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 almost want to see affordable laptops, that focus on ergonomics and dependability over cutting edge specs... the build quality is so important for using a device long term - i had a mac laptop that i bought for like 10 years ago and it amazingly still works...
I can only offer you garbage specs along with really shitty build quality for 1kEUR. It’s certified as ”not a direct fire hazard”. Take it or leave it. (/s)
I have high hopes for framework, but last time I was in the market they still had some things to resolve.
