i remember when i first set up my /. account - with my brand-new UNIX cert and my first sysadmin job, it was pretty cool to find a site that catered to the *NIX mentality back in the day. Even if i was one of the 'new' users of the time period, undoubtedly part of the 'boom' crowd from exposure on Wired or something. I think I was actually referred to the site by my cert instructor, who was a huge linux fan (yggdrasil FTW, according to him).
I don't post on /. much any more - things have changed so much since those olden times, and I've just become even more cranky and cynical and have finally given up on the GPL/BSD flamewar. /. is still the first site I hit up when I begin my daily slog across the Internet, though.
Thanks Taco - /. has certainly changed as the times have changed but I don't think that's a bad thing; thanks for setting things up and keeping 'em running for so long.
I don't post on
Thanks Taco -
