Huh, the Internet King. I wonder if he can provide faster nudity.

Janeway, less the final brassiere
That guy looks like Dr. Kleiner from Half Life 2.
Just without the ridiculous tie.
Came here to say this
What you're referring to as Linux is actually SystemD/GRUB/GNU/Linux/Wayland+Pipewire+XDG/{Desktop Environment | Window Manager Stack}
Far more valid than Stallman's coat-tailing.
Imagine thinking that the guy who invented the concept of Free Software and built an entire compiler toolchain and userspace is "coat-tailing" on the guy who only made a kernel.

I use LinuSystemWaylanKDEdDx btw
GNU/Linux/Apt/Flatpak/Snap/AppImage/Wayland/Systemd/Firefox/KDE/Pipewire/SDDM/Libreoffice/Supertuxkart
Sure, Linus and Richard get praised for making GNU Linux. But when I tried to make by own, the zoo kicked me out of the water buffalo enclosure.
The hard part is getting the USB stick in.
Someone send this to Stallman, so he can later download, print and view it at his pleasure.
By now I'm fully convinced Stallman was right.
I bet life is a lot nicer without JavaScript.
Surely you mean LinuX11.
For some reason I read that in my head as luckynumbershlevin
I'll have what this person's having ππ€£
Jus' poppin' a li'l Lanax
It's not, because the x in Linus' Unix is not referring to the windowing system:
Linux Journal:Β Is it true that you suggested the name "UNIX" for the long ago OS, Multics? What does that word mean?
Brian Kernighan:Β Yes, long ago. Multics was an acronym for something like Multiplexed Information and Computing Service, and it was big and complicated because it had many of everything. I suggested Unics for Ken's new system, because it was small and had at most one of anything. (Multi and uni are both Latin roots, so it was a very weak pun.) Someone else spelled it with the letter X; no one can remember who.
I know one guy who likes putting the letter X everywhere...
DMX?
So that's what his name means. Display Manager for X11.
Brian Kernighan's book UNIX: A History and a Memoir is a great read for anyone interested in the history of computing.
LinUX like Linus User Experience?
We should call it Freax as it was intended.
Freawayland
America is that you?
The best kind of correct :D
I agree, GNU/Linux is awkward and dumb.
So I just call it "GNU."
What should I call it, when there isn't anything GNU installed? Uutils? Llvm?
NU(Not Unix)
Are you Gnu here?
what's about linuXorg?
