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.

"BTW, I'm Archie."
What if you are using VIM and Arch ...
I'm using Vim on Arch but I'm vegetarian, not vegan. Anyway, that would be my order.
I use Gentoo.
I don't know what you say, but as a debian omnivore most people don't notice either.
You know, because the computer just works, looks a little different, kinda like a mac on top, but free, and powerful and stable under the hood.
See I value practicality and reliability, and also ease of use.
This applies to meals as well.
Sure I'll go vegan if I can, get free range stuff when I can afford it, but I'm not made of money and infinite free time, as one would have to be to be a morally consistent vegan.
Obviously I'm vegan so it's not that wired I start a conversation with btw
