...and cool sites
(NOTE: This is still being worked on!!! I haven't added everything, or much at all. I plan for this to be way longer. Anyway, I thought I would list all the sites that I like and resources I recommend in general here.)
LAST UPDATED: April 20th, 2020
Music
Artists & Labels
Easily my favorite artist. Beautiful works :)
A lapfox clone, minus the neonazi and rapist parts. Annoying, furry speedcore music. My favorite. I bought the whole discography.
A record label that releases riddim and dubstep music. I have a shirt!
A record label that releases IDM music. Lot's of r.roo's stuff. Best of the best for study music. They don't actually have a homepage, so I just linked their discogs profile. Go find the albums listed there, and stream them!
A record label that releases annoying furry speedcore from various artists. I like speedcore, especially from gay furries. It's a sort of fun that you can't experience with any other genre.
Other
A site to track what you listen to! My profile can be found here.
Warez
One of the first places to look for audio. It's a large P2P network, like from the halcyon days! If you want rare stuff, chances are, it's here. If you use this, make sure to organize and share your library too, though.
For more popular stuff, or really anything released to a distributor, use this. It's a bit complicated to start with, because you have to give it your login token, but once you do that there's no technical stuff involved. Just search, select, and hit download. Features a really pretty UI, built on Electron.
A site full of cracked programs, sample packs, and more. Aimed at music producers rather than consumers. Has a really nice design, too!
A sort of last resort. Not all audio is here, but if you want video game OST, that might be included in packages for games on here. You don't need to speak Russian to use the site. Usually even obscure games make it onto here, so if you want game OST that's not on either of the above two platforms, check here.
This isn't music, but I didn't want to make a whole section just for this. An online movie streaming service. Watch the newest releases in HD, no bullshit. Probably the best movie streaming service on the wired, lately.
Chans
Imageboards that I browse! A chan is a site that functions like 4chan- anonymous posting, boards, and images- but these ones usually lack the tasteless shitposting of modern 4chan. Obscure and comfy, strange and specific, or otherwise special, these are my favorite imageboards!
An imageboard which takes its name from the anime Serial Experiments Lain, and is generally for technologically-inclined people. They have active non-tech boards, but generally all of the people who frequent the site still hobby in technology in some way or another. Great if you want to know about what people whose lives are centered around modern technology do for the rest of their lives, like on the culture board, and also to keep up with cutting-edge technology on the various technology boards! This imageboard is fairly active and large, decisively the largest on this list, so don't feel shy taking a look around.
Extremely comfy imageboard. Kind people, slow pace, only a few boards but a dedicated and active community. Has boards for talking about mental health, dreams, and emotions. Very centered around compassion and people.
An imageboard mostly known for it's board /leftypol/. Bunkerchan hosts far-left political discussions (aka communist discussions) and is a great resource for active far left politics, and for people wanting to stay in the know on communist movements. However, due to its political nature, not very comfy and also not for the faint of heart at times. It's the antithesis of /pol/ and so some of the scum of 4chan can make its way inside.
Currently down. Don't know if it's coming back. This was the dedicated imageboard for Systemspace.
Technology
A guide for OS hardening and a resource for modern security.
A wiki for FOSS programs and alternatives for generalized things you might want to do on a computer- like email, web browsers, note taking, and document composure. A great resource for safe programs for beginners and experienced users alike.
A russian website for documenting bittorrent trackers for... just about anything. If you're looking for something, and you can't find it, chances are, it's here. You don't need to speak Russian to browse and leech from the site.
A cool landing page. Perfect for power-users, but also provides tons of common bookmarks you can explore to find where people hang out on the Wired. Or maybe, that's just a me thing. Features great utilities to search for torrents, and plus just generally looks cool.
I don't know how to describe this.
The TOR Project's official homepage.
Sort of like TOR, but more with a more modern UI, and decentralized protocol & functionality.
Another decentralized internet protocol.
WARNING: WILL BE EXCESSIVELY LAGGY ON LESS CAPABLE DEVICES (ARM laptops, smartphones etc) However, if your device is a desktop computer, you can run this alright and it's got a design that really fucks. :) Anyway, this is the homepage for the musical project MBR. The music itself isn't here, but is at https://masterbootrecord.bandcamp.com/.
The best Linux distro. Just werks.
I use this a lot to find programs similar to programs I already use, but that work better. Never, ever Google around for a program. You'll only find bloatware and companies trying to advertise their shit. Instead, find the first program you can find that does what you want, and look it up here to find the FOSS alternative to it, if one exists.
A program for organizing your pictures with tags, similar to how a booru works. Incredibly useful for tagging your memes so you can always find the right meme to post.
A desktop calculator. Supports a variety of functions, including time conversion, systems of equations, and your algebra homework. All done locally, no need for sites like Cymath. :D
Welcome to the void.
Free, anonymous chat rooms, with a terminal-esque aesthetic. Doesn't keep chat history.
An assortment of hosted services, including a Pleroma instance, XMPP server, and Git. Check out the chan it's for, by the way.
Online Stores
Internet imageboard humor themed patches. That's about it. Cool patches. Watch out for the excessive and edgy /k/ humor, though.
A decora kei fashion store, by Cybr.grl!
Fun
Are you soft yet?
CW // Unreality. A cool webcomic by CaptainHowdie.
