links
here are a litany of links to cool alternate dimensions on the world wide web:
| sites | descriptions |
|---|---|
| mepearl | magical dead squirrel possum lady that asks for money and does psychic readings |
| zombietime | "San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom lurked silently at the back of the crowd, looking like a Mafia hit man, as usual" |
| bumpworthy | dead(?) site that archives old adult swim bumps |
| 973-eht-namuh-973 | one man's web-famous terrifying spiraling html well |
| worlds | 90s virtual chatroom program which is apparently a surrealist horror roller coaster that i have yet to personally try out |
| fa onion archive | slow, sometimes broken furaffinity archive which has been an absolute godsend for me more than once. to choose your poison, add your favorite artist's name after "/fa/" |
| sentimental corporation | based and redpilled man's spooky nsfw surrealist internet art project, i am not responsible for the skinwalkers that'll most likely eat you alive after clicking this |
| all dead mormons are now gay | all dead mormons are now gay. |
| oocities | old, and borked geocities archive |
| one terabyte of kilobyte age | bloggier equivalent of the famous geocities bot tumblr thing |
| opossum society of the united states | i wanted something nice, educational and cute to post :< |
| jenniverse | personal site of one of the internet's oldest exceptional individuals, jennifer diane reitz, who made boppin'! for dos! |
| transsexual | also by jennifer diane reitz, because it feels wrong not linking both sites. probably a more interesting historical curiosity if you're actually trans, unlike me. |
| gay america | i just found this while skimming through the above side and it's too good not to include. the "teen" section feels kinda disturbing but i wish i could get a rainbow award. |
| winworld | has a ton of old nifty software, even if you've probably only visited it to download windows 98 to throw in a vm because virtual machines are fun. |
| vimm | it's pretty easy to just torrent an entire pack of roms if you want them but vimm is pretty great for downloading things separately. no pal/japanese only stuff but meh. |
| the-eye | public tracker that has a bunch of interesting shit, even though i think 99% of the userbase just downloads roms. |
| osamu sato archive | website dedicated to archiving the art of this man |
here are some bodacious links to individual software application thingies (windows only for now because i'm fucking stupid):
| programs | descriptions |
|---|---|
| floodgap | overbite | firefox extension that lets you browse gopher stuff in-browser again. by this point i'm pretty sure cameron kaiser is the only dude that still gives a shit about gopher. |
| dupeguru | program that finds those devious duplicate porn pics you have lying around on your c:\ drive. only just learned about it and started using it but it seems pretty damn good |
| text 2 folders | takes text files or some shit and lets you make a ton of folders with them. also something i've only used like once (for my silent hill wad) but also seems pretty damn good |
| bulk rename utility | has an incredibly shitty ui but it seems to work fine. has an incredibly misleading option to buy a commercial license but i just learned it's free for personal use so whatever |
| oldnewexplorer | makes the win8/win10 explorer suck marginally less girthy throbbing cocks. |
| bbzero | blackbox for windows - the only alternate windows shell which DOESN'T suck, but it's super old and buggy and breaks uwp apps in win10. even this new version is like 3 years old, but if you can get it looking good it's pretty dandy |
| sharex | windows capture tool which is surprisingly feature rich |
| wiztree | a really fucking fast windirstat alternative. the embedded donation shit is kinda annoying but their company logo looks like a dick so antibody software wins this round. |
| tumblthree | does a wonderful job of archiving tumblr stuff if you need to do that. a little late considering they have shitty robots trying to purge the site of wangs now, but better late than never |
| pcem | full-fledged ibm pc emulator - if you can find the bioses for it, it does a ton of shit. unfortunately even on decent pcs it's fucking slooooooow but i got win95 and rct1 running in it and it made me happy. |
