Wow those bugs are really something

Are these available as an npm package? Would make for a great April Fools prank

It would be great if he put those around all the ads so we could visually see the infestation.
ycombinatrix•3m ago
The insects are great. Would love if I could burn them like other page elements.

My personal website breaks this each time (jasoneckert.github.io), which is both a letdown and a pleasant surprise.
jshchnz•2h ago
so much traffic... looks like it's working now! https://www.fuckupmysite.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fjasoneckert....

Are we sure this isn't just Trump's usual webdesign?

Comic Sans does not seem like a joke there, it is somehow fitting.

Many years ago the agency I worked for was tasked with delivering a new website for a major UK brand. The hipster London marketing agency we had to work alongside pushed so many garish ideas that I ended up creating a jQuery plugin called "disco mode". It set a timer and on every tick would select a random element on the page and apply a random effect. Slowly the UI would disintegrate into a maddening, incoherent mess of clashing colours and animations, and then there was also the plugin I mentioned.

I thought of this the instant I saw the OP, I remember being in school and causing chaos with this, great memories.
yogorenapan•55m ago
Oh wow that brings back memories. I remember playing with this back in my middle school days
johnisgood•7m ago
Yes, I remember using it, call for my dad while I was hiding in my room, he could see that I broke my monitor. :D

This reminds me of the Katamari Hack back in the day when bookmarklets were more popular. Surprised that it's still fully functional including the music considering it was released in 2011!

Seems to be unable to mess itself up:

Don't know whether this is failure or resilience.

Every AI project if the breaks aren't pumped on the regular. Creator's inspiration?
jshchnz•40m ago
probably unsurprisingly, everything on this site was 100% vibe coded
tonymet•43m ago
funny, when I loaded Ticketmaster, nothing happened...
jshchnz•41m ago
ugh yeah, seems like they have some over the top security stuff to prevent this. saw this with a lot of financial sites too. probably ways around it but probably not worth the time for a fun project like this :)
ycombinatrix•13m ago
This project seems to be using Chrome to load the pages through Puppeteer.

Ticketmaster can easily check `if(navigator.webdriver)` before loading the page. I don't think that can be fixed without recompiling the browser. thank you Google, very cool.

docsaintly•29m ago
I wish fewer sites would resort to 4 letter words in their titles to grab attention. These days, a title like this makes me assume the product itself is not interesting enough for me to look at.
ycombinatrix•24m ago
to be fair, it is a funny meme website, not a product.

to me, it's giving "just fuck me up" vibes https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/the-barber

docsaintly•21m ago
I get the draw, and it's amusing, and it works; but I come here for tech topics - not clickbait. It's always nice to see the -1's to remind me that I'm barely a fit for this site! :D
