Snap, originally developed for Ubuntu's mobile flavor of Linux, is a way of packaging an application with all the dependencies it needs to run in isolation. This means it's easier to run on any device, and the main operating system doesn't risk suffering a Total Inability To Support Usual Performance (TITSUP) if an application gets a dodgy upgrade.

I just love Linux humor.

Here as well. I still remember first reading what the gnu programmers named their first partitioning program: gnuparted.

When a coworker heard that one she immediately burst out laughing. :)
