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.

'Containerized' would be more accurate.

Both are incredibly stupid attempts to convince people they need something they don't.

You all should look into a 'blue ocean' business strategy. Lots of shitty businessmen are constantly trying to push 'new' things and have a vested interest in convincing laymen of their necessity.

Needs are born from solving problems, not making them.
