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.

Love the Framwork concept. I switched from a Framework (11th gen Inte, 12th batch iirc) to a Macbook Air M2 relatively recently. As much as I love the concept the Framework's short battery life, subpar speakers and annoyingly loud fan made me go with what is pretty much the polar opposite in the end. Definitely keeping an eye on Framework tho and hope the PC industry as a whole manages to catch up. The new mobile Ryzen chips are looking really promising! :)
