linux distro devs put GNU on Linux, not GNU
Mmm. I'm not saavy with this kind of shit. I thought it was the other way around.
bet u thought it was GNU/Linux
I actually did.
So really it's more Linux/GNU?
only if you consider a c compiler and a text editor to be an operating system
I thought GNU also encompassed GNOME and other things.
hm more or less ya
yes some distros use gnome
but gnu nor gnome have a native distro
That makes sense.
GNU was supposed to be an OS but they couldnt finish a kernel in 10 years
RMS had some autistic idea for a really complex kernel made of multiple programs, but says Linus got his made faster because he went with the traditional way of writing 1 program to do the job
So in the end, Linus decides to write an OS, and sees some helpful tools in the GNU project and uses them
Isn't saying that RMS is autistic rather redundant?
programmers love redundancies and recursion
PowerISA fully unpacked means
Performance Optimized With Enhanced Reduced Instruction Set Computer Instruction Set Architecture
Look at this fucker.
Is this not the face of autism?
that fucking gringo accent, man lol
Stallman only calls computer programmers "hackers" because he'd prefer to see them programming for free

We live in the age of patreon.
There's no reason for anybody to work for free if they don't want to, even if they want to contribute to free projects.
my goal in open source is to take and give nothing back <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>
why code for Google and Microsoft, for free?
Charge for the service, not the product
That's my attitude.
will hack DOOMcode for food
I mean, the business model that software companies use makes no fucking sense.
You're charging people to buy a product that's infinitely reproducable.
That makes no damned sense.
Red Hat does it right
i still enjoy a nice piece of affordable full price retail software
The cheap software rack at Target
free programs can be amazing(OBS) or shit(LibreOffice)
