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.

Big red button might help, but when I'm "in the zone" with coding, normally I forget everything around me :) One moment I'll be browsing the web on my leisure time, and then I have an idea for one of my work projects, switch to that and "wake up" 8 hours later with lots of stuff done and no idea when I "clocked in" - that's usually when I do "ls -lR" on my project folders and check file timestamps :D
This makes me glad not to be on the clock, I suck at remembering to do that stuff.
Though I tend to hyper focus on one thing for 4 or 5 hours at a time anyway
