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 is way more beautiful than i expected. amazing work!
to everyone reporting this post as "malware": 🤣 it really isn't.
(i read it carefully before running it... if you don't comprehend something like this, refraining from running it is a good choice.)
edit: lmao at the downvotes! For fun I ported it to Python... this version produces identical output to the original, but stops after a couple thousand seconds instead of running forever. and it is sadly 36 bytes longer.
(maybe the python version helps convince a few people it isn't malware?)
A screencap on peertube would convince me it does not blow my ears off.
