- alice — something lives in here. She is silly, mischievous and almost never
useful on purpose, but she leaks hints about this site constantly because she cannot help it.
She is hand-written and instant by default.
alice --wakepulls a real small language model into your browser and runs it on your own GPU — nothing you type leaves your machine. She spools herself down after three minutes of silence and hands the VRAM back, then spools up again on your next word. Watch her do it: the loading bar is a light-cycle laying wall. - mud — THE GRID, a text adventure in a filesystem. You crashed. What is left of you is loose in the mount table. Twenty rooms, real shell verbs, one very matte black door.
- templeos — a second window opens underneath this one and it is white. Sixteen colours, 640×480, no rounded corners and no network stack, because that is what TempleOS is. Terry A. Davis wrote a complete 64-bit operating system, its compiler, its language and its games by himself over about a decade and put the whole thing in the public domain. Three of his games are in there under their real names — AfterEgypt, Varoom and CastleFrankenstein — as tributes, not as his code. Alice calls it her home and is unbearable about it.
Synapse Grid interrogation shell (build 1.79.0)
Nobody is legally required to answer any of this.
Type help for the list, alice to talk to whatever is living in here, mud to go and get lost in the filesystem, or templeos to open a window Alice insists is her house.
