I'd like to call out Marsey Is My Waifu (Boring Text Post)

Greetings everyone! :smile:

As you may know, I was in MIMW's top 8 people for about a month and a half. So I logged on today to check my status and see my notifications and I see a MIMW bant-less post. I click on his profile to get the dopamine rush of reading my name and I see this "FREE SPOT, GIVE ME SOMETHING GOOD IN EXCHANGE AND YOU TOO COULD BE ON MY TOP 8". I look through the 8 names over and over again and I don't read a Soren anywhere. I am near my breaking point, so I'd like to ask MIMW to reinstate me on his top 8. I will pay a maximum of 300 Dramacoins to be re-added.

Thanks for reading, Soren

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering 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!
