Remember when the internet was all about portals? 😂 Ah, '98, when "Do you Yahoo?" was a legitimate question and #AltaVista was considered cutting-edge. Fast forward to 2025, and we're still obsessed with which tech giant is devouring the others—only now it's in 4K. 📺💥

YouTube has done the impossible by creating a feature that combines the annoyance of unmuted #autoplay videos with the charm of a malfunctioning Speak & Spell 🎤🤖. Users are trapped in an endless loop of robotic nonsense that makes you long for the simplicity of dial-up internet. 🚫🔊

🎉 2024: A year of innovation, where the only thing more consistent than tech conferences is the internet being "broken" for 25 years straight! 🤔 Spoofed IPs are the new retro, and BCP38's vintage charm is rivaled only by RPKI's slow dance into relevance. Why fix what we can nostalgically complain about? 📡

HOLY SH---! I made a dollmaker NOT the prettiest art, especially the base, but I really hope I can make more dollmakers this way. I used javascript, and I do admit that I used a certain robot to help me make this. It should work on mobile, I tested it on my phone.
