@jargon #BSD uses the BSD tools and the BSD kernel, so it's BSD, while GNU/Linux uses the !gnu tools and the !linux kernel - hence the name.
-
@jargon if a file has a space inside that script will fail. you should use : ls | while read line; do tcz "$line".tar.gz "$line"; done
-
@jargon Not exclusively dirs. It created a tar.gz for each item returned by `ls` - including single files. And you said "tar each file" :)
-
@jargon You're saying a dir is a fruit? :D Seriously: try running that script on a big dir - bye bye resources :)
-
@jargon Was that supposed to be in reply to me did you just click reply by accident? Seems an odd response if the former? ;)
-
@jargon You miss that GNU does have its own kernel - and !hurd works: hurd.gnu.org - and !linux wouldn't be free without the #gcc
-
@jargon Linux kernel without GNU!? Do you have ubuntu just with 5 GNU application? I don't think so.even if you have it you can't remove gcc
-
@arnebab What do you call it if you don't start !KDE? And shouldn't X be in there? :) Not sure optional sware counts :)
-
@gordallott sum pple just cant stand to see the name RMS. I posted a link about him wh @jargon decided to troll on leading to chain reaction
-
@jargon Linux is neither a distro nor an operating system. GNU/Linux means it's the GNU system running on top of the kernel Linux
-
@jargon torvalds has been taking credit for work he didn't do, in spite of recognizing early that Linux needed GNU to function
-
@lxoliva nicely put.
-
@jargon I have a documentary "Revolution OS" where he says he agrees with GNU/Linux for a distribution but not for the kernel itself.
-
@arnebab I sometimes imagine an alternate reality where #gnustep running on #hurd is the dominant #freesoftware environment.
-
@jargon take away the people and companies who are running it on top of gnu software are you're left with a very very small percentage.

@theuser that's mere nonsense it belongs as much to !linux as it belongs to netbsd, !openbsd, !freebsd, !opensolaris and !unix per se
-
@arnebab Nope. Your system is Gentoo [GNU/]Linux but you *run* the other stuff. Otherwise where to stop? Do we incl. Plasma, OOo,Firefox?!
-
@janc if you're only talking about embedded devices that may be true
-
@equitas I stop at "which are the major components". Firefox could be included - but I mostly use stuff from the KDE SC, so it's minor.
-
@arnebab If I had more time and a better computer, I'd give this a try in a virtual machine.
-
@jfm Same for me :)
-
@saqeram Jepp. Would be BSD/Linux I'd say.
