When my Mac SE was 16 years old (in 2006), it was little more than a nostalgic bookend.

This #Thinkpad X200 that I'm typing on right now is 16 years old, and it's still daily-driveable (thanks to FOSS OSes like #OpenBSD), even to the point of editing this text in pixelfed in firefox 140-esr.

@rl_dane Nice, I always carry around an SSD with ventoy and both amd64 MX Linux and i386 antix, both with persistence and I like hitting random cyber cafes,
they tend to have hardware from that era and it's always fun to take them for a spin and see how far I can go with my daily work, which honestly with some swap on the SSD, even on slow USB speeds, and a bit of patience is enough for most of my activities
