WordPress does not like working with darknets due to something, something. What were those somethings? I’ve already forgotten.

However, it led me on a new journey to create Eleventy7.net: not the hip Christian rock band or anything to do with The Hobbit, but a website dedicated to the old.

I’ll essentially be boiling McRetro.net down into an HTML 2.0-compatible site in my spare, spare time.

That’s before HTML 3.2, let alone HTML 4.0 or 4.01.

You won’t find any fancy cascading style sheets there.

Just nice old code. Code that will work on your older computers, such as the Sega TeraDrive or even your IBM PS/2.

There’ll be a few links on the splash page, yes, it has a splash page, pointing to various other rebuilt websites from the past. I’ll try to keep them as old-school as possible so they remain compatible with older machines. For now though, you’ll need Netscape 3.x and a screen at 800x600, if you know what I mean! ;)

In the meantime, I’ll be trying to make the regular McRetro.net site, the new old-school site and the darknet version all coexist on the Raspberry Pi. Oh, and the darknet address should work now. WordPress really doesn’t like one site pretending to be two websites. SEO issues they all cried. It’s the freaking darknet. Does the darknet even have an SEO setup?

Figured I had to purge the Raspberry Pi of all that IRC server stuff I played around with anyway. Enjoy! :)
