This feels like a Star Trek episode.

If your website is still http only, no https...

... are you okay? Do you need help doing archival work? this isn't shade, we just saw the long tail of the web forced offline with the move to https everywhere.

Are you holding on to an http only site for someone who's passed? DM me and I'll help you save a copy some place more durable than a personal or academic server sitting on someone's desk or in a closet. Let's save the remnants of the old web before they go offline entirely.

"You forgot? Must not be important."

Listen bro, I can and have forgotten to eat, pee, sleep, cash cheques. I've lost my car by taking the bus home after driving there.

Importance is not a distinguishing factor here. The fact a commodore 64 has more RAM than I do is the issue

html5 will never replace flash

A month ago I found a cute meme on the internet that I thought would look excellent on my office wall. The bottom of the image said “National Park Service” and some quick image searches found it was originally from the nationalparkservice Instagram account, part of a promotional series to encourage park safety. But Instagram resizes things for the web. So, of course, I did what any internet weirdo would do; I filed a DOI FOIA request for the original artwork. Today the DOI found it for me!

If like me, you were a child of the '90s, you might remember "ReBoot" – a pioneering 3D animated kids series created by Vancouver's own Mainframe Entertainment.

These documentarians have gotten a hold of the original, uncompressed digital masters. The problem is, they're in the D-1 format.

If anyone in the #retrotech community has access to a Bosch BTS D1, or a comparable D1 player/decoder, I urge you to reach out to @ReBootReWind (on Twitter) to help preserve #ReBoot!
