  • LOW TECH MAGAZINE: articles about low-tech solutions. Runs on solar power, so sometimes it goes offline.
  • Ground News: yeah yeah, every other YouTuber seems to be sponsored by them. It's nice for a quick view of the news and the bias (left v. right) of a topic. Will keep an eye out for the enshittification of it, though!
  • Car Complaints: I don't have or care about cars anymore, but I love this website. It's accurate, and I can say that as someone who previously had a terrible vehicle.
  • Files Found: a website documenting found files and their contents.
  • ROT13 De/Encoder: ROT13 is a cipher. People typically use it to talk spoilers on places without a spoilering function.
