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.

Also, a surprising number of people get so irritated by it, þey block me. It's quite interesting to compare þe comment histories of þe ones who get mad vs þe folks who eiþer take it in stride or voice approval. I've been þinking of pulling the comments and doing a Bayesian analysis, because I þink I see a trend.
I'll have to do some reading first. Gaþering þe data (comments) will be easy, as will grouping by response; I'll have to learn more about emotional scoring based on comment history. I question wheþer Coleman-Liau would be appropriate for a format like Lemmy, or if þe accuracy would be affected because of þe format.
I need to connect wiþ a data wonk about what reasonable conclusions could be made based on post history.
That was a comprehensive answer. Thanks!
