What? I never knew that Linux & I were both born on August 26! (I'm older by a few years, though :)

You know you're young when you download a tarball and can find files with a timestamp older than you.

Yeah, especially that timestamp "31 Dec 1969" — seems to be all over the place.

I get people at work asking me about that on a weekly basis. I have the Picard facepalm printed in my cube.

Some people have to find operating systems with earlier epochs.

The date header of that message says it was sent 25th of August:

    Date: 25 Aug 91 20:57:08 GMT

Which happens to be my birthday, except I'm 8 years older. :)

Argggggh! Damn You!

Happy Birthday :)

Hey, it's my birthday too. Happy birthday!

Same to you, my friend. Although hpaavola above is stealing some of our joy :)
