Face of Linux right there. I imagine him getting creepy close and trying to start a conversation with "what are gnu up to?".

shitface posted:the most certainly are not. shave that greybeard off right now, you don't deserve it. xfree86 to x.org had to be the most painful fork i ever went through with desktop linux. sound not working is one thing. that one weirde video acceleration they didn't want you to know about is another. not loving starting X randomly when you're trying to get some work done is unforgivable xfree86 development ground to a halt after the "fork." it's not much of a fork in the road if one path ends after six feet. if anything Xorg was the end of a fork: XFree86 forked from the X.org codebase in the early 90s. X.org development stopped around that time. when XFree86 became a difficult project structure, devs formed a new X.org organization shitface posted:not directly, at least not by any distro that counts. sighs of relief all round when they got alsa to play multiple inputs to mix through alsa without loving over oss and then they "fixed"* it with pulse because... ? oss is still used by freebsd and solaris (all five users)

I mean, I don't really care what type of terrible ideology you care for, but if you're going to register a trademark, you should probably just make sure that somebody else hasn't registered it for the same usage first. Groupon is too incompetent to run a ponzi scheme properly, I don't think they put any effort towards their products.

When you register a trademark for use as an OS you should actually use that trademark for an OS. It wouldn;t take very long to clone ubuntu and change all the branding to say gnome, just do that and ill be happy.

X has been the source of a lot of awfulness ever since the turn of the century pretty much which is why it's being replaced by Wayland And a Wayland compositor that renders to an RDP stream is still a far better remote application experience than X has been for any even remotely recent application. For instance, you can do a "screen" like detach and reattach without doing any godawful hackery XWayland gives you back compat for apps that haven't been ported yet X really has no reason to exist except as a legacy technology any more

i still call it genome pronunciation wise even though i know better because i refuse to say the "Guh-Nuh" sound like in GNU or gnome the available desktop theme. i just think its an extremely awkward thing to say out loud. don't get me wrong, i love GNU tools and use their versions whenever i can generally because many of them are good, compared to the stock equivilants on some linux/unixes... but im not going to say "GNU Linux" just like i wouldnt say "tree wood kleenex"
