Does it need to?
Yes. What if someone MITMs me and chops off the poor horse’s leg?
A variety of neat activities and educational pages.
That space elevator was really engaging and interesting!!
My goodness. I love this website’s activities and educational pages. I really should be studying right now, but here are a few of my favorites so far.

Plenty more to check out!
I feel like 35 is too young to have completed 51/66 tasks in the life checklist. I’m too young for a midlife crisis (fingers crossed, anyways)!
Yeah, I feel like it’s heavily skewed towards the beginning of life, but tbf I feel like the cool things you do later in life are harder to quantify? Could add things like:
- I’m trying to think of how to quantify a “Have 0 debt” option but like, post mortgage or something.
- Establish a friend group
- Hang out with at least one member of that friend group for 5 / 10 / 15 years
- Go to an interesting location as part of your job (conventions count)
- See a historical human-made artifact in person
- See a legitimate dinosaur bone in person (not cast)
- Visit your country’s capital
- Create a piece of art and enter it into something that has it be viewed by people outside your family / friends
Gayhomophobe.com it counts the time since the last openly homophobic figure was caught in a gay sex scandal
Unfortunately the list seems to have become unmaintained.
zoo.replicate.dev - a bunch of free ai image generation models
snowfl - a search engine for torrents
There is this really cool place called Lemmy, I’m sure many people here have heard of it but not anyone I ask in other places. It’s like Reddit, it’s a forum-esque place where people can exchange their thoughts. The people are a little biased on the extreme Marxist side of things, but overall it’s pretty nice.
We don’t need this reddit-level comment here.
The people are a little biased on the extreme Marxist side of things
(and we like it that way, tyvm)
It’s one thing to have a dominant demographic, but any place could do without a black and white mindset when they go about it.
Lol.
…can you not make me feel like a fossil
I’m pretty sure everyone on Lemmy is exactly 37 years old, and grew up with ytmnd
Is this like the digital equivalent of a million monkeys with a million typewriters?
And also “every finite number is contained within PI” but with words.
That statement may be false, a simple explanation is that if you make a number out of π by removing all 9s it will keep the properties of π being infinite and non-repeating but never contain 9.
Okay, cool! I had some fun looking for words in the pages. But if I understand it correctly, what we’ll end up with individual words surrounded with gibberish on the pages. You’re never going to get a page full of real words, right?
I haven’t looked at it yet but if u understand correctly you just have to search for a page where surrounding gibberish is also words. Probability plummets to zero fast, I’d guess
Every possible page is generated somewhere. I think there’s a checkbox on the search page that fills the rest of the query with spaces.
Yeah sorta. It’s apparently an algorithm that can produce every possible page of text, given a number. So it contains a staggering amount of gibberish, plus every page of every book that’s ever been written, and many wildly incorrect, many vaguely correct and one exactly accurate description of the circumstances of your death.
I thought humanity was the “million monkeys with a million typewriters”
epguides.com - episode lists for a lot of shows - dramas, sitcoms, science fiction, etc.
australiantelevision.net - episode lists and guides for a bunch of Australian TV series as well.
Every music genre you can think of, and then some. I finally found out what the stuff I like is called.
Very niche, but if you ever need to decode a simple oldschool encrypted/encoded text (caesar cipher, reverse alphabet, substitution cipher, morse code etc) for an AR game or whatever, Canonn Decryptor is amazing, being able to decode most cryptograms virtually automatically.
All hail!
fyi, if u meant for this image to be embedded, u can use a bang before the brackets, like
http://wiby.me/ is a cool site. It’s a search engine that only has web 1.0 and web 1.0-styled websites.
If you like to play chess, check out www.lichess.org
It’s free and open source, and it’s very easy to find a game there, no matter what level you play.
It doesn’t display annoying ads.
It always makes me sad that chess.com was the site that blew up. I always had to convince my friends to use lichess when I played back in school.
Live testing color palettes and fonts for web design. Made by a designer who’s really great, she runs a YouTube channel and made the site for free use by anyone.
How accurate are the palettes? Would we need to calibrate our monitors or does the site do that for you?
I doubt the site is able to calibrate to individual monitors, as there’s almost no way for it to know what you have.
Gotcha. So not too accurate for uncalibrated monitors then. Thanks!
