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.

I like the word, it fits well with biased which is approximately opposite
My least favourite new word is 'doom scrolling' which is now used to mean "scrolling internet feeds mindlessly" where it originally meant "constantly refreshing the internet feed in the hope the result of the American presidential election will change"
I'd be happy if it was used in another doomy context
