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.

This involves travel. I don't know of anyone who is willing to leave their day job and just travel out of pocket without any compensation. I like the company, but this is doable if you're a YouTuber maybe? I don't see anyone doing it, honestly.
Brainwashing can achieve so many things. Surely people thinking paid FW employees are their friends and it's merely doing their friends a favor (and in return they get stickers, some to keep, most to hand out).
Good luck brainwashing me out of having to pay my bills and keeping a roof of my kids' heads. Lol
