That kind of shit is why I run GNU, and so should everybody else.
You don't run gnu; you probably run Linux. In the same sense, you don't mention how you ride the tires to work but you probably mention riding a bicycle, bus or car. You go to see art, not the tools used to create it, and this is why van gogh's art is on display and not the brushes he used to such great effect.
Keep it in perspective no matter how hard the feet-picker wants to distract you.
No, I run GNU. I don't give a fuck whether the kernel is Linux or HURD, but I do care that as much of the system as possible is copyleft instead of merely permissive.
Well this whole exchange was definitely the dumbest pedantry I've seen today.
Well done.
