Welcome to /g/ - Consumerist Technology! Come check out our Battlestation threads where children with way too much money and zero talent or skill go out of their way to give corporations hard cash for plastic filled to the brim with RGB LEDs!

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.

Technology board. Some of us actually use computer technology for something other than shitposting on 4chan, which needs something more than a hobbyist OS like New Linux.

On windows I play Yukkuri Diary and on Linux I play simyukkuri.

Just because some people use linux as a hobby does not make it a hobbyist OS. I mean, a lot of major companies use linux for sys admins, servers etc. I personally use it everyday for work.
