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.

That is a forkbomb and you can't convince me otherwise

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 20 points 10 months ago

i dare you to run it

[–] SteveTech@programming.dev 2 points 10 months ago

I can't say it isn't a fork bomb, but it does happen to match IPv6 address with regex.

Ah, yes.

[–] Synthuir@lemmy.ml 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)
