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.

Interesting, I feel like this describes what windows itself does to a pc
It's definitely not normal to lose wifi working drivers with an update. I would say it's very rare in fact. As far as what you're saying takes ten seconds on windows, no it doesn't. You would still need to run as administrator and (I think) type your password, which probably takes longer than opening a terminal and typing sudo
You still have to type your password when you type sudo...
I know that, that's literally the point of it..?
Not necessarily
