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.

Because I know what I'm talking about, you trust me less? Sounds like a bad life decision. All you have to do is spend 5 seconds learning to confirm I'm correct. Don't just blindly trust comments on the Internet based on your feelings:

Hell...surely you're aware all Raspberry Pi's are arm64/aarch64, right? The original commentor just has zero idea WTF they are talking about with the Android nonsense.
Fair. I was running on like no sleep when I wrote that comment, so I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that. Thanks for the links.
