No I'm not using Kali for "hacking" I'm experimenting if I can play games on it and I guess my little experiment failed here, I never had a smooth experience with Debian before it always break itself when doing a system updates.

I think it's more of a result of OP conflating this with an "average" Debian experience. Who knows if Kali (downstream) or the user made a frankendebian, and who knows what they've done to their install before this log. Using Kali for an improper reason doesn't give a lot of bonus points in our trust that this is not user-induced.

Oh I don't disagree with this at all, and also most of the comments, thus far, are quite helpful and constructive. That being said I was just trying to add some levity to what I otherwise see as needlessly defensive dog piling. (But tbf, downvotes don't necessarily mean the same thing to everyone)

It could be both, but often I see downvotes used strongly when information is actually incorrect or misleading, regardless of whether the person is trying to be pleasant or not. I guess that upvotes on a post like this could be mistaken for agreement. If the OP was instead phrased as a question it probably wouldn't be downvoted.

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.
