What's the greatest thing you've discovered while dicking around on the internet?

Also, I discovered this series of educational Latin books written in Latin, which have changed my life for the better {...}
I highly recommend them.

BIBLIOTHECA PARS I ET II

NobodyTM did it way better

Though you're being somewhat facetious, I feel the collaboration paid off in making the edgelord of Edmonton's stuff concise for the sake of the Youtube medium - whereas the Goat Worship, Parasite Dreams, and Eyes of Randy Prozac series seem to each be best consumed in marathon viewings. I think Worldview Warfare (released on YT via Nobody™) and Scythe (released in at least two cuts under the Sentimental Corp branding) best demonstrate this: The polemic message and pool of footage drawn from are the same - But each is tailored for the constraints of their respective canvas.

I guess the greatest thing I've discovered would have to be the rewriting of history, computer history in particular. Put simply, the systems we have available are not just unacceptable shit, they're much worse than systems available afterwards that have faded away, and even systems from the 1950s. I won't go into too much detail, but it became clear to me that if retards were obsessed with rewriting computer history to laud UNIX, and they are, then general world history has no hope of accuracy with the much more malicious people who wish to manipulate it.
I'd love to learn more about that, can you link any sources I could read?

I'd love to share my writings, but that seems inadvisable. Regardless, here's an introductory text:

This is The UNIX-HATERS Handbook, a book which describes the machines that predated UNIX, and those which competed with it. Many of the complaints are still valid, because the implementation flaws in UNIX can be corrected, such as in GNU, but the design flaws are rather innate.

In addition to learning why UNIX is shit, and learning just a little about the Lisp Machines, also take some time to learn about the Burroughs B5000:

So, there were machines in the fucking 1960s that enforced type checking and the like, whereas new machines only do it in software. Why? Well, the C language is largely unable to appreciate these features and others, such as bounds checking.

There existed computers that could not experience the kinds of flaws which still plague us. This is because smart people realized completely eliminating programming errors to be good. They lost in the market. Think of these machines and others whenever some UNIX nigger says the C language is how the machine really works. Lisp and Smalltalk are just two high-level languages which existed years before the C language, as an example. Smalltalk systems at Xerox PARC had bitmapped displays with mice while the UNIX niggers were playing with teletypewriters.

This is basically a matter of real lost history, and I've only shared the surface here.

I have found a lot of government auction sites. Those government auction sites are really fun to browse and have really good deals.
