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.

If you can't remember the IP address of every site you'd like to visit, you don't deserve the internet.

Pro tip, You don't have to remember it. I have all my favorite IPs in a nice address book, keep it in my drawer next to my passwords

This might be funnier than all those Facebook accounts with warnings about "I do not authorize anyone to use my photos!"

Because they're trying to copyright an internet comment that they posted on a service hosted by someone else, with a creative commons license attached. It's like a step up in knowing how shit works, but still not knowing enough.

If you really want ownership over what you say.... don't post it on the fucking internet.

Wait lol are people posting that to their comments to use it as claimed ownership? I did not realize that was the intent there

I thought this was a joke because this whole thread is satire. But holy shit, that person really uses that link on every single one of their posts. The delusion is real...
