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.

One of the ones we had to take out. I'm still mad because it wasn't even that bad. It was a massive really long function that should have been refectored but kept getting put off. The comment was along the lines of

// TODO: take this fat bitch to the gym later.

Had to get removed because insensitive, well the function finally got refactored at least lol.
