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.

Oh, these long-awaited arm laptops are designed for high TDP and have active cooling. I don't see why to choose them over Intel/AMD in that case.
Depends on the specifics. My high-end MacBook Pro uses active cooling, but in practice it almost never comes on. It's wayyyyy more efficient than the previous Intel gen.
A week or two ago, I accidentally left a Python process running using 100% of a single core. I didn't even notice for several hours, until it ate up all my RAM. On on Intel laptop the fan would've let me know in like two minutes.
I don't think Qualcomm's actually caught up to Apple yet, but it's getting close. It's good to see more competition.
Plus it's landed like, what, a couple of weeks before a new set of AMD CPUs?
I think people are about to have a rude awakening. ARM isn't magic. ISA doesn't matter a huge amount.
