what captures? What am I looking at here?
Pretty sure that's the internet archive which takes snapshots of websites.
You're looking at the website x.com waaaay back in 1997, where they said they aren't nearly the worst website on the internet. As opposed to now, where it is a cesspool of toxicity.
What was x.com back then? Porn?
x.com was PayPal before it got renamed and then the donain was unused until the twitter fiasko.
it was one of the first online only banks back around 2000
It was not nearly the worst place on the web!!!
