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.

Selection of my fish abbreviations for comfy terminal creatures:
I maybe steal your rust aliases What is bacon by the way?
Bacon is just compiler output but it "stays open" in your terminal and refreshes after you save your file; It is nice if you use something a bit minimal like vim without language server but you don't want to compile manually every time.
