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.

AMD patches for preferred core (prefer those cores which can clock higher) are a mess and ended up not working because of a wrong if condition. Showing that no one at AMD even tested it before submitting. The programmer in the video complains about AMDs developers being incompetent and shows how it's fixed.
