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.

I have a RTX 4060ti. What does this mean to me, when running Debian desktop OS? Is the driver no longer "BLOB" limited? Can we see full code at github?
(Don't get me wrong, I can compile kernels and code. I just don't understand the nuances of all these licenses. My eyes literally glaze over when people start talking about licensing, I know the flat OSS licenses but "dual GPL/MIT"? I'm falling asleep asking this!
