Dear ~club:
The Top 8 experiment is complete, and now it's time to compile all of the data. What did we learn? Well:
- We found out that it's apparently totally possible for a website to run on [solar energy](https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/). --- ~pk - We stumbled upon [a DnD podcast](http://friendsatthetable.net/), just as I was making progress on my backlog. --- ~schussat - We learned that it's important to [be prepared](https://www.universalhub.com/french-toast) for severe weather. --- ~pk - Some other neat stuff, too.
I encourage all ~clubbers to update their Top 8 every once in a while and share it with others. (Reply to this thread or the one from last week!) I had a lot of fun poking around the links you dug up, and I didn't even get through all of them. If you want to take a look at mine, [go here](https://tilde.club/~bradley/2019/12/24/weekly-webpage-workshops.html)
Well, ~club, the winter holidays are here. For me, that's Christmas and New Year's, but whatever you're celebrating, I hope it works out well for you. Where I grew up, one near-given at this time of year is snow. Only a few times was there a total lack of the white stuff on the ground when Christmas came, and a few times we even had snow falling on the actual day. It was some real Currier & Ives stuff.
Anyway, one of the things I miss about the old web is pixellated snow falling down the screen. Do you remember that? Little white circles dancing from top to bottom, getting in the way of whatever you came there to read or see. Granted, I think I'd get tired of it pretty quickly if it suddenly appeared everywhere, but right now the nostalgia is too strong to allow for silly things like facts.
~club, your task is to **make it snow on your webpage.** Animate it if you like, maybe even make it accumulate at the bottom of the screen if you're feeling fancy. Even a GIF of some snow falling will do. Just make it snowy and wholesome.
Good luck, ~club, and merry Christmas or whatever,
Bradley
