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.

Well I'd argue vector image can represent a real circle but what's on the screen will never be one.
Also why is this on Lemmy Linux?
There are analog vector displays.
Ah yes indeed but there must be some imperfections down the line so not a Real circle, though we are getting closer.
In this sense, we don't have real rectangles or lines, either
So what I'm learning is nothing is real...
It's all cake.
