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's just it: they're the same thing

A youtube video and a podcast are the same thing...? This is the logic you want to go with? At this point I think it's pretty clear you're being irrational and I cannot reason you out of a position you didn't reason yourself into. Have a nice day.

Your response is a common one I have seen time and again when they are trying to bow out while saving face. It's not subtle.

Simple question: can you listen to music on YouTube? Followup question: is it still a video if the content is only the song? What would you call it?

I sincerely hope you learned something today and will be less of a pedant online. Cheers.
