...how it affected me?
10cc would sing: "i don't like kiwix - I LOVE IT !!"[1]
but it took me almost eight years to realize the hidden gift was a part of that white ribbon...
it was in 2012 when i took part in the WikiCon in Dornbirn, near the Swiss border. the nice wikimedia.ch-crew gave it to me as a welcoming gift: Kiwix 0.9 rc1 (brandnew in those days). right from the beginning of my it-activities i kept the old OS (like win2000 pro or XP pro 32-bit) on safe partitions of my laptops(Gericom, Medion, Samsung), netbooks(Asus Eee Pc; Samsung NC10) and barebones(shuttle xPC; Dell) - all running in multi-boot-mode. the unholy trinity which killed 20 years of hard work was then:
1) 2014 the sudden death of XP (caused by Microsoft)
2) 2016 the "DSGVO" (caused by the government)
3) 2018 the brutal end of coldfusion 5 (caused by Adobe)
so i had nothing more left than peer2peer-connections via ethernet between 2 offline-machines. that was not what i had dreamed of... but then came Eminem with "now this looks like a job for me"[2]: Kiwix...
i turned on my DELL optiplex fx160 (Windows embedded + xp pro 32), startet Kiwix by USB and typed 'purwin' into the searchmask - one article found (!). believe it or not, on en_wiki! it was Constructed Languages. note no.21: Dis is de niu esperânto: SIMPLISH! and i clicked on it. all of a sudden my firefox opened (i used to put my 127.0.0.1 in the etc/host to 'localhost AND to 'purwin.de'), and this CFML-application started immediately. a local en_wiki pointed to my local LAN!!
