web 1.0 host

Oct. 24th, 2025 06:46 pm

[personal profile] paperghost
I was browsing Melonland forums, and someone brought up an alternative free host besides Neocities and Nekoweb:

https://web1.0hosting.net/

Web 1.0 Hosting - is an advanced static hosting with some predefined most necessary ready-made scripts, a smallweb project that makes it possible to access static websites from old devices such as retro computers, old operating systems, palmtops, and cellular phones as part of an initiative to save the old web and support the smallweb movement. Hosting of modern websites and the use of modern technologies are also permitted. There is also a search engine, web mail and web chat, working on both modern and legacy systems.

Advantages:

  • As simple as possible
  • No ads at your website
  • 3rd level domain name for free: .w10.site, short .w0.am, .narod.ws and .oldcities.org
  • You can link your own domain name, see FAQ
  • 100 Mb of space for free, 500 Mb for community users, extra space for donation
  • Web-mail accessible from the old devices *
  • NEW!!! You can host website at your home and connect to the server using L2TP/ipsec, your webserver will be accessible by the login.w10.site/~/, this way you can host at your computer or server without real static IP any dynamic scripts using PHP, Python, whatever, any blog engines, forums, etc **
  • Overlay intranet between the users connected to the L2TP/ipsec server where you can host any services, such as gameservers, domain name in the intranet is your login.intra
  • Possibility to access website by IP http://135.181.118.12/~yourwebsite or http://[2a01:4f9:4b:1e30::3]/~yourwebsite without DNS
  • Unlimited traffic
  • Hotlinking is allowed: you can publish your static content such as photos, videos, scripts, etc, and include them at other websites hosted apart from the Web1.0 Hosting
  • No limits for file types
  • All the content accessible by HTTP and HTTPS using IPv4 and IPv6
  • Web file listing: autoindex is on, any directory without index.html file shows the list of the contained files and directories like it is a web FTP
  • Custom error 404 pages
  • FTP and FTPS for the file upload
  • Web file uploader, code, and WYSIWYG editors for modern web browsers
  • SSI (Server Side Includes) allows you to reuse your code and makes working on a static website as convenient as possible: edit the headers and footers just once and include them into other pages of your website (see FAQ)
  • Predefined scripts to have feedback from your website visitors, such as contact form, guestbook, photogallery, audio catalog, chat, blog, visitors counter, and likes which are supported by old browsers as well as in modern
  • Ability to order hosting using very old devices that support Internet connection and HTML
  • Suitable for WAP site hosting for mobile devices
  • Suitable for keeping digital assets proved by NFT
  • Website builder for creating websites from custom or ready-made templates using HamsterCMS
  • Your website is also published within the Yggdrasil network - a free worldwide decentralized overlay peer-to-peer network accessible as YourSite.ws.ygg ALFIS blockchain DNS), YourSite.ws.ygg.at using clearnet DNS, or using Yggdrasil IP without DNS as http://[300:a056:404a:1329::80]/~yourwebsite that allows to avoid any local internet access restrictions in the country without VPN and publish your content wherever you are. This (main) page of the webhosting is accessible by wh.ygg (wh.ygg.at using clearnet DNS ALFIS) or http://[300:a056:404a:1329::80]
  • WAP gateway for old mobile phones: 135.181.118.15:9201
  • Daily backups to two different locations
  • Excluded bus factor - several interchangeable people work on hosting, and not just one person
  • Furries friendly hosting
Sounds pretty great, if you ask me. I'm not moving from Neocities, but this looks like a good alternative for anyone tired of Kyle Drake's tech bro antics or Nekoweb's customer service done over Discord.

fic meme!

I snagged this from [personal profile] tinkaton.
Rules: How many letters of the alphabet have you used for [starting] a fic title? One fic per line, ‘A’ and 'The’ do not count for 'a’ and ’t’. Post your score out of 26 at the end, along with your total fic count.

A — Accidentally in Love (Smallville, Clark/Oliver)
B — better together (MCU, Steve/Tony)
C — close to each other (far from the others) (MCU, Sharon/Maria)
D — Dancing in the Rain (Smallville, Lois/Oliver)
E — the easiest path (isn't always the right one) (9-1-1, Buck/Eddie)
F — fly with me (Smallville/Nolan Batman, Clark/Bruce)
G — getting ready (for our future) (DCEU, Clark/Lois)
H — home for the holidays (MCU, Bucky/Sam)
I — i don't mind falling (as long as you'll catch me) (Smallville, Clark/Lois/Oliver)
J — Just The Way You Are (Smallville, Clark/Oliver)
K —
L — let it snow (Gilmore Girls, Paris/Rory)
M — maybe in the future (you're going to come back) (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Kimberly/Tommy)
N — no tricks, just treats (MCU, Bucky/Sam)
O — on three (he will stay) (DCEU, Diana/Steve)
P — playing pretend (with real feelings) (MCU, Maria/Sam)
Q —
R — Rumor Has It (Smallville, Clark/Oliver)
S — Several Weaknesses ... Only a Few Regrets (Smallville, Lois/Tess)
T — Taking Risks (Smallville, Lois/Lana)
U — underneath the mistletoe (Smallville, Lois/Lana)
V —
W — where you go (i'll follow) (MCU/What If ...?, Peggy/Steve)
X —
Y — you know me (honey, it's all or none) (Smallville, Clark/Oliver)
Z —

