A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I'm old. I was an adult when the internet first started. And this is the coolest thing I've ever seen online. Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome! I was an older teenager when the worldwide web started taking off in '94 — is that what you mean? A lot of people associate the Internet and the WWW, but IIRC the first email was sent in the 1960s. I'm getting old. Sometimes I feel old, sometimes I feel young. As a gamer, I try to stay current with tech, but while I like some modern games, I'm having so much fun catching up on 360/PS3 and 3ds era gaming. Like my wife got Animal Crossing for the Switch, but I'm enjoying the 3ds version more. It's a bit older, a bit uglier, my girl has hair like Claire/Molly Ringwald in Breakfast Club, but it's okay, I'll unlock the hair salon eventually.
This is triggering habbo hotel nostalgia for me
right? had the same thought immediately. the whole page is art.
I didn't recognise the name but when I clicked I recognised it instantly, I'm astounded but happy this is still around
This wins the internet for today.

I’m not saying it’s the coolest, but I made a thing to scratch an itch that others may enjoy. I modeled it after something I found a few decades back that I never found again.
Forgot to mention it is available as a tui too. cargo install rhuidean-studio
I have absolutely no idea what this is or what it's supposed to do but it's incredibly fun to poke at
Kinda reminds me of strudel repl
It’s like a completely different way to create music (even though, idk if OP intended it to be for that)
yo, i know nothing about music but this is cool as fuck

It's been around for half a century and nobody knows about it. It's like a world wonder, a modern Library of Alexandria.
Not sure how known these are, but it's similar.

IIRC, they'll add new books every year, as older books slowly become Public Domain, so classics like a bunch of Tarzan books (though not all of them, yet) have become available.
Also, for those that don't get the name: Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press that was much better than existing presses (and pretty new to Europe).
Project Gutenberg predates the internet. I still remember how their goal was to give away one trillion ebooks.
Project Gutenberg is still around, so I won't say this is an example of the internet getting worse. But I loathe how it's come to focus on damnable social media like there's nothing else of worth out there. Social media, among other things, filled the air with noise that starved many worthwhile projects of attention.

To figure out what type of adhesive/glue you need to attach x material to y material

It's the weirdest shit I've ever seen. Before I get into it, I want to point out that I've been using this site for years, since before LLMs were a thing, so this is definitely not generated by AI.
It's just like, generic outline drawings of things. Objects, people, places, everything.
So sometimes I like to draw, and I need a model to work from for the pose and the proportions, and this site has a ton of them. Child kicking a ball? Yes. Adult man sitting on a bench? Several options to choose from. Woman carrying a box? Three different poses.
Pointing, pushing, protesting, thinking, vacuuming, raising one's hand to summon a waiter in a restaurant, it's all there.
I'm sure there's some kind of industrial use for it, like for diagrams or blueprints or something, but then we get to the descriptions. Like on the page for people carrying boxes, it says:
People lift boxes either in their personal lives or at work. People lift boxes to move residences. Mailmen or delivery truck drivers lift boxes everyday as part of their job. Some jobs may require their applicants to be able to lift a certain weight of box. When lifting boxes, it is important to lift with your knees instead of your back to prevent back injury.
Then there's always three questions, which they provide answers to. For carrying, those questions are:
What is a carry on bag?
What is carrying capacity?
How much can a horse carry?
Why? Whom is that for?
Under the pictures of elderly people it asks things like "What are the best exercises for maintaining mobility in seniors?" and "How can seniors adapt their homes for safety and accessibility?"
Is this for dolphins? Did a dolphin learn to read English, and they want to understand human society?
I'm struggling to find the weirdest examples, because honestly it's the breadth as well as the depth. Someone clearly put a ton of work into this, and I love it, but I don't understand it.
Alright. I figured it out. This is for aliens trying to understand us.

It's still the same same as it was almost 30 years ago and is an example of both how websites used to look and also shows how much more functional things used to be when implemented well, inspite of modern aesthetic evolutions

I've been using it as my homepage. It allows you to search Google and other engines without AI summaries, it gives you your IP address and just enough weather info without being obtuse, it loads quickly, and has a timer, stopwatch, scratchpad and conversion table for imperial to metric ect.
