While porting 'Space Travel' to the PDP-7, Ken Thompson developed an operating system that became the foundation of Unix. It played a crucial role in the development of Unix.
Happy 53rd birthday, Unix!
@itsfoss and my mother would say that video games were worthless
@itsfoss also, rather ironic that gaming on UNIX/Linux is so niche
(TBF, there's a lot of BSD in consoles these days)
@itsfoss goodness. 39 of those i've been a UN*X administrator one way or another!
@pavsmith So cool!
Raise your hand if like me, you’re older than Unix.
@wendynather @itsfoss Surprised me, but I am!
@wendynather @itsfoss I am even older than the IBM 360’s original OS and Multics.
