Honesty and really as of now much more interaction than lemmy, and no downvotes for not using Linux or saying Linux is hard for anyone regularly using windows
I'm stoned and don't know what I was expecting but that made me giggle a lot, and I'm also reeeealy glad I have food warming up, otherwise I would be really upset. 😂
If the moon were only one pixel
An accurate presentation of the solar system where the size of the moon is a single pixel. It really makes you realize how big and empty our solar system is. (Be prepared for a lot of scrolling)
One night, I stumbled on a website posting the thoughts and words of Joseph Duncan, who killed a family in northern Idaho. As well as others in other states. He was on death row and wasn't allowed internet access, but he was getting his words out there, and someone was posting for him.
He went into many details of what led to those Idaho murders. Things that were never mentioned in the press. How he came to be there and very intimate details of that night and things that happened after. It was not easy to read, but I had this weird sense of obligation to continue once I started. Like I would be doing the family a disservice if I didn't read what they had gone through that night. Sounds weird, I know. There are certain scenes of it that I'll never get out of my head.
When he was caught with the lone survivor, he had kidnapped (kidnapped two but killed the boy not long after), I was just down the street at a different restaurant. I had just moved to the area when the murders happened.
He also went into detail about him taking and killing a boy in southern California, which was near where I grew up.
I don't remember the website name, and I imagine it is gone now since he died of cancer in 2020.
I'm assuming this is it https://5nintroductions.blogspot.com/ ?
curiosity got me so I did a search for his name with "writings" and a reddit post came up with this link. I haven't read any of it yet..
Though a quick look, looks like his actual details that I read are scrubbed. Will check further though.
I remember there being separate sections or possible a link to other stuff. Been awhile, so hard to remember. Not even sure how I stumbled upon it anymore. Must have been in a true crime reddit thread.
Wondering if whoever maintains it took down his actual writings.
Not a specific website, but digital gardens are super cool. They are like people's personal wkis full of their thoughts and interests. It's not like a chronological blog, but instead it's a web of hyperlinks connecting thoughts and ideas together!
Ah, the site that is still responsible for me locking any PC when I walk away from it. During college within our class there was a very high chance if you left a PC unlocked you would come back to this website. I remember one time, me and a buddy found about 4 of our classmates all out of the lab with unlocked PCs during a late night working session. They could hear the song playing from all 4 computers as they were walking down the hall. I'm sure whatever IT folks saw our browsing history thought we were weird, and they'd be correct.
