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.

More than 50% of Windows users have trouble entering my front door during a state I call unlocked. Unfortunately that isn't a joke, but there are extenuating circumstances.

I have a gif for this but I lost it, it goes along the lines of 'breaking into a Linux users house to install windows 10'
