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.

Actually, at work I use Kubuntu and at home I use Arch Linux.
Guess which install borks out of nowhere automatically because od auto-updates? Exactly. Kubuntu.
Arch is pretty solid and stable. Never broke, never reinstalled unlike most Ubuntu distros
Edit: oh, you aren't even OP. But I see I triggered you. And you have repeated the same you are saying in the parallel comment? Are you here reading all comments to this specific comment?
