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'm incorrect that my PC games didn't work on my PC?!
Shit. Thanks for clearing that up.
Your points about Vavle part of the same bullshit are worth raising, though.
But a unified store with reviews, a refund policy, , and installers that actually fucking worked was a really big deal, especially to those of us without bleeding edge hardware - which was most of us.
Edit: and don't start talking about gaming history to me, I was there for all of it. Pong didn't come with an installer, it came with the hardware. Turn those paddle knobs folks. Pong is still better than a lot of the shit you kids are playing.
You fake, everyone in the older days knows how the controls work. All except you younger people, you didn’t turn it, you slide it.

What you describe was the Arcade version, not the popular console versions.

Like the cx30 on the popular 8 bit home console Atari 2600 which was a knob you turn?
