100+ days of runtime on nearly 40 year old hardware not designed as a server exposed to all of the garbage coming in on port 80.
Remember, this is a home computer from the mid 1980s. This thing is way outside of it's duty cycle. And the software is holding up pretty well too, even during what is effectively a DoS attack on a DOS machine.

- tinus_hn 3y agoWell it’s about a computer from 40 years ago! That’s why I don’t see what’s so special; any computer from that era that still works today could easily run for a hundred days.
