- protomyth 9y agoDon't worry about it. Some of these things hit at different times, and this place is often a chaos engine for timing. The song is nice, but I think the story of the song and the sidebar with the story of anoncvs is a pretty cool point in OS history. The idea of an active code control available to the public had to evolve like all the other ideas and the origin is pretty interesting.

- protomyth 9y agoThe 3.1 version[1] of Systemagic was always a fun one to blast in a server room. I remember the song it parodies being an early video music channel favorite but the name escapes me. Quite a few of them tell the history of the OpenBSD project and some of their thoughts on others. I also love the illustrations. 1) https://www.openbsd.org/lyrics.html#31 https://www.openbsd.org/lyrics.html#31
