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 thank gosh! Will certainly be happy to see that.

Now if only I could find a way to fix the weird rendering issue that happens with Electron apps... and by a similar nature, screen sharing in Discord (on a whole screen-basis, rather than just only XWayland apps). Couldn't get that to work even with xwaylandvideobridge. But, those aren't KDE specific issues.

I'm looking forward to the day I get to eventually just move off of Nvidia hardware.

I accidentally ordered my Nvidia card. I had the one I'd been recommended open in a tab so I could compare AMD cards to it and ordered the wrong one! Instead of doing what I should have done and returning it and ordering the AMD, I thought how bad can it be? Well now I know!
