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.

Won't someone please think of the billion-dollar megacorp's lost ad revenue!
The what? You do realize it's just some guy with 73 subscribers. He's not getting paid billions of dollars.
In fact, he's not getting a dime. YouTube doesn't pay until you have 1000 subs, so you are arguing that everyone should watch the video to support google.

No, I'm arguing that people shouldn't be so fucking allergic to watching videos on this damn forum.
