10 Hours of Windows 3D Maze

It took me over a decade to realize that it was a rat. I never looked too closely at it so I just thought it was a random brown blob they put in for whatever reason. I was extremely confused by it but didn't question it. It wasn't until last year I think that I happened on a video on yt about the maze, read the comments about a rat, was very confused, watched the video, and had an "OH, SO THAT'S WHAT THAT IS!!!!!!!!" moment. I'm still confused, because I don't get why they put a rat in there in the first place, but at least I know what it is now.

Did anyone else used to edit the wall and floor textures? That was like my dumb hobby as a child.

[@yordansic]

Huh. Watching this for a few minutes made me realize how the computer just keeps making right turns within each part of the maze until it’s been explored, and only making left turns when it’s the only turn available. And when it’s upside down, these turns are reversed. I always assumed it was just random.

[@AGKaiju]

Well... from what I gather, the rules of movement were as thus: -By default, you rotate left. -If you hit the large pyramid shape, the room will flip, and you rotate the same direction. -If you hit the large boulder shape, the room will flip, but your rotation will be reversed.

Looking back, we had no idea, and could never have predicted, the ways in which the Internet would become the de facto medium of communication for the entire planet. There was novelty, there was the gilded hope that tech would unite us, bring all of us together, permitting us to speak at a fraction of the speed of light. What we did not anticipate was the ways in which the world wide web would be abused by bad-faith actors, the way the Internet would become saturated with advertisements, computer viruses, and the oldest venom of all: pure, unadulterated hatred. We took a communications tool and gave everyone equal access, but the savvy, the intelligent, and contemptuous decided to pump it full of bullshit as soon as they got a chance. Social media exacerbated the problem, and it metastasized into the chimera we now face. So it's good to look back sometimes at reminders of the hope before it yielded all to dread.
