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.

Try it, the worst thing that can happen is you waste a few hours, get mad, break your PC, and get a brain aneurysm

If you're able to get steamos installed on a regular PC, it's still gonna be immutable by default

It's not going to stay immutable for long when OP takes a bat to it
