Unix is often called the “father of operating systems” because it pioneered many fundamental concepts that became foundational for modern operating systems. Developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s at AT&T's Bell Labs, Unix introduced innovations that shaped the future of OS design.
@itsfoss kinda hilarious that the price was for "enhancing american leadership in the information age" instead of, you know, shaping the world we're living now.
