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.

Book is bad because I dont like the cover
If a math book has 1+1=3 on its cover, I will judge it.
and which math book has that? idk how making up shit helps u here. and it's not even a good comparison, misinformation vs some ascii art. I hope those real programmers are more mature
Analogies are hard
Dont make them then, I showed how that one was shit in 2 different ways
What kind of Linux distro has ASCII art on the desktop by default? you're making stuff up
Analogies are made to be made up
Never claimed that take your strawman elsewhere thanks
The things we are comparing are a math book with a 1+1=3 on its cover and an article with a thumbnail of a linux desktop with ascii art on the background. If we ditch the default talk, then I can also just plaster a 1+1=3 on my math book and it won't be misinformation
So you think mentioning both ascii art and a linux distro somehow counts as misinformation?
Well, its at the same level as 1+1=3 and a math book. It's not claimed to be truth, but it uses a very inappropriate pop-appropriation to try and grab your attention
using = literally indicates a claim, showing some art does not, you just assume shit and claim it as reality. I guess u also believe showing kali logo while not explicitly mentioning it in the article counts as " a very inappropriate pop-appropriation "? Get a grip
Showing 1+1=3 on a math book cover is also art
It may not be that on the nose, but I've seen more than one technical textbook with three meshed gears on the front.
