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.

You could look at the screen, but there’s also braille terminal support.
Some people do tts but that’s questionable, even if you don’t recognize that audiobooks aren’t reading, why burn power doing tts when you could just dl the mp3s instead and make it easier on yourself.
"don't recognize that audiobooks aren't reading"
What a cringe take.
If you could read youd be very upset by my reply.
