ty guys you are so sweet

man i fuckin love chickens😭

Guys a chicken plays better on piano than me :(

Smart little yard birds lol

billions of years of evolution led up to this very moment

they are pretty easy to train, as theyre deeply food motivated and intelligent. they can also count, do basic maths, recognise faces (and prefer beautiful people), sing, recognise themselves in mirrors, have a language, etc

also they display empathy for each other! https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-startling-intelligence-of-the-common-chicken1/ https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0291416 https://www.scienceworld.ca/stories/chickens-can-do-math/

This fun fact was VALIDATED by TRUE Neocities WEBMASTERS

the chicken has suck a jazzy feel

Yeah I could animate it and use a GIF, or figure out how to repurpose https://codepen.io/amit_sheen/pen/WNOroWM OR https://www.cssplay.co.uk/menu/css3-3d-billboard.html but it'll be easier if I just make my page simpler. So nevermind

aw damn that sounds like it would've been so cool!! wish it was easier to get stuff like this to work without external libraries

The worst feeling :( I'm in a similar boat. I think the 3d billboard animations do look awesome!

i would use canvases for this but at the same time that would require preloading the next page and storing it out of view and like writing transformation functions and ok yeah i can see why that would be complicated. shit

damn thats a shame

had similar experiences. some things just lag like crazy on css, like big blurs or drop-shadows.

damnit, I guess you have to go for the gif option

@psychicnewborn can confirm. if you want to lag your site the best way to do it is to stack a lot of blurs. my pre-molt site used to have like 3 different blurs stacked on top of each other on rare occasions

shhhhhhhhh I love blur.....

I thought i would avoid them when I got here but I changed my mind I like tagging people and it’s fun to provide a chat box ambience ina way sometimes. I had a horrible experience with harassment a month or two ago with cbox that I had issues handling with a free account however.

a chatbox basically feels like a lower-effort version of a guestbook...i've considered removing mine just because having a guestbook makes it redundant. but for anyone wanting to drop a quick hello without a longer message it's nice to have

I only put one on my site so people can talk to me directly. That way nobody can ban me.

i think chatboxes/comments/guestbooks are nice for letting people who dont have a neocities account comment on your site! forms are cool for finding other people in the personal web who might not be hosted on neocities, or who may not update often enough to be easily discovered ^^ now i've never really hung out in someones chat box and chatted with other people there, but i do think forums are neat

i rarely post, but i browse the melonland forum pretty often. there's some interesting discussions as well as useful resources/guides that i wouldn't have found anywhere else

I mean having a guestbook lets other people outside of neocities have a first greeting like the activity feed similar to neocities, which there are since there's other places like nekoweb, having a guestbook is pretty nice though I haven't had a chatbox before, although forums seem pretty nice but i gotta give some a try soon

chatboxes are super cool, although they can come with downsides (also known as Trying to use CBOX) - nobody really visits them due to the fact that it's kinda random and nerve-wracking but like a guestbook it's cool to have

I see, yeah I heard people hang out frequently on onio.club but I'm a little iffy with how quickly a public chatbox can go off the rails. I think it's about time I check out the MelonLand forums though. Thanks everyone!

psssst come to Treefort

I don't know what that is but I will find it

eh, it's a little bit of both. it's a fun way to socialize, but I grew bored. i think its strengths is in creating a community that is very passionate about a specific thing, and i just don't get passionate about stuff like that, so not much to talk about

odd. ill try and fix that.

i think i fixed it

YES it works awesome now!

She made a post about how her irl friends found her site. I don't think she was happy about it. I hope she's OK.

She's probably ok. At least I hope. She mentioned that she was thinking about deleting her site and that's probably what happened. I will miss her :(

Oh I've been on her website before, didn't interact with her but it looks like the website is down so it's been deleted, I've had an irl acquaintance find my website and ask me about one of the things I made but didn't care about the scalie-ness of me anyways, but I hope she's okay

She turned it off for now. I think she was embarrassed that her irl friends found her website

Yeah, I hope she's okay... seems like things have been hard for her lately

Damn, I definitely missed that announcement post. Hope she's okay

oh SHIT she's really gone. at first she just changed the site name so i thought it was just that. rest in peace soldier

didnt know of her site til now, but hope she's doing okay yeah, i kinda know the feeling (had to funnel the journal-y bits of my site-constellation way more private recently for adjacent discomfort reasons)

damn i just logged on for the first time in a while :(

she posted her email awhile back while contemplating getting off of here, i sent her an email but idk how responsive she is. if you'd like to reach out it's ch3sca@proton.me

I just tried to email her, and i got an automatic response saying the email was deleted...

Oh shit.

Thank you!! Your site is awesome too, I love the specific shade of yellow. I will be screaming with the void for a good while

yoo less goo broooo

That's what makes Neocities such a goated place. The people here are a lot more creative and they also know when to take breaks from the internet

this is so real, im following so many people because i genuinely like their sites and want to see when they update, but my feed is not at all overhwelming. granted some people have not updated their site in years, but if they do come back I'll still be able to see it!

I like it because it’s a much more realistic depiction of a creative process. Social media encourages it to be fast and perfect but this format lays out a nice realistic timeline

Yeah this also makes art get burried as well, there's a reason why you see people repost their own stuff, in addition you can still see their changes later if you visit again which I like

i had beans today respect

It's been the biggest breathe of fresh air to consume with intent, verses the mindless slog of being fed. I'm so grateful for neocities!
