    In the vein of "public libraries could never be created today," a pitch for a calculator would get you thrown out of the boardroom. What do you mean, it just maths?

    Remember kids, use CRT filters in your comparisons responsibly. Most web image and video displays will kill a CRT filter effect if captured directly. CRT filters look best captured offscreen. Also, 1080p images tend to garble CRT effects, too. 720p or 1440p upscales are more reliable.

    Switched to using a ball tracked mouse instead of a laser one cause my mouse died. Yall, you don't even realize what you lost. This feels so good. I can't believe this thing still works this well.

  8. E Ink displays used for eReaders and electronic labels usually only support 1-3 refreshes per second. But a growing number of projects are showing that custom display drivers can speed things up enough for retro gaming and other full-motion graphics. youtube.com/watch?v=XiZmM6hwwAU

Search looks through the last 36 hours of public posts for your words, "exact phrases", #hashtags, @handles and websites, and also finds posts about the same thing by meaning. New posts join about every 10 minutes. We only include posts whose authors allow logged-out viewing (Bluesky) or search (Mastodon, indexable accounts), and we re-check Bluesky authors each time we show a page. Likes and follower counts never decide the order. For meaning matches, query text is turned into a fingerprint on Wildroot’s own server (EmbeddingGemma-300M); it is never sent to another service. Wildroot does not save query text to disk. Looking for posts like one you have? Similar posts. How to opt out.
