That OpenLinux is a treasure. I love finding old computer relics like that. I hope you manage to get it working!
Old monitors can go out like people with chronic diseases sometimes. I had one that would stop working in all sorts of ways and then start working again without issue the next day or after being rebooted over and over.
It's genuinely hard to say whether this photo has been post-processed or the place does indeed look like that. Very charmy.
The mountains are calling and I must go back home to finish an annoying job
@strangecrust that sucks... but the mountains will wait for you ;)
