There has been a lot of talk lately about people getting the PS5 to run Linux, and what it could mean for piracy on the system. Weirdly enough, this isn't the first time we've seen Sony's console run a Linux kernel. The PS3 was one such example, and it was so good that people even chained together thousands of the consoles to create a supercomputer.
