A project I saw linked in the css post, and wanted to share, because I love the insanity.

      About 20 years ago I made a script that converts pictures to HTML tables. Back then RAM was a severe problem for this, and even for more powerful hardware browsers tended to just crash on larger pictures.

      I checked it again a few years later, and things looked way better. I guess using CSS it’d be rather trivial nowadays to do the same with a short video by just cycling through showing/hiding tables of each frame.

      I remember that too but it’s been so long I can’t remember if I dreamed it up. Do you happen to have the video/link?

    It’s a fairly common thing on onion websites, especially those who offer real-time interaction (e.g. some onion web-chats), they use this Transfer-Encoding: chunked method for fetching messages and content because JS is often discouraged and sometimes automatically blocked by onion-enabled navigators while surfing DW. HTML Forms with submit buttons are also used for this kind of interaction.
