If anything current hardware is <i>more</i> resilient to time than older hardware, though it is indeed much harder to fix, usually.<p>The software running the hardware making the hardware slower releases after releases might be another consideration, but it has nothing to do with the hardware…

Nice article, I think base only OpenBSD or NetBSD could fill the void. I lean a bit towards NetBSD only due to its cross-compiling.<p>Base system of two are very usable and rather lite.

I knew about Collapse and Dusk OS before, but never figured out a way to easily try them (obviously I have no related knowledge). Very interesting project anyway.

I was thinking LLMs are actually an incredible compression of human knowledge- if you can swing it, a decent model and a few GPUs would be amazingly handy to help rebuild civilization.
