random lab: Identity Flow Visualizer · Walk a SAML or OIDC login step by step: decode every redirect, token, and validation.Route & Longest-Prefix-Match Visualizer · Forward an address through an editable routing table.TCP Handshake Animator · Walk the TCP state machine one segment at a time, and watch both endpoints change state.TLS Handshake Inspector · Step a TLS 1.3 handshake, decode the cipher suite, and walk the whole HKDF key schedule.Cryptography Lab · A 12-tab lab, Vigenère to Enigma: classical ciphers, modern primitives, hashes and KDFs.Hash Avalanche Visualizer · See the hash avalanche effect: how a one-character change flips half the output bits.Steganography Laboratory · Read the bit planes of a file, get a χ² verdict on hidden data, and embed or extract a payload.Compression Explorer · Step a greedy LZ77 encoder byte by byte: see the window, matches, and the size it saves.Formal Logic Compendium · Build a formula from pickers: full truth table, tableau and verdict, quantifiers in a finite model, checked proofs, and modal logic on a frame.Git DAG Simulator · Run commit, branch, checkout and merge, and watch the commit graph each one builds.PM-16 Micro-CPU · Assemble, single-step and watch a 16-bit CPU run. Predict the flag change before you step.Unix Signal Visualizer · Send signals to a process tree and watch them handled, ignored, blocked, or take default action.Design System Lab · Take the site's own visual/colour design system apart.Keyboard Shortcut Trainer · Drill shortcuts across application profiles: perform the task, get graded. Improve.
random toy: Drift · A seeded, animated particle field. Type a seed to reshape it.Lighthouse Keeper · A seashore day in twenty-four minutes: a turning beam, drifting weather, a watch digest.Matrix Digital Rain · Seeded columns of glyphs falling with bright heads and decaying trails.Night Train · A seeded, endless night journey past procedural landscapes, weather, stations, and tunnels.Office After Midnight · A seeded empty night office on security cameras, with rare unexplained events.Packet Aquarium · A seeded ambient tank where synthetic network traffic swims as protocol species.Snow Globe · A seeded glass globe you furnish from a workshop palette; shake it and the flakes settle.Tiny Planet · A seed-driven miniature planet you observe from orbit: terrain, moons, eclipses.Windows · A seeded window onto a quiet, impossible place, with rare unhurried events.Ant Colony · A seeded ant colony: pheromone trails and an underground cutaway; add food, rocks, rain.Emoji Ecology · A seeded cellular-automaton ecology of plants, water, herbivores, and fire.Terminal Terrarium · A seeded terminal ecosystem where weather and light drive plants, fungi, and grazers.Chiptune Tracker · Compose on a step grid over four chip voices, play it, and export the WAV.Display Lab · A seeded historical-display exhibit with CRT scanlines, phosphor, and artifacts.Listening Port · A seeded deep-space radio observatory with a live spectrum, waterfall, and event log.Radio Between Stations · Tune a fictional FM band where a seed hides stations, with audio and saved bookmarks.Signal Lab · Generate DTMF, Bell MF and 2600 Hz, and watch the decoder name the tones back.Weather Machine · A seeded atmospheric console whose dials drive the sky, clouds, wind, and precipitation.Cyberpunk Terminal · A seeded synthetic network you explore from a prompt: missions drawn from a pool.Data Centre Dungeon · Work a night shift on a seeded floor: triage incidents, dispatch one crew, read the report.Pipeline Factory · Build a Unix text pipeline over a seeded log: see rows shrink, get the command.Space Station Builder · Build a cosy orbital station from a palette of modules; a comfort readout describes it.Treehouse Architect · Build a treehouse on a seeded tree's branch anchors; a structural readout rates it.ASCII Banner · Turn text into a five-row ASCII-art banner.Entropy Fountain · A seeded, deterministic fountain of bytes: the same seed replays the same spray.Hash Landscape · A deterministic decorative landscape generated from a text's SHA-256 digest.Hashprint · A deterministic, symmetric identicon generated from any text.Hourglass & Focus Timer · A tactile hourglass countdown / Pomodoro / count-up timer.
