went well.
About the rest - I have no idea what you're talking about.

Using Chrome, I use the right click to search for the image all the time. Brings up all kinds of interesting things.

I highlite and right click search people and things as well. I spend hours going from one thing to the next.

I need a life...
