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 take the approach of settling into a distro then getting bored and messing with stuff I shouldn't (at least on a daily driver) and reinstalling out of necessity, sometimes changing distros as well.
Smashing something with a club and and sifting through the pieces to find out why it broke is the best way to learn. Its literally primal human instinct.
