Really hoping you enjoy it here! As a fellow bobby haver I enjoy your website, it reminds me of how creative you can be with html. I would love to learn about your interests, as well as that fascinating cube you post from. I haven't seen a cube that cozy in ages

⛽︎ ∙ Technology & Archiving / Re: What kind of phone do you have?
« on: December 07, 2022, 03:40:43 am »
sadly, the feature phone market is currently in a pretty depressing state. because phone manufacturers have shifted all of their development focus and efforts to smartphones, feature phones have regressed quite a bit since their 2000s-2010s heyday. however, there are still some decent devices out there - you can use the dumbphone finder website to search for phones by carrier compatibility, features, OS, etc.

my personal recommendation for a good modern flip phone is the sonim XP3+. (i haven't used this phone in particular, but do i have the XP5s, which runs basically the same OS.) it's not the prettiest phone out there (and it's quite chonky), but it's got standard MP3 player and FM radio functionality, plus a pretty good 8MP camera. (i think it might actually have the best camera out of any modern feature phone to date. it's only fixed-focus, but almost every other feature phone currently being made is equipped with a pretty bad sub-2MP camera.)

if you still want to have a smartphone but want something a bit different, i'd recommend checking out the phones that unihertz makes. (note that their phones don't work on at&t!) my daily driver phone is their titan pocket, a modern android smartphone built in the form factor of a classic blackberry, complete with a physical keyboard. i've talked about it before in this thread here and here. i've also heard good things about the jelly 2, which has a more standard smartphone form factor except for the fact that it's extremely tiny.
I've been looking into some of these options and I honestly think I might end up going for one of these! As well as what gans said, I've been looking around my local used phone stores, marketplace, that sort of stuff. I've found a couple possibilities. Hopefully I can decide soon that way I can use it as an excuse to buy myself a christmas gift

« on: December 05, 2022, 06:14:03 pm »
The original super monkey ball, persona 3 portable (I have never actually played through any of the other games or have any idea about the story but it was my childhood) and last but not least, a proper remake of Auto Modellista

For me I agree with the sentiment of inspiration coming when it wants but, I have spent many nights surfing through old defunct websites for inspiration, seeing the strange and varied works of the web really inspires me!

I currently use a galaxy s20. It serves me well for what I need (An over-complicated MP3 player, Cheap camera and a place to message family.) I rarely use it for anything else, mainly because I way prefer PC's. I've actually been thinking because of this thread and was wondering if anyone would have any recommendations for a phone that is simpler? I love myself a good flip phone but either because of nostalgia pricing or my ignorance I can't seem to find a flip phone that is both reasonably priced and usable as a camera/music device.

So I'm definetly going to be taking these tips. I have been using a lot of eurobeat funnily enough and it makes me write ridicullously fast, good for getting out drafts. As for the pomodoro technique, I have never tried it. I think I'm gonna give it a shot tonight with my writing. Thank you all and I'll update when I try out some of this!

☞ ∙ Life on the Web / Re: Interacting with other Users!
« on: December 05, 2022, 05:52:23 pm »
I've actually been wanting to come up with a way for users to communicate issues, compliments comments or concerns over my website. Having a guestbook is nice but I want something that gives me a more immediate message. I also feel like leaving messages of encouragement is very much in the spirit of the old web. I'm gonna try leaving more comments on websites!

I should add that I was thinking of an influencer as someone who "broadcasts and effects peoples opinions on something"; but I can also understand how its often heavily linked to "following trends and trying to gain numbers as a primary goal".

If those are the two sides of the coin in this discussion; I have an extra question! Can we/Should we reclaim the idea of an influencer? Can we turn it into something positive? Can you influence by just being yourself? Can you have a voice without pushing negative trends and hogging attention?

I like to believe that if your true to yourself, you do the things you love, and share those things honestly and creatively; that you can and will effect change in people who come in contact with you. Maybe Im very naive though!
Considering this, I would agree that we are "influencers" to an extent. We should definitely reclaim the word in that meaning. Regardless of what you post and how many people see it, webmasters almost certainly influence people to some extent. Even today I visited someones site and their art inspired me to try to get back into art. Having a voice and broadcasting it was the original point of the web and we as web revivalists (are we called that? we are now I guess lol) are dedicated to bringing back the days of using the web to express yourself. No matter who you are or what you are here to broadcast, the internet is an opportunity to give yourself a voice and influence people to some extent.

Personally I use https://codebeautify.org/htmlviewer a lot to make my code more organized. Other than that I'd say anything from the html-css section of yesterlinks!
