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.

Do they also mention Ubuntu Pro without being asked about it?
Finished with animal names. Try Crazy Carrot (LTS).
Are they selling snap beans?
Don't forget the Ubuntu restaurant.
Just be careful with the silverware, they can Snap if you're too rough.
you know the distro used a preexisting word and they liked the meaning. its like community or such in zulu.
I have a road near me that says sponsored by Ubuntu and I was freaking out. Turns out it was this same organization.
Ah yes, Ubuntu, African for “I can’t figure out how to install Debian.”
