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 run an Ubuntu laptop for work [system engineer] by choice. I have to write stuff and interact with the 200 or so linux servers daily. For work, it's perfect. For doing anything corporate, it's a fucking nightmare. Thankfully the good outweighs the bad but stuff like VPNs, remote desktop, all that stuff works terribly.