21/26! I am surprised I didn't have a fic with the letter "K" but I did find out that I had two fics with the exact same title! Whoops. I also seem to have a lot of fics that start with "i" or variations of that, which I didn't realize until I saw it laid out like that. Also I was reminded how I have written 1/3 of the Clark/Oliver tag on AO3, which is kinda fun. Someone left a comment on one of my fics a couple of months ago (after going through a lot of them) and was like "you are holding the Clark/Oliver tag down" (paraphrasing), which was not something I expected to hear in 2025 but I do love it. :D

Here's the meme for anyone who is interested!

Bought my ticket for Sonic Expo! Only for Saturday though, since 3 day passes are expensive lol. My work schedule the week before was changed to working 40hr... Which is actually good, because my paycheck will be fat before the con!

I also want to make an art tutorial... Whenever... I might do it in a format similar to plualthey / gray Folie's tutorials, because I like the comic format.

🌶️ I've started appreciating vegetable-based dishes as I get older, which the parents find endlessly amusing. Tangentially related to this, I randomly remembered the giant container of homemade laing Mom's friend sent over a while back. I usually avoid spicy food but this was so good. If you're interested in a spicy veg dish, here's a recipe. (Grain of salt: I can't vouch for how good the recipe itself is, as a non-cook.)

📚 I've started a re-read of Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer before jumping into the sequel books which I still haven't read but now finally own. Still very engaging! I wonder what details I'll pick up during this second read.

✒️ Settled on which Saiyuki WIP I want to try and finish before the end of the year. I started out planning it to be mostly from Goku's POV but realized halfway down the first page that it'd be funnier from the POV of the rest of the group. I'm just winging it, as usual, so I've got no idea how long this is going to be, if the lighthearted vibe is going to stay throughout, etc. 😆 We'll see where I end up when I get there.

so far the treatment the hand doc gave me has been wholly ineffective. i am... not thrilled about this, especially as it means i'm still in pain. i have to wait another week to see if it works, but if not, back to the doctor we go...

in other news, i have signed up for [personal profile] nepenthee's ghost of you shrine challenge, which i'm excited about. i haven't actually made any progress on my site yet on account of all the other stuff going on, but i'm hoping to put my head down and work on it soon. this time of year is usually my least productive when it comes to site-making, so it'd be nice to change that for once.

i still haven't really touched ff tactics; at this point i think i might wait until my hands are fully better and i can devote real time to it. other than that, i've continued to do an awful lot of reading. while there's no way i can hit my 2025 book goal of 40 books (i'm only at 17 right now), i've made much more progress than expected given i did no reading until june. silver blessings of a hand injury...

i have no idea what i'm going to do next month for my usual november writing. now that nanowrimo is dead i don't have the compulsion to write 50k (and i don't think it would be advisable this year) but i'd like to make SOME progress... we'll see.

Make it to Ishgard x3 is done 😤👌 speedrunning at 80 is my new favourite method for ARR patches, I did Mél from Thornmarch to entering Ishgard in two days. It takes a lot of additional effort to get there by reaching 80 first but it is so so so so worth it. Faye hit lv50 AST earlier so now I'll pivot to MCH... possibly double MCH, Mél needs a ranged. I wasn't originally going to give Faye MCH but an Ashe-Amélie daughter would carry a gun lbr, this is why they both have the bouncer holster trousers in half their glams.

I should bring Yorva through the end of ARR... but I may finally go back to Stormblood like, four months later. Woops. Pilgrim's Traverse is making me really want to play and gnaw on Shadowbringers again, and it's been like, three years since I have, so...

I think I'm mostly settled on how I want my OG Kallax to look with figures, minus a few that are not in there yet, either because they are on p/o or I need to pose them. I do this in stages by letting whatever I do sit a few days to see if I like it, so it takes a bit of time. I put the Mane Six across three cubes horizontal with two each and it looks really nice, though I'll try some different combinations once Rainbow gets here to see who looks best where. Applejack and Rarity together is non-negotiable though; this, too, is ouihaw...

I should probably look into lighting if I'm going to do that, though... this will probably have to be external somehow, because the acrylic inserts are very much flush. I will contemplate this alongside one of my kitchen lightbulbs I am still struggling to replace. I might have to abandon my preferred brand and try some independents with some more research. I'm also looking into potential tv benches since I'm still furniture kicking, though that might have to wait a bit for £££ reasons.

I've been working on some site maintenance I was endlessly asiding as a distraction for something, being changing filepaths on tributes so they link neatly to a folder for a page instead of bringing up the filetype - by which I mean, changing something from serah.farron.net/credits.php to serah.farron.net/site/credits. I did this for Control, Fire Emblem, and after two hours of fighting with the random image php script that was being picky, Serah - all tributes done now. I might try my fanlisting collective as well (and maybe fanlistings themselves?) although I too anticipate that breaking somehow, so not right now. Whilst I was doing that I also went through and added disclaimers of sensitive topics to get the children to leave... I drafted a list for Fray and Amélie and the first line of both is just "murder". Holding hands with healthy(?), entirely logical(??) grief coping mechanisms.

