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 play dota 2, community can be toxic, but if you are not a snowflake or know how to use the mute button, its good.
I played this game way before dota 2, when it was a Warcraft 3 map, so I have been playing dota for about 18 years. Can confirm, it is addictive, and I believe it is one of the best competitive games out there.
