  • Of course it can. Out on OpenBSD and fire up a light duty webserver. We did it plenty 25 years ago, it’ll still work today.

    Using more advanced web stuff is the more interesting bit from his story.

    My favorite web server I built with a 486dx2 running Tom’s Root Boot. I attached a 7 drive SCSI disk array of CD ROM drives. I’d then mount Linux install disks into the web server tree as an install mirror. The system had no writable media. The floppy would be set into read only mode and it had no installed hard drive. It was a RO webserver. If it was hacked I could just reboot.




  • So, when the rich discovered that they could force us to have 80 hour work weeks because both adults in the home could work, prices suddenly climbed. Then, it turns out we used to rely on one of the adults in the home doing unpaid work (cooking, cleaning, shopping, house maintenance, and notably raising the children).

    Recognizing that women should be treated as humans is mandatory. They should be able to be single or be the breadwinner while their spouse stays home.

    Turning around and mandating that a family requires 80 hours per week of work to survive at the expense of everything else that made life worth living is crushing our ability to be humans with families.

    Of course, the looming population bust due to overworking everyone is making governments and the rich fearful of their safety and continued personal enrichment, but it would require taxing the rich and making governments work for us to solve the problem so it’s likely just going to be a huge mess with untold suffering instead of a graceful shift to a humanistic world with healthy lives.
