Streaming radio from around the world: Radio Garden
Best language lessons short of full immersion: Language Transfer
Ive loved radio garden for a few years now. Its so fun to just click a random city in the world and just listen to whatever they are doing. I remember randomly listening to a music station from some island above scotland for an entire day and came out of it with like 10 bands i had never heard of before that are now a part of my rotation.
Don’t know if it’s still around and can’t remember the domain, but there was a site called World Radio Network that rebroadcast shortwave radio from around the world. Also great for language learning. The Polish Radio Service and Vatican Radio even had programs in Esperanto. A Finnish station had a Latin program, and of course so did Vatican Radio.
I’ve been using it as my homepage. It allows you to search Google and other engines without AI summaries, it gives you your IP address and just enough weather info without being obtuse, it loads quickly, and has a timer, stopwatch, scratchpad and conversion table for imperial to metric ect.
Ayyy it is so awesome to see how much Australians are contributing to the cyber space, I have lost count of the amount of times I have seen Aussies being mentioned in just this past week
It takes you to a random web 1.0 site that has somehow survived all this time.
And it led me to this site, a public voice-mail:
This is amazing, it took me to a US battleship website and then enrons website
A good chuck of these sites are autism special interest sites.
Hey, would you like every single schematic of Chernobyl with a through explanation? Sites like that are floating around in there.
And then a website about proving the existence of sea monsters…
Does Lemmy count?
I mean not in this thread, but generally yeah
turnmeintoagirl.com is a greatwebsite for all those transfems that still dont know they are trans.
Oh fuck oh shit I clicked it as a joke but it’s legit how do I go back my knob and bollocks went inside and won’t come back out!
According to the people in my office nobody knows about archive.org and I think it’s pretty cool.
This page on how mechanical watches work with really snappy interactive 3d bits that let you “feel” how the parts do their thing. And the dozens of other articles on other topics also on the site
despite being promoted on reddit quite a few times, nobody knows about lemmy. early on when reddit was banning on the explicit subs, some of us fled to an international forum that looks reddit, its relatively unknown, but it was discusisng “illicit stuff” i think it was an obscure canadia/EU sites, so the US cant force it to close down, sadly most of the people dispersed from that community long time ago.
another one as of recently is because of reddit bans, people fled to a forum that discuss how to evade it, and how they were banned from reddit.

It’s still usable, and the Spotify playlists are still there. If you like exploring music styles, this is for you. Warning, time will disappear.
Seems like they don’t update often? It’s still showing the Artemis II crew.
I honestly don’t know. I always used the website as a start site. But not for a year or two. And whenever i looked at it it was like one or two. Which kinda made it even funnier
I wouldn’t say unknown, as it’s a staple of the shortwave and ham radio communities, but websdr.org is a place where people stream software defined radio feeds from around the world. It’s not like a traditional internet radio station where you have an audio stream of a single station. You pick an SDR server hosted by a volunteer, and then you’re given a frequency input, modulation selection, and waterfall display as though you were listening to an actual shortwave radio.
I know it’s well-known because Eastern European stations were swamped during Russia’s initial invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

This is actually an instance of etherpad, which you can self host. Still cool
