If, like me, you love 1990s Web sites, back when the internet wasn't enshittified by Big Tech yet, have a look at Wiby, a Web 1.0 search engine.
Click on "Surprise me…" for random discoveries, often personal Web pages about obscure niche subjects, but sometimes you find a hidden gem…

🎨✨ Behold, the Amiga Graphics Archive: a shrine to the pixelated wonders of yesteryears, when computers were beige boxes and graphics capabilities were measured by how many colors you could cram into 16 bits. Dive deep into this retro rabbit hole of ancient screen modes and obsolete tech jargon, because apparently, #nostalgia never dies; it just gets archived. 📚💾

A formless entity that runs an analog video club and loves doing video art. Truly bizarrely passionate for complex systems engineering. Severe chronic pain, so please forgive me sometimes struggling with alt text. 30-ish. Often-times alt text for images I post will contain more in-depth technical explanations.

Wrote a nice big blog post about my VHS simulator that explains all the physics models inside of it (and finally gives a basic reference to what all the parameters mean).
