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.

Something that the society achieved in the last 150 years are two dogmas:
I'm kinda glad that questioning these puts one into a category of weirdos.
Gig workers and 2-2-3/7-7 shifters that are often forced to work on the off-days:
It's mostly "people younger than 16 should not have sex with people 18 or older", because legal age does not match age of consent. Even then, there are some regions that tend to disagree, most notably China, Central Europe and South American countries that put the lower bound to as low as 14. But it still leaves 18-year olds to be open for grooming by perverts of any age. And that, according to DHS, 8% of women had sex with somebody before reaching the age of 14, 41% had it before age of 16, and 67% before 18, putting any such "dogma" into further questioning.
Disclaimer: Not proposing anything here, just pointing that answers to those questions are far from being settled upon.
I question this, it's way too much labor with not enough compensation.
You've got the idea right
5/7 is an entitlement in the vast world

Majority of the world works 40hr or less which is basically a 5/7 schedule.
Just as the fact that sex with underage is considered a rape.
