    Apparently it is an incorrect quotation. See: https://www.gnu.org/gnu/incorrect-quotation.en.html

      Oh, so it actually is GNU operating system. And the thing that I’m using is then Linux operating system, with some GNU tooling. So the quotation is not only overly pedantic, but also wrong.

    lol this is hilarious.

    20y ago I attended a talk by him which I still remember. I completely stopped using windows after that.

    he was on the GNU/Linux name rant back then as well. he also had a huge floppy disk he put on as a halo and paraded around as saint iGNUcious.

    interesting talk and entertaining

    I get that it’s a bit dated and newer more feature-rich tools are available now, but what’s with all the hate for transmission? It was plenty fine until qbitorrent came around.
