I feel like I found some forgotten page on the MasterCard website

[aleteoryx@labyrinth.zone]

@eloy i like how there are at least 3 different subsystems that each outbound link goes to. this was the one part of the site whose implementation wasn't a total clusterfuck

[vincent@knuddelweide.de]

@tris@tacobelllabs.net @eloy@hsnl.social JavaScript returning 126 for new Date().getYear() is certainly a choice ​​

[can@haz.pink]

@eloy the Y2K-bug is a nice touch!

[hearts@pharmacy.puppygirl.icu]

@eloy i wouldn't be surprised if it's somehow load-bearing if they haven't taken it down at this point

[c0debabe@masto.hackers.town]

@eloy oh that's a gem of a find, well done

[groupnebula563@mastodon.social]

@eloy this one’s also pretty good: https://www.mastercard.com/general/zero_liability.html

[groupnebula563@mastodon.social]

@eloy oh god i figured out how to find them all. the floodgates have opened https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Amastercard.com+%221994-126%22

[ix9@social.vivaldi.net]

@eloy Is this from the WayBack Machine? This is nuts! 1994

[rk@mastodon.well.com]

@eloy

The 126 thing is telling.

@eloy

I am studying the ancient texts to unlock their secrets

[cdespinosa@mastodon.social]

@eloy of course 94+(years since 1994) is going to work for five years, and we’ll certainly rewrite the page if not delete it entirely well before then

[justjanne@mastodon.decentralised.chat]

@eloy and it's so easy to read and loads so fast! I miss old websites, they were so much better.

@eloy ~2005 by the looks of it?

@eloy it also has the Y2K bug, namely copyright 1994-126.

[vt52@ioc.exchange]

@eloy so what do we think?

- existence forgotten to the depths of time
- unremovable due to indecipherable permissions
- lost admin password
- inscrutably loadbearing URL
