I'd just like to interject...

IRL Trolling of a radio talk show using /g/ copypasta. You can get whole show here,

I take no credit for this video or the image displayed. The intellectual property displayed here belongs to its respective parties.

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.

People would take Stallman more seriously if he didn't look like a complete hobo.

@harizotoh7 When referring to GNU, Rms wants you to pronounce it as a hard a G.

[harizotoh7]

It's pronounced G-new? I have always been pronouncing it with a silent G. Also, the copypasta IS relevant to the show, so it's not necessarily "trolling". More like a community injoke is read on the air. .

To avoid spreading unnecessary bias and confusion, it is best to adopt a firm policy not to speak or even think in terms of “intellectual property”.
