From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Edit: For those who don't use Arch ~bytheway~, yay is an "AUR helper:" basically a frontend for our package manager that adds support for building packages from source.

Going to lock this version with versionlock and keep it permanently

How about just fork it, remove all previous tags and commits, then form a cult around the repo.

They say if you compile it at midnight the caves in Russia that are said to emanate the sound of hell starts sounding like a 56k modem.

I don't give a flying fuck about anything NT. They have more changes to that book than there are letters in it.

Don't get me wrong, I don't take the OT with any literality either but at least they didn't make edits like that so there really is some attribution that can be handed to the writers back in the day. Notably, that they actually wrote that. I don't really go any further than that though.

Do you know how we have knowledge of that level of accuracy in what we can read today?

Also, that, because I do have zero belief in anything, ever. That's like ~~paying~~ donating to a guy to rape your kids. Literally.
