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.

Is there an easy way to silence every fuckdamn sanctimonious linux cultist from my lemmy experience?
Secondly, this update fucked linux just as bad as windows, but keep huffing your own farts. You seem to like it.
username... checks out?
Oh you really have no fucking clue. It's medical and no treatment has worked for more than a few weeks. it's only a matter of time before I am banned. Now imagine living with that for 4+ decades and being the butt of every thread's joke.
A real shame that can't be considered medical discrimination.
That sounds exhausting. I hope you find peace, one day.
I'd unsubscribe from !linux@lemmy.ml for a start.
I'm pretty sure this update didn't get pushed to linux endpoints, but sure, linux machines running the CrowdStrike driver are probably vulnerable to panicking on malformed config files. There are a lot of weirdos claiming this is a uniquely Windows issue.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !linux@lemmy.ml
Thanks for the tip, so glad Lemmy makes it easy to block communities.
Also: It seems everyone is claiming it didn't affect Linux but as part of our corporate cleanup yesterday, I had 8 linux boxes I needed to drive to the office to throw a head on and reset their iDrac so sure maybe they all just happened to fail at the same time but in my 2 years on this site we've never had more than 1 down at a time ever, and never for the same reason. I'm not the tech head of the site by any means and it certainly could be unrelated, but people with significantly greater experience than me in my org chalked this up to Crowdstrike.
