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.

Quite sad actually, that you can't just use laptop displays as external displays.
Well you can, but there only are quite hacky approaches like
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
a laptop that supports it
display control board to turn the siplay into an external monitor
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
You can, if the laptop supports VLink/DP-in, such as the Minisforum V3.
