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 use pipe-viewer all the time to listen to tunes from YT on an old P4 rig.

Tuner seems pretty cool. I use ytmdl to search and download download music from YouTube music.

pv is like magic for writing iso’s or other large files to slow media. Has it finished? Is there data left to transfer? Now you know.

Ummm... I don't get the joke.

It wasn’t meant as one, I was thinking of a cli tool by the same name for viewing data in pipes!
