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.

are nice. Palm rejection for the touchscreen works fine on my Debian Linux, ThinkPad Yoga. I'm not sure if I configured it or it does that out-of-the-box. Keyboard and mouse seem to be deactivated by hardware once i fold it over.
If you're a nerd you could also learn LaTeX to take notes. I know a few people who got crazy fast typing maths that way. I didn't, took notes during a lecture with a pen and did quite some of my assignments with LaTeX.
Thanks for the comment, I use latex already for my reading notes but I'm too slow for the lectures. Also my profs like drawing a lot hahah.
Drawing with tikz in real time would be a baller move!
Thanks for suggesting RNote, i always use Xournal++ to take notes, but there are some problems and RNote seems to work much nicer with gestures. The only thing that i am missing is an option for saving pen configuration to easily switch between a black pen and a yellow marker.
