This website, created by Michael Bach, hosts a collection of 156 non-scary optical illusions and fascinating visual phenomena. It emphasizes interactive exploration, offers scientific explanations of underlying visual mechanisms, and contains no adverts.
ASCII Theatre streams free text-based movies in a terminal via an SSH connection using the command line shown on the site. A step-by-step guide describes opening Terminal.app, pasting the code and pressing enter so the day's movie plays. Closing the terminal or pressing q stops playback. The page states it is desktop only and includes an email sign-up for future MSCHF releases.
Oracle is an interactive web program that analyzes patterns in a user's left and right arrow key inputs to predict their next keystroke. It is typically correct around 70% of the time, as humans struggle to act randomly. The program records each keystroke, compares the frequency of subsequent left or right inputs after matching four-keystroke sequences, and guesses the more common outcome. A similar approach can be applied to Rock-Paper-Scissors.
WordCount is a web tool that displays the frequency of words, names, and functions in Linux kernel source code. Users can browse example counts or submit comma-separated custom word lists to retrieve frequency results. The tool supports wildcard (*) searches and combined term sums using the foo|bar syntax, with words defined by backslash while ignoring case and accents. Interactive graphs are available for users with JavaScript enabled, while non-JavaScript users see an outdated static PNG version. The page creator also hosts other recreational content.
The Death Generator is a project created by Alice Averlong, with its source code publicly available on GitHub. It offers a gallery of generators, accepts financial support via Ko-fi or Patreon, and includes features such as no canvas dependency, automatic wordwrapping, and transparent background support for generated images.
FakeUpdate.net is a prank website that displays fake Windows update screens for users to prank friends and colleagues. It offers fullscreen mode, a simulated blue screen of death, multiple visual themes, and support for numerous languages.
HyperText is a miscellaneous web resource for discovery, directories, archives, web culture, or useful tools.
