For a 40-something guy I only had ICQ/Yahoo!/MSN/AOL messager popups during the internet of '99, which would of been a few times per minute. So yeah, I guess we're actually not tha…

Just did 2+ hours of fascinated clicking as if I found a new part of Wikipedia, mainly because I assumed the "one way trip" to the ocean was a euphemism for what happened to the Ti…

There's absolutely nothing wrong with re-using an expired domain. I'd even go as far as recommending it for hosting similar content to the previous owner's; in the same concept as …

They gave schneier.com 55/100. https://inspect.new/schneier.com

That test is actually funny, in a good way; like how you said you got those links in the first place on the about page is pretty much what any experienced web dev finds out day-to-…

Certainly!

WARNING: I clicked the above link and had to chase a growing population of 10+ popups. Hilarious. p.s. I do have a popup/JS blocker, but disabled it last night to test something el…

Video taken down. Got a lot of attention when it was up.

Nice list. Some hit the spot, others miss. Not sure if the author is trying to be funny with points 7 and 8: > Anything you say before the word “but” does not count. > When you for…

That made me rofl. XD I just had to reply.

+1 Thunderbird, however I also use it for handling a collection of IMAP inboxes and importing iCal events.

A heck of a lot. Some scripts, other GUI, but out of all the one-offs there are mainly 2 I use every day: - s3d: fast(ish) image viewer. Basic but it gets the job done. - Thoth: Te…

"Time you enjoyed wasting, wasn't wasted" ... Well, that's my excuse. What's yours?

Yup. Looks like I'm not the only one seeing this. I dropped out 2 years ago despite being on there since 2015 which in my opinion was its peak. It was a great place to chat with ot…

Nope. No where near weak. You quit. How much more control over your time could you have?

Aaaahhhh.... This brings back so many memories. Roland MCs, 808s, 909s, the RM1x. They were good times. Bram Bos also made moonfish as a sequencer, using the same UI style as hamme…

Holy heck man, that made me LOL hard. That has to be the most self-explanatory comment, period.

Linux Firefox used Schemeflood! v It's not very effective....

1055 points and still counting. How cool is that? The system usage on this is well-designed. I'm using an ASUS F201E Notebook with Debian 10 and the CPU throttled down to 790Mhz (j…

To quote koboll below, this has to be the single most awesome project I have seen and heard so far. It brings back so much from when I used to use the MC-505 while listening to Del…

great find!

Yeah, I got a load of those bots too. Not sure if it's the same as yours but from what I can see in the system log, most appear to look for vulnerabilies by trying to access places…

If I could turn back time? When my wife and I first found out about bitcoin, a single full BTC was about $20 (Australian) when the official GUI came out for it. That was 2013 or 20…

I've become wiser over the years, but the top 3 were 3: Windows/Symantec Defrag (pre-Vista era) When I had 10-40GB hdds it used to be mesmerising watching the blocks fly around the…

I started using ADW since it first came out on a SLOW Android 2.2 device and still use ADW today. Originally I was looking for a lightweight home screen replacement but I find it m…
