No Fair!!! Richard Stallman is not Linux, he is the douche of Linux and he looks the part. At the same time he isn’t just Linux either, he’s just as much BSD and Apple. Now here’s a Linux http://bit.ly/bpWjc4
Richard stallman gave Linus the idea of an open source code OS with GNU. GNU was the first open source code OS but u had to pay and was only written with a few hundred lines of code. Linus kept updating and re-writing Linux until it became what it is today. Richard Stallman is the reason that Linus didn’t just turn into another Bill Gates. RMS should be rightfully named as GNU instead of Linux but i believe that he deserves credit for the idea of open source.
Funny side-note: The Linux guy controls the Windows guy anyway. And the Mac guy would not be able to find out how to click the mouse without the Linux guy. (Which means he’s now also controlled by the Linux guy.)
Linux guy may look dirty. But it’s not because he can’t clean himself up. It’s because, when you control the world, you don’t need to. ^^
And in my eternal effort to replace “fun” with “learning,” the Linux guy in the comic is Richard Stallman, one of the zealotiest of the zealots. To be fair (ah, how to say this without sounding like _too_ big a fanboy), he is also a programming genius, and we owe a great deal of modern computing to him.
Haha, it’s funny to see all the RMS fanbois coming out to explain how RMS HAS NO CLUE ABOUT MARKETING. Fact of the matter is that RMS will not be credited with creating GNU, because GNU doesn’t exist. Can I download GNU? No. Can I run GNU? No. Can I mirror the GNU operating system? No. But I can do all those things for Linux, of which the GNU components are a part, for which RMS and his employees should get credit for contributing to … just as I should get credit for contributing to Linux.
You can download a complete GNU HURD operating system, although it might not run on your computer. You’re speaking about it backwards though, it wasn’t GNU that was made to work with Linux, but Linux that was made to work with GNU. For years before Linux, people would download the GNU tools and run them on for example Sun OS.
Lesseeeeheeeeerrrrre. . . The current crop of windows is loosely based on UNIX; Mac OS is based on UNIX, Linux is based on UNIX, the GNU Herd was originally written for UNIX and most of the BSD is patterned after UNIX. Not to mention Minux, which Linus learned from was UNIX-like. So… You’re looking at three versions of the same friggin thing!
Oh, and Stallman is NOT Linux, he would be offended you didn’t say GNU/Linux and he’s gotten a bit of a reputation of being a douche among the UNIX/Linux community over the last ten years.
Also, this is not a fail. It’s a win for not being the same as all the other Comixes.
The problem is that using Torvalds doesn’t make it funny.
So the poster used Stallman for comedic effect.
I mean, Stallman is funny. He looks like a mix between a run down Santa Claus, a cave hermit, and the Unabomber.
FIRST!!
Awesome…. That must be changed to GNU/Linux! Thats what RMS has been saying all along!!
Or just GNU. Or GNU/Hurd.
I’m fairly certain rms would never connect himself to Linux.
No, he’s a GNU/Linux.

Thats not Linux it’s GNU(the person is Richard Stallman). And if you don’t know the difference, than up the shut fuck!
Richard Stallman ist not Linux, he is GNU!!!
AHAHAHAHAHAHA! WIN!!!! Total awesome.
That is awesome! Great job!

No he’s not. Stallman is a GNU, not a “Linux”.
Hah, that’s great!

A class in marketing wouldn’t hurt, though.
Neither would instruction on decent grooming.
FWIW, the guy pictured is not a Linux. He’s a GNU, maybe a GNU/Linux. He’d be fairly offended if you said he was a “Linux”.
Why do they keep calling the Windows computer a PC? My brother runs Linux, Mac OSX, and Windows 7 on his ^.^
Unix, the best OS ever
That’s a fail. He is not a linux, he is a GNU. Ha!
if you’re going to pick a person for “I’m a Linux”, how hard is it to think of, you know, Linus, the guy it’s named after?

Fail or not, at least it’s not another Reaction Guys or Twilight Comixed.
That’s.. interesting

OS X is not based on UNIX, it _is_ UNIX.
This is a total ripoff of an old Dueling Analogs strip.

Not really. The one you posted is funny. The one here, meh.
OSX is based on freeBSD anyway lol

Gentoo?))
Whether or not he’s a GNU or a Linux, this is still funny.
PC and Mac are computers… Linux is a software program. This is fail.
STFU nerds!!!!
Linux is allways a girl in ads.
Just sayin’
This is funny *because* it calls Stallman a Linux. It’s like lolgrammar.

I call it a semantical ‘fail’.
A mac is a PC (hardware), and Linux is an operating system.
Its like “I’m a fruit. I’m an apple. And I’m a seed.”
