You'll make an .ahk file with this inside as the contents: !-:: { Send "—" }

^ A file with just that inside, exactly like that! http://www.autohotkey.com — I use the 2.0 version I've got to figure out a way to do the same thing with a similar program on Linux; it's a Windows program................

I hope this helps others who really want to write — one of these things And if there's a more practical way of doing it and if there's a better way of doing this, let me know! We all learn from each other

man i wish i had that tutorial sooner it wouldve saved me a lot of learning lol

@goopatheguick I've taken the tutorial before when I first started and it really just went over some basic concepts of HTML...... and that was okay! 'Specially because it was at that time where I didn't know absolutely ANYTHING about HTML.................... which still surprises me of how long it's been But I bet I'd recommend it to anyone now who wants to make a 'site -

or learn more of how to make a 'site since it's got updated!

this is gonna be very useful. Although I think the tutorial with the comic is only when you first sign up?

@lemerks I've been on here for two years at this point (still surprised) and I did see the comic tutorial when I was on here before the whole dark mode and search engine update, there's times I would just look back at it for fun, it was just on that same page. It actually used to be: https://neocities.org/tutorial but they added an 's' to the URL!

- through a freeware program........ I've been thinking of making part of my 'site or a seperate one that uses a table layout and older things for fun, I was thinking of putting Real Media files on there. Definitely wouldn't use 'em on my main 'site and *mainly* use RealPlayer.... no. Been wondering what people's experiences were with it long ago and thought: why not ask you?

In those times, due to where I lived, internet was slow and expensive. Another factor was that I was poor, and computers were expensive back then, which meant all I had was a knock-off Pentium II clone that could barely play a GIF file. Mid-1998 the internet speed was 33,6kpbs here, so video sharing was deemed basically a non-starter.

Early in 2000 I was finishing my work-back period at the state owned telco. I used that last opportunity before I left, to download the Sonic OVA, it took an excruciating 14 hours overnight to pull down a 266Mbyte 640x480 video compressed with MPEG-4, and when I got it my computer didn't have the grunt to play it. During 2003-2004 we got our anime, movies everything from LANs and/or anime screening weekends

In 2005 broadband internet arrived, albeit <1MBps... and with ridiculous data caps of 3GBytes. But there were ways and means to bypass it, and that we did... And then came YouTube.. 2008 was when I got into it really

And now we have 400/400Mbps optical fiber into my home... but I don't take it for granted because I remember the times when my lousy, slow, internet connection COST MORE than this state-of-the-art

@sonic2k Thank you so much for telling me about this! I've always heard and known about clones of electronics but I haven't even heard of clones of CPUs before? I guess you could only load web pages with text & images to a point..... and there was the option to disable images and scripts built into browsers or separate extensions

I bet that felt really good to be able to download the whole Sonic OVA at your workplace at the time, or if I'm misconceptioning; they provided you internet at home. But sad that you didn't have enough computer power to play it :( Anyone can overlook at how MPEG-4 can run fine and play on any computer nowadays, but codecs are powerful, complicated things

Were the data caps from the ISP? Wondering how that worked..... that's great you were able to get past it And nowadays with fiber internet, we people get frustrated and spoiled when we're downloading from a slow server!

Thanks! We've been making tons of new art and progress on the game! and can't wait to show you all!

hi knuckles!!!!

klunkles

who is JEREMIAH?!!???

@radicalblur hes jeremiah

....... and then it makes me sad, I feel as if I'm lagging behind in not only my personal projects but trying to keep up with what's going on in the world at times....... I can not take it all at once I learned a new word today and it really fits with this! I don't want to be perfunctory with what I do

Don't worry dude don't be sad for these things,just take the time for finishing your stuffs ;) I, too, don't really keep up with the news sometimes, you know ;) But what makes these sites on Neocities so incredible is that we took our time creating them... WITH PASSION ! So,please,don't worry for that.

@sonic-dunyasi Thank you ;))) I learned that I'm one of those people who have several interests, several things I want to learn and do in my life, several hobbies..... and I need to learn how to balance it out There's times I feel sad because I don't feel finished with the layout of my website, but I think I need to accept it as it is

- It doesn't mean I can't improve it later. I'm inspired by pretty much everyone and everyone I know at least on here, I do feel sad at times when I see where someone else is with their website and that I'm not finished with what I'm making But I need to forgive myself, going to take a break and take my time with what I want to do
