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.

Shame, it seems an apt issue caused him multiple problems.

It prevented him from setting up Davinci Resolve, though honestly that probably wouldn’t have worked out well anyways.

He also wasn’t able to install the deb of kdenlive, but at least the snap version worked for him.

It's interesting but I didn't watch and share this as a serious review. I posted it for the couple of chuckles I got out of 'The power of sudo compels you' and 'God only has ten commands'. Sam's a funny guy.

I would've liked to see him try mint instead. Less fluff, and hopefully that would've gone better for him.
