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.

Repeating my other reply verbatim yet again as you keep copying and pasting the same exact comment:

First, to be clear, this isn't so much "press" as a blog entry. Second, there are only so many mentions of "rust cultists" and "my rust" I can read in a blog before losing interest.

Ohh okay thanks for that friendly reply, I wanted to show this reply that's why I said it 3 times but ig that blog is wrong or opinionated.

Once was enough. Twice was suspicious. Three times seemed like a campaign.
