This To That tells you what type of adhesive to use to glue different materials together. It’s handy for Halloween when suddenly you need to figure out how to attach vinyl to styrofoam or something (hot glue)
Useless in every country except one though. Never heard of these brands
A small instance of USDefaultism, but I appriciate OP’s thought.
Bonus points is you can host yourself with docker. It has a bunch of handy tools for computer related projects.
You can’t mention Erowid without mentioning similar organizations like Dancesafe, MAPS and Bluelight. I’m not being hyperbolic when I say that I am only here today because of those sites. I am literally where I am today because of my time on Bluelight.
I’m in my 40’s. Erowid has been with me since I was a teen. I don’t really know about the rest, but ty.

https://favicon.io/favicon-converter/ - Convert an image to a favicon file in many formats.
https://ninite.com/ - Easiest way to set up a new Windows PC with the latest common applications without toolbars, prompts, or anything like that. Not necessarily obscure but I like to peddle it.
https://www.printablepaper.net/ - Need a check register? Graph paper? Lined paper? College ruled or wide ruled? Dot paper? Calendars? If it’s on paper, chances are you can find it and print it here.
https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/ - Need a good bedtime story? This site is best read right before falling asleep.

FYI: Ninite has largely been superseded by Chocolatey
Chocolatey isn’t really made for the DIYer setting up their computer for a one-off install - for that I always recommend Ninite. Chocolatey is useful for enterprises and advanced DIYers though.
This site will show you how to tackle any stain.
Sadly, today I was greeted with this message: We have discontinued our stain solution website.
How much does the “textile world” change? How does a method of cleaning fabric become outdated? I have so many questions!
http://remove.bg is a website that makes removing backgrounds from photos or artwork a lot easier! I think it uses A.I or something, it’s been super helpful for me a couple times.
seirdy.one has this great index of google alternatives that can be used.
Anna’s Archive and z-library are the best way I’ve found to pirate books
Free Media Heck Yeah. The largest collection of Free stuff on the Internet
