Small Web Finds

[Parzival]

Always sad to have a site go down in the time since you first found it, makes the internet feel even more ephemeral than we know it to be. My list of links to add to my site had swelled up to like 70 over a span of 4 months and when I went to add them to my site's link directory at least 5-10 had gone down.

Yeah, it's an absolute tragedy. You never know which ones its gonna be, but you do know it's at least going to be some. :Sigh:

This is gonna be a bunch of linguistics stuff.
https://www.omniglot.com/
Encyclopedia of languages and writing systems, very small pieces of info about them but it's fun to sample languages.
https://gramatica.usc.es/pln/tools/freeling.html
FOSS parsers for various languages.
https://linguistics-ontology.org/
General Ontology for Language Description, basically a formalized set of principles for linguistic typological analysis, cases, POS, conjugations, alignments.
https://www.openfst.org/twiki/bin/view/FST/WebHome
OpenFST, a tool for creating weighted finite-state transducers for morphological analysis.
https://oldenglish.info/
Introductory course to Old English.
https://www.hieronymus.us.com/latinweb/
Monumenta Litterarum Latinarum: a repository of Latin texts of the Classical and Medieval periods (alongside some other historical texts in other languages!)
Posting these here because sites like this have practically decided the trajectory my life would take when I started getting into them when I was about... 7 or so.

Wow this is a really cool collection of resources, thanks for sharing! Love how the last one looks you can see it's age for sure.

Found this site while trying to find a good scan of one of the volumes of Trigun Maximum.

Holy shit this already exists?! So cool. I wonder how many other SciADV sites are floating around on the JP internet. I found the official MAGES We-Key Pedophilia page and also an archived copy of a Phantasm band website, albeit one that doesn't quite look 1:1 to the game. If you have anymore do share them!

Was looking for info on the Robotics;Notes LE CD and ended up finding this site.

Holy shit lol. I was expecting a site with such an official-looking domain to just be minimalist dreck like the rest of the corporate Western internet tends to be and was blown away when the page loaded. Takes you back to when even the "big sites" looked good... they don't make em like this anymore.

I mean look at that. Just presents all the information straight to you instead of making you hop through 20 nested menus to find details/specifications like every modern shopping site does. It's beautiful. If I ever start purchasing DVDs this will become a hotspot of mine for sure.
