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.

Why are you going right so much more than left
I mean, if you think about it you tend to go right in 2d games, so I'm guessing he's a fan
I mean I usually either play car games using the controller (BeamNG mostly), or I play 2d stuff (Terraria, Stardew Valley), and rarely FPS games (CS2)
My bad, didn't explain it well in my initial comment
I broke my A and S keys when cleaning: because the WASD keys on these keyboards are transparent, I could see all the hairs or dirt under them and once every 4 months let's say, I was pulling them off
And one day they didn't wanna reliably clip back in place anymore
So now I have Right Ctrl on A and Right FN on S to replace the keycaps
So, they're basically newer keys in there, and also they are not transparent like A and S were
