I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
guh new
like g'day but g'new
a silent G like in lasagna
"new"
Like grew
G New
DUH-jent
Gee Ehn You
With a hard G, like GNOME.

fuck you, nigger
Ñu
Eat shit, you dumb faggot.
GHANUU
g'nu as in nu-male
I’m not a gWindows, I’m not a gMacOS, I’m a GNU... and you’ve been GNU’d!

>they rarely say guh nuw
>they just say linux
>they mean ubuntu
a couple weeks ago in one of my software engineering clases, some guy not only pronounced gnu as gee ehn you, but he also pronounced linus as linn iss
What’s linus?
Linus Torvalds. Host of Linus Tech Tips and wrote Git, among other things.
at least they know about FOSS.
When I say linux to my friend they think I'm talking about some kind of drugs
'jnu'
If someone used the term "open source" around me I would beat the fuck out of them. Suckers have to know.
GANOO SLASH LINOOKS
why does tech have so many retarded way to say stuff
I cringe at
"gah noo"
"gooey"
"gah nome"
and etc
Rhymes with "poo"
Hackers of software are also hackers of language.
wrong
right
right but in a gayer way
>silent g in lasagna
U wot m8?
Do you not know what a hard G is, you fat faggot?
Ñu, vato
how do you pronounce gif
gn = ñ
lasaña
Гнy eбaть
I hope this is a retard bait. We should call it GNU/Linux because something like 15% of the code in a Linux system is made by GNU?
Would you call it Busybox/Linux if you are using Alpine? No because it's fucking retarded.
To people actually say the last one
Linux is less than 4%.
This desu
Linux works fine without GNU, why don't they just finish their kernel and call it GNU/Hurd?
>Would you call it Busybox/Linux if you are using Alpine?
No, because in either case I'm merely referring to a Linux-based OS, which is why I call it Linux. It's the one common component
That already exists. Why isn't Linux finished yet? They still seem to update it.
By finish he meant get it to a functional state. Does Hurd even have audio support yet?
Why do you need audio?
To make sound with my computer. You know, music, voice, notifications, etc.
guh - nu
PC speakers exist.
g'n'oo, but i guess thats too hard for americans
Like the spics, ñú.
Gahhhhnooğğğuuuu
gnaa
> Ñu
Stallman actually okay'd that one.
No shit, and your kernel needs audio support to utilize them
Based spicposters.
Yeah that wasn't meant for you
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, Systemd/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, Systemd plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning system made useful by the Systemd suite, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of Systemd every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of Systemd which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically Systemd, developed by the Lennart Poettering.

No, let the BIOS handle it.
But what if I pronounce GNOME like G-GNOME
Stop baiting faggot. Nobody is ever gonna use garbage Hurd
Eat a bullet.
JEE EN YOU
That's such a retarded insult. Just say kys next time
I'm not a mutt.
no
>gahnoo
do you also call IBM "eebem"
IBM is an initialism, GNU is an acronym.
jee in you
Exactly like the animal
isn't the condition for "acronym" that it has to constitute a word by itself? GNU doesn't look much like a pronounceable word in the english language, maybe in spanish if you change GN with a Ñ, then you get pic which is also the logo/mascot
It's a word. It is the Anglicised form of some African name for the wildebeest.
the fuck
ñu
why the fuck would i be bothered with that? why didn't the fat fack make whole os by himseld like steve jobs and bill gates did instead of taking credit for other peoples work??? i will never call it gnu/linux. its just LINUX you communist fat fack
гaнyy/линyх eптa
>communist
>wants you to be free
/'lJ.nəks/
yes
can confirm, i'm italian
there is no "Ñ" in italian...
it's pronounced "les-zag-nuh"
zitto frocio
It's pronounced "Linux". With silent G, LIN right before NU and and a final X.
Gahnoo
GeNiUs
Gnoooo like awoooo!
ghanew
people who say Gee En You are cia niggers
It's pronounced GNU
>gee-nome
if you say GNOME like genome you are wrong. the GN in GNOME is pronounced like the GN in GNU
