Today is Ubuntu's 19th birthday! Yes, you read that right: nine-freakin’-teenth. October 20, 2004 was when Ubuntu 4.10 arrived, codenamed 'Warty Warthog'
The Internet Archive exists thanks to Ubuntu and the Linux communities
The Internet Archive is unquestionably one of the most useful sites on the web. The Wayback Machine makes it possible to find snapshots of most websites at any given point in their history, and the archive itself is also home to a wealth of books, magazines, games, software, movies and more.
You probably don’t give too much thought (or any thought for that matter) to the day-to-day running of the archive, but it relies on a long-term support server distribution of Ubuntu Linux and everything on its servers (with the possible exception of the JP2 compression library) is free and open-source software.
