and im trying to go the cheap route by not buying too many domains lol. a professor told me to purchase my full name as a domain and it was a huge waste of money lol

i wanna know why you even have to pay for it. like why do we have to pay for domain names. can

anyone tell me why we can't just send each other long long strings of random numbers as keys to view html documents instead of having to pay for a name

ur thinkin of the deep web type of sites me thinks. but yeah youre right. I fucking hate paying for domains, but I gotta if I wanna own my name :/

@benny domains are like online space for rent, you pay recurring fees for upkeep and security, like paying a landlord and HOA xD plus people might get lost with long strings of random numbers

but i'm totally okay with just owning free subdomain than owning costly custom domains. :3

yeah sure i get the metaphor but landlords & HOAs are not. good. and i don't wanna pay for shit so i guess i belong on the deep web or whateverrrr. someone hmu & teach me how to do that

@benny I would not know sadly.. it involves the tor browser tho. theres def some youtube videos on how to use deep web, but u also gotta take some security measures too

idk if i like this new thing or not T^T

I especially dont like it how supporters get a special red box

not rly my thing either,,,

one thing I kinda appreciate about this new UI update is the bigger thumbnails for site updates (inconvenient when your layout relies on iframes tho...)

@shittymeat999 the red box is for autoposts. green is for text posts. supporter has nothing to do with it

Ouh... oops. See the new ui is already confusing me LOL

Oh so THAT's what the colored boxes around the avatar means..

I mean those boxes arent new... Before there was a small colored strip on the left of the avatar that changed the color too

I had other plans for the page, but once I figure it out Ill probably make the update to include them

Thank you for sharing this, K. it gave me goosebumps. I have so much respect for how deeply you’ve understood him and captured his memories.

thank you so much france, it means a lot to me to hear that <3

dawg this is great

it looks like the site is deleted ... i went back to see some of their comments on your feed and clicking on their account sends a 404.

Wait what? I loved that website, it was really so cool. There's no way he used AI for all his artwork and design? It was way too awesome and custom?? I can see, maybe for some of the basic code.. But beyond that, everything was way too creative, no? Honestly, I thought that was one of the coolest websites I've come across, so I'm really sad to hear he's gone offline :(

He did say he drew his assets! When i asked him about a coding question he told me he used co-pilot.... and he would try arguing with me about ai sometimes. He even told me himself he felt like it was rotting his brain. Made me sad he continued to use it, but at least he told me what ai code looks like

shame to hear that. his site was very well "made" still i hope he's doing well

pretty sure they're still around, i saw them around here recently with a different username but ive forgotten it now

he created a new site named 'ruztbug' tho i don't think he made it known to everyone, someone just found and recognized him

yup its his new one and he now is coding everything by himself

OH YAY!! good for him!!

yeah im good. sorry for trying to defend it earlier @shittymeat999, I was also discussing it with my friend skigothy too and using ai for the code wasnt sitting right with me at all

no worries my dude, people learn and grow!! Im happy you decided to hand-code!! Makes me so happy!! Your sites always looked so cool so im excited to see you go in the right direction!!

AWAWAWAAAA!! HOIRRAY!! I wanted to add more electroswing but I cant remember or find any in my library.., If I find some ill add em later!!

I have a degree in full stack web engineering and I steal barely understand it lol
