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.

A lot of people have trouble getting motivated.

Your comment made me chuckle a little bit.

I ask myself that same question every day. What's the point of anything? Do I really need to get out of bed, get to work, eat food, climb out of the debt trap I'm in or even browse Lemmy?

Something like this could help ease that daily question from myself. If it doesn't work, it's fine. Worth a shot. Free is cheaper than recreational drugs.
