seeing your second last image text, I think you’re making it seem like those who call GNU/Linux ate pretentious, which is most often not the case.

I say GNU/Linux for ideological reasons. Even GNU website itself says not to force people about it. Debian’s official name is Debian GNU/Linux. So, it’s not about “sounding smart.” there’s more to it.

Let’s make it lignux, but replace gnu with the Spanish word ñu and now it’s liñux

Dammit I cannot unsee it now.

I will keep saying Liñux now.

I would agree with the “Linux is an OS” people but they are the same ones who insist that Android isn’t Linux which is wrong.

Abnorc, to linuxmemes in big deal

It’s all semantics. In my mind, the OS is Tux Racer, and the kernel is Ubuntu.

I’ve worked with linux for 25 years. I use emacs.

Fuck stallman for coat-tailing something successful.

GJdan,

Linux is just a kernel. Emacs/Linux is the OS.

dukk,

It’s real.

GJdan,

Ooh, I didn’t know about that! But I think I’d be more surprised if it wasn’t real.

nixcamic, to linuxmemes in big deal

I think by lines of code I actually am running KDE/Firefox/GNU/Linux.

Linus is a tech youtuber

laurelraven,

That’s Sebastian, not Torvalds

LordPassionFruit,

Somewhere, Torvalds’ ears are burning

I’ve only been using Linux seriously for the last couple of years.

The way I see it, Linux is a kernel AND drivers, GNU is code that can be compiled to build a toolset used to daily-drive the kernel and a distribution is a assembly of kernel, drivers, tools and software (apps).

I’m sure that’s wrong but it makes sense to me.

Most drivers are part of the kernel, so yeah.

No idea what that is supposed to mean. GNU is a set of specific software made by the Free Software Foundation, see www.gnu.org/manual/blurbs

    Just to be clear:

    It was actually the young guy throwing the chair in the show. His text is supposed to be saying something angrily at that panel.

    laurelraven,

    Yeah, that part of this meme didn’t make sense to me because of that… Like, he goes from calmly saying no big deal to yelling and throwing a chair in the middle of it for no reason?

    HStone32, to linuxmemes in big deal

    Why do you guys insist on calling it GNU/Linux? It’d be like if you called your car a V8, and some weirdo insists you call it “transmission/V8”

    pewgar_seemsimandroid, to linuxmemes in big deal

    calm down before it becomes rocky linux

    LovePoson, to linuxmemes in big deal

    Exactly, like how android is not linux, it’s android
