On my list to experiment with is [Wayback/Archive] camerahacks/rpilocator-rss-feed:
This is the official rpilocator.com and hwlocator.com RSS feed reader and push notification scripts and Node-RED flows. The RSS feed is checked every minute and the script/flow sends a push notification when a product comes in stock.
Send ntfy, Pushbullet, Pushover or Gotify notifications to your device.
I only knew one of the above services, so here I have listed links to all of them:

Besides the August 2025 XKCD infrastructure dependency inspired cartoon on the right, the more recent and great [Wayback/Archive] XCKD: Dependency derivative below is a monumental piece as it combines the recent:

A while ago, I mentioned a 404-text simulating the Marvin the Paranoid Android as a side-line on a PlantUML post.
While categorising my ASCII art posts, I came across it, and it was published before I started archiving blog links in the Wayback Machine and Archive.is as much as possible.
Back during categorising, I added a few of those archived links, then made a note to research deeper.
So later, I got to that digging and did some digital spelunking, restored the text from an archived page and the underlying JavaScript code that simulated the text being typed on a “terminal”.
Then I did some more spelunking to the oldest usage I could find.
Here are the results:

A longer while I ago, I could not find a URL that would bring up the BKSY post pop-up.
A while ago, I found out there is a compose intent URL: you can even add a text parameter with URL-encoded content!

While doing some ASCII art blog-post drafts cleanup, I bumped into the (now deleted) [Wayback/Archive] Best 404 page ever? : r/ProgrammerHumor which pointed to the (also now deleted).
I got there via my (not deleted!) blog post Why I like PlantUML.
So I dug up the old archived copy of that PlantUML 404-page and made gist out of it.
I soon realised this was all encoded stuff, seemingly a mix of a ROT13 variation and some other shifting around.
Luckily the original page mentioned in the Reddit post was way easier, so I put that in a gist too.
Bot are below the blog-signature. Enjoy!
Oh, and the full text of course above the signature:

Just found out about the liquidation of [Wayback/Archive] ISOSTEEL Deutschland GmbH, Wiesbaden.
Their availability of spare caps were the reason for getting their thermos flasks and caps in the first place. As a bonus, their flashs had a wide opening as well. Much wider than the 25+ year old HEMA thermos flasks I used before (one of which the cap had died, the other one lost its vacuum):
The Isosteel caps are slowly dying, which means I need to find an alternative brand that provides spare parts and has a large flask opening, and kept liquid hot for 24 hours or cold for 48 hours. Just see their prior products at [Wayback/Archive] “ISOSTEEL – Isoliergefäße aus Edelstahl”.
Liquidation:
