Could be obscure hobby related or a useful underrated site.
You can do anything at Zombo.com. Anything at all. The only limit is yourself.
Is this a meme or what? I can’t do anything at all with Firefox in Android.
The unattainable is unKNOWn at ZomboCom.

This is my favourite website
I spent the last 10 minutes of my workweek on this site.
Thank you.
Very niche here, but worth a look if you’re in the market for rechargeable batteries:
Crazy detailed benchmarks and technical analysis of flashlights, batteries, and chargers.
Now thats niche!
ooh I AM in the market. Ty!
Is there an article on there about which one was best?
No; there isn’t really a “best”. It’s dependent on what application the batteries will be used for. A high capacity, low current cell will be good for something like a remote control. For a high current draw device, you’d want cells that have low internal resistance / better current flow, likely at the cost of total capacity.
Jeg ville ønske, det var fredag 😩
Det er det i dag 😄
Det manglede da også bare! Jeg har gået og ventet på fredag siden søndag!
The site that comes to mind is Ian’s Shoelace Website. The ultimate guide about shoelaces. The most impactful/important thing for me was Ian’s Knot, the fastest and most correct way to tie a shoe. I discovered this website in the mid-2000s and have been using his method since. Anyway, it’s a fun and comprehensive website about shoelaces. https://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/ianknot.htm
Well im definetely checking this while i sing a g l e t AGLET
Any new philosophy or philosophy adjacent idea I discover and want a beginners level understanding over. Incredible stuff here.

The name explains it.

My go to etymology website.
This is the website I never knew I needed
Fun fact: noone knows the etymology of ‘dog’.
Super cool thanks for posting this
Ha! I’ve got a shortcut for that on my phone’s main page.
Saaaame, like every other day I hear a word and start guessing where it must’ve come from and then have to go check. Today it was cashmere (from Kashmir) got it right!
Ps if you’re into this kinda thing check out the podcast lingthusiasm.
OMG I thought I was alone! Have you tried the “Words for Granted” podcast?
Yessss thats another great one! Ray Belli is a good host.
If this website ever disappears from the internet it will herald the end of the world.
You win.
Never have I ever felt so welcome.
To ZOMBO COM
Am I completely out of the loop here or do I simply not understand, what is happening here?
Anything and everything. The only limit is yourself. You can do anything at zombo.com!
I don’t know if it fits, but congrats, you’ve just reached the end of the internet. There’s nothing more to see.
I’m not down voting you because I disagree with your pick, but because this answer needs to be at the very bottom of the thread.
Damn, it’s been like what, 15 years or so, since I last visited that page.
That’s definitely https://noclip.website/
I love retro video games (and current games). And some badass implemented the rendering of several games and consoles in JavaScript just for fun, so that you can explore levels from many games right in your browser.
Note that I did say explore, not play. This website let’s you fly the camera through the level like with a “no clip cheat” (hence the site name).
It somewhat works on mobile devices in landscape mode (and maybe also “show desktop page”), but is best viewed and controlled on a PC.
Ripped old school 3D models
2D sprite sheets as well, no?
Wow, kinda makes me wish I had a purpose for these…
Pair it with sci-hub so you can actually read the whole articles and not just abstracts.
I was sticking with the ‘one website’. Thanks for adding my second post. ;-)
Here’s another: https://libgen.is/ - Library Genesis
Anna’s Archive does it for me. It’s so good!
Niche hobby website from the 90s that’s both really useful and still updated (somewhat) - the Parker pen penography. Look at all those pens! Genuinely the most useful source of info on the topic of old Parkers that isn’t a big hefty coffee table book. Most of it probably isn’t too interesting to non-fountain pen people, but there’s some articles about the history of Parker and their decline that might be interesting if you like economics and buisness (like the one about the Itala
Incredibly niche! And funnily enough one Ive been on before.
Curbside Classic a nice hobbyist site about Classic cars and related subjects. I go there every day, has a lot of extremely informative (but very niche) content
nice, do you know other such websites but about topics other than vintage cars … i think our internet today has become too boring as most people just visit the same 5 to 6 sites (YouTube , reddit , wiki , insta , twitter , and twitch) and call it a day … websites like these make me curious about the days when we had separate websites like these for such niche content
Cant think of anything off hand that niche that isnt car related. This site is much more general but has some great writing on it
