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.

They should use this technology we used purely for uh... "Linux ISOs' back is the day.
BitTorrent.
afaik theyre parasitizing microsoft this way by compiling and distributing everything on github, makes it cheaper too. they have a way for local computers to distribute software as peers at least so you only really need to download it once if your server or w.e. runs it too
