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.

But well, if that helps, look at the bright side: while it's true that it'll almost never give you problems, I think it's true that the time the problems will happen, they will be pretty hard to solve, so it might break very bad. That's great, isn't it?
Don't tell me that this thing just cannot breaks. If that was even possible, that'd be tremendously evil.
bro, trust me i tried to break it, i booted without kernel parameters, my system didn't even had a root partition, shit was craze, and it didn't have a /home, rolled back just fine
-rebase from different fedora versions, i couldn't even login because of kernel versions(yeah even trying to login as root didn't work)
but, i read a history that happened a bug in ostree, in the early days, and the devs needed to ask the users to fix it manually, but was when in the start of silverblue
Bro how about this? Sounds pretty interesting to me
