Sorry, rotor, I forgot what thread I was in  Content! Not strictly web related but certainly hypermedia-adjacent: If Monks Had Macs is a collection of HyperCard stacks that got turned into edutainment CD-ROMs that are now available in-emuation on the Internet Archive. quote:It's a hearty stew of interactive books, games & music. At its center is a journaling program that helps you: It's truly one of those experiments in digital creation that could have only been done in the '90s before anybody knew what the rules of the medium were.

Gonna throw out erowid.org as a Directory-worthy place. Hasn't been aesthetically updated since the 90s, provides a bunch of useful information mixed in with a bunch of opinion and speculation, and is an endless source of schadenfreude.

I wouldn't post these here except it was mentioned in OP that posting your own sites is okay. https://board.divsel.com - basically I forked hexchan-engine, a Russian image board software in Django. I updated all the docker images, the frameworks, the libraries, and then I got to work extending it to have user authentication and a lot of other features to the point that I've added as much as the original developer. It's a relatively quiet place that hasn't been raided or anything yet. People pop on, post to try it out, and usually don't return. I'm okay with it just being what it is: a momentary curiosity of the web. That being said, it is open source, so if you want to poke around and laugh at the source code, I can at least blame some of it on upstream. I do look at the issue tracker btw. https://github.com/divSelector/divchan I also run https://neorings.org , which is a platform for hosting webrings where the target users are mostly people with neocities accounts. divsel fucked around with this message at 11:14 on Mar 30, 2024 |

some good botany sites: * http://www.bonap.org The Biota of North America Program - county-level distribution for plant species in north america, plus lots of other botany data. https://bonap.net/NAPA/Genus/Traditional/County for the list of genera. * https://www.illinoiswildflowers.info Dr. John Hilty's Illinois Wildflowers - distribution map, description, photos, and commentary on plants in illinois. also includes databases discussing plant/insect interactions * https://bplant.org - has a nice explorer for ecoregions. https://bplant.org/regions.php. you can find your local ecoregion or look around in other places. also has detailed articles on a select number of plant species. theflyingexecutive posted:Gonna throw out erowid.org as a Directory-worthy place.

Archduke Frantz Fanon posted:You want an easily searchable database of crowdsourced critter pics??? iNaturalist also has an app, and when you take pictures of animals plants fungi moss etc. and upload them, real actual scientists and experts will identify them for you and/or confirm your identification. You can also look at a map of wherever you are to see what other users have tagged there, which can help a lot with identifying what that little brown bird you're looking at might be.

I only know erowid from Kyle Kingsbury’s “Erowid Recruiter” twitter account markov bot trained with erowid posts and unsolicited recruiter emails. The bird led us straight to our mobile team!

im_sorry posted:I found this place back in 1996. It still rules. Deeper reading of and repeated interaction with single, independent web pages really did improve people’s lives back then, which I think is part of the ethos of this thread. It doesn’t seem like that happens so much anymore (definitely not in the public way it did with blogging only a decade ago. Maybe it does and I’m just old and closed minded. Here’s an example of a genre that should have some representation in the repository:https://ai.stanford.edu/~moises/tutorial/index.htm a semester long slideshow on Bayesian networks. I think these kinds of html textbooks are treasures, especially when they use plainer language. There are good ones covering a lot of courses. e2: you could use the slides to design a y2k state of the art spam filter e: you can see the whole course in plain black-and-white times new Roman if you click around a bit.

https://barfbags.com/, pretty much what the domain name leads you to expect. not gross. "While this website and hobby is an enormous waste of time, I like to think that it's a higher quality waste of time than many other places on the web." https://kellysairsicknessbags.com/ a second collection. also not gross.

If you don't Tumbl on the reg you might not have seen the source for a bunch of the high-res 'Computer' images in the pics thread - sourced mainly from Archive.org but not exclusively: https://lookcaitlin.tumblr.com/archive You can go to the actual blog by removing /archive from the url there, but honestly I find the archive page the easiest to navigate.
