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'll second that: every single issue I've had with any of the Pis that are around here have all been bad sd cards.
They're useful if you're using an OS that doesn't ever write to them, but as soon as you're using a full Linux distro or running software that is writing logs or data, they're going to fail and probably sooner than later and, of course, at the most annoying time possible because it's a computer and that's their thing.
OP mentioned a Minecraft server, iirc that can be pretty noisy in the logs.
Oof, and a minecraft server is also constantly writing the world state to disk which will 1000% kill a sd card in a hurry.
