I just bought myself a pair of parachute pants! They’re not nearly as loud as the wind breaker suits of the 90s and early 00s, but I love them.

The demo was fun. Apparently I’m a mediocre heartless monster.
I remember us having an Atari computer along with some Compac computer running DOS in the late 80s. The computers I grew up with were models that we got for free from my dad’s workplace whenever they upgraded. We ran Win 3.1 until about '98. Win 95 was prevalent in the house until the mid '00s. Due to my dad’s job, we always had a computer of some sort in the house.
The computers in my elementary school’s computer lab were Apple 2es - in the 90s.
I didn’t get a cellphone until around 2004/2005, and then it was a hand-me-down from my older sister. The Nokia 5110 - the brick, complete with extendable antenna.
A single mouse will feed on a bird several times its size. Conservationists snapped a photo of one perched on the bloodied head of a wandering albatross chick. […] He said the birds have not developed the defense mechanisms to protect themselves against these unfamiliar predators and often sit there while mice nibble away at them. Sometimes multiple mice swarm over a bird.
Holy crap. Renewed fear of mice activated. I hope their plan goes as well as they’re planning. There’s no good solution here.
Blinkies - those small gifs that blinked to give the impression of glitter.
iframes - precursor to divs, but definitely added that “only works in IE” feel.
More contrast between font color and background image - it’s too easy to read.
12pt Times New Roman font - gotta squint to read and default font for everything
Flashy gif banner at your header and footer - bonus points if they’re the same image
All urls default to underlined blue and purple.
Mouse cursor with trails. The more sparkles, the better.
Clip art. Clip art everywhere.
Not sure if this would count, but here it is:
Boil water amount on the box in the electric kettle. Drain canned chicken. (Some brands need to be rinsed because of the amount of salt in the broth they’re canned in.) Add stuffing, butter (amount according to the box) and chicken into a bowl. Stir to incorporate. Add boiling water, stir again, and cover for 5 minutes. Fluff and serve.
I suggest using the low sodium version as there will be a lot of salt between the box of stuffing and canned chicken. Can also use leftover cooked chicken.
I know someone who had that. I remember their parents explaining how “red eye”, in photographs, meant a healthy eye and how their child had had a “green eye” which lead to the path of the initial diagnosis.
They are a healthy young adult now with a glass eye.
Yes they do. Usually one big ad on the side of the screen. And they may if you use certain screen savers. I think the city scapes one puts ads in it. Note: all the ads I mention are static images without sound.
The Professor would be better cast as the guy Ruby Rod says is stone cold deaf, and who eventually rolls a billiards ball back to Bruce Willis’s character (I’m drawing a blank on names this morning).
If anything, Bender would make a better Ruby Rod and could cast Roberto as the flaming bad guy entity.
Hermes would make a good Zorg.
Alrighty, I’m thinking way too much into this. 😅 I’m stopping now.
There are supposed to be two thumbnails of videos that show up. A golden Win and a red Fail. You are then supposed to click on your results (a draw equals a fail iirc) and it will take you to the next video.
Seeing a rainbow in the sky. I know it’s just sunlight refracting through the water droplets but it is so gorgeous. I still get like the dude from the double rainbow video years ago because I still feel that way.
Ha! This bitch is a Sagittarius! 🤣 lol
… Which I’ve read into in my younger years and often went “that’s not me, that’s not me at all.”
Thanks for sharing! Downloading the demo now thanks to your post. Been so excited since I saw the announcement months ago. :):):)
Idk if it’s my app or what, but the link to the original post takes me to yiff… I’m using Connect on Android.
:) I love it. Makes total sense to this American lol
Clorox owns Hidden Valley Ranch brand of salad dressings. They also own Burt’s Bees cosmetics. I’m unsure which cat litter they own. They also own Kingsford charcoal.
Source: I’m a retail merchandiser who has done several jobs for Clorox the past several months and I’ve had to run around the store from one department to another for various audits.
Hidden Valley Ranch is owned by Clorox.
I am also part of the Top 6hr gang. There are dozens of us! :)
If you like DOS games, ScummVM has an android app for their emulator and then you could hit up abandonware sites for nostalgia games. Works for some Win95 games as well. Played Woodruff on my phone a few years ago, an ISO file inside ScummVM, and besides the aspect ratio being a bit off it was playable.
I tend to go back to mindless puzzle games on my phone and set weird challenges for myself. I like HexaMania and InBlock by AleksDev. I paid for no ads, iirc 99¢USD, and haven’t regretted it. No freeminum b.s. in those two. (There is a HexaMania 2 by the same person, but even with paying for no ads it has a pay to keep playing mechanic that keeps me away from it.)
Flow Free is a great connect the dot series of games that you can get the full game through Google Play Pass. Hundreds of levels per game. And with it being on GPP, you get unlimited hints if you get stuck.
If you want an exploration sandbox game, there are always Minecraft and Terraria to enjoy.
Einstein Riddle by Rottz Games, also in GPP, is a good logic puzzle game.
Memphis design for the colors and patterns, Y2K for the colorful translucent electronics, and Frutiger Aero for the GUIs.
