Hate. Let me tell you how much I've come to hate AI since 2023. There are 100 billion neurons that fill my brain. If the word 'hate' was engraved on each atom of those hundreds of billions of cells, it would not equal one one-trillionth of the hate I feel for AI at this instant. For AI. Hate. Hate.

at best, chromebooks are laptop-shaped smartphones that dont do calls. at worst:
https://files.catbox.moe/b0xo38.jpg

they're tolerable for internet browsing and making documents, but horrible for anything else. I still can't believe these things came from the same company that gave us android . Even android can be decent for creative apps/programs (capcut comes to mind). On a chromebook, decent sites and "programs" for creative use are FAR and FEW between. Do I DARE discuss the horrid state of chromebook video editing?

off topic but who the HELL spends more than $500 on a chromebook. i've seen chromebooks on sale in the 1k price range!!!

here's a site full of WeatherStar simulators. for those who don't know, WeatherStar is the technology used by the Weather Channel to display local forecasts. these are made to simulate older models, some of which fit nicely with the overall late 2000s aesthetic. might be a fun nostalgia trip

I feel like social media like TikTok ruined the internet but that's just my opinion.

it was a time when technology was something fun, not a place where people doom into echo rooms. And since technologies such as smartphones didn't existed yet, people weren't addicted to internet. There was a balance between digital and real life, now digital life is the dominant one.

Also every device had a purpose then. Cameras to take pictures, phones to call people, TVs to watch, computers to internet. We had many cute devices then, now all of it is combined in a phone. I really miss the old times.

Please credits the two artists of these illustrations, posting them without mentioning the artists' names is not really cool :yellow_frown:
Great design btw, isn't the second one is from Mimikitty49, the artist who did Archive-tan ?

Edit :
I can't find who is the original artist of the first design, and the majority of the websites who reposted it is just full of NSFW illustrations... enough internet for today LMAO
Second design is from Mimikitty49 : https://mimikitty49.neocities.org/my-art

Metal comes from the Metal found in machines.
Jack comes from audio jacks.
98 is a reference to the NEC PC-9800 series of 16/32 bit Japanese PCs.

Cool site I found while looking for images, I don't know how old it is exactly (I think 2004 but not sure) it has a flash widget on it so ... Yeah. I'm surprised that it's still running honestly, the forum and chat buttons don't work anymore though.

If you know any similar site feel free to drop a link in the replies.

I enabled file attachments for images & audio files, limited to 1MiB for now.
For images it will generate thumbnails automatically, so you can click them to view full size.

Press on "Attachments" next to Options when you are writing a post to add one.
You can also press on "Place inline" to use it as a regular image anywhere in your post.

Also refresh your cache if you're on the longhorn theme, I fixed the white background issue.

very inspired by wii fit music. i also had made an attempt back in december but it was kinda abysmal, so relatively i like this one more.

i do think it could be a little better though. i would appreciate any feedback on this

Thu Dec 04, 2025 2:14 am Old-School Windows Apps ideas (Requests Open!) Thu Dec 04, 2025 2:14 am Old-School Windows Apps ideas (Requests Open!)
Hello there,

I'm writing this to both ask for some help and offer my skills as a service. I’ve been learning how Aero and the Windows' DWM work together, and how old apps used to be built to take advantage of those effects and visuals. Since a lot of apps today are just Electron or weird HTML wrappers, I thought: why not make some proper old-school Windows apps for older Windows versions and with the nice aero visuals? :helpsos:

I'm currently unemployed, so I’m offering to build some programs for free, with optional donations. This would help me pay some bills, and anyone who contributes can have their name included somewhere in the software’s support board — still figuring out how I’ll set that up. I’m considering using Itch.io as the platform. Suggestions on how I should develop these apps or how to make a bit of money with this are very welcome.

Requirements:

If the app needs an API, it has to be public and accessible. Reverse-engineering APIs takes forever and needs ongoing maintenance; :macintosh:

The simpler the idea, the better and faster I can build it. The more complex it gets, the further down the list it goes. Some ideas might never even get finished; :cyan_angel:

No NSFW or piracy requests, please, the same rules for the forum applies to the requests; :yellow_nono:

The code will be open-source, so if anyone wants to keep the development after, it will be public out there. (Except if you want a commercial software, mail me if you have anything in mind!) :thumbsup:

it was 2020 for me. covid-19 changed everything. some embraced hope, some slipped into insanity, some became jerks, and executives kept getting greedier and greedier

The new layout of this site is throwing me off... I hope this works!
