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.
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.

I truly don’t think that’s true. If anything current hardware is more resilient to time than older hardware, though it is indeed much harder to fix, usually.
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…
