🗓️ Tech Trivia

Douglas Engelbart received US patent 3,541,541 for the computer mouse, called so due to its tail-like cord. The first prototype appeared in 1964 and was demoed in 1968. It became commercially available with the Xerox 8010 Star in 1981. Apple included it with the Lisa in 1983, but it was the Macintosh 128K that made the mouse popular.

Pro FOSSer Daniel shares the latest update on their Linux from scratch project.

Progress Update On My Linux From Scratch ProjectSUCCESS!!!Have Gentoo and LFS booting on separate drives, with Gentoo controlling grub and booting first. LFS is booting on my Dell Inspiron 530 machine,with only 4GB of ram and a core2 CPU, so the skipping of the GCC-14.2.0 tests, had no issue for getting LFS to boot. Now comes buiding BLFS!!! Will try to get a photo of the boot menu screen!!!