Lastly, added high protein lentil flour pasta to the accepted food list, hurray. (My body has been very upset after every dinner time but not for any specific reason or intolerance it seems, it just does that now.) this will help since all my protein options are fairly limited right now... I may try tomatoes again soon, since I feel like that may have been an onion misdirect... please let me have tomatoes again. 😭😭

whitehouse

[personal profile] paperghost
I've been thinking about the band Whitehouse again. I want to write a page about it, but I can't put how I feel into words... Until then, I found a good review on Tumblr that explains what they're about:

Whitehouse The Sound Of Being Alive (2016)

My fascination with Whitehouse started when Controlled Bleeding’s Paul Lemos name-dropped them during the reviews section of Long Island’s underground music zine Under The Volcano. Since Cruise (2001), I paid very heavy attention to what William Bennett and Philip Best had done because I always wondered how they got away with their subject matter. Almost no artist even dared to put serial killers, sexual deviancy, psychological torture, and obscene vocabulary on permanent medium. Even just as curious was Whitehouse’s sound. Yes, we all know that after William Bennett’s tenure with Essential Logic did he want to explore sounds that could incite people as well as “bludgeon” them. So he took it from there and never looked back. The total sum of all parts intriguing, racy, and controversial became very interesting. It was why the Cruise-era and beyond became the era I mostly identify and am most familiar with.

The Sound Of Being Alive is a twelve-track reminder of Whitehouse’s final period starting with Mummy & Daddy (1998) to their final record Racket (2007); re-collecting an era of provocation, African instrumentation, and real celebrity subject. By then, Whitehouse ultimately became more sophisticated and thought-provoking, sharper and essential than ever due to their near untouchable subject matter and place in the creative world. This compilation absolutely wastes no time in not giving one fuck about your personal safety or well-being. It doesn’t care about consoling you or identifying what you’re currently going through. They are not here to deal in the obvious self-help or friendly pick-me-up. They are only here to glorify violated feelings, account for damaged lives, and cutting criticism. They will even offer more questions to bring it all out, even if it’s yours. Of course, they can’t do it without creating the sonic power-violence helping to push their always-controversial themes that illicit the type of artistic criticism it deserves.

They couldn’t possibly touch upon the subject of violation without the damaging sounds of “Cruise (Force The Truth)” and “Princess Disease” through synthesizers racing like sirens or pulverizing militarized noise rhythms of “Why You Never Became A Dancer”. The lyrics on “Cut Hands Has The Solution” is in no way self-help; piling on issues of anorexia and cutting which are validated by the success of those suspected of self-imposing their drama on others. The extremely sexually intrusive and awkward “Dumping The Fucking Rubbish” deals a multitude of questions leaving zero answers because you’ll never get them. They never cared for answers as you seen on the cover for “Cruise”. And hold on to precious life when the pink noise from “Philosophy” hits.

Or, how they ruthlessly tear you down to nothing with the caustic “A Cunt Like You” where Bennett’s key shrills and Best’s hateful venomous beratement are both acidic. If you’re still not damaged or perplexed after somehow even attempting to process their artistic output, maybe “Daddo” could become the final blow where vibrating frequencies dance around a delicate glass rim before disintegrations erase any evidence of sanity or stability through flashes of risqué Lolita imagery.

But beneath the rally of all the heavy discord and valid shock, there’s a true substance under it all. The stories of Stuart Lubbock found dead inside British celebrity Michael Barrymore’s swimming pool and the brutal truthful eulogy that came with it on “Wriggle Like A Fucking Eel”. A scathing attack on artist Tracey Emin as “Why You Never Became A Dancer”. The mystical African instrumentation and cultural references from “Dyad” and “Cut Hands Has The Solution”. The origins of “Philosophy” or “Just Like A Cunt”. These aforementioned tracks rewarded Whitehouse fans when they discovered their true obscure meaning. The former two would cross into tabloid and celebrity territory in order to really deliver the dirt. Ascetisists 2006 and Racket (2007) would help signal Bennett’s change of artistic direction to become Cut Hands. The final two stem from Bennett’s second-hand experiences of downright hateful arguments between two warring sides.

The idea that Whitehouse ran its course making a mark of the taboo, the racy, and the unspeakable speaks volumes. Very few (noise) artists really did go for the kill the way they did. Bennett’s start-of-project created lots of controversy because of his thrust of the unknown, causing lots of distress and violence because no one understood it. With Best helping to change Whitehouse’s direction and writer Peter Sotos throwing a little of his money in, Whitehouse pushed the limits on noise and subject matter as far as it could within reason to such distinction. Hearing all that’s said and done, The Sound Of Being Alive as a whole signifies the hideous, the missed expectations, and the damaging reality of it all that make you wonder if this is what existing and breathing really is.


I might try to write my page about how I feel. I can't reccomend Whitehouse. I don't like this kind of music. But it was "there for me" at a bad time when nothing else was.
