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.

I always thought those whoe said susa instead of soos are wrong.

Suse stands for "Software und System-Entwicklung" https://linuxiac.com/opensuse/

Edit: Yes, she can still be wrong but then it's supported by the rest of susa's staff https://youtu.be/RsME20zXbQI&t=13

Don't get me started. For years people corrected me when I said LEE-nooks instead of Lennox. I finally gave up.

You f*d up at the part where you didn't start explaining in song, orchestra and all.

I'll admit that this approach did not occur to me. If it worked for genre television...

🎶 Bunnies aren't just cute like everybody supposes. They've got those hoppy legs and twitchy little noses. And what's with all the carrots? What do they need such good eyesight for anywayyyy? 🎶

Edit: To be perfectly clear, I've not looked at bunnies the same way since. I suppose we can add that to the list of the many crimes of Joss Whedon, somewhere after "mental and physical abuse of cast and crew" and "killing off Tara and Anya".
