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 know what you mean, but I immediately heard it different. It's something we should be asking daily, just to make sure they have what they need. Are trans women okay? Are trans men okay? What do you need? I have a sympathetic ear and bourbon; how can I help?

I am a male, yet I am weirdly offended by the adjective "female"..

"Female" is fine as an adjective, just don't use it (or "male") as a noun.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago

It should work fine in OP's sentence, but sadly the word's been ruined... A while back I heard someone over 40 use it as a noun in real life. 🫤

And she has a cute baby switch. The switch knows nothing. Not even ABCs. Just knows to be little and nap.

Cyb3rMaddy does more cyber security content, but she has a fair bit of Linux content too, same with LaurieWired.

VeronicaExplains is my favorite for pure Linux content.
