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.

What's the alternative to doing this? Is it safer to read the script first and then execute it as
sh ./install.sh?
Read the official docs to build from source.
I have a great deal to learn…
Do you listen to Linux Unplugged podcast? They just mentioned this lol
Thank you! I shall start listening!
And if you don't listen to LUP, you should really listen to LUP. And all the other Jupiter podcasts.
Looks like a pretty straightforward install! And a fun project to have a personal message space with friends. It includes the ability to launch gameoso you could maybe set it up as a personal lobby for gaming buddies.
I’m ready to do something lower tech — retro.
I’m a big fan of this old BBS game called Space Trader — I loved it. Hoping to get one going.
It's a good idea. I recommend it.
