That domain is such a blast from the past for me. I spent so many hours working on projects with free webhosting as a teen!<p>dang/HN: this domain should probably be added to the list where the subdomain is shown next to the title, since subdomains are users' webspaces. (Might be a good candidate for the public suffix list: "[DNS labels] under which Internet users can (or historically could) directly register names".)

I clicked on this fearing it was a "256 bytes of JS" (plus X GB of browser), and was pleasantly surprised it was actually 256 bytes.

Didn't run it (yet) but it looks nice. Great that some people are still able to optimize code! I'm wondering if this would run on actual hardware (VGA + a sound card supporting MPU401 emulation)
