It takes you to a random web 1.0 site that has somehow survived all this time.
And it led me to this site, a public voice-mail:
This is amazing, it took me to a US battleship website and then enrons website
A good chuck of these sites are autism special interest sites.
Hey, would you like every single schematic of Chernobyl with a through explanation? Sites like that are floating around in there.
And then a website about proving the existence of sea monsters…
This page on how mechanical watches work with really snappy interactive 3d bits that let you “feel” how the parts do their thing. And the dozens of other articles on other topics also on the site
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.
Ayyy it is so awesome to see how much Australians are contributing to the cyber space, I have lost count of the amount of times I have seen Aussies being mentioned in just this past week
According to the people in my office nobody knows about archive.org and I think it’s pretty cool.
Does Lemmy count?
I mean not in this thread, but generally yeah

Its an LLM trained exclusively on the Epstein files, 9/11 archive and publicly available FBI documents. Every answer comes with like 10-20 Epstein filer links to prove or disprove a theory. Their free option is shit, but for like 20$ a month, it helps me make sense of all the videos out there.

Sadly it is no longer being updated.
If you’re a Tool fan, there is 20+ years of blog about them, he recently “stopped updating” it, but it’s a treasure trove of history on the band: https://toolshed.down.net/
Seems like they don’t update often? It’s still showing the Artemis II crew.
I honestly don’t know. I always used the website as a start site. But not for a year or two. And whenever i looked at it it was like one or two. Which kinda made it even funnier
I wouldn’t say unknown, as it’s a staple of the shortwave and ham radio communities, but websdr.org is a place where people stream software defined radio feeds from around the world. It’s not like a traditional internet radio station where you have an audio stream of a single station. You pick an SDR server hosted by a volunteer, and then you’re given a frequency input, modulation selection, and waterfall display as though you were listening to an actual shortwave radio.
I know it’s well-known because Eastern European stations were swamped during Russia’s initial invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

Ive loved radio garden for a few years now. Its so fun to just click a random city in the world and just listen to whatever they are doing. I remember randomly listening to a music station from some island above scotland for an entire day and came out of it with like 10 bands i had never heard of before that are now a part of my rotation.
Don’t know if it’s still around and can’t remember the domain, but there was a site called World Radio Network that rebroadcast shortwave radio from around the world. Also great for language learning. The Polish Radio Service and Vatican Radio even had programs in Esperanto. A Finnish station had a Latin program, and of course so did Vatican Radio.

It’s still usable, and the Spotify playlists are still there. If you like exploring music styles, this is for you. Warning, time will disappear.
