That is a nice style.

Looks cool and super nostalgic

Really nice retro vibe. Feels clean and focused.

Somehow disgusting but also lovely :). Now i want one styled after OS/2 Warp for my own site.

It looks beautiful, but unfortunately, on mobile, the titles get truncated at about 4 words for me. I had to enable desktop mode to read enough of the title to get the context.

reminds me of that: https://institut-fdh.de/ but your's is way better implemented it seems - very nice! (disclaimer: it's my site, shameless-plug )

The style is really fun, and your writing is interesting. I find it slightly ironic, though, that many of your articles that make a case against AI-generated writing are illustrated by AI-generated images. I forget who made the insightful comment that most people seem to think that AI should take over in every field except their own :)

Nice job. Some feedback: - Clicking the minimize arrow should collapse the File Manager down to the classic file drawer icon. - Detect if the browser agent is Internet Explorer with ActiveX to enable the A/B icons drives by iterating through the user's drive collection.

Definitely windows-y. But makes me want to see what Windows 3.1 could have looked like at 216ppi without the visible pixels, though. Would it still have the Windows aesthetic or would people think it’s confusingly familiar but not recognize it or would it be something else altogether? No one’s mentioned that the minimize icon is not pixelated, and I only noticed because I went looking for it — so clearly it’s theoretically possible for it to pass!

That's really cool.

I feel soiled. (lol, it's good)

Author here. I'm reverting the theme, but will make it accessible through a link / open source it.
