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 remember watching the first episode and he brought up a terminal and thinking "here we go" then..."holy shit... Those are real commands"
That and the explanations I was ready to laugh at for being terrible, then... Wait, no, those actually make sense
And it is also great television. For me personally, the best I've ever seen. Whoever reads this and hasn't seen it already: Do it! And watch it all! Some might think season 2 is a little slow (I still liked it), but season 3 is just incredible.
Yeah, I'll admit I kind of stalled out in season 2 but I've meant to go back and finish... It would be easier if my wife liked that sort of TV 😅 I'll just have to watch it alone 😭
This still makes me laugh:
