I miss the old internet, especially the parts I never got to experience. So instead of doomscrolling and letting the algorithm decide what I see, I’ve been spending some of my free time exploring what’s left of it.

It sucks seeing so many forums and imageboards fade away. Some are still accessible through Web Archive, like 420chan and Dreamchan, but a lot, like Late Nights, are just gone forever. Still, I’ve noticed small communities popping up again, which is awesome. We really need an internet built for people, not just for AI and inflated egos.

I miss how simple and full of substance things used to be, so I want to bring some of that back, and maybe even create something new. Even the new communities are lacking of something, it's like they are trying to emulate the aesthetics only (the ones I found until now)

so, anon, got any cool nostalgic websites to share? 

Saw this one yesterday, pretty interesting. The person that made this is really creative.

http://toastytech.com/ is one of the first sites I remember visiting that are still up. I'm not sure how I found it, maybe I was googling around for different computer-related topics since I was heavily into that, but I loved the GUI gallery and IE is Evil. Also Mars War is a pretty nice Doom wad. It even got me into Firefox before the other nerds at school did.

It still sees an update roughly once or twice a year, but it's usually just a small addition to IE is Evil's rant page. Part of me hoped that he'd keep the GUI gallery up to date with different X11 WMs and Wayland compositors, but I guess he's busy with life these days. Or just tired of maintaining a decades-old personal site, in an era when personal sites barely exist outside of teenagers making stereotypical gif-laden "old web" pages on Neocities.

Pic used to be what the rant page looked like back in the early-mid 00s. He's since toned it down, but he's kept the yellow text and Doom texture background to make it hard to read on purpose.

You're very welcome, Mate! What kind of turned things around for me personally was just this realization:
Be the future you want to see!

Everything else pretty much flowed out of that one personal determination. Good luck with your search.

He's only got Elon Musk -- the best buddy of poojeets everywhere -- to blame. We were all mostly accommodating to the more lucid ones & clear minded ones until Literally Elonler made it clear that he shat on all Whites in Burgerland in favor of his "top .01%" instead. Once he did that, the animosity & acrimony toward all poojeets, and the H1B's in particular was pretty much set in stone henceforth and growing to large scale nearly overnight with that diatribe of his.

It's also been humorous to note the general quality improvements of the broader Internets (and even the normalcattle glownigger honeypots such as the above case) once most of them "stomped off" in a state of cope & seethe.  :D

Remember that nearly career-ending twatter post by... that poojet politician with that giant cowmonkey name... about how white burgerstani are a bunch of dumb lazy jock sportsball-worshipers and anti-nerd haters (with choice lines like "A culture that praises high school football stars but makes fun of teenage chess masters... is not a society that produces competent programmers. A culture which shits on Steve Urkel... is not a society that produces competent engineers.") who used that as his point to claim Americans need to be replaced by poojeets so they can compete with China or China will win the AI race.

That isn't how arthritis works, at least not really. It sounds to me like you have an issue closer to carpel tunnel. The key with nerve pain is to determine the source. Try massaging or palpitating your arm to find which nerves are pinched (I for example, carry stress in my tricep, which has shooting nerve pain when squeezed). You can then try to reduce the workload on that area, supplemented with some NSAIDs to get any tense muscle to stop squeezing the nerve. Obviously stop sleeping at your desk as well, and if it doesn't go away after a week or so, go see a Medicus.
Stop drinking Monster too. That shit is literal poison. You're better off taking (I'm not technically recommending this) caffeine pills if you absolutely have to.
