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 miss effort free gaming on windows too. It looks like they laid off everyone in that department and put everything in to AI and subscription begging which has made it a miserable experience lately. I had to click deceptively placed no buttons like 30 times just to get to the desktop so I could update the damned mobo rgb controller to detect and turn off the lights
