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.

Actually, I never witnessed change-org ever changed something.
Well it makes people feel like they've done something.
Exactly. If the effort is low the result likely will be as well.
Which is worse than useless since it renovated the impetus to do anything else.
It's like when you tell everyone your new years resolution and they all go "wow you're really courageous, well done on turning the new leaf". Your brain goes "ok, got my recompense for that, no need to put more effort in there" and bye bye resolution.
Let’s change that. Please sing this change-org petition. /s
True!
