wopwops

I'm slipping further and further away from what "normal" people consider acceptable.

Please give me the option to not use the, "Innovations."

My favorite is hallucinated slop with sources that 404.

"...it feels so fake and so capitalist."

Is there some genuine, socialist Internet somewhere?

Not all women. I'm married and have four children.

I said "F-this" 20 years ago, moved to the middle of nowhere, paid cash for my property and live on next to nothing. Best decision ever.

Once I moved to the middle of nowhere and limited my contact with people---besides my wife and children---I became very happy.

Why do the images look like someone took pictures of dotmatrix printer output?

Update: for whatever it's worth, I just asked the Magic 8 Ball (Perplexity):

Low-tech Magazine uses the option to display images as dithered primarily to reduce the energy consumption and data load of their website. Dithering is an old image compression technique that reduces the number of colors in images to just a few shades of gray (black and white with four levels of gray), which dramatically decreases the file size. The black-and-white dithered images are then recolored via the browser’s CSS, which adds no extra data load.

This approach makes images roughly ten times less resource-intensive than full-color high-resolution images, which supports the magazine’s goal of having a low-energy, solar-powered website. However, some images, such as graphs or those with crucial color information, may become less clear under dithering, so the website offers the option to turn off dithering for individual images to reveal the original, heavier images. This balances energy efficiency with the need for clarity when visual information depends on color or detail.

Thus, the dithered image feature is both an energy-saving measure and a distinct stylistic choice that aligns with the philosophy of reducing the environmental impact of web usage while maintaining visual storytelling appeal.

Does this mean that we will be able to get the Quicklaunch toolbar back?

"Too long video" lol

Why does the logo feature an eyeball?
