Created the Intel 4004, led development of the 8080.
Invented the Zilog z80, got fucked over by financiers, then invented the laptop touchpad, almost got fucked over by Logitech, lived happily ever after.
Also invented the gate aligned Metal Oxide Semiconductor. Legend of computer engineering.

How it started
How it’s going
Occam’s razor probably points to having access to graph paper in school and connecting corners.
Why an S?
That all has to do with Cthulu as S is widely known as his favorite letter.
I think so, just a relatively famous copypasta.
I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux

Also,
Dont cheap out on anything that keeps you off the ground. (Tires, shoes, mattress etc)
I’m not saying you have to do it but you can get the standard Microsoft fonts on Linux, they are just an extra download.

That’s what I think makes Star Trek unique. There are tons of other space laser shows, and lots of other moralistic scifi. What I like about Trek is that unless they are possessed by aliens, the crew of XYZ Starship are all incredibly competent at their jobs. And when they start acting stupid, 6 other crew members are immediately on it to pick up the slack.
The dream of Star Trek is working at a job where everyone you work with is ultra-qualified and hardworking. At least to me.
Can’t recommend KISS Launcher enough.
Well duh! Everyone knows that Goblins are Real
