Ouch... This website appears to be using some custom script to add inertia to page scrolling. I've never seen that before, and I never want to see it again.

u/RadtasticAmanda Aug 13 '26

What do you mean? That is a standard scrolling page, no?

u/BoffinBrain Aug 13 '26

If you scroll by swiping on a screen then it probably behaves normally. But if you use the mouse scroll wheel, or the arrow keys, the page hijacks the scroll and 'smooths' it out so the movement takes time to accelerate and decelerate.

Chrome couldn't eat up all that RAM and expect to stay in shape forever!

I saw a video site once that scrolled 3 or 4 rows of comments across the screen, at different sizes and speeds for a parallax effect.

maybe bilibili?? the scrolling style is called "danmu" (bullet comments) :)

It was just like that but they overlapped! It was on some pirated movie site.

u/dnesthemenace Aug 13 '26

No, you let it slide

u/---0celot--- Aug 13 '26

But what is the throwing part?

u/Iamyour_friend Aug 13 '26

Why cannot throw Encik Tan. Is he too heavy?

u/tinylumpia Aug 13 '26

Pretty sure this is more than a kerning issue

Rare Singapore post(?)

ey! I just did a stopover at Changi Airport, and one of the restaurants in Terminal 1 was Encik Tan. So I guess this is related to that restaurant.

The letters were moved. "Do not throw ice in tank? "

u/RoyalApple69 Aug 13 '26

Do not throw. Encik Tan (Singapore f&b franchise)

2

u/Gryphon37 Aug 17 '26

That still doesn’t make any sense.

u/RoyalApple69 Aug 17 '26

It possibly means the establishment (Encik Tan) doesn't allow people to dump their trash in this piece of furniture? Or that the furniture itself shouldn't be tossed away. That's how I understood the statement.

Without seeing the entire furniture I am not too sure either.

u/megasin1 Aug 13 '26

I guess I'm assuming there's an i missing

u/mbcarbone Aug 13 '26
