HackerAlwaysWins personal node

hacker01.hack.beer

A personal website running from hacker01: an old Apple iMac brought back online, rebuilt with Debian Linux, Apache, SSH, and a stubborn refusal to waste working hardware.

It works.

hacker01 is online.

This page is served directly from the hacker01 machine. It started as the classic Apache default page, then became the foundation for a personal site, project log, blog, and public front door for whatever this machine becomes next.

About this site

This is not WordPress, not a third-party platform, and not a rented page builder. It is a simple hand-built website served by Apache from a real machine under my control. The goal is straightforward: keep it lightweight, readable, durable, and honest.

Machine hacker01, a 2009 Apple iMac running Debian Linux.
Purpose Personal website, project journal, experiments, notes, and future public pages.
Style Plain HTML, direct control, no unnecessary software stack.

Current mission

This server is being brought online one piece at a time. The first milestone was simple: make the hostname resolve, make Apache answer, and prove the page can be reached from the outside world.

root@hacker01:~# hostname
hacker01

root@hacker01:~# curl -I http://hacker01.hack.beer/
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: Apache/2.4.67 (Debian)

status: online
mode: personal site under construction
owner: HackerAlwaysWins

What this page is demonstrating

This page is intentionally simple, but it still demonstrates structured HTML, internal styling, responsive layout, content sections, callout boxes, and terminal-style blocks. The point is not to be flashy. The point is to prove the server works and establish a clean foundation for future pages.

This site is expected to stay lightweight. The upstream connection is modest, and that is fine. Text-first pages, small assets, and careful design are enough for the job.

Next

Future updates may include a project log, machine notes, personal writing, HAW Empire Network status pages, and experiments that fit the spirit of this machine: old hardware, direct ownership, and practical use.
