I’m sorry, and I don’t want to be disrespectful or rude, but as a person who has no clue about computers I am very surprised the creator of Linux is still alive. I somehow thought he is super old and probably dead by now or at least not using the internet. I’m so sorry for my ignorance.
Edit: Thank you everyone for the many interesting replies, I’ve learned a lot of random stuff which I greatly appreciate!

Dude wrote the first Linux kernel in grad school in his early-mid 20s. He’s like 50 something now.
Unix predates Linux by a bit, but most of those old guys made it to at least the Obama era.
Vint Cerf is still around, and he got to see himself portrayed in one of the Matrix films.
A hint is Unix time counts seconds from 1970-01-01
The people that invented the internet are still using it!
