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.

the famous "This incident will be reported" error was briefly removed last year before being replaced with a less ominous version.
While it was funny, it probably is for the best. Especially if a kid uses the system it might legitimately scare the shit out of them lol
I wouldn't be surprised if a kid thought the police was gonna break in now
I noticed this, got so sad. It was one of the funniest ones for me. First time I got it I kinda laughed.
I'll never forget this one lmao
