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.

Just reading, my first instinct was, "Yank the fucking cable, oh lawd!!!"
I hope I would be that reactionary in the situation, but as you said, you were confused and panicked and the thought didn't occur until after. I guess I won't know ~~unless~~ until it happens to me one day.
Yes, this keyboard idea was quite a rollercoaster, because at first I blamed myself for not pulling it, but then I realized, that it wouldn't have helped even if I did, as Kanata keeps running just fine with the bound input device removed. 🙃
(Edit: Oh, sorry, you meant the power cable! 🤦♂️)
I think they meant pull the power cable out 😬
Oh, sorry, I must've been replying to a keyboard related comment earlier and got the context mixed up in my head! 🤦♂️
