  3. Ever wonder how the #FreeSoftware movement started? It began with a jammed printer 🖨️🚫

    ​In 1980, Richard Stallman couldn't improve the Xerox 9700's software because the code was closed. Frustrated that he couldn't make the printer alert users of a jam, he started the Free Software movement.

  8. A random link I came across reminded me that one of my FOSS projects' README file references all of the following:

    Tru64
    HP-UX
    Debian
    RedHat
    SuSE
    Ubuntu
    FreeBSD
    NetBSD
    Darwin

    x86
    AMD64
    Alpha
    PA-RISC
    Itanium
    PowerPC

    I would like to issue a decades-late "thank you" to Hewlett Packard for operating their "Test Drive" program, that allowed me to do test builds on all of those platforms I had no other access to. [1] I was sad when they discontinued it, even if it was a pretty niche thing at the time.

    I must have been one of about 3 people outside of Hewlett Packard, Intel, and Microsoft who'd ever bothered to try to build software on Itanium. [2]

    How many of the above phrases would elicit blank looks from newly-minted engineers and #CompSci people these days?

    [1] Meaning actual useful Hewlett Packard. The practically unrelated modern HP corporation can, of course, stick their overpriced, DRMed ink and toner in their paper-jam access holes.

    [2] a.k.a. "Itanic"
