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.

Add in regexr as well
That's a cool website, but maybe more for programmers or hackers (I don't mean evil people, just people that likes to use scripts).
Totally fair, and largely what I use it for, but it's also helpful in the term at times to just get out a weird regex for a weirder file operation you don't want to dork
Yeah right, it's worth to learn regex for those moments when you need to rename many files with weird and unstructured names.
