Side note: I have been using Free Software and GNU/Linux for approximately half of my entire lifetime now.
@jalcine it's kind of a weird thing to realize! We've watched an entire ecosystem reinvent itself several times over.
@deadsuperhero seriously! so many times I just hold back my thoughts b/c of that background
@deadsuperhero I had to think about that and it's the same for me, over half my lifetime!
I think you were a toddler then, so now I feel old.
@deadsuperhero GNU is life my mans.
@deadsuperhero Cool! I’m now on year 25 (started in 1993). That’s 52.1% of my lifetime :)
@jwildeboer That's a pretty good optimization!
@jwildeboer @deadsuperhero Crap. I first got my hands on a TurboLinux CD in 1994? 1995? So it won't be half my life for another ten years *sob*
@deadsuperhero yoooo almost same I think? Like since 2006, 2007
