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.

Guys, we're losing big to mobile devices. Although I'm glad Australia is still going strong at 12% desktop computer.
65.2% (globally) are Android so technically we're winning!
Kinda hard to use your desktop in bed or hiding in the bathroom.
I wish I could run Linux on my phone.
Something something Android is Linux 😅
Maybe you can
Oh neat, I'll have to look into this.
Tablet pornography must be nice.
That seems like someone who made a plan, and then lived out their best evening.
I imagine those tablet Pornhub users probably prepared themselves a nice mixed drink, set out some snacks, and got all cozy in a bathrobe first.
Tablet pornhub sounds like some kind of intentional self care.
