Today is the anniversary of America's time zones. Before the railways forced standardization, every town had local time, more or less based on solar time. That was chaos.
England actually had railway time decades earlier.

Morning Glow-Up
This is with the Agfa ePhoto 1680, a 1.3MP CCD camera from 1998. It's pretty temperamental, while it takes 4 AA batteries, normal alkaline batteries don't provide enough juice; I found that Li-Ion rechargeable are the only way to go.
I love the time when they experimented with various camera shapes as they weren’t constrained by how film needs to physically be in the camera anymore.

I have MANY issues with the #YouTube algorithm, but every now and then it just recommends me a #video of some random person with 6 views and 92 subscribers looking absolutely delighted as they review the #books they’re reading.
And I can’t stop smiling watching these videos every now and then because they are so human, earnest, and wonderfully awkward.

Anyway, this is the video that prompted me to post this. The delight when they pull out their crochet book is so heartwarming 🥹 #YouTube #video #books

Bought it at the Five and Dime
Typed it 'til my fingers bled

An exception is possibly when you make a website that looks awful on purpose, e.g. for nostalgia for marquee elements and so on.
(Even then please make it honor user preferences.)

OK, I replaced the non-working Windows start menu with a open source alternative, this actually works fine and seems faster too
