Happy Birthday Linux!
I was reminded that on this day in 1991 Linus posted his Usenet message announcing his creation of a new hobby OS that he had been working on and looking for feedback. I know that I would not be where I am today if it were not for Linux and all the wonderful software distributions that use its kernel.
So a big “Thank You!” goes out to Linus and a “Happy 18th Birthday!” to Linux.
