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.

It's the year of the Linux desktop! /s
But seriously, I think I'm going to buy a SteamDeck.
Just got a steam deck and love it. I also got the official dock and can't believe how bad it is. I have to unplug it and my TV half the time to get the dock to connect correctly. It works fine for a few days, then stops. I've had picture issues and audio issues and even issues with the deck right after disconnecting it.
Yeah, same issues. I bought my dock during the summer steam sale and didn't use it much, but now that I''ve tried using it more I feel like I want to send it back and get a refund, but it might be too late. I keep hoping the issues will get fixed with firmware updates, but so far they haven't.
