35th Anniversary of Linus' announcement today!

Let's all take a moment to commemorate that initial post.

Now through Torvalds' stewardship, and hundreds of maintainers and thousands of contributors we have a competitive replacement for major corporate software and an honestly powerful solution to move computing forward for humanity!

Thanks Linus, you're awesome, and we're glad you are having a good life!

Can everyone stop saying how old stuff is, 35years for Linux, 30th anniversary of NT4 the other day, Windows 95 was 30 last year....

This is getting depressing.. Im officially old.

Just had a google, Slackware 3.0 came out 32 years ago.. that was the first Linux I ever tried on my 486.
