Hm, maybe posting this to HN wasn't the best idea...?
Basically you don't hear about them any more because it's all Beowulf clusters now.

<h1>Casio fx-9750GII Webserver</h1><br>
Welcome!
This page is hosted on an Casio fx-9750GII graphical calculator, running a SuperH SH4 processor.<br>
It's running a port of the uIP TCP/IP stack, using SLIP over the 3pin 2.5mm serial port.<br>

I guess it's a valid decision decision, but pretty crappy for anyone who needs them.
Also even with the focus outline disabled on other sites, I am able to navigate with the keyboard to text input fields. OP's site doesn't have any input fields so not sure why they have that CSS in place as I don't think it's doing anything.
But if your comment is a general opinion of websites in general, then yea, I see what you mean.

Correct, but for a user with vision problems, the focus outline lets them see what has focus. CSS doesn't stop them from inputting values.
Focus styles are essential and should not be removed as a best practice (in general, this is a very small site).
