From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm just gonna leave this quote as is, so you can think about it.
I have. Engineers, ie workers, designed the hardware. It was not the Capitalists that owned the companies doing the design.
How the hell did you pick lemmy.ml?
Because people aren't one dimensional objects.
And that excuses a total lack of awareness.
Are you saying capitalists and engineers are one in the same? Maybe sometimes, but it's not capital that makes things, it's labor.
It really seems like you didn't have an actual argument, you just wanted to whine and duck away from any pushback.
