Could be obscure hobby related or a useful underrated site.
You can do anything at Zombo.com. Anything at all. The only limit is yourself.
This is my favourite website
Very niche here, but worth a look if you’re in the market for rechargeable batteries:
Crazy detailed benchmarks and technical analysis of flashlights, batteries, and chargers.
Now thats niche!
Is there an article on there about which one was best?
No; there isn’t really a “best”. It’s dependent on what application the batteries will be used for. A high capacity, low current cell will be good for something like a remote control. For a high current draw device, you’d want cells that have low internal resistance / better current flow, likely at the cost of total capacity.
Sounds really interesting, I’ll start working through his reviews
ooh I AM in the market. Ty!
Never have I ever felt so welcome.
To ZOMBO COM
Am I completely out of the loop here or do I simply not understand, what is happening here?
Anything and everything. The only limit is yourself. You can do anything at zombo.com!

I don’t know if it fits, but congrats, you’ve just reached the end of the internet. There’s nothing more to see.

Wow, kinda makes me wish I had a purpose for these…
If this website ever disappears from the internet it will herald the end of the world.
You win.
My go to etymology website.
Ha! I’be got a shortcut for that on my phone’s main page.
Saaaame, like every other day I hear a word and start guessing where it must’ve come from and then have to go check. Today it was cashmere (from Kashmir) got it right!
Ps if you’re into this kinda thing check out the podcast lingthusiasm.
Pair it with sci-hub so you can actually read the whole articles and not just abstracts.
I was sticking with the ‘one website’. Thanks for adding my second post. ;-)
Here’s another: https://libgen.is/ - Library Genesis

Curbside Classic a nice hobbyist site about Classic cars and related subjects. I go there every day, has a lot of extremely informative (but very niche) content
nice, do you know other such websites but about topics other than vintage cars … i think our internet today has become too boring as most people just visit the same 5 to 6 sites (YouTube , reddit , wiki , insta , twitter , and twitch) and call it a day … websites like these make me curious about the days when we had separate websites like these for such niche content
Cant think of anything off hand that niche that isnt car related. This site is much more general but has some great writing on it
The site that comes to mind is Ian’s Shoelace Website. The ultimate guide about shoelaces. The most impactful/important thing for me was Ian’s Knot, the fastest and most correct way to tie a shoe. I discovered this website in the mid-2000s and have been using his method since. Anyway, it’s a fun and comprehensive website about shoelaces. https://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/ianknot.htm
