Paul SomeoneElse<a href="https://alive.d34d.net/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://alive.d34d.net/</a> I am so stuck in making this C/OpenBSD based website. It's funny how much work it is to do things that are like trivial in Flask/PHP/Django etc. But I don't mind at all. I'm pretty confident I could run this on any low level hardware. Like I keep wanting a 486 or pentium 1 and it would probably run just fine. I guess the https might be the real expensive part :) Anywho, I added email sending: <a href="https://alive.d34d.net/emailtest/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://alive.d34d.net/emailtest/</a> Again you won't see anything, it sends it to me. I am afraid to put an email form on a public page that did anything more than email me. If you notice I put ?r=12312312-123123 url params on all of links that would have dynamic content. That is because I am using <a href="https://snac.d34d.net?t=links2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#links2</a> to an it will otherwise cache the pages. <a href="https://snac.d34d.net?t=openbsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenBSD</a> <a href="https://snac.d34d.net?t=c" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#C</a> <a href="https://snac.d34d.net?t=links2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#links2</a>
