Today I typed the last command on my long-running server (serving www.unixer.de since 2006 until yesterday):
benten ~ $ uptime 01:31:47 up 676 days, 16:20, 5 users, load average: 2.08, 1.42, 1.39 benten ~ $ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda & benten ~ $ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdb & benten ~ $ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdc &
This machine was an old decommissioned cluster node (well, a result of
combining two half-working nodes) and served me since 2006 (seven
years!) very well. Today, it was shut off.
It’s nearly historic (single-core!):
