Gentoo is the espresso you get when your coffee-obsessed friend with >$10k worth of barista equipment asks if you'd like a coffee. It's the best damn thing you've ever tasted, but by the time your friend has finished preparing and all the settings are dialed in, it's around midnight and you should have gone home hours ago

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.
