I found a copy of the internet before it was turned into an ad-infested, Javascript-invested, corporate surveillance swamp run by 5 American big-tech monopolies with deep ties to the American fascist regime.
Yep indeed
Tons of old game guides. I've found I like those more than modern game wikis - no ads, portable, and info is complete & concise. Plus there's usually great art in 'em, too. Big fan, me.
Also - The Day The World Broke. Old point-and-click adventure/puzzle game. Quietly hoping we see a remaster of it someday.
Yes, the official spanking game guides even often. All authorized and shit
Some legend kept and later digitized years worth of the background muzak tapes from k-mart.
I remember when that guy put all that stuff online, and vaporwave sickos (complimentary) went absolutely hog wild
I was literally just about to add Muzak archives
About 15 years ago, vodo.net hosted about 70 films that were all under a Creative Commons licence. It was awesome then, site is now RIP.
There are a handful easy to find (and maybe more) on archive.org
Hilarious documentary about the world mini-golf championships. https://archive.org/details/VODO2CrazyGolf
Ice western, action-drama https://archive.org/details/Snowblind-film__2010
Documentary about duo of undercover, disruptive pranksters https://archive.org/details/TheYesMenFixTheWorldP2pEdition
I missed Trent Reznors Coachella set this year, found it shortly later on archive.org.
I was pleasantly surprised to find King of The Hill available to stream when I was out of the house and I couldn't connect to my Jellyfin server. Also a lot of textbooks in university.
When i discovered they had Grim and Evil and all those childhood cartoons I grew up on it was eye opening.
Too much to list.
I used to be a frequent uploader!
Cool, but mundane, was the collection of Watkins audio cassettes I transferred using my old cassette player through a capture card: https://archive.org/details/watkinsaudio
I also transferred sone large format negatives of a building demolition in Regina. I had an entire box I wanted to transfer and hand over to the Saskatchewan Provincial Archives, but unfortunately life got in the way of that: https://archive.org/details/img147_20181005
Both say the uploader is unknown because I deleted my old account some time ago.
Edit: Totally forgot that lemm.ee vanished.
