Link List
Anime
aniwave.to
This is my go-to place to watch anime online. They've got a lot of my favorite titles, both subbed and dubbed.
Comic Books
Read Comic Online
Readcomicsfree.com went down, so this is now my new favorite for reading old comics from the 90s and 80s.
Computing
Wallhaven.cc
My absolute favorite place to get wallpapers. You can filter by size, aspect ratio, color, and content. If you can't find a wallpaper you like here, there's no hope.Waifu & Chill @ Patreon
I love Waifu & Chill's youtube channel (I'm a member) and I love grabbing a new wallpaper from his collection whenever there's a new one.
Dungeons & Dragons
Acheron Games
Acheron Games makes great supplement materials for D&D 5e, including my personal favorite: Inferno, which is a hellish supplement based on The Inferno by Dante Alighieri.
Music
NewRetroWave Records
I love synthwave. It makes me believe that the 80s never ended, and NewRetroWave Records has some of the best synthwave artists out there. If you're looking for something that's not the music industry same-old, give these guys a look.Laserdiscs Records
Even more great synthwave. Seriously, I can't get enough.SNESmusic.org
A fairly complete library of background music from SNES games in .spc format. You'll need an audio player or a plugin that can handle them.Waifu and Chill
Whenever I want to put on some background music to chill and code, this is my go-to. I love this guy's art, even if it is all AI generated.Winamp Skin Museum
The Winamp Skin Museum is chock full of old Winamp skins. There's a lot of them that are plain awful, but it's still really fun to go through a huge archive like this and browse around. It's an endless scroll, so you'll never run out of nostalgia.
News
Hacker News
Despite the name, not a news site about hacking. It is, however, some of the geekiest news you'll ever run across. Most of it is over my head.The Daily Kos
Another news site with a lean to the left.
Palladium Megaverse
Palladium Store
The official online store of Palladium Books. When I buy my books, I always get them from the source.Kitsune's Palladium Web Page
A treasure trove of quality fan-made content for the Palladium Megaverse, and my personal inspiration for making this site.
Politics
The Anarchist Library
An archive focusing on anarchism and anarchist texts, all freely available to read or download in multiple formats.It's Not Cyberpunk
An excellent essay that details how the dystopia that is modern American life isn't the cyberpunk that we were promised, but gothic horror instead. Very well written.
Programming
Automate the Boring Stuff with Python
A really good (and free) ebook for getting you up to speed with python quickly, and getting it to do useful things. This is a great second step in learing python, or a good first step if you have prior programming knowledge, even in a different programming language.learnpython.org
A beginner's introductory course to programming with python. Very simplistic, and very much geared toward the absolute newbie. A perfect place to start if you have never programmed before, but if you have a lot of the material will feel too easy for you.
Video Games
Vimm's Lair
One of the most stable collections of classic ROM files on the net. I have no idea how Vimm has been around since 1997, but I'm grateful. This site has been my go-to for classic gaming literally for years. It's not a complete archive anymore (thanks, Nintendo) but it still has most of what you might want.Batocera Linux
A Linux distribution dedicated to retro gaming and emulation. It can even be run from a USB drive, so there's no need to replace your existing operating system.Itch.io
A great site to try and buy tons of independant games.The Cover Project
A handy site for people like me who think that the box art is just as important as the game itself. A good box art can make even a mediocre game look amazing, and it's ususally what draws a person to pick up the game and give it a shot. In an era where digital downloads are king, and physical copies are becoming rarer, this kind of site is a breath of fresh air.
The Web
Ytoo.org
A neat retro styled internet portal, styled after the old Yahoo! directory. It also allows you to search with alternative search engines like Old'aVista.The Old Internet Shows Signs of Quietly Coming Back
This is a well written article with a brief history of the early internet (going back even further than I can remember) and detailing the nightmare that corporate run web has become, and how people like myself are keeping the tradition of the personal website alive.The Web Is Fucked
An excellent manifesto by Kev Quirk regarding how the current state of the web is hot garbage, and that Web 1.0 was a better place. In a lot of ways, it mirrors the ideas outlined in my essay, but I disagree with his conclusion. The Web 1.0 isn't dead, but it's widespread adoption is unlikely without a massive paradigm shift of the majority of internet users.
