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.

Start to use command line tools like mutt, links and so on. Okay, maybe not links, but mutt is still the best MUA around.
And whenever you are asked to get some data out of an excel sheet, export it to csv and use sed, awk, grep, wc, cut, uniq, sort, head, tail and stuff.
No, stuff is not a command afaik 😁
"Stuff" should be a compression tool, you tar it, then gz it, then stuff it down even further into tar.gz.stuff
