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.

Instead of posting a video of aggregated news, why not just post the source links?
What do you mean? It’s a video made by The Linux Experiment, where he talks about the news.
A friendly tip: From what I've seen, it's definitely better to get the net installer to the openSUSE leap beta. And yeah, give Q4OS a try in a VM, Trinity is quite wonderful. XPQ4 as a proof of concept theme pack showcases amazingly what you can do theming-wise in Trinity.
