Wow
This takes me back to the glory days of stumbleupon.
I miss SU so much…this is awesome!
Exactly, it’s giving me big nostalgia flashbacks to the pre-reddit days. I was on SU so much for years, used the social communities, and was pretty excited to discover reddit. I can’t believe it’s been 20 years, ouch
I’m obsessed with the one I got https://www.stinkymeat.net/stinkymeat/day1/
A guy dropped raw meat on a plate in his neighbors lawn and documented the decomposition.
A steak, what appears to be maybe 2lbs of ground beef and a half dozen hotdogs for $7.31…
That would easily cost me $30 today!
What a ride!
As I read, I found myself tilting my phone back more and more to get the photos as out-of-focus as possible while still being able to read. By the time the hot dogs vanished, I found myself unable to continue.
I salute this person’s dedication to scientific discovery, but I could smell those photos through the screen. Nope.
After the first few days I realized: I have been to this site before. Easily over a decade or more ago.
I can’t believe someone has paid for that domain name for 23 years… O_O
His email aliases are definitely on point tho.
This was awesome! I got so invested in the story! You landed on a goldmine with this one!
This was… interesting.
I stopped at day 17. Not sure if it goes farther, but that was a rough one.
That’s honestly a work of modern art
I got https://www.geocities.ws/misterralls/index.html and now I want to know how Mike Ralls is doing since the enshitification and whether he continued rock climbing
I found him on LinkedIn. Looks to be happy. No idea if he is still climbing though. Finished his master’s degree however!
Reminds me of the days of StumbleUpon, good times on the internet back then
We were all so innocent (relatively) then
What are the odds that the random website it gave me was my physics study guide in high school? The Hyperphysics website
I got the history of AM radio and then something called Hot Dog Linux lmfao
I got the albino squirrel preservation society. It doesn’t get more random than that. I checked out a couple more and it makes miss the old web of the 90s.
I … can’t stop clicking
I’ve realized this true randomness is something that current Web does not offer, all the algorithms are so optimized to keep bringing “what interests you” or “what interests lot of people”.
The randomness is so addictive, and perhaps even a bit dangerous.
I miss web 1.0
This person is still updating their Mug root beer site. Just updated on 2022.
Not to be confused with Mug, a root beer brand lol https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mug_Root_Beer
I got https://www.w3.org/History.html which is very apt
