Linux

Linux users, as it seems to know that people who are better than you do on the computer? New Windows users are better than you. They understand, better equipment, they better understand the basic principles of computer science, they know how to work better than the network. They benefit there file systems (NTFS), including losses in order to undarfy the Windows operating system because you can choose to FS, because they are "Active Directory" At this point, you rationalize, "Well, I only know that Linux, Linux expert, so I should be!" Only one thing automatically expert faculty Linux Windows completely how or seem to know how.

Back to /g/.

no stay! I had a hearty chuckle!

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.

I'd like to deinterject:
Gnu Linux=Gnu Not Unix Linux=Gnu Not Unix !=Linus Unix

FUCK YOU FAGGOT EAT SHIT AND DIE

You forgot to mention that the term "WC" has been suggested for computers running Microsoft Windows

LINUX Is Not UniX.

Billy: Hey dad, whats an operating system supposed to do?
Dad: Well Billy, an operating system is supposed to provide an environment where many different kinds of software can run well.
Billy: But Linux, OSX, and Windows 7 do that well! How do I decide?
Dad: Well Billy, you have to now assess what kind of software you're going to be using. Which OS looks the most appropriate now?
Billy: Well, OSX is good for graphic design, but nearly all of its programs also run on Windows 7 or have comparable software also for Windows 7. Linux has a lot of great software, but just can't really compete really with the huge libraries of software for Macs and Windows.
But in terms of number of software available, Windows 7 seems to have the most. It also runs new and upcoming games, and also runs classic PC games while XP is left in the dust without DX10.
Dad: There you have it son, Windows 7, which is an operating system, runs FUCKING EVERYTHING!!!!
SO STOP BITCHING UNTIL THE OTHER OPERATING SYSTEMS CAN COMPETE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why choose, when you can have everything? (Virtualization)

Go back to /g/ with your FPS and gaemslolxD, this is /prog/, and don't come back until you're OS becomes good for programming.

Ah, flamewar! What there is not to like about it?

It doesn't run Xmonad.

Linux is supposed to be for programmers, but it doesn't provide any tools for managing large projects like Visual Studio.

Explain that

Oh, and of course, ed(1).

I thought Linux zionism was a /g/ thing

Not standard.

>>32

And visual studio is?

>>33
No, but UNIX® does provide standard tools for programming.

Complete shite.
