I enjoy your favicon image choice. Tangent: The map tile sprites from the GB/GBC Pokemon games make awesome webpage background images.
I saw your about page, and liked it a lot. Tell me about Queens some time if you use Federation XMPP: xmpp:rvk@404.city
I really dig your aesthetics. Testing designs in two-bit colour like the OG GameBoy has is often something I enjoy trying.

The WWW turned 30 Earth-years old today. I only wish I had more to say to mark the occasion. I've been digging through early web browsers and old webpages out of my own intellectual curiosity. We take too much for granted sometimes as developers of these technologies. I believe there should be more room on the web for primitive browsers to compete, and that to some extent, old tech that still works perfectly fine.

The little CSS library I made to do style things: https://rvklein.neocities.org/proj/dustbunny/dustbunny.css -- A lot of study went into this and like anything else I make, it can be a case of "design as art". Otherwise, it's useful just to have this handy to rip apart and re-purpose to liking for your own core stylesheet.
Your JS TrueType viewer is so dope!
Maybe I'm just being nostalgic for simpler times. I'm just glad we have standards now. Pre-standards web JavaScript is downright masochistic to program for. Especially considering externalities such as potential memory leaks, bigger performance caveats, and generally less performant hardware if you're simulating the experience of [pre-] dot-com bubble period web browsing as accurately as possible.
