    • @@oglothenerd Well it started as a research OS at Bell Labs. Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie was the founding fathers and it was a reaction to the over-complicated "Multics". Somewhere around the mid 70´s (IIRC). Thompson brought UNIX with him to Berkeley and it´s from that we got BSD UNIX. The rest is of course history and what "UNIX" is today depends on if you are a lawyer or a BSD geek. MacOS is very much UNIX. In fact, I think they managed to get to be the first BSD based OS to get UNIX certification somewhere around 10.4 or 10.5.

I recognize the first tune as Clang Clang Clang Goes the Trolley from that Judy Garland musical, but I've amassed so much of this stuff now it would be hard to pinpoint where I pulled it from. It's worth noting that YT usually gives me a copyright notice, but it doesn't matter since I don't monetize.
